Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Late-onset Pompe Disease Gene Therapy Drug

Phase 1
Recruiting
Conditions
Pompe Disease (Late-onset)
Interventions
Genetic: GC301
Registration Number
NCT06391736
Lead Sponsor
GeneCradle Inc
Brief Summary

This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of GC301 adeno-associated virus vector expressing codon-optimized human acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) as potential gene therapy for Pompe disease. Patients diagnosed with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) who are ≥ 6 years old will be studied.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percent Predicted Upright Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)(Phase 2)52 weeks

Change from baseline in percentage of predicted FVC measured by pulmonary function testing

Number of Participants With Adverse Events52 weeks

Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate based on protocol-specific adverse events (Phase 1)within 30 days after treatment
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum Expiratory Pressure (MEP)52 weeks

Change from baseline in MEP measured by pulmonary function testing

Muscle Status Testing - Quick Motor Function Test (QMFT) Measure52 weeks

Measurement of functional motor abilities using the Quick Motor Function Test (QMFT) will be performed and the results compared with baseline.

Quality of life evaluation: 12-item short form health survey (SF-12) for LOPD participants52 weeks

SF-12, a 12 item-questionnaire, used to assess health-related quality of life in participants aged \>=18 years at screening/baseline. SF-12 consisted of 12 items, which were categorized into eight domains (subscales) of functioning and well-being: physical functioning, role-physical, role emotional, mental health, bodily pain, general health, vitality and social functioning, with each domain score ranged from 0 (poor health) to 100 (better health), higher scores indicated good health condition. These eight domains were further summarized into 2 summary scores, physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS). The score range for each of these 2 summary scores was from 0 (poor health) to 100 (better health), higher scores indicated a better health-related quality of life.

The viral load of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector52 weeks

To assess the change of AAV vector copy numbers within 52 weeks after administration.

6-Minute Walk Test52 weeks

Change from baseline in the distance walked in the 6 minute walk test (6MWT), which is a standardized assessment of how far an individual can walk on a hard, flat surface in a period of 6 minutes

Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (MIP)52 weeks

Change from baseline in MIP measured by pulmonary function testing

Occurrence of immune response against AAV capsid annd GAA transgene52 weeks
Time needed for non-invasive ventilatory support52 weeks

Change from baseline in time duration that needed for non-invasive ventilatory support
