About this trial

The purpose of this study is to learn about the effects of an investigational medicine, PGN-EDODM1, to see how safe and tolerable multiple administrations of PGN-EDODM1 are for people with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) compared to placebo.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Confirmed diagnosis of DM1, as defined as having a repeat sequence in the DMPK gene with at least 100 CTG repeats

Presence of myotonia

Have sufficient muscle mass in bilateral tibialis anterior (TA) muscles that a needle biopsy can safely be performed

Body Mass Index (BMI) of < 35.0 kg/m²

Disqualifiers

Congenital DM1

Known history or presence of any clinically significant conditions that may interfere with study safety assessments

Abnormal laboratory tests at screening considered clinically significant by the Investigator

Medications specific for the treatment of myotonia within 2 weeks prior to screening
