A randomized, double-blind research study on the safety and efficacy of high doses of Eteplirsen in certain patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Descrizione riassuntiva dello studio
This is a phase 3b clinical research study for boys aged 4 to 13 years (inclusive) who are affected by Duchenne muscular dystrophy and have deletion mutations that respond to exon 51 skipping. This study is being conducted to verify whether higher doses of the investigational substance (Eteplirsen) are also safe and/or effective in the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In this study, three treatment groups will each receive different doses of the investigational substance Eteplirsen administered intravenously once a week. The treatment group of study participants will be determined randomly (like flipping a coin). Study participants have the same chance of being assigned to one of the three groups. Two of the treatment groups will receive a high dose (100 mg/kg vs. 200 mg/kg) of the investigational substance, which will then be compared to the treatment group receiving 30 mg/kg of the investigational substance. The assigned dose of the investigational drug will be given to the study participant once a week. The administration will be done as an intravenous infusion (through a needle in the arm), which will take several hours. After each infusion, the study participant will be monitored for at least one hour and possibly up to 3 hours. Additionally, all study participants will regularly attend scheduled study visits. During these visits, the study participant will participate in study-related examinations, assessments, and procedures to monitor how the study participant responds to the investigational substance Eteplirsen. Participation in this study may last up to 156 weeks for study participants (study start 8 weeks, study duration 144 weeks, and study end 4 weeks). The treatment phase lasts approximately 144 weeks (about 3 years).

Intervento studiato
The following examinations, assessments, and procedures will be conducted during the study: 1. Discussion of medical history and current medications/treatments 2. Height and weight 3. Physical examination - complete or brief (general appearance as well as head, eyes, ears, nose, throat, heart, chest, abdomen, skin as well as lymph nodes, limbs, muscles, bones, and the nervous system) 4. Vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature (under the tongue) 5. Blood and urine samples 6. Functional assessments (North Star Ambulatory Assessment, 6-minute walk test, pulmonary function test, 4-step timed test) 7. Health questionnaires/assessments (EQ-5D - health status questionnaire, Clinical Global Impression of Change - scale for clinical global impression) 8. Electrocardiogram (ECG) 9. Echocardiogram (ECHO) 10. Infusion of the investigational substance 11. Muscle biopsy (a total of 2 biopsies during the study)

Malattie studiate
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)
(BASEC)
- Male aged 4 to 13 years inclusive with a clinical diagnosis of DMD and an out-of-frame deletion mutation of the DMD gene that is responsive to exon 51 skipping. - Able to walk independently and without aids. - Has intact biceps muscle on the left and right or an alternative muscle group in the upper arm. - Has received oral corticosteroids at a stable dose for at least 12 weeks prior to randomization and it is assumed that the dose remains constant (excluding modifications to accommodate changes in body weight and stress-related demands throughout the study according to recently published guidelines). (BASEC)
Criteri di esclusione
- Use of a pharmacological treatment (except corticosteroids) in the 12 weeks prior to randomization that may affect muscle strength or function. - Presence of a significant neuromuscular or genetic disorder other than Duchenne muscular dystrophy. - Known hypersensitivity to Eteplirsen or the excipients of Eteplirsen.
