Hub Summary
This Phase IIb study is a two part, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ATL1102 in non-ambulant boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy aged 10 to 17 years old. The study includes a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period (Part A), followed by an open labelled treatment period (Part B).
Study Number: NCT05938023
Description by Antisense Therapeutics Limited
This Phase IIb study is a two part, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ATL1102 and will enroll 45 non-ambulant boys with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) aged 10 to <18 years old.
During the 24 week randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period (Part A) participants will be enrolled and randomised to receive either ATL1102 25mg, ATL1102 50mg or matched placebo in a 1:1:1 ratio given as a weekly subcutaneous injection.
Participants will then continue to the 24 week Open Labelled Treatment Period (Part B) and continue to receive ATL1102 25mg or ATL1102 50mg for a further 24 weeks. Participants on placebo in Part A will transition to ATL1102.
The study will consist of a 4 week screening period, 24 week randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period (Part A), 24 week open label treatment period (Part B) and 16 week follow up period.
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in the Performance of Upper Limb (PUL) 2.0 score from baseline to Week 25 (blinded treatment period). [ Time Frame: 25 weeks ]
The PUL is an assessment used to evaluate the upper limb strength for individuals with DMD where a higher score indicates a better outcome with a minimum of 0 and a maximum score of 42
- Change in the Performance of Upper Limb (PUL) 2.0 score from Week 25 to Week 49 (open label treatment period). [ Time Frame: 49 weeks ]
The PUL is an assessment used to evaluate the upper limb strength for individuals with DMD where a higher score indicates a better outcome with a minimum of 0 and a maximum score of 42
- Change in the Performance of Upper Limb (PUL) 2.0 score from baseline to Week 49 (combined treatment period). [ Time Frame: 49 weeks ]
The PUL is an assessment used to evaluate the upper limb strength for individuals with DMD where a higher score indicates a better outcome with a minimum of 0 and a maximum score of 42
- Safety measured by the incidence and frequency of adverse events, serious adverse events and suspected unexpected adverse events from baseline to Week 65 [ Time Frame: 65 weeks ]
An Adverse Event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant and does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the intervention.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change in the grip strength of the hand from baseline to Week 25 using a handheld dynamometer tool (MyoGrip) (blinded treatment period). [ Time Frame: 25 weeks ]
The handheld dynamometer tool (MyoGrip) use strain gauge technology to measure the hand strength in Kilograms exerted by the participants with higher recordings indicating greater hand strength.
- Change in the pinch strength of the fingers from baseline to Week 25 using handheld dynamometer tool (MyoPinch) (blinded treatment period). [ Time Frame: 25 weeks ]
The handheld dynamometer tool (MyoPinch) use strain gauge technology to measure the pinch strength of the fingers in Kilograms exerted by the participants with higher recordings indicating greater hand strength.
- Change in the respiratory function assessed by Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) from baseline to Week 25 (blinded treatment period). [ Time Frame: 25 weeks ]
The percent predicted for Forced Vital Capacity (FVC%p) will be calculated at multiple timepoints after respiratory function is assessed using spirometry tests
- Change in the respiratory function assessed by peak expiratory flow (PEF) from baseline to Week 25 (blinded treatment period). [ Time Frame: 25 weeks ]
The percent predicted for peak expiratory flow (PEF%p) will be calculated at multiple timepoints after respiratory function is assessed using spirometry tests
- Change in the Paediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL™) questionnaire Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) Module from baseline to Week 25 (blinded treatment period). [ Time Frame: 25 weeks ]
Health related quality of life is assessed by percentage of change in the score collected in the Paediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL™) Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) Module for participants and parents at multiple timepoints. A higher score indicates a better health related quality of life with a minimum of 0 and a maximum score of 100.

Other Outcome Measures
Changes in lymphocyte populations to assess pharmacodynamic effects of ATL1102 from baseline to Week 57 [ Time Frame: 57 weeks ]
Lymphocyte population (cells/L) including cells expressing CD49d will be evaluated at multiple timepoints during the study utilizing chip cytometry.
