Research summary
This is a randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study in adult patients with Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). DM1 is a rare, progressive, neuromuscular disease, characterized by many symptoms including prolonged muscle contractions (myotonia), and muscle weakness that gets worse over time and may lead to physical disabilities. DM1 is estimated to affect approximately 1 in 3,000 to 8,000 people worldwide.\n \nThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of the study drug (also called DYNE101). All participants will undergo a Screening Period to assess eligibility, and a Placebo-Controlled Period. Participants will be randomised to DYNE101 or Placebo. After the Placebo-Controlled Period, all participants will enter a Treatment Period and then Long Term Extension (LTE), where all participants will receive treatment with study drug. \n \nAll participants will be closely monitored during study drug administration. Study procedures include physical examinations, blood and urine samples, measures of heart and lung function, muscle biopsies, and motor function assessments. Up to 64 patients will participate in the study worldwide.
