Phase 1/2 First-in-Human Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of MZ-1866, an AAV-9 Gene Therapy Delivered by Intracerebroventricular Injection to Participants With Pitt Hopkins Syndrome
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if MZ-1866 is a safe and tolerable treatment for children and adults with Pitt Hopkins Syndrome. To evaluate the safety of MZ-1866, the following will be evaluated: * frequency and severity of adverse events * physical exam, laboratory results and electrocardiogram findings Participants will: * receive a single dose of MZ-1866 by intracerebroventricular injection * be seen by the study physician and site staff periodically to assess changes to their health status * be periodically evaluated using neurodevelopmental tools Caregivers will: * be interviewed periodically about the health status and development of the participant * keep diaries and complete periodic questionnaires regarding participant symptoms
• The participant has a TCF4 gene mutation confirmed as pathogenic or likely pathogenic by whole exome sequencing, whole genome sequencing, gene panel, single gene testing, or microarray, performed at an accredited laboratory
• Clinical phenotype consistent with Pitt Hopkins Syndrome, in the opinion of the investigator
• The participant, or the participant's parent or legal guardian, is willing to provide access to prior medical records for the collection of demographics and diagnostic and treatment history
