Gene editing breakthrough? CRISPR therapy targets rare amyloidosis

NCT ID NCT04601051

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
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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-stage trial tests NTLA-2001, a CRISPR-based gene editing therapy, in 72 adults with hereditary ATTR amyloidosis—a condition where abnormal protein builds up in nerves or the heart. The treatment aims to turn off the faulty gene to reduce protein levels. The study focuses on safety and how the body processes the drug, not yet on curing the disease.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
NTLA-2001 (a CRISPR gene editing therapy delivered via lipid nanoparticles)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a one-time treatment that reduces the harmful protein buildup in ATTR amyloidosis, potentially controlling the disease without lifelong medication.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 1 trial with only 72 participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. Gene editing is new and may have unforeseen risks or side effects.

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

Polyneuropathy Inclusion Criteria: * Male and/or female participants 18 to 80 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent * Diagnosis of polyneuropathy (PN) due to transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis (ATTR) * Must have a body weight of at least 45 kilograms (kg) at Screening visit * Lack of access to approved treatments for ATTR and/or progression of hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN) despite use of approved treatment for ATTRv-PN Polyneuropathy Exclusion Criteria: * Amyloidosis attributable to non-TTR protein, e.g., amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis * Known leptomeningeal transthyretin amyloidosis * Use of any of the following TTR-directed therapy for ATTR within certain timeframe: 1. Patisiran 2. Inotersen 3. Vutrisiran 4. Tafamidis 5. Diflunisal 6. Doxycycline and/or tauroursodeoxycholic acid 7. Any other investigational agent for the treatment of ATTRv-PN: * Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply Cardiomyopathy Inclusion Criteria (UK only): * Male and/or female participants 18 to 90 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent * Diagnosis of transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy, classified as hereditary ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTRv-CM) or wild type cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM). * Must have a body weight of at least 45 kilograms (kg) at Screening visit * New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class I-III heart failure * At least 1 prior hospitalization for heart failure and/or clinical evidence of heart failure. * Able to complete ≥150 meters on the 6-minute walk test (6-MWT) during the Screening period. Cardiomyopathy Exclusion Criteria (UK only): * Amyloidosis attributable to non-TTR protein, e.g., amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis * Known leptomeningeal transthyretin amyloidosis * Use of any of the following TTR-directed therapy for ATTR within certain timeframes: 1. Patisiran 2. Inotersen 3. Vutrisiran 4. Tafamidis 5. Diflunisal 6. Doxycycline and/or tauroursodeoxycholic acid 7. Investigational TTR stabilizer (e.g., AG-10) * Participants with heart failure that in the opinion of the investigator is caused by ischemic heart disease, hypertension, or uncorrected valvular disease and not primarily due to transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy. * Participants with a history of sustained ventricular tachycardia or aborted ventricular fibrillation or with a history of atrioventricular (AV) nodal or sinoatrial (SA) nodal dysfunction for which a pacemaker is indicated but will not be placed. Pacemaker or defibrillator placement, initiation of or change in anti-arrhythmic medication within 28 days prior to study drug administration. * Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply
