A Study to Investigate the Safety and Pharmacodynamics of a Single Intrathecal Injection (IT) of INS1202 in Participants With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) (ARMOR)

May 19, 2026 updated by: Insmed Gene Therapy LLC

A Phase 1, Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-Finding Study to Investigate the Safety and Pharmacodynamics of a Single Intrathecal Injection of INS1202 in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

The primary objective of this dose-finding study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacodynamics of single dose of INS1202 via IT administration in participants ≥ 18 to <80 years of age with ALS who carry superoxide dismutase type 1 (SOD1) mutations or harbor no known ALS-related genetic mutation.

Description

Key Inclusion Criteria: -

  • Participant with body mass index (BMI) ≥18 kilograms per square meter (kg/m^2).
  • Participant with symptomatic ALS as diagnosed by Gold Coast diagnostic criteria.
  • Sporadic ALS cohorts: Negative testing for known monogenic mutations associated with familial ALS.
  • SOD1-ALS (Cohorts 2 and 3 only): Confirmed pathogenic SOD1 mutation, with negative testing for other genetic mutations associated with familial ALS.
  • Any polymorphism or mutation in the coding region will require additional review by the Sponsor to determine compatibility with the study intervention.
  • Baseline ALSFRS-R ≥ 24.
  • ALS disease duration ≤ 42 months.

Key Exclusion Criteria: -

  • Previous treatment for ALS with cellular or gene therapies.
  • Any investigational medication or treatment (for ALS or other condition).

Note: Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
