A Study With NVC-001 in Patients With LMNA-related Dilated Cardiomyopathy (SUNBEAM-LMNA)

July 2, 2026 updated by: Nuevocor Pte. Ltd.

A Phase 1/2, First-in-Human, Open-Label, Multicenter, Single-Dose Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy of NVC-001, a Novel Adeno-Associated Virus (Serotype 9) Vector Expressing a Dominant Negative SUN1 Transgene, in Patients With LMNA-Related Dilated Cardiomyopathy (SUNBEAM-LMNA)

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NVC-001 in adults with LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy (LMNA-DCM). The study will also assess exploratory measures of efficacy.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label study of NVC-001 in adults with LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy (LMNA-DCM). The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NVC-001. Secondary and exploratory objectives include characterization of pharmacodynamic effects and assessment of preliminary efficacy.
