Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion Criteria 1. Patient does not have L68Q mutation 2. Patient has clinically significant illness, mental or physical, that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study, pose additional risk to the patient by their participation, or prevent/impede the patient from completing the study. 3. Patient is pregnant or attempting to become pregnant 4. Patient tests positive for illicit drugs (including marijuana) or has history of drug abuse within the last 2 years. 5. Patient consumes excessive amounts of alcoholic beverages. 6. There is any concern by the investigator regarding the patient’s safety, compliance, or suitability with respect to his/her participation in the study.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: • Evaluate safety and tolerability of AT-1 administered orally in adults (ages 18 and over) with HCCAA with or without dementia symptoms • Assess dose-response relationship of AT-1 on HCCAA disease progression, including • Biomarker response from skin biopsies (reduction in cystatin C stain) • Assessment of cognitive status using dementia rating scales ; Secondary Objective: • Characterize pharmacokinetic parameters of AT-1 when administered orally to adults (ages 18 and over) with HCCAA (n=5) • Assess influence of AT-1 on serum glutathione levels • Assess influence of AT-1 on cystatin C/amyloid dimer formation • Assess excretion of cystatin C in urine and impact of AT-1 treatment ; Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoint: • Assessing the biological efficacy, safety and tolerability at AT-1 based on assessment of the stained skin biopsies, AEs and other safety measurements including vital signs, ECG, labs. • The change in skin deposition (reduction in cystatin C/amyloid protein complex stain) following 3, 6, and 9 months treatment with study drug. • The change in cognitive status using dementia rating scales following 3, 6 and 9 months treatment with study drug ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At month 3, 6, and 9

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Secondary Endpoint: • Establish pharmacokinetics of AT-1 in a subset of 5 subjects. • GSSG/GSH ratio in blood • Cystatin C/amyloid dimer formation • hCC levels in urine ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 3, 6 and 9 months
