Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Event-free survival
Defined by events of death, rescue transplant, treatment failure, immunological complications, severe cognitive and/or growth impairment.
2 years
Secondary Outcomes (6)
Change from baseline to Year 2 in α-L-iduronidase (IDUA) activity in leukocytes
Day 30 and multiple visits up to 5 years post-treatment
Change from baseline to Year 2 in the ratio to the upper limit of normal (ULN) of urinary heparan sulfate levels
Day 30 and multiple visits up to 5 years post-treatment
Safety of OTL-203 compared to allo-HSCT procedure
Up to 5 years post-treatment
Malignancy or abnormal clonal proliferation (ACP) using different tests and procedures (e.g., general clinical evaluation, blood counts, and specialized assessments such as integration site analysis).
Up to 5 years post-treatment
Replication Competent Lentivirus (RCL)
Up to 5 years post-treatment
- +1 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (2)
OTL-203
EXPERIMENTALEligible subjects randomized to Arm 1 will receive an intravenous (IV) infusion of OTL-203 gene therapy. Subjects will receive conditioning regimen with busulfan and fludarabine prior to OTL-203 infusion.
Allo-HSCT
ACTIVE COMPARATOREligible subjects randomized to Arm 2 will receive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Subjects will receive conditioning regimen with busulfan and fludarabine prior to allo-HSCT.
Interventions
Experimental: OTL-203: Autologous CD34+ enriched cell fraction that contains hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells transduced ex vivo using lentiviral vector encoding the human IDUA gene
Active Comparator: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Norm-referenced cognitive standard score of ≥70 measured by age-appropriate cognitive domains of either Bayley Scale of Infant Development (BSID)-III or Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI)-IV.
- Confirmed laboratory diagnosis of MPS-IH as demonstrated by biallelic mutation(s) in the gene coding for IDUA enzyme
- Final confirmation of MPS-IH diagnosis by a Diagnostic Review Committee (DRC).
You may not qualify if:
- Previous allo-HSCT or gene therapy
- Current enrollment or past treatment in any other interventional study/trial using a novel investigational agent and/or treated with prohibited medications listed in the protocol
- Positivity to serological testing for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-1 or HIV-2, Human T Lymphotropic Virus (HTLV)-1 or HTLV-2, Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) core, Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), mycoplasma, active tuberculosis (TB) and not meeting the microbiology biological screening requirements.
- Malignant neoplasia (except local skin cancer).
- Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
- History of uncontrolled seizures
- Subjects with an active infection not responsive to treatment, end-organ damage, or any other disease that contraindicates performance of any of the procedures detailed in the protocol, or medical conditions or extenuating circumstances that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might compromise the subject's well-being or safety, or the interpretability of the subject's clinical data.
- Subjects, who in the opinion of the Investigator, may not be able to comply with protocol requirements or cooperate fully with the study procedures and necessary long-term follow up
