E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
• To test the hypothesis that clonazepam administration has acute beneficial effects compared to placebo on neurocognitive tests. • To test the hypothesis that multiple-doses clonazepam has beneficial effects compared to placebo on behaviour and cognitive function in ARID1B patients as measured by the ABC, and CGI-I scale. • Assess safety and tolerability of clonazepam in ARID1B patients. • To assess the potential of at-home neurocognitive tests for the evaluation of treatment effects in children with neurodevelopmental disorders. • To assess and compare the difference in predictive capability between linear and nonlinear (NONMEM) regression of the saliva:plasma relationship.
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Assess safety and tolerability of clonazepam in ARID1B patients.
|
|
E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
Part A, saliva PK. • Healthy male or female volunteers • Informed consent provided by volunteer
Part B, ARID1B patients. • Informed consent provided by both parents, or the legal guardian prior to any study mandated procedure. • Known mutation in ARID1B • Assent provided by the participant. • Aged 6 years or older
|
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Part A • Disorder that could interfere with saliva production. • Known hypersensitivity to clonazepam, other benzodiazepines or other excipients of the study medication. • Treatment with another investigational drug within 3 months prior to screening or more than 4 times a year. • History or clinical evidence of any disease and/or existence of a surgical or medical condition which might interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of the study drug. • History of severe respiratory problems or severe liver- or renal insufficiency. • Other medical or psychosocial history making the participant unsuitable for participation as determined by the treating paediatrician. • History or clinical evidence of alcoholism within the 3-year period prior to screening (i.e. regular use of more than 21 units of alcohol/week). • Clinically significant findings on physical examination. • Medications with a strong influence on CYP3A4 metabolism • Subjects with a BMI > 30 and/or cardiovascular, respiratory or immune system disorders
Part B, ARID1B patients. • Clear indication of not wanting to participate during the study • Use of benzodiazepines or any other medication or drug with the potential to influence study related endpoints in the investigator’s opinion (including e.g. CYP3A4-related drugs). • Known hypersensitivity to clonazepam, other benzodiazepines or other excipients of the study medication. • History of severe respiratory problems or severe liver- or renal insufficiency. • Other medical or psychosocial history making the participant unsuitable for participation as determined by the treating paediatrician.
