What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 Phase 3 study tests an experimental drug called ION582 in 158 children and adults with Angelman syndrome, a genetic disorder causing severe developmental delays. The drug is given as a spinal injection and aims to improve expressive communication and cognitive skills. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either ION582 or a placebo, and researchers will measure changes in communication abilities over time.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
ION582
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a treatment that improves communication and cognitive skills in people with Angelman syndrome.
What could go wrong
This is still an experimental drug. It may not work better than placebo, and side effects from the spinal injection or the drug itself are possible.

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

Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. The participants caregiver(s)/ legally authorized representative must have given written informed consent and any authorizations required by local law and be able to comply with all study requirements. 2. Medically stable and can undergo sedation and/or general anesthesia without intubation. 3. Male or female between 2 and lesser than or equal to (≤)50 years of age, depending on specific cohort, at the time of the in-clinic Screening visit. 4. Participant has a clinical diagnosis of Angelman syndrome (AS) with molecular confirmation of either Ubiquitin-protein ligase E3A (UBE3A) deletion or UBE3A mutation. 5. Currently receiving stable doses of concomitant medications typically prescribed for AS, such as anti-epileptic medication, behavioral management medications, sleep medications, gabapentin, cannabidiol, and special diets, supplements, or nutritional support for at least 8 weeks prior to the Baseline visit. 6. Legally authorized representative/caregiver(s) agree(s) not to post any of the participant's personal medical data or information related to the study on any website or social media site (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), YouTube, TikTok, etc.) from the time of enrollment until they are notified that the study is completed. Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. Must not have any clinically significant abnormalities in medical history (e.g., major surgery within 3 months of screening), or on physical examination for which treatment with an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) would be contraindicated or which, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator (PI), could confound the results of this study. 2. Known brain or spinal disease that would interfere with the lumbar puncture (LP) procedure, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation, or presence of other factors would affect the safety of the LP procedure. 3. Must not have any other conditions, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the participant unsuitable for inclusion or could interfere with the participant participating in or completing the study. 4. Must not have any laboratory abnormalities or any other clinically significant abnormalities that would, as assessed by the Investigator, at screening or Baseline, render a participant unsuitable for inclusion. 5. Previous treatment with an oligonucleotide (including small interfering ribonucleic acid (RNA) \[siRNA\], ASOs) gene therapy or gene editing. This exclusion criterion does not apply to approved nucleic acid-based vaccines, including mRNA vaccines, which are allowed. 6. Has molecular confirmation of AS due to paternal uniparental disomy, imprinting center defect, or mosaic findings. Other inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.
