GM2 Gangliosidosis, Sandhoff Disease, Tay-Sachs Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a multinational, multicenter, open-label, rater-blinded prospective Phase II study which will assess the safety and efficacy of N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001) for the treatment of GM2 Gangliosidosis (Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff Disease). There are two phases to this study: the Parent Study, and the Extension Phase. The Parent Study evaluates the safety and efficacy of N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001) in the symptomatic treatment of GM2 Gangliosidosis (Tay-Sachs and Sandhoff Disease). The Extension Phase evaluates the long-term safety and efficacy of IB1001 for the neuroprotective, disease-modifying treatment of GM2 Gangliosidosis. The Extension Phase was considered exploratory.
Detailed description
In the Parent Study, Patients will be assessed during three study phases: a baseline period, a 6-week treatment period, and a 6-week post-treatment washout period. If within 6 weeks prior to the initial screening visit, a patient has received any of the prohibited medications defined in the eligibility criteria (irrespective of the preceding treatment duration) a wash-out study-run-in of 6 weeks is required prior to the first baseline assessment. All patients will receive the study drug during the treatment period. For each individual patient, the Parent Study lasts for approximately 3.5 - 4 months during which there are 6 visits to the study site. This Extension Phase allows patients who have completed the Parent Study to, at the discretion of the Principal Investigator (PI), continue treatment with N-Acetyl-L-Leucine (IB1001). Patients will receive treatment with IB1001 for two one-year treatment periods, separated by a 6-week washout. All patients will receive the study drug during these two one-year treatment periods. For each individual patient, the Extension Phase lasts for approximately 25.5 months, during which there are 6 visits to the study site.
Interventions
IB1001 (N-Acetyl-L-Leucine) is a modified amino-acid ester that is orally administered.

Masking description
The primary evaluation of the Clinical Impression of Change in Severity (CI-CS; Primary Endpoint) will be performed by two independent neurologists whose assessments are based on videos of patient's performance on either the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or the 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) taken at each visit.
Intervention model description
In both the Parent Study and Extension Phase, patients will be assessed during three study phases: a baseline period (with or without a study run-in), a treatment period, and a washout period.

The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse). Change values were calculated for each period, i.e. treatment with IB1001 (comparing the end of treatment (Visit 4) with baseline (Visit 2)) and post-treatment washout (comparing the end of washout (Visit 6) with the end of treatment (Visit 4)). Then, the mean change obtained in the post-treatment period was subtracted from the mean change obtained for the treatment with IB1001 period, with a positive value indicating an improvement in the treatment period compared to the post-treatment washout period. |

| Key Secondary Endpoint: Change in Severity Based on Average CI-S | (CI-S comparing baseline period [average for Visit 1 and 2] and end of treatment period [average for Visit 3 and 4]) minus (change in CI-S between end of treatment period [average for Visit 3 and 4] and end of washout period [average for Visit 5 and 6]). | The Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider the severity of the patient at each visit. The Clinical Impression of Severity (CI-S)-assessment ranged from +3 =normal not ill at all to -3=among the most extremely ill patients . Change values were calculated for each period, i.e. treatment with IB1001 (change between the baseline period (average for Visit 1 and Visit 2) and end of treatment period (average for Visit 3 and Visit 4)) and post-treatment washout (between end of treatment period (average for Visit 3 and Visit 4) and end of washout period (average for Visit 5 and Visit 6). Then, the mean change in the post-treatment period was subtracted from the mean change in the treatment with IB1001 period. |
| Key Secondary Endpoint: CI-CS Score Reclassified on a 3-Point Scale | Baseline to end of treatment with IB1001 (Parent Study 6-weeks treatment); End of treatment with IB1001 to the end of post 6-week treatment washout | The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video? The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse). CI-CS scores \<0 were reclassified as worsened (-1), CI-CS scores 0 remained classified as not changed (0), and CI-CS scores \>0 were reclassified as improved (+1). When comparing Visit 4 versus Visit 2 and Visit 6 versus Visit 4, CI-CS scores \<0 were reclassified as worsened (-1), CI-CS scores 0 remained classified as not changed (0), and CI-CS scores \>0 were reclassified as improved (+1). |
| Key Secondary Endpoint: CI-CS Score for the Non-Primary Anchor Test | CI-CS of the non-primary anchor test was evaluated, comparing the CI-CS of Visit 4 (end of treatment) versus Visit 2 (baseline) and of Visit 6 (end of washout) versus Visit 4 (end of treatment) as done for the primary anchor test. | The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video?

