Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • Men only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male subjects with either a confirmed diagnosis of AMN by genetic testing (mutation in the ATP binding cassette subfamily D (ABCD1 gene)) or a family history of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) together with an elevation in VLCFA obtained from overnight fasting plasma sample at Screening Visit (V1).
  • Age: ≥ 18 to ≤ 65 years at informed consent signature.
  • Normal brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or brain MRI showing non-specific abnormalities that can be observed in AMN subjects without signs of cerebral form of ALD (C-ALD). MRI must be performed within 6 months prior to V2. If there is no available brain MRI within this period, a brain MRI must be performed before V2

Who cannot join

  • Any progressive neurological disease other than AMN.
  • Arrested or progressing C-ALD as defined by cerebral lesions (except for non-specific abnormalities that can be observed in AMN subjects).
  • Prior receipt of an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant or gene therapy

About this study

Official title: An Open-label Phase 2a Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamic of PXL065 Parameters After 12 Weeks of Treatment in Male Subjects With Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) Form of X-linked Adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD or ALD)

A randomized open-label Phase 2a study to assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic parameters of PXL065 after 12 weeks of treatment in male subjects with adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN).

Read the detailed description

A randomized open-label Phase 2a study to assess the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic parameters of PXL065 after 12 weeks of treatment in male subjects with adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN).

There will be a total of 3 study periods.

  • Screening period of a maximum of 4 weeks prior to the open-label Treatment Period (Baseline Visit - V2). This period can be exceptionally extended for 2 weeks
  • Open-label Treatment Period of 12 weeks
  • Follow-up Period of 2 weeks after the last intake of the treatment (V5-End of Treatment Visit (EoT)).

During the treatment period, very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA) will be assessed every 4 weeks, to evaluate the kinetics of the PXL065 effect. Neurofilament light (NfL) will be assessed after 8 and 12 weeks of treatment, and other exploratory biomarkers after 12 weeks of treatment. A follow up period will allow continued monitoring the subjects' safety and evaluation of the kinetics of the 2 main biomarkers (VLCFA and NfL) at 2 weeks after the last intake of the treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PXL065 in people with ALD (Adrenoleukodystrophy), run by Poxel SA.

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 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Pharmacokinetic (time frame: Week 4). 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 16 Dec 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
