The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ION363 on clinical function and survival in carriers of fused in sarcoma mutations with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FUS-ALS).
This is a multi-center, three-part study of ION363 in up to 95 participants. Part 1 will consist of participants who will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive a multi-dose regimen of ION363 or placebo for a period of 60 weeks, followed by Part 2, in which participants will receive open-label ION363 for a period of 84 weeks. Participants may continue to receive open-label ION363 in Part 3 for up to 3 additional years or until ION363 becomes commercially available in the patient's country or until the Sponsor discontinues the ION363 development program, whichever occurs earlier.

Change from Baseline (Day 1) through Study Day 505 in Part 1 in functional impairment
Functional impairment to be measured by joint rank analysis of the combined assessment of: In-clinic Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) total score, time of rescue or discontinuation from Part 1 and entering Part 2 due to a deterioration in function, and ventilation assistance-free survival (VAFS). ALSFRS-R measures functional disease severity. The scale measures four functional domains, bulbar function, gross motor skills, fine motor skills, and respiratory function. The assessment will contain 12 questions scored from 0 (no function) to 4 (full function), with a total possible score of 48, which will indicate the highest level of function. ALSFRS-R will be a part of the combined assessment of joint rank analysis to assess efficacy in Part 1.
