About this trial

Phase 3, open-label study to assess the efficacy and safety of a single lumbar intrathecal administration of MELPIDA in individuals with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Type 50 (SPG50).

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male and females between the ages of 4 months to 72 months at the time of screening.

Molecularly-confirmed diagnosis of SPG50 (confirmed by a CLIA certified, CE-marked, or equivalent lab): Genomic DNA mutation analysis demonstrating bi-allelic pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in the AP4M1 gene.

Subjects must have features of neurologic dysfunction by clinical history and physical examination.

Stable doses of concomitant medications such as anti-spasticity medications, anti-seizure medications, behavioral management medications, sleep medications, and special diets, supplements, or nutritional support for at least 3 months prior to Screening. If recent changes (< 3 months) in medications, the subject may be allowed per Investigator judgement.
