Experimental gene therapy targets rare muscle disease in first human test

NCT ID NCT05876780

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a single-dose gene therapy called SRP-9003 in 6 people with limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2E/R4, a rare genetic muscle-weakening disease. The main goals are to check safety and see if the therapy can produce the missing beta-sarcoglycan protein in muscle. Both ambulatory and non-ambulatory participants are included.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
SRP-9003 (a gene therapy given as a single IV infusion)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a treatment that restores the missing protein in muscle cells, potentially slowing or stopping muscle weakness in LGMD2E/R4.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small phase 1 trial with only 6 people. It primarily checks safety and protein levels, not whether it improves strength or daily life. Gene therapies can cause immune reactions or other side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Cohort 1 only: Ambulatory per protocol specified criteria. - Cohort 2 only: Non-ambulatory per protocol specified criteria and 4 to 50 years of age. * Possesses 1 homozygous or 2 heterozygous pathogenic and/or likely pathogenic β-sarcoglycan gene Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (SGCB) gene mutations based on documented clinical findings. * Ability to cooperate with muscle testing. Exclusion Criteria: * Presence of any other clinically significant illness or medical condition, including cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, hematologic, immunologic, neuromuscular (other than LGMD2E/R4), or behavioral disease, or infection or malignancy or concomitant illness or requirement for chronic drug treatment that in the opinion of the Investigator creates unnecessary risks for gene transfer or a medical condition or extenuating circumstance that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might compromise the participant's ability to comply with the protocol required testing or procedures or compromise the participant's wellbeing, safety, or clinical interpretability. * Exposure to gene therapy, investigational medication, or other protocol-specified treatment within the protocol specified time limits. * Any contraindication to use of corticosteroid. Note: Other inclusion or exclusion criteria could apply.
