A Long-Term Extension Study of AT2101 (Afegostat Tartrate) in Type 1 Gaucher Patients

Amicus Therapeutics8 enrolled

Overview

This study evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy of afegostat tartrate in participants with Gaucher disease who were enrolled in a previous Phase 2 study of afegostat tartrate.

This was an open-label, long-term extension study of afegostat tartrate in participants with type 1 Gaucher disease who successfully completed Study GAU-CL-202 (NCT00446550). Participants could enter the study immediately upon completion of participation in the lead-in study GAU-CL-202, or at any later time point. Participants received 225 milligram (mg) afegostat tartrate, administered orally for 30 months, and remained in 1 of the 2 randomized treatment regimens of Study GAU-CL-202: afegostat tartrate once daily (QD) for 3 consecutive days, then no afegostat tartrate for 4 consecutive days (consecutive 3-days-on/4-days-off) or QD for 7 consecutive days, then no afegostat tartrate for 7 days (consecutive 7-days-on/7-days-off). Amendment 2 removed the 7-days-on/7-days-off regimen and added an alternative 3-days-on/4-days-off regimen: afegostat tartrate QD on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, then no afegostat tartrate on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday (MWF 3-days-on/4-days-off). Once Amendment 2 was implemented at a site, participants assigned to the 7-days-on/7-days-off regimen switched to a 3-days-on/4-days-off regimen; those on the original 3-days-on/4-days-off regimen could switch to the MWF 3-days-on/4-days-off regimen. Amendment 4 removed the original 3-days-on/4-days-off regimen and any participants still on that regimen switched to the MWF 3-days-on/4-days-off regimen. Study visits occurred every 3 months for 30 months. Participants were contacted approximately 1, 3, and 6 months after the end of treatment (EOT) or early termination for follow-up assessments.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Number Of Participants Who Experienced Severe Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

A TEAE was defined as any adverse event (AE) with start date on or after administration of study drug or pre-existing conditions that worsened on or after the start of the first study drug administration (on Day 1). A severe AE defined as an AE that was incapacitating and required medical intervention. The number of participants who experienced 1 or more severe TEAEs after dosing on Day 1 through the end of follow-up is presented. A summary of serious and all other non-serious AEs regardless of causality is located in the Reported Adverse Events module.

Time frame: Day 1 (after dosing) through end of follow-up (6 months after EOT)

Secondary Outcomes

Change From Baseline To EOT In Volume Of Spleen As Assessed By Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Standard MRI procedures were used to measure the volume of the spleen. The baseline value was defined as the value recorded on Days 1 to 3 of the study (certain values could have been carried over from the last assessment in the lead-in study, GAU-CL-202). A negative change from Baseline indicates that spleen volume decreased.

Time frame: Baseline, Month 30

Change From Baseline To EOT In Volume Of Liver As Assessed By MRI

Standard MRI procedures were used to measure the volume of the liver. The baseline value was defined as the value recorded on Days 1 to 3 of the study (certain values could have been carried over from the last assessment in the lead-in study, GAU-CL-202). A negative change from Baseline indicates that liver volume decreased.

Time frame: Baseline, Month 30