| Spinocerebellar Ataxia Functional Index (SCAFI) [Schmitz-Hübsch et al, 2008] | Change values were calculated for each period, i.e. treatment with IB1001 (comparing the end of treatment (Visit 4) with baseline (Visit 2)) and post-treatment washout (comparing the end of washout (Visit 6) with the end of treatment (Visit 4)). | Spinocerebellar Ataxia Functional Index (SCAFI) is composed of 8 Meter Walk Test, 9-Hole Peg Test of Dominant and Non-Dominant Hand (9HPT-D/9HPT-ND) (the 3 tests are timed assessments; each is done twice and values are averaged; the 8MWT and 9HPT-D and 9HPT-ND values are converted from times to rates, and the results expressed as a composite Z-score of each test relative to baseline) and the PATA rate (counted number how often a patient can repeat the syllables PATA within 10 seconds), a measure of speech performance. The scores of these 3 were transformed to Z-scores (=individual's average of both trials to perform the respective task -mean of study population at baseline) / SD of study population at baseline). A Z-score of 0 equates to the population mean at baseline. For all 3, higher Z-scores (above mean) mean better performance. The SCAFI total score was calculated as the arithmetic mean of the non-missing Z-scores for the 3. A higher total score means better performance. |

Outcome results
Clinical Impression of Change in Severity (CI-CS) [Fields et al 2021]
The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video? The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse). Change values were calculated for each period, i.e. treatment with IB1001 (comparing the end of treatment (Visit 4) with baseline (Visit 2)) and post-treatment washout (comparing the end of washout (Visit 6) with the end of treatment (Visit 4)). Then, the mean change obtained in the post-treatment period was subtracted from the mean change obtained for the treatment with IB1001 period, with a positive value indicating an improvement in the treatment period compared to the post-treatment washout period.

Key Secondary Endpoint: Individual Components of the CI-CS
The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity assessment will instruct the blinded rater to consider: compared to the first video, how has the severity of their performance on the 9 Hole Peg Test of the Dominant Hand (9HPT-D) or 8 Meter Walk Test (8MWT) changed (improved or worsened) in 6-weeks as observed in the second video? The Clinical Impression of Change in Severity is evaluated on a 7 point Likert scale (+3=significantly improved to -3= significantly worse). Change values were calculated for each period, i.e. treatment with IB1001 (comparing the end of treatment (Visit 4) with baseline (Visit 2)) and post-treatment washout (comparing the end of washout (Visit 6) with the end of treatment (Visit 4)).

Spinocerebellar Ataxia Functional Index (SCAFI) [Schmitz-Hübsch et al, 2008]
Spinocerebellar Ataxia Functional Index (SCAFI) is composed of 8 Meter Walk Test, 9-Hole Peg Test of Dominant and Non-Dominant Hand (9HPT-D/9HPT-ND) (the 3 tests are timed assessments; each is done twice and values are averaged; the 8MWT and 9HPT-D and 9HPT-ND values are converted from times to rates, and the results expressed as a composite Z-score of each test relative to baseline) and the PATA rate (counted number how often a patient can repeat the syllables PATA within 10 seconds), a measure of speech performance. The scores of these 3 were transformed to Z-scores (=individual's average of both trials to perform the respective task -mean of study population at baseline) / SD of study population at baseline). A Z-score of 0 equates to the population mean at baseline. For all 3, higher Z-scores (above mean) mean better performance. The SCAFI total score was calculated as the arithmetic mean of the non-missing Z-scores for the 3. A higher total score means better performance.
Time frame: Change values were calculated for each period, i.e. treatment with IB1001 (comparing the end of treatment (Visit 4) with baseline (Visit 2)) and post-treatment washout (comparing the end of washout (Visit 6) with the end of treatment (Visit 4)).
Population: Modified Intention to Treat (mITT) Analysis Set is defined as all patients who receive at least one dose of the study drug and with one video recording during the baseline period (Visit 1 or 2, or both) and treatment period (Visit 3 or Visit 4, or both). The overall mITT comprised 29 participants.
