This is the first study of AMT-130 in patients with early manifest HD and is designed to establish safety and proof-of-concept (PoC). CT-AMT-130-01 is a Phase I/II, randomized, multicenter, dose escalation, double-blind, imitation surgery, first-in-human (FIH) study.
A Phase I/II, Randomized, Double-blind, Sham Control Study to Explore Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy Signals of Multiple Ascending Doses of Striatally-Administered rAAV5-miHTT Total Huntingtin Gene (HTT) Lowering Therapy (AMT-130) in Early Manifest Huntington Disease
AMT-130 is an investigational, single administration gene therapy intended to modify the disease course for HD. Preclinical studies have shown that AMT-130 lowers huntingtin protein and is associated with decreased progression of Huntington disease signs in animal models. This 5-year trial consists of a blinded 12-month Core Study Period to evaluate the safety and potential impact of AMT-130 on disease progression and an unblinded 4-year Long-Term Period with periodic follow-up visits to evaluate the safety of AMT-130 and disease progression in treated individuals. Following completion of the 12-month blinded post treatment follow-up period, subjects will be individually unblinded. Once the crossover has been activated after review of data by the DSMB and FDA, subjects randomized to the imitation (sham) procedure who continue to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria (including adequate MRI striatal volumes) will be allowed to crossover to receive AMT-130 treatment.
