What is being measured

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

  1. Safety: Number of Patients With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    All TEAEs reported or observed during the study, including TEAEs resulting from concurrent illnesses, reactions to concurrent medications, or progression of disease states

    Measured: Day 1 to end of study (up to Day 182 [32 mg cohort]/ Day 210 [all other cohorts])

  2. Safety: Severity of Adverse Events

    Number of patients who experienced a severe treatment-emergent adverse event. Severity was evaluated using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0

    Measured: Day 1 to end of study (up to Day 182 [32 mg cohort]/ Day 210 [all other cohorts])

  3. Safety: Number of Patients With Serious TEAEs

    A serious TEAE is defined as any event that results in death, is immediately life threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect not present at Prescreening.

    Measured: Day 1 to end of study (up to Day 182 [32 mg cohort]/ Day 210 [all other cohorts])

  4. Safety and Tolerability: Number of Patients Who Withdraw Due to TEAEs

    Measured: Day 1 to end of study (up to Day 182 [32 mg cohort]/ Day 210 [all other cohorts])

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax of WVE-120101 in plasma

    Measured: Patients participating in Period 1 (SAD) had PK samples collected on Day 1 predose through 24-48 hours postdose. Patients participating in Period 2 (MAD) had PK samples collected predose on Day 112 and through 4 hours postdose.

  2. PK: Time of Occurrence of Cmax (Tmax)

    tmax of WVE-120101 in plasma

    Measured: Patients participating in Period 1 (SAD) had PK samples collected on Day 1 predose through 24-48 hours postdose. Patients participating in Period 2 (MAD) had PK samples collected predose on Day 112 and through 4 hours postdose.

  3. PK: Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUClast)

    AUClast from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration of WVE-120101 in plasma

    Measured: Patients participating in Period 1 (SAD) had PK samples collected on Day 1 predose through 24-48 hours postdose. Patients participating in Period 2 (MAD) had PK samples collected predose on Day 112 and through 4 hours postdose.

  4. PK: Terminal Elimination Half Life

    Terminal elimination half life of WVE-120101 in plasma (t1/2)

    Measured: Patients participating in Period 1 (SAD) had PK samples collected on Day 1 predose through 24-48 hours postdose. Patients participating in Period 2 (MAD) had PK samples collected predose on Day 112 and through 4 hours postdose.

  5. Pharmacodynamics

    Percentage change from baseline in concentration of mutant huntingtin (mHTT) protein in CSF

    Measured: Day 1 to last observation - up to Day 140 (32 mg cohort) or Day 196 (all other cohorts)

  6. Clinical Effects: Total Functional Capacity (TFC)

    Percentage change from baseline to the last measured time point in the Total Functional Capacity score, administered as part of the Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale (UHDRS). Total Functional Capacity is scored 13 (normal) to 0 (severe disability).

    Measured: Day 1 to last observation - up to Day 140 (32 mg cohort) or Day 196 (all other cohorts)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing WVE-120101 in people with Huntington's Disease, run by Wave Life Sciences USA, Inc. at 21 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 4 inclusion and 5 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 10 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in Australia, Canada, Denmark, United Kingdom, France 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Feb 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Safety: Number of Patients With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: Day 1 to end of study (up to Day 182 [32 mg cohort]/ Day 210 [all other cohorts])). The study lists 4 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 NCT03225833, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 10 Feb 2022.
