Study Summary
This trial will study the safety and effectiveness of a new drug for a rare disease called CLN3 disease. The trial will last 104 weeks, and will involve 6 subjects at 2 different centers.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged 17 or older with genetically confirmed CLN3 disease, a form of Batten Disease. Participants must be able to perform study tasks and visit the clinic as needed. They should agree to use effective contraception during the trial and for a month after it ends.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Miglustat's safety, how it's processed in the body (pharmacokinetics), and effectiveness in treating CLN3 disease at doses from 100 mg once daily up to 200 mg three times daily over two years across two centers.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of Miglustat may include stomach discomfort, diarrhea, weight loss, tremors, and numbness. These are based on known side effects but could vary among participants.

Other Research
The most common treatments for Batten Disease, such as Miglustat, work by inhibiting enzymes involved in the synthesis of glycosphingolipids, thereby reducing their accumulation in cells. This is crucial for Batten Disease patients because the excessive buildup of these lipids in neurons leads to cell dysfunction and death, contributing to the progressive neurodegeneration characteristic of the disease.
By reducing glycosphingolipid accumulation, these treatments aim to slow disease progression, preserve neuronal function, and improve quality of life for patients.
