About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Multinational, Extension Study to Evaluate the Long Term Safety and Efficacy of Intracerebroventricular AX 250 in Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB (MPS IIIB, Sanfilippo Syndrome Type B)

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of AX 250 administered to subjects with MPS IIIB by an implanted ICV reservoir and catheter and to evaluate the impact of long-term AX 250 treatment on cognitive function in patients with MPS IIIB as assessed by developmental quotient (DQ).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AX 250Drug

    Chimeric fusion of recombinant human alpha-N-acetylglucosaminidase and truncated human insulin-like growth factor 2 (rhNAGLU-IGF2)

Study groups in NCT03784287
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AX 250ExperimentalAll subjects will receive AX 250 at the MTTD established in 250-201, 300mg administered weekly by ICV infusion that will continue for up to 240 weeks.
Receives: Drug: AX 250

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluate the Long-term safety and tolerability of AX 250 administered in up to 33 subjects with MPS IIIB by assessing the number of participants with abnormal clinical laboratory values and/or Adverse Events related to the treatment

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

  2. Evaluating the impact of long-term AX 250 treatment on cognitive function in up to 33 patients with MPS IIIB as assessed by developmental quotient (DQ)

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Evaluate the impact of long-term AX 250 treatment on cognitive function in up to 33 patients with MPS IIIB as assessed by age equivalent score (AEq)

    Age equivalent score is derived from neurocognitive tests (Bayley Scales of Infant Development, 3rd edition OR Kaufman Assessment battery for Children, 2nd edition)

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

  2. Characterize immunogenicity as measured by IgE levels, formation of anti-AX 250, IGF1 and IGF2 antibodies in Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum.

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

  3. Evaluate the impact of long-term AX 250 treatment on Heparan sulfate (HS) levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), serum and urine.

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

  4. Evaluate the impact of long-term AX 250 treatment on brain structure assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

  5. Evaluate the impact of long-term AX 250 treatment on adaptive function derived from the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, 2nd edition (VABS-II)

    VABS-II is a measure of adaptive behavior and can be used to assess the level of subjects' functioning at various ages. Scale ranges from 0-4 (0 meaning never performs the behavior, and 4 meaning almost always performs the behavior independently)

    Measured: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AX 250 in people with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IIIB and MPS III B, run by Allievex Corporation at 8 sites in 7 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States, Colombia, Germany, Spain, Taiwan and 2 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluate the Long-term safety and tolerability of AX 250 administered in up to 33 subjects with MPS IIIB by assessing the number of participants with abnormal clinical laboratory values and/or Adverse Events related to the treatment (time frame: Entire study period, up to 240 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jan 2023.
