Lead Sponsor:

Biogen

Conditions:

Muscular Atrophy, Spinal

Eligibility:

All Genders

Up to 42 years

Phase:

PHASE3

Brief Summary

In this study, researchers will learn more about the effects and safety of BIIB115, also known as salanersen. Specifically, researchers will learn more about how salanersen works in babies who have b...

Detailed Description

For Part 1 of the study, the primary objective is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of salanersen in participants with genetically diagnosed SMA, and the secondary objective is to evaluate safety and ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Key
  • ≤42 days of age at first dose of salanersen.
  • Genetic documentation of 5q SMA homozygous gene deletion or mutation or compound heterozygous mutation.
  • Two or three copies of the survival motor neuron 2 (SMN2) gene.
  • Ulnar compound muscle action potential (CMAP) amplitude ≥2 millivolt (mV) at Screening and Day 1 predose.
  • Body weight ≥3rd percentile for age based on World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards at the time of informed consent.
  • Key

Exclusion

  • Any clinical signs or symptoms at Screening or Day 1 predose that are, in the opinion of the Investigator, strongly suggestive of SMA.
  • Areflexia on neurologic examination at biceps, knee, or ankle at Screening or Day 1 Predose.
  • Hypoxemia (oxygen saturation \<96% awake or asleep without any supplemental oxygen or respiratory support, or for altitudes \>1000 meters (m), oxygen saturation of \<92% awake or asleep without any supplemental oxygen or respiratory support).
  • Diagnosis of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome necessitating surfactant replacement therapy or invasive ventilatory support.
  • Any reason, anatomical or otherwise (including hematology/coagulation laboratory results), that presents increased risk of complication from the LP procedures or safety assessments.
  • Any prior treatment with an approved SMA disease-modifying therapy (e.g., nusinersen, onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi \[OA\], and/or risdiplam), a myostatin inhibitor therapy, or an investigational drug given for the treatment of SMA.
  • Note: Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria will apply.
