NMD670 for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SYNAPSE-SMA Trial)

Phase 2
Recruiting
Research Sponsored by NMD Pharma A/S
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Participants with a clinical diagnosis of Type 3 SMA
Participants who are ambulatory, defined as being able to walk at least 50 metres without walking aids
Must not have
Participants with prior surgery or fixed deformity (scoliosis, contractures) which would restrict ability to perform study-related tasks
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up baseline to day 21

Summary

This trial tests if NMD670 is a safe and effective treatment for adults with spinal muscular atrophy type 3.

Who is the study for?
Adults with Type 3 Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) who can walk at least 50 meters unaided, have genetic confirmation of SMA, and a BMI of 19-30 kg/m2. They must use contraception and be able to consent to the study. Excluded are those with recent investigational drug use, surgeries or deformities affecting movement, other significant diseases, or poor compliance with SMA therapy.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing NMD670's effectiveness and safety for adults with Type 3 SMA compared to a placebo. It will also look at how the body processes the drug. Participants will randomly receive either NMD670 or a placebo in this controlled study.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects for NMD670 aren't listed here, common ones may include reactions at the injection site, fatigue, gastrointestinal issues like nausea or diarrhea, muscle pain, and potential allergic reactions.
