Brief summary
This is the first study of branaplam in adults with Huntington's Disease (HD) to determine the correct dose required to lower mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT) levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to a degree expected to be efficacious over longer periods of time.
Detailed description
This study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with a variable duration (between approximately 17 weeks to approximately 53 weeks) for the core period and a one-year open label extension (OLE) in early-stage manifest Huntington's disease (HD) participants. After screening period and baseline assessments, the following two Treatment Periods were planned: • The core period consisted of a 17-week double-blind, placebo-controlled, Dose Range Finding (DRF) portion of the study, followed by a blinded extension (BE) of variable duration (up to approximately 53 weeks). The DRF Period was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetivs (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of branaplam, as well as determine the optimal dose(s) to explore in further clinical evaluations. The core period was planned to consist of 3 treatment arms: * Cohort 1: Treatment Arm A: branaplam 56 mg oral solution or matching placebo, once weekly * Cohort 2: Treatment Arm B: branaplam 112 mg oral solution or matching placebo, once weekly * Cohort 3: Treatment Arm C: branaplam 154 mg oral solution or matching placebo, once weekly or Treatment Arm X: branaplam 84 mg oral solution or matching placebo, once weekly or Treatment Arm Y: branaplam 28 mg oral solution or matching placebo, once weekly • The OLE was a one-year open-label extension to assess both long-term safety and tolerability, as well as the efficacy of the recommended optimal dose(s) for branaplam. Due to safety concerns an urgent safety measure (USM) follow-up notification dated 06-Dec-2022 was issued to permanently discontinue the study treatment in all participants. At that point, only cohort 1 was enrolled. Therefore, only cohort 1 data is available for analysis (Treatment Arm A: branaplam 56 mg oral solution or matching placebo, once weekly). Participants who received active treatment (branaplam) were to remain in the study for follow-up for approximately one year following initial treatment discontinuation. The OLE part was not opened.
Interventions
messenger ribonucleic acid (RNA) splicing modifier. Branaplam was administered as an oral solution once weekly.
Matching placebo oral solution once weekly

Study design
Masking description
This was a randomized double blind study. Participants were planned to be randomized in an equal randomization rate among the open treatment arms, and then in a 4:1 ratio for active vs. placebo within each arm.
Intervention model description
The study design used a staggered cohort approach, allowing safety and tolerability of lower doses to be assessed before randomizing subjects to higher doses. At the time of the Cohort Gating Assessments (CGAs), all available data was reviewed from a safety and dose finding perspective by an independent Sponsor team to support the decision to open the next cohort. The independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) reviewed the data separately. The decision to open a new cohort was planned to be made by the Sponsor in consultation with the DMC.

Number of Participants With NfL Increase and Recovery
Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a neuronal cytoplasmic protein highly expressed in large calibre myelinated axons. Its levels increase in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum in case of axonal damage in a variety of neurological disorders. The levels of NfL were determined in serum and CSF and the following 3 categories were defined: * Serum NfL (sNfL) increase: \> 100 pg/mL or \> 2 x baseline (BL) sNfL * sNfL recovery: Worsening criteria are no longer met (sNfL \<= 100 pg/mL or sNfL \<= 2 x BL sNfL) for visits after last visit with increase * CSF NfL increase: \> 10000 pg/mL or \> 2 x BL CSF NfL or \> 2 x CSF NfL of the previous assessment
Time frame: From baseline (before first dose of study treatment) up to Week 17 (CSF) and Week 69 (serum)
