Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Late-onset Pompe Disease Gene Therapy Drug

This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of GC301 adeno-associated virus vector expressing codon-optimized human acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) as potential gene therapy for Pompe disease. Patients diagnosed with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) who are ≥ 6 years old will be studied.

Treatment and study plan

GC301

Genetic

GC301, is an adeno-associated virus 9 (AAV9) vector delivering a functional copy of the human GAA gene

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

  2. Dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rate based on protocol-specific adverse events (Phase 1)

    Time frame: within 30 days after treatment

  3. Percent Predicted Upright Forced Vital Capacity (FVC)(Phase 2)

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in percentage of predicted FVC measured by pulmonary function testing

Secondary outcomes

  1. 6-Minute Walk Test

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in the distance walked in the 6 minute walk test (6MWT), which is a standardized assessment of how far an individual can walk on a hard, flat surface in a period of 6 minutes

  2. Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (MIP)

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in MIP measured by pulmonary function testing

  3. Maximum Expiratory Pressure (MEP)

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in MEP measured by pulmonary function testing

  4. Muscle Status Testing - Quick Motor Function Test (QMFT) Measure

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Measurement of functional motor abilities using the Quick Motor Function Test (QMFT) will be performed and the results compared with baseline.

  5. Quality of life evaluation: 12-item short form health survey (SF-12) for LOPD participants

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    SF-12, a 12 item-questionnaire, used to assess health-related quality of life in participants aged >=18 years at screening/baseline. SF-12 consisted of 12 items, which were categorized into eight domains (subscales) of functioning and well-being: physical functioning, role-physical, role emotional, mental health, bodily pain, general health, vitality and social functioning, with each domain score ranged from 0 (poor health) to 100 (better health), higher scores indicated good health condition. These eight domains were further summarized into 2 summary scores, physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS). The score range for each of these 2 summary scores was from 0 (poor health) to 100 (better health), higher scores indicated a better health-related quality of life.

  6. Time needed for non-invasive ventilatory support

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in time duration that needed for non-invasive ventilatory support

  7. The viral load of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    To assess the change of AAV vector copy numbers within 52 weeks after administration.

  8. Occurrence of immune response against AAV capsid annd GAA transgene

    Time frame: 52 weeks

Other outcomes

  1. GAA enzymatic activity

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in GAA enzymatic activity in muscle biopsies

  2. GAA enzymatic activity

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in GAA enzymatic activity in blood

  3. Glycogen content in muscle

    Time frame: 52 weeks

    Change from baseline in glycogen content in muscle biopsies
