About this trial

The main goal of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of SPK-10001 in participants with Huntington's Disease.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Have confirmed huntingtin (HTT) cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) repeat length ≥40 on genetic testing and confirmation diagnostic test by the central laboratory (CL) at screening.

Have striatal atrophy demonstrated by caudate/intracranial volume less than the age-adjusted cutoff values associated with HDISS Stage 1.

Have UHDRS Total Motor Score (TMS) equal to or greater than the age-adjusted cutoff value associated with HDISS Stage 2.

Have UHDRS Total Functional Capacity (TFC) greater than or equal to 11.

Disqualifiers

A safe trajectory is not able to be identified for targeting placement of the cannula into the caudate or putamen on both sides of the brain due to extent of atrophy or other anatomical features.

Have received an antisense oligonucleotide therapy during the past year.

History of deep brain stimulation.

History of or intention to undergo gene therapy, cell transplantation, or brain surgery during the course of the study.
