A Multinational, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Safety of Venglustat in Late-onset GM2

Phase 3
Terminated
Conditions
Tay-Sachs Disease
Sandhoff Disease
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04221451
Lead Sponsor
Genzyme, a Sanofi Company
Brief Summary

Primary Objectives:

Primary population (adult participants with late-onset GM2 gangliosidosis): To assess the efficacy and pharmacodynamics (PD) of daily oral dosing of venglustat when administered over a 104-week period

Secondary population (participants with juvenile/adolescent late-onset GM2 gangliosidosis, GM1 gangliosidosis, saposin C deficiency, sialidosis type 1 or juvenile/adult galactosialidosis): To assess PD response (plasma and CSF GL-1 biomarker and disease specific biomarkers) of venglustat when administered once daily over a 104-week period

Secondary Objectives:

Primary population:

* To assess the PD of daily oral dosing of venglustat and the effect of venglustat on selected performance test and scale over a 104-week period

* To determine the safety and tolerability of venglustat when administered orally once daily over a 104-week period

* To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of venglustat in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)

Secondary population:

* To assess the effect of venglustat on selected performance tests and scale over a 104-week period

* To determine the safety and tolerability of venglustat when administered once daily over a 104-week period

* To assess the PK of venglustat in plasma and CSF

* To assess the acceptability and palatability of the venglustat tablet

Detailed Description

The total duration is up to approximately 223 weeks, including a 60-day screening period, a 104-week primary analysis treatment period, a 104-week open-label extension treatment period and a 6-week post-treatment safety observation period.
