A Phase 1, Blinded, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Ascending Doses of BIIB132 Administered Intrathecally to Adults With Spinocerebellar Ataxia 3
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of BIIB132 administered via intrathecal (IT) injection to participants with spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3). The secondary objective of this study is to characterize the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIIB132 administered via IT injection to participants with SCA3.
• Diagnosis of SCA3 with CAG repeats ≥60 in ATXN3 gene.
• Symptomatic ataxia with a screening Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score 3 to 15 (still ambulatory) and a minimum SARA gait subscore of 1.
• Able to ambulate 8 m independently without any assistive device.
• Treatment naïve or on a stable dose of symptomatic therapy for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to screening.
