Official title
A Phase 2, Multicenter, Open-label, Randomized, Controlled Study of LX2006 Gene Therapy in Participants With Friedreich Ataxia Cardiomyopathy (SUNRISE-FA 2)
Overview
The purpose of Study LX2006-03, a multicenter, Phase 2, open-label, randomized, controlled study, is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of LX2006 gene therapy in participants with Friedreich ataxia (FA) cardiomyopathy (CM).
Interventions
- Genetic LX2006
Adeno-associated viral vector encoding the FXN gene (AAVrh.10hFXN) - Other Usual Care
Cohort 1: Participants ≥16 years of age with FA-CM Participants will receive usual care for 26 weeks before receiving treatment with LX2006 (single crossover).
Primary outcome measures
- Percent change from baseline in left ventricular mass index by cardiac MRI [Time frame: At Week 26]
Secondary outcome measures (12)
- Change from baseline in high-sensitivity troponin I [Time frame: At Week 26 and through Month 60]
- Change from baseline in left ventricular wall thickness and additional imaging outcomes [Time frame: At Week 26 and through Month 60]
- Change from baseline in modified Friedreich's Ataxia Rating Scale [Time frame: At Week 26 and through Month 60]
- Change from baseline in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Healthcare resource use [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Cardiovascular events [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Patient Global Impressions scales [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Change in clinical routine safety laboratory tests as assessed by standardized clinical laboratory reference ranges [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Change in clinical vital signs (body temperature [°C]) [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Change in clinical vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure [mmHg]) [Time frame: Through Month 60]
- Change in clinical vital signs (heart rate [beats per minute]) [Time frame: Through Month 60]
Eligibility criteria
