About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Adaptive-Design Study of Intracisternal Adenoassociated Viral Vector Serotype rh.10 Carrying the Human β-Galactosidase cDNA for Treatment of GM1 Gangliosidosis

LYS-GM101 is a gene therapy for GM1 gangliosidosis intended to deliver a functional copy of the GLB1 gene to the central nervous system. This study will assess, in a 2-stage adaptive-design, the safety and efficacy of treatment in subjects with infantile GM1 gangliosidosis.

Read the detailed description

GM1 gangliosidosis is a fatal autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the GLB1 gene leading to accumulation of GM1 ganglioside in neurons and progressive neurodegeneration. There are three pediatric subtypes: early infantile, late infantile and juvenile. This is an interventional, multicenter, single-arm, 2-stage adaptive design study of LYS-GM101 for which the first stage (Stage 1) is for safety evaluation (FIH) and the second stage (Stage 2) will establish efficacy as compared to the natural history of the disease. The participants with infantile GM1 gangliosidosis will receive a single dose of LYS-GM101 by intracisternal injection. After a two-year evaluation period (main part of the study), each participant will be followed for an additional three-year long-term follow-up period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing LYS-GM101 in people with GM1 Gangliosidosis, run by LYSOGENE at 3 sites in 3 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 3 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States, France, United Kingdom. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The clinical trial is closed due to Lysogene's cessation of activities. This study closure is not due to safety reasons.). 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?

Stage 1: Physical examination by body system (time frame: Up to 6 months (multiple visits)). The study lists 10 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04273269, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Jun 2023.
