Brief Summary

Phase 2a trial of SAT-3247 in ambulatory DMD patients aged ≥ 7 and \< 10 years. The trial has two parts. In Part 1, the trial will study two doses of SAT-3247 in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled weekday regimen for 12 weeks to determine the optimal dose, safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy. In Part 2, the trial will study two doses of SAT-3247 for an additional 9 months.

    12 weeks

Study Arms (3)

SAT-3247 60 mg

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Part 1: SAT-3247 60 mg oral tablets administered daily for 12 weeks. Part 2: SAT-3247 60 mg oral tablets administered daily for an additional 9 months after completing Part 1

Drug: SAT-3247

SAT-3247 120 mg

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Part 1: SAT-3247 120 mg oral tablets administered daily for 12 weeks. Part 2: SAT-3247 120 mg oral tablets administered daily for an additional 9 months after completing Part 1; note the 120 mg dose will not be studied in the US and Canada

Drug: SAT-3247

placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Part 1: placebo oral tablets administered daily for 12 weeks

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

matching placebo oral tablets

placebo

SAT-3247 is a selective AAK1 inhibitor for oral tablet administration which promotes functional rescue of asymmetric satellite cell division, resulting in the robust production of muscle progenitor cells, subsequent improvement in muscle regeneration, and enhanced muscle function.

Eligibility Criteria

Age7 Years - 9 Years
Sexmale(Gender-based eligibility)
Gender Eligibility Detailsgender assigned at birth
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Has a definitive diagnosis of DMD based on documented clinical findings and prior genetic testing with a confirmed mutation in the DMD gene.
  • Male DMD patients who are ambulatory and aged ≥ 7 to \< 10 years at the time of screening.
  • Stable dose of systemic glucocorticoids (i.e., prednisolone, deflazacort, or vamorolone) according to the standard of care for ≥ 3 months prior to the Screening Visit and for the duration of the trial. Patients who are not receiving glucocorticosteroids are also eligible if stopped ≥ 3 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • Stable doses of prescription medicines including ACE inhibitors, β-blockers, and diuretics (excluding glucocorticosteroids) and over-the-counter medicines and/or herbal supplements for supportive care ≥ 1 month prior to the Screening Visit and for the duration of the trial.
  • Participants that have previously received delandistrogene moxeparvovec (brand name Elevidys) either in a prior clinical trial or in the commercial setting \> 18 months prior to screening whose muscle function tests have stabilized or demonstrated decline ≥ 3 months prior to Screening, as determined by investigator and documented in chart notes, will be eligible.
  • Participants that have previously received an exon skipper \> 6 months prior to Screening whose muscle function tests have stabilized or demonstrated decline ≥ 3 months prior to Screening, as determined by investigator and documented in chart notes, will be eligible.
  • Participants receiving a stable dose of givinostat (brand name Duvyzat) for at least 18 months or longer prior to the Screening Visit will be eligible. Participants unable to tolerate givinostat who discontinued treatment before 18 months are eligible to enroll if date of last dose is ≥ 30 days from the Screening date. Givinostat should not be discontinued, if tolerated, to meet study entry criteria.
  • Participants that have received prior treatment with an investigational gene therapy product (other than delandistrogene moxeparvovec) ≥ 24 months prior to the Screening Visit.
  • If participating in a physical therapy/strength training regimen, must be stable for ≥ 2 months prior to the Screening Visit and for the duration of the trial.

You may not qualify if:

  • Ambulatory patients expected to experience loss of ambulation within ≤ 12 months.
  • Participants for whom MRI or open muscle biopsy are contraindicated.
  • Evidence of significant hepatic dysfunction, defined as GLDH \> 2X upper limit of normal (ULN) at the Screening Visit.
  • Impaired cardiac function defined as a left ventricular ejection fraction of \< 50% on screening cardiac assessments (echocardiogram or MRI) or evidence of symptomatic cardiomyopathy.
  • A forced vital capacity \< 60% predicted at the Screening Visit.
  • Ongoing participation in any other therapeutic clinical trial or follow-up study for a therapeutic intervention
  • Consumption of grapefruit juice or grapefruit containing products
  • Severe behavioural or cognitive problems that preclude participation in the study, in the opinion of the investigator.
  • Additional entry criteria will be reviewed with the clinical site investigator.
