Study of ATX-01 in Participants with DM1

Phase 1
Recruiting
Conditions
Myotonic Dystrophy 1
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT06300307
Lead Sponsor
ARTHEx Biotech S.L.
Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test ATX-01 in participants with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). The main question it aims to answer is if ATX-01 is safe and well tolerated. The trial will compare the safety and tolerability of ATX-01 and a matching placebo.

There will be a single-ascending dose part of the trial and a multiple-ascending dose part. In the single-ascending dose, participants will receive one dose of ATX-01 or placebo. In the multiple-ascending dose part, participants will receive three doses of ATX-01 or placebo.

ATX-01 is a novel anti-miR (synthetic single stranded oligonucleotide) that inhibits a microRNA called miR-23b.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of adverse eventsUp to 120 days

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of ATX-01 in adult participants with DM1

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of ATX-01Up to 48 hours post-dose
Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of ATX-01Up to 48 hours post-dose
Video hand opening timeChange from baseline up to 120 days

To evaluate the efficacy of ATX-01 on myotonia in participants with DM1

Change from baseline in ankle dorsiflexion strength by quantitative myometryChange from baseline up to 120 days

To evaluate the effects of ATX-01 in participants with DM1 on ankle dorsiflexion strength

Change from baseline in Impact on Activities of Daily Living questionnaire item scoresChange from baseline up to 120 days

The Impact on Activities of Daily Living questionnaire is a 7-item patient-reported outcome designed to evaluate the impact of ATX-01 on activities of daily living in participants with DM1.

Incidence of clinically significant changes in laboratory assessments, electrocardiograms (ECGs), vital signs, suicidal ideation and behaviorUp to 120 days

To further evaluate the safety and tolerability of ATX-01 in adult participants with DM1
