Catabasis - Galaxy DMD [TERMINATED]

An Open-Label Extension Study of Edasalonexent in Boys With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Hub Summary

This is an open label extension trial for patients who completed the POLARIS-DMD trial, and their siblings who meet the inclusion criteria between the ages of 4-12yrs (up to their 13th birthday). 

This trial is looking at the safety, tolerability and durability of taking edasalonexent over a long period of time. Edasalonexent has been shown to delay the progression of DMD and could provide an alternative to steroids. It is in tablet form and taken orally (by mouth) three times a day. 

Study Number: NCT03917719

Description by Catabasis Pharmaceuticals

The GalaxyDMD study is a global Phase 3, open-label, treatment extension study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and durability of effect in long-term dosing of edasalonexent in pediatric patients with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of DMD. Patients who completed CAT-1004-201 or CAT-1004-301 or siblings of these boys from 4-12 years of age (up to 13th birthday) will be enrolled.

Edasalonexent is an orally administered small molecule that inhibits NF-kB, which is a key link between loss of dystrophin and disease pathology and plays a fundamental role in the initiation and progression of skeletal and cardiac muscle disease in DMD.

The study includes a 104-week open-label treatment period with edasalonexent. Patients who completed CAT-1004-201 or CAT-1004-301 and eligible siblings of these boys will be enrolled in this trial.

 
Primary Outcome Measures

  • Safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with edasalonexent measured by number of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: 104 Weeks ]

 
Secondary Outcome Measures

  • Durability of effects of edasalonexent on physical function as measured by the North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA) [ Time Frame: 104 Weeks ]
  • Durability of effects of edasalonexent on physical function as measured by the 10-meter walk/run test [ Time Frame: 104 Weeks ]
  • Durability of effects of edasalonexent on physical function as measured by the time to stand from supine [ Time Frame: 104 Weeks ]
  • Durability of effects of edasalonexent on physical function as measured by the 4-stair climb [ Time Frame: 104 Weeks ]
