About this study

Official title: An Open, Non-controlled, Parallel, Ascending Multiple-dose, Multicenter Study to Assess Safety and Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of SOBI003 in Pediatric MPS IIIA Patients

MPS IIIA, also known as Sanfilippo A, is an inherited lysosomal storage disease (LSD). MPS IIIA is caused by a deficiency in sulfamidase, one of the enzymes involved in the lysosomal degradation of the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) heparan sulfate (HS). The natural course of MPS IIIA is characterized by devastating neurodegeneration with initially mild somatic involvement. The aims of the present study is to assess the dose related safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of SOBI003, a chemically modified recombinant human (rh) Sulfamidase developed as an enzyme replacement therapy (ERT).

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, non-controlled, parallel, sequential ascending multiple-dose, multicenter study to assess the dose related safety, tolerability, PK and PD of SOBI003 in pediatric MPS IIIA patients. Patients between 1 and 6 years of age who have not received previous treatment for MPS IIIA with an ERT, gene- or stem cell therapy will be eligible to participate in the study. The study is planned to consist of 3 dose cohorts, each comprising 3 patients. Treatment initiations will be staggered within each cohort in order to be able to observe, interpret and treat possible adverse reactions. SOBI003 is administered as weekly i.v. infusions over a period of 24 weeks. Upon completion of the 24-week treatment period with satisfactory tolerability, the patient is offered to receive continued SOBI003 treatment by participation in an extension study.

    Quotient between age equivalent score and age, 0 - 100%, where high values are desirable. The age equivalent score represent the age of the typical and normal individual who would achieve the same result as the one who was tested.

    The age equivalent scores are assessed by the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development®, third edition cognitive subtest or the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, Second edition.

    The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition is an individually administered test designed to assess developmental functioning of infants and toddlers. The Bayley-III assesses development in five areas: cognitive, language, motor, social-emotional, and adaptive behavior.

    The Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) is a clinical instrument for assessing cognitive development.

    Measured: Week 24

  17. Change From Baseline in Age-equivalence Score

    The age equivalent score represent the age in months of the typical and normal individual who would achieve the same result as the one who was tested.

    The age equivalent scores are assessed by the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development®, third edition cognitive subtest or the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, Second edition.

    The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition is an individually administered test designed to assess developmental functioning of infants and toddlers. The Bayley-III assesses development in five areas: cognitive, language, motor, social-emotional, and adaptive behavior.

    The Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) is a clinical instrument for assessing cognitive development.

    Measured: Week 24

  18. Change From Baseline in Age-equivalence Score as Assessed by VABS-II

    The age equivalent score represent the age in months of the typical and normal individual who would achieve the same result as the one who was tested.

    The age equivalent scores are assessed by Vineland™ Adaptive Behavior Scales, Expanded Interview Form, Second edition (VABS-II). The Vineland is designed to measure adaptive behavior of individuals from birth to age 90.

    The Vineland-II contains 5 domains each with 2-3 subdomains. The main domains are: Communication, Daily Living Skills, Socialization, Motor Skills, and Maladaptive Behavior.

    Measured: Week 24

  19. Change From Baseline in Gray Matter Volume

    Grey matter contains most of the brain's neuronal cell bodies.

The gray matter volume will be measured by volumetric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

    Measured: Week 24

  20. Change From Baseline in Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL™) Total Score

    Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL™) is a modular approach to measuring health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in healthy children and adolescents and those with acute and chronic health conditions. Lower scores indicate better functioning. Min score = 0, and max score = 144.

    Measured: Week 24

  21. Change From Baseline in PedsQL™ Family Impact Module Total Score

    Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL™) is a modular approach to measuring health-related quality of life in healthy children and adolescents and those with acute and chronic health conditions. The measure includes a scale, from where the categorical score "4", "3", "2", "1", and "0" was reversed and linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale to 4=0, 3=25, 2=50, 1=75 and 0=100, where 100 = minimum and 0 = maximum. The Total Score is the sum of all 36 items in the test divided by the number of items answered. Higher scores indicate better functioning.

    Measured: Week 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing SOBI003 in people with Sanfilippo Syndrome Type A (MPS IIIA), run by Swedish Orphan Biovitrum at 4 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 6 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, Germany, Turkey (Türkiye). 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 22 Apr 2021). 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 as Measured by Adverse Events Frequencies (by Type and Severity) (time frame: From start of first infusion up to Week 24). 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 NCT03423186, 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 19 Nov 2021.
