Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacodynamic, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetic Study of DYNE-251 in Participants With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Amenable to Exon 51 Skipping (DELIVER)

March 12, 2024 updated by: Dyne Therapeutics

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose Study Assessing Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacodynamics, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetics of DYNE-251 Administered to Participants With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Amenable to Exon 51 Skipping

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and dystrophin protein levels in muscle tissue following multiple intravenous (IV) doses of DYNE-251 in participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) amenable to exon 51 skipping.

The study consists of 3 periods: a multiple-ascending dose (MAD) / placebo-controlled period (24 weeks), an open-label period (24 weeks) and a long-term extension period (96 weeks).

Time Frame: Baseline, up to Week 145
The NSAA is a 17-item functional scale used to measure functional motor abilities in ambulant participants with DMD and monitor progression of the disease and treatment effects in each of the items. The items are graded on a 3-point scale: 0=unable to achieve independently, 1=modified method but achieves goal with no physical assistance, and 2=normal, no obvious modification of activity. Total score range is 0 to 34.

The PUL scale is a validated tool specifically designed for assessing upper limb function in ambulant and non-ambulant individuals with DMD. It includes an entry item to define the broad starting functional level and 22 items subdivided into 3 areas indicative of upper limb strength as, shoulder level, midlevel, and distal level. The global score is a combination of the 3 areas and ranges from 0 to 42. Lower scores indicate higher disability.
