Description

Summary

This is a study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of losmapimod in treating patients with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) over 48 weeks.

Official Title

A Phase 3 Global, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 48-Week, Parallel-Group Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Losmapimod in Treating Patients With Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) (Reach)

Details

Patients diagnosed with FSHD 1 and FSHD 2 will participate in this study for approximately 53 weeks. This will include a 4-week screening period, a 48-week, placebo-controlled treatment period and a 7-day safety follow-up period. Patients will be randomized to receive 15 mg of losmapimod or placebo twice daily by mouth for 48 weeks.

Eligibility

You can join if…

Open to people ages 18-65

  • Patients must be between 18 and 65 years of age, inclusive.
  • Genetically confirmed diagnosis of FSHD 1 or FSHD 2.
  • Clinical severity score of 2 to 4 (Ricci Score; Range 0-5), at screening. Patients who are wheelchair-dependent or dependent on walker or wheelchair for activities are not permitted to enroll in the study.
  • Screening total relative surface area (RSA) (Q1-Q4) without weight in the dominant upper extremities (UE) assessed by reachable workspace (RWS) ≥ 0.2 and ≤ 0.7.
  • No contraindications to MRI.

You CAN'T join if...

  • Previously diagnosed cancer that has not been in complete remission for at least 5 years. Localized carcinomas of the skin and carcinoma in situ of the cervix that have been resected or ablated for cure are not exclusionary.
  • Patients who are on drug(s) or supplements that may affect muscle function, as determined by the Investigator: patients must be on a stable dose of that drug(s) or supplement for at least 3 months prior to the first dose of study drug and remain on that stable dose for the duration of the study.
  • Orally administered CYP3A4 substrates and MATE and OAT3 substrates are not permitted as concomitant therapy during the administration of losmapimod (defined as baseline visit through end of study treatment).
  • Known active opportunistic or life-threatening infections including HIV and hepatitis B or C.
  • Known active or inactive tuberculosis infection.
  • Acute or chronic history of liver disease.
  • Known severe renal impairment.
  • History of cardiac dysrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmia treatment(s); or history or evidence of abnormal ECGs.
  • Use of another investigational product within 30 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) or currently participating in a study of an investigational device.
  • Current or anticipated participation in a natural history study. Previous participation is allowed but patients cannot continue after enrollment in Study 1821-FSH-301.
  • Known hypersensitivity to losmapimod or any of its excipients.
  • Previous participation in a Fulcrum-sponsored FSHD losmapimod study (FIS-001-2019 or FIS-002-2019).
