Study of HuCNS-SC Cells in Patients With Infantile or Late Infantile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL)
Description

Patients with infantile or late infantile NCL have either a reduced amount of, or are missing, the palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1) enzyme or the tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TPP-I) enzyme. Human central nervous system stem cells (HuCNS-SC) are an investigational product derived from human brain cells. HuCNS-SC have been shown to survive and migrate within the brains of mice. When grown in the laboratory, HuCNS-SC have been shown to produce the PPT1 and TPP-I enzymes. In mice missing the PPT1 enzyme, HuCNS-SC have been shown to increase the amount of this enzyme in the brain, to reduce the amount of abnormal storage material in the brain, and to prevent the death of some neurons (a type of cell) in the brain. Participation in this study will involve screening assessments, surgery to implant HuCNS-SC, medication to suppress the immune system, and a series of follow-up assessments. The length of time from the start of screening through to the last follow-up visit will be approximately 13 months, with frequent visits to the study center during this time. After completion of this study, patients will be monitored for an additional 4 years under a separate long term follow-up protocol.

Natural History Study of Batten Disease
Description

This is a multicenter, international, study to assess the natural history data from people with Batten disease by collecting both retrospective and prospective information about the motor, behavioral and functional capabilities of patients. The study initially has 2 cohorts. Cohort 1 (n ≈ 75) includes subjects with CLN6 Batten disease. Cohort 2 (n ≈ 120) includes subjects with juvenile CLN3 Batten disease. Additional cohorts for other Batten disease subtypes may be added in the future.

Gene Therapy For Children With Variant Late Infantile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis 6 (vLINCL6) Disease
Description

This is a phase 1/2, open-label, single dose study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AT-GTX-501 delivered intrathecally into the lumbar spinal cord region of participants with mild to moderate variant late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis associated with mutation(s) in the CLN6 gene (vLINCL6 disease).

Gene Therapy Study for Children With CLN5 Batten Disease
Description

This is a prospective, non-randomized, open-label, dose escalation study of a single administration of gene therapy in children who are 3 to 9 years old with Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (Batten) Subtype 5 (CLN5) disease.

Long-Term Follow Up of CLN6 Batten Disease Subjects Following Gene Transfer
Description

This is a long-term safety and efficacy study in subjects with CLN6 Batten disease who previously received a single intrathecal administration of AT-GTX-501.

Conditions

CLN6, Batten Disease

A Natural History Study of Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis Type 5 (CLN5)
Description

CLN5 is a form of Batten Disease, a neurodegenerative disorder in children causing psychomotor regression, seizures, blindness, loss of ambulation and premature death, and has no available treatments. The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical characteristics and natural clinical progression of symptoms in individuals with CLN5. This natural history study is important to better understand disease course to be able to determine clinically relevant outcome measures for use in future clinical trials.

Conditions

Ceroid Lipofuscinosis, Neuronal 5

Gene Therapy for Children With CLN3 Batten Disease
Description

This is a phase 1/2, open-label, single dose, dose-escalation clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AT-GTX-502 (previous NCH Code: scAAV9.P546.CLN3) delivered intrathecally into the lumbar spinal cord region of subjects with CLN3 Batten disease.

Conditions

CLN3, Batten Disease

Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis and Associated Sleep Abnormalities
Description

Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) also known at Batten's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disorder in children. Families often report the patient has a sleep disturbance. This is a questionnaire to be completed by the family to better understand the sleep pattern and sleep difficulties experienced by individuals who have been diagnosed with NCL.

Clinical and Neuropsychological Investigations in Batten Disease
Description

This study aims to assess the natural history of Batten disease (Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis) by obtaining information about the motor, behavioral, and functional capabilities of individuals with Batten disease. This study will also refine and validate the Unified Batten Disease Rating Scale (UBDRS) as a clinical rating instrument for Batten disease.

Safety and Efficacy Study of HuCNS-SC in Subjects With Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis
Description

The purpose of this Phase Ib study is to determine if "Human Central Nervous System Stem Cells"(HuCNS-SC) is safe to be transplanted in subjects with infantile and late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. The study will also measure post-transplantation disease progression.
