A Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Prime Editing (PM577) in Participants With Wilson Disease (WD)

Официальное название

A Phase 1/2 Clinical Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Biological Activity, and Initial Efficacy of Prime Editing (PM577a) for the Treatment of Wilson Disease (WD) in Adult and Adolescent Participants With at Least One Allele Harboring the p.H1069Q Mutation in ATP7B

Обзор

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, biological activity, and initial efficacy of PM577a, an investigational Prime Editing therapy, in adults and adolescents with Wilson disease (WD). Wilson disease is caused by changes (mutations) in the ATP7B gene that prevent the body from removing excess copper normally. PM577a is designed to precisely correct one of the most common disease-causing ATP7B mutations (p.H1069Q) in liver cells with the goal of restoring normal copper metabolism. This is the first study of PM577a in people. Participants will receive a single intravenous (IV) infusion of PM577a and will be monitored closely to evaluate safety, how the body responds to treatment, whether copper metabolism improves, and whether treatment may improve signs and symptoms of Wilson disease.

Подробное описание

This is a Phase 1/2, open-label study evaluating PM577a in adults and adolescents with Wilson disease who have specific disease-causing changes in the ATP7B gene, including at least one p.H1069Q mutation.

The study will evaluate the safety of PM577a, determine an appropriate dose for future studies, and assess whether treatment restores copper metabolism and improves clinical measures of Wilson disease. Participants will receive a single IV infusion of PM577a and will undergo regular safety evaluations, laboratory testing, imaging, and clinical assessments for approximately 48 weeks after treatment. Participants will then be asked to enroll in a separate long-term follow-up study to continue monitoring safety and treatment effects.

• Historical genetic analysis demonstrating biallelic pathogenic, likely pathogenic, or suspected pathogenic ATP7B variants, including at least one p.H1069Q allele.
• Treated and stable on standard of care therapy for WD for the past 6 months prior to signing ICF, as documented by a history of adherence to SOC medications (i.e., penicillamine, trientine, and/or zinc) without significant medication or dose/frequency changes, per Investigator judgement.
• Demonstrated Adequate Copper Control confirmed at screening
• Willingness to maintain a stable, copper-conscious diet and avoid copper-containing supplements, from signing of the ICF until the physician determines that it is no longer necessary post-infusion.
• Willingness to abstain from alcohol use from start of the screening period through 3 months after PM577a infusion and adhere to recommendations of moderate alcohol consumption (as defined in this protocol) through primary follow-up period.
• Participants are expected to enroll in a separate long-term follow-up study for a total of approximately 15 years of follow-up following PM577a administration.
