Brief summary

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of repeated doses of intravenously administered ARCT-810.

Detailed description

This study is a Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled study of ARCT-810 in people living with OTC deficiency 12 years of age and older. After an at least 4 week screening and diet stabilization period, participants will be randomized 3:1 to receive ARCT-810 or placebo. Following the first dose and safety evaluation, participants will receive up to an additional 5 doses of ARCT-810 or placebo, each separated by 14 days. The treatment period is followed by a 12-week observation period.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALARCT-810

ARCT-810 is messenger RNA (mRNA) coding for Ornithine Transcarbamylase (OTC) formulated in a lipid nanoparticle (LNP).

Intervention model description

On Day 1, participants will receive a single dose of Study Drug via intravenous infusion. If the safety observations are considered acceptable, that participant will enter the multiple-dose portion of the study in which they will receive a further 5 doses of Study Drug on Days 15, 29, 43, 57 and 71.
