LEAP2MONO: Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Venglustat in Adult and Pediatric Patients With Gaucher Disease Type 3
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a parallel arm, Phase 3, double-blind, double-dummy, active-comparator, 2 arm study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daily oral venglustat versus intravenous Cerezyme infusions every two weeks for improvement or stabilization of the neurological manifestations and maintenance of systemic disease stability in participants aged ≥12 and <18 years and adult patients with Gaucher disease Type 3 (GD3) who have been treated with Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) for at least 3 years.

Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-

-
Adult participant is ≥18 years of age
-
Pediatric participant is ≥12 years <18 years of age
-
The participant has a clinical diagnosis of GD3 and a documented deficiency of acid beta-glucosidase activity confirming this diagnosis.
-
The participant has a modified SARA score of 1 or above.
-
The presence of gaze palsy, predominantly horizontal, with slow or absent saccades.
-
If the participant has a history of seizures, they are well controlled under appropriate medication not identified as a strong or moderate inducer or inhibitor of CYP3A.
-
Participants ≥ 30 kg of weight
-
Contraception for sexually active male participants or female patient; not pregnant or breastfeeding; no sperm donating for male participant

Exclusion Criteria:
-
The participant is blood transfusion-dependent.
-
Prior esophageal varices or liver infarction or current liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase [ALT]/ aspartate aminotransferase [AST]) or total bilirubin >2 times the upper limit of normal, unless the participant has a diagnosis of Gilbert Syndrome.
-
The participant has any clinically significant disease, other than GD, including cardiovascular (congenital cardiac defect, coronary artery disease, valve disease or left sided heart failure; clinically significant arrhythmias or conduction defect), hepatic, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, neurologic, endocrine, metabolic (eg, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia) or psychiatric disease, other medical conditions, or serious intercurrent illnesses that may preclude participation in the opinion of the Investigator.
-
The participant has renal insufficiency, as defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min/1.73m2 at the screening visit.
-
The participant has a history of cancer, except for basal cell carcinoma.
-
The participant has progressive myoclonic epilepsy.
-
The participant is pregnant (has a positive serum beta-human chronic gonadotropin [β-hCG]) or lactating.
-
The participant has a cortical cataract >one-quarter of the lens circumference (Grade cortical cataract-2) or a posterior subcapsular cataract >2 mm (Grade posterior subcapsular cataract-2). Participants with nuclear cataracts will not be excluded.
-
The participant requires use of invasive ventilatory support.
-
The participant requires use of noninvasive ventilator support while awake for longer than 12 hours daily.
-
The participant is scheduled for in-patient hospitalization including elective surgery, during the study.
-
The participant has had a major organ transplant (eg, bone marrow or liver).
-
A history of drug and/or alcohol abuse within the past year prior to the screening visit.
-
Chaperone therapy within 6 months, substrate reduction therapy other than venglustat within 6 months or venglustat substrate reduction therapy prior to enrollment.
-
The participant has received an investigational product, within 30 days prior to enrollment.
-
The participant is currently receiving potentially cataractogenic medications.
-
The participant has received strong or moderate inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A within 14 days or 5 half-lives from screening, whichever is longer, prior to screening. This also includes the consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or grapefruit containing products within 72 hours of starting venglustat. The participant is unwilling to abstain from consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or grapefruit containing products for the duration of the treatment period.
-
The participant, in the opinion of the investigator, is unable to adhere to the requirements of the study or unable to undergo study assessments (eg, contraindication for MRI).
-
Type of participant and disease characteristic: the participant has had a total splenectomy prior to enrollment. The patient had a partial splenectomy within 3 years prior to randomization.
-
Participant not suitable for participation, whatever the reason, as judged by the Investigator, including medical or clinical conditions, or participants potentially at risk of noncompliance to study procedures
-
Sensitivity to any of the study interventions, or components thereof, or drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the Investigator, contraindicates participation in the study
