Study of ATX-01 in Participants with DM1

Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to test ATX-01 in participants with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). The main question it aims to answer is if ATX-01 is safe and well tolerated. The trial will compare the safety and tolerability of ATX-01 and a matching placebo. There will be a single-ascending dose part of the trial and a multiple-ascending dose part. In the single-ascending dose, participants will receive one dose of ATX-01 or placebo. In the multiple-ascending dose part, participants will receive three doses of ATX-01 or placebo. ATX-01 is a novel anti-miR (synthetic single stranded oligonucleotide) that inhibits a microRNA called miR-23b.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Participants with a documented clinical diagnosis of DM1 (CTG expansion of \>150 repeats in DMPK gene measured in peripheral blood mononuclear cells)
  • * Ambulatory, defined as able to complete a 10-meter walk/run test at screening without the use of assistive devices such as canes, walkers, or orthoses, except for ankle-foot orthoses
  • * Presence for \>3 seconds of grip myotonia as confirmed by a central reader
  • * Participants with congenital DM1
  • * Medical Research Council Muscle Scale score of less than 4 on ankle dorsiflexion or significant tibialis anterior atrophy that prevents a muscle biopsy
  • * Use of mexiletine or other agent for myotonia within 21 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to screening
