Part A of this trial evaluated the safety and tolerability of a single surgical administration procedure in one or both ear(s) with one of two dose levels of AAVAnc80-hOTOF (LY888891) and evaluated the Akouos Delivery Device, together with the Precision Delivery Mechanism (as applicable), to safely achieve the intended product performance.
Part B of the trial is an open-label, global expansion phase to confirm the efficacy and safety of one dose level of AAVAnc80-hOTOF administered in one or both ear(s). Part B will also evaluate the Intracochlear Delivery System (IDS), which consists of the Akouos Delivery Device, the Precision Delivery Mechanism, and an off-the-shelf syringe.
Part C is a region-specific expansion phase. Part C participants will receive the same dose level of AAVAnc80-hOTOF as participants in Part B, in one or both ear(s) utilizing the IDS.
Part D is a sequential administration phase that allows participants who received AAVAnc80-hOTOF previously in a single ear to receive AAVAnc80-hOTOF administration in the other ear utilizing the IDS.
A Trial of AAVAnc80-hOTOF Gene Therapy in Individuals With Sensorineural Hearing Loss Due to Otoferlin Gene Mutations
The following two dose levels were tested in Part A:
- Up to 4.1E11 total vg/cochlea
- Up to 8.1E11 total vg/cochlea
The following dose level will be tested in Part B, C, and D:
• 8.1E11 total vg/cochlea
