E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary endpoint of this study is safety and tolerability of SBC-103 in
subjects with MPS IIIB. The safety assessments will include the following:

associated reactions (IAR)s;
• Changes from baseline in clinical laboratory tests (hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis) and CSF findings (cell counts, glucose, and protein);

• Changes in vital signs during and post-infusion, relative to pre-infusion values;
• Physical examination findings;
• Use of concomitant medications/therapies;
• Assessment of ADAs, including seroconversion rate, time to seroconversion, and ADA titer by time point, peak ADA titer, and ADA titer status (positive/negative), and the effect of ADAs on the safety of SBC-103, including the relationship between ADA-
