RGX-121 Gene Therapy in Children 5 Years of Age and Over With MPS II (Hunter Syndrome)

January 24, 2025 updated by: REGENXBIO Inc.

A Phase I/II Multicenter, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacodynamics of RGX-121 in Children 5 Years of Age and Older With MPS II (Hunter Syndrome)

RGX-121 is a gene therapy which is designed to deliver a functional copy of the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene to the central nervous system. This study is a phase I/II study to determine whether RGX-121 is safe, well tolerated, and potentially effective in children five years of age and over who have severe MPS II.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

MPS II is a rare X-linked recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) gene. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant idursulfase (ELAPRASE®) is the only approved product for the treatment of Hunter syndrome; however, ERT as currently administered does not cross the blood brain barrier and is therefore unable to address the unmet need in MPS II patients with CNS (neurocognition and behavior) involvement. RGX-121 is designed to deliver a healthy gene to cells in the CNS and iduronate-2-sulfatase (I2S) may then be secreted by transduced cells which may cross-correct non-transduced cells by taking up the functional enzyme. This is a Phase I/II, multicenter, open-label, single arm study of RGX-121. Approximately 6 children (≥ 5 years to < 18 years of age) who have severe (neuronopathic) MPS II could be enrolled into a single dose cohort and will receive a single dose of RGX-121 administered by IC or ICV injection. Safety will be the primary focus for the initial 24 weeks after treatment (primary study period). Following completion of the primary study period, participants will continue to be assessed (safety and efficacy) for up to a total of 104 weeks following treatment with RGX-121.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

5 years to 17 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No
