First-in-human Phase 1/2, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of a single lumbar intrathecal dose of ELP-02 to individuals with CMT4J.
Male and females between the ages of 3 and 20 years at the time of screening.
Molecularly-confirmed diagnosis of CMT4J (confirmed by a CLIA certified, CE-marked, or equivalent lab) due to bi-allelic pathogenic variants (by ACMG criteria) in the FIG4 gene where one of the mutations must be the pathogenic I41T variant, with the second mutation either being another pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant (by ACMG criteria).
Clinical signs and symptoms consistent with CMT4J disease/motor symptoms
No more than moderate severity of the disease as measured by a CMTPeds score of <35
Prior or ongoing medical condition, medical history, physical findings, cardiovascular/ECG findings, or laboratory abnormality that, in the investigator's opinion, could adversely affect the safety of the subject, makes it unlikely that the course of treatment or follow-up would be completed, or could impair the assessment of study results.
Clinically significant abnormal laboratory values (hemoglobin < 6 or > 20 g/dL; white blood cell > 20,000 per cmm, platelets count < 100,000 per cmm; INR > ULN; GGT, ALT, and AST or total bilirubin > 2x ULN, creatinine ≥ 1.5 mg/dL) prior to gene replacement therapy.
History of HbA1C > 6.0%
Contraindication or unwillingness to undergo lumbar puncture.
