E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. ≥ 18 years of age 2. Signed, written informed consent 3. Diagnosis of Fabry disease 4. One or more of the following symptoms: i) cornea verticillata, ii) acroparesthesia, iii) anhidrosis, iv) angiokeratoma 5. Subjects who are on ERT or are ERT-naïve or are ERT-pseudo-naïve (defined as not having received ERT treatment during the 6 months prior to baseline). For subjects receiving ERT, ERT must have been administered at a stable dose and regimen for at least 6 months (defined as not having missed more than 3 doses of ERT during the 6 months prior to consent). 6. Subjects on migalastat (Galafold™) must agree to withdraw migalastat prior to Baseline and, if non-responder to migalastat (based on clinical and/or biochemical assessments), undergo an incisional skin biopsy and kidney biopsy. 7. Male subjects must refrain from sperm donation from the time of ST-920 administration until a minimum of 3 consecutive semen samples are negative for AAV2/6 after administration of ST-920 and a minimum of 90 days after ST-920 administration. 8. Subjects must agree to use a highly effective form of contraception from the time of ST-920 administration until a minimum of 90 days after ST-920 administration and a minimum of 3 consecutive semen samples are negative for AAV2/6 after administration of ST-920. Highly effective birth control methods include: a. a documented vasectomy or permanent sterilization b. condom c. sexual abstinence is acceptable only as true abstinence and when in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g. calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception 9. Subject must be fully vaccinated (as per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) definition in the US and as per local guidelines in other countries) for COVID-19 at least one month prior to dosing 10. Renal function (not applicable for Renal cohort): a. eGFR ≥60 ml/min/1.73m2 b. <1 g/g urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) determined in a morning urine spot sample (and also determined by 24 hour urine analysis if the UACR is >500 mg/g) Additional inclusion criteria for: Cohorts 1-4b: 11. Male subjects with classical Fabry disease as defined by <5% α-Gal A activity in either plasma or leukocytes. a. For male subjects who do not have documented diagnostic αGal A activity, a blood sample will be taken to measure αGal A activity (in plasma). For subjects who are on ERT, this blood draw must be taken at least 13 days after their last ERT infusion (trough) b. If the subject’s α-Gal A activity is >5% and the subject is on ERT, this level of enzyme activity may be due to residual α-Gal A activity from the last ERT infusion. In this case, the diagnosis of classical Fabry disease may be confirmed if the following three criteria are fulfilled: i. two or more documented symptomatic characteristics outlined in inclusion criterion #4. If there is documented clustered periumbilicial angiokeratoma, this symptom alone is sufficient as it is a pathognomonic sign of classical Fabry disease; ii. a mutation that is indicative of classical Fabry (i.e. listed in a database, such as http://dbfgp.org); and iii. the α-Gal A activity at trough is below the lower limit of the normal range of the assay Renal and Cardiac cohorts: 12. Symptomatic Fabry disease defined for male subjects by <30% α-Gal A activity in either plasma or leukocytes AND Renal cohort: 13. Screening eGFR value between 40-90 mL/min/1.73 m² 14. Linear negative eGFR slope (estimated from at least 3 historical serum creatinine values [within 18 months, including the value obtained during screening visit]) of ≥ 2mL/min/1.73 m²/year Cardiac cohort: 15. Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in 2D echocardiography or CMR defined as an end diastolic septum and posterior wall thickness ≥12mm with no other explanation for LVH, OR presentation with cardiac changes indicative of disease progression such as decreased global longitudinal strain on 2D strain echocardiography or low native T1 mapping on CMR |
