The Symptomatic Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Trial of REC-994

This is a two-part, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of REC-994 (200 mg and 400 mg) compared to placebo in participants with symptomatic cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM).

Key information

About this study

Part 1: Participants will receive treatment over a period of 12 months. Part 2: Optional long-term extension (LTE) for participants completing Part 1 and who are eligible for extended treatment with REC-994.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • 18 years of age or older with anatomic CCM lesions demonstrated by brain MRI
  • Have symptomatic CCM
  • Have provided written informed consent to participate in the study
  • Have not participated in a clinical trial utilizing an investigational agent within 28 days or within 5 half-lives of the investigational drug (whichever is longer) prior to Screening

Exclusion criteria

  • Symptoms deemed by the study Investigator to be caused exclusively by irreversible neuronal damage from prior stroke or neurosurgical instrumentation
  • History of cranial irradiation or surgical/radiosurgical treatment of the primary symptomatic CCM lesion
  • Pregnant or breast feeding
  • Be unable or unwilling to participate in MRI assessments (e.g., claustrophobia, metal implant or implanted cardiac pacemaker)
  • Liver dysfunction or active liver disease as defined by baseline serum transaminases >2x upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Have moderately or severely impaired renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] <60ml/min) or active renal disease or have previously received a kidney transplant
  • Have had a previous diagnosis of skeletal muscle disorders (myopathy) of any cause or have a baseline creatine kinase level > 5x ULN
  • History of alcohol or substance abuse within 1 year prior to screening
  • Clinically significant laboratory abnormality
  • Have had an intracerebral hemorrhage within 3 months of screening or any brain surgery within 6 months of screening (not including the primary symptomatic CCM lesion)
