NCT05481879

Brief Summary

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple intravenous (IV) doses of DYNE-101 administered to participants with Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1). The study consists of 4 periods: A Screening Period (up to 8 weeks), a Placebo-Controlled Period (24 weeks), a Treatment Period (24 weeks) and a Long-Term Extension (LTE) Period (168 weeks) in both multiple-ascending dose (MAD) and dose expansion cohorts.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 65 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Diagnosis of DM1 with trinucleotide repeat size \>100.
  • Age of onset of DM1 muscle symptoms ≥12 years.
  • Clinically apparent myotonia equivalent to hand opening time of at least 2 seconds in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Hand grip strength and ankle dorsiflexion strength.
  • Able to complete 10-MWRT, stair ascend/descend (MAD cohorts only), and 5×STS at screening without the use of assistive devices such as canes, walkers, or orthoses.

You may not qualify if:

  • History of major surgical procedure within 12 weeks prior to the start of investigative product administration or an expectation of a major surgical procedure (eg, implantation of cardiac defibrillator) during the study.
  • History of anaphylaxis.
  • Medical condition other than DM1 that would significantly impact ambulation or participation in functional assessments.
  • Treatment with medications that can improve myotonia within a period of 5 half-lives of the medication prior to performing screening assessments.
  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) with the corrected QT interval by Fridericia's Formula (QTcF) ≥450 milliseconds (ms) in men and QTcF ≥460 ms in women, PR ≥240 ms, left bundle-branch block, or a conduction defect, which is clinically significant in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Percent predicted forced vital capacity (FVC) \<50%.
  • History of tibialis anterior biopsy within 3 months of Day 1 or planning to undergo tibialis anterior biopsies during study period for reasons unrelated to the study.
  • Participant has a history of suicide attempt, suicidal behavior, or has any suicidal ideation within 6 months prior to Screening that meets criteria at a level of 4 or 5 of the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) or who, in the opinion of the Investigator, is at significant risk to commit suicide.
  • Use of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonist medications including semaglutide, dulaglutide, liraglutide, exenatide, or tirzepatide within a period of 5 half-lives of the medication prior to performing screening assessments.
  • Significant weight loss during study participation may impact weight-based dosing, performance on muscle function assessments, and pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers.
