Study Details

Brief summary:

ENDEAVOR is a Phase 1/2, 2-part, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ETX101 in participants with SCN1A-positive Dravet syndrome aged ≥6 to <36 months (Part 1A), aged ≥48 months to <18 years (Part 1B), and aged ≥6 to <48 months (Part 2). Part 1A follows an open-label, dose-escalation design, Part 1B follows an open-label design, and Part 2 is a randomized, double-blind, sham delayed-treatment control study.

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: Part 1 (US Only)

Part 1A will follow an open-label, rule-based, dose-escalation design and will evaluate up to 4 dose levels of ETX101. Part 1B will follow an open-label design and will evaluate 1 dose level of ETX101.

sham comparator: Part 2

Part 2 will follow a double-blind (up through Week 52), randomized, sham delayed-treatment control design.

There will be 2 cohorts in Part 2. A single dose level of ETX101 will be evaluated in Part 2 and participants will be randomized 2:1 to study treatment or sham procedure with delayed treatment.

Interventions

ETX101

ETX101 is a non-replicating, recombinant adeno-associated viral vector serotype 9 (rAAV9) comprising a GABAergic regulatory element (reGABA) and an engineered transcription factor that increases transcription of the SCN1A gene (eTFSCN1A). ETX101 is intended as a one-time intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration.

Primary outcome measure

  • Percent change in monthly countable seizure frequency (MCSF) between the Pre-Dosing Seizure Period and the Post-Dosing Assessment Period. [ Time Frame: Between the Pre-Dosing Seizure Period and the Post-Dosing Assessment Period (defined as Week 5 to Week 52). ]
