About this trial

This is a Phase 1/Phase 2 open-label single arm, multicenter, and multinational study with SAR446268 for treatment of male and female participants 10 to 55 years old with non-congenital myotonic dystrophy (DM) type 1 (DM1).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SAR446268 in knocking down dystrophia myotonica protein kinase (DMPK) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels and improving neuromuscular function in DM1 participants receiving a single intravenous (IV) administration of SAR446268. The study consists of a dose escalation part (Part A) during which single ascending doses of SAR446268 will be evaluated in 3 distinct cohorts and an optional fourth dose cohort. Once a safe and effective dose is identified, additional participants will be treated in Part B, the dose expansion phase of the study.

The study duration will be 112 weeks (approximately 2 years) for each participant in Parts A and B respectively and includes an optional pre-screening period, approximately 8-week screening phase and a 104-week follow-up period post-SAR446268 administration.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Part A and Part B: Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) following SAR446268 administration

Number of TEAEs post-SAR446268 administration

Time frame
Baseline to Week 52
2

Part B: Proportion of participants with at least 40% DMPK mRNA knockdown in muscle biopsy at Weeks 12 and 52 following SAR446268 administration

Time frame
Weeks 12 and 52

Secondary outcomes

1

Part A: Change in 10-meter walk-run test from baseline to Weeks 26 and 52 following SAR446268 administration

The 10-meter walk-run test is a mobility test that measures how fast a participant can traverse 10 meters with or without assisted devices.

Time frame
Baseline to Week 26 and 52
2

Part A: Change in myotonia from baseline to Weeks 26 and 52 following SAR446268 administration as measured by the hand opening time (middle finger)

This test for myotonia measures how quickly a participant can open his/her hand after making a tight fist.

Time frame
Baseline to Week 26 and 52
3

Part A: Change in bilateral hand grip test from baseline to Weeks 26 and 52 following SAR446268 administration

This test for strength of the hand muscles measures the maximum force generated by a participant's hand grip using a dynamometer.

Time frame
Baseline to Week 26 and 52
4

Part A: Proportion of participants with at least 40% DMPK mRNA knockdown in muscle biopsy at Weeks 12 and 52 following SAR446268 administration

Time frame
Weeks 12 and 52
