This is a Phase 1/2 randomized, blinded, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intrathecal (IT) administration of SBT101, a recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9) containing a functional copy of the human adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette transporter subfamily D member 1 (ABCD1; hABCD1) gene, in adult patients with adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) aged 18-65 years.
Patients will receive a single dose of SBT101 via IT route (or an imitation procedure) and will be followed for safety and efficacy for 2 years. Patients receiving SBT101 will be followed for an additional 3 years (5 total) for Safety. Patients receiving an imitation procedure will be offered the opportunity to receive SBT101 after 2 years, as data indicate.
The study consists of two parts after infusion of SBT101:
Part 1: A blinded 24-month core study period to evaluate the safety and potential impact of SBT101 on disease progression. Part 1 will consist of 2 phases:
Phase 1: Dose-Escalation Phase: Two (2) doses of SBT101 (Dose level 1 cohort and Dose Level 2 cohort) will be evaluated to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).
Phase 2: Dose-Expansion Phase: Additional patients will be enrolled to receive SBT101 at the MTD
Part 2: An unblinded 3-year long-term safety follow-up period with annual follow-up visits to evaluate the safety of SBT101 and disease progression.
