| Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Participants with SMA Type 1 as determined by diagnosis of SMA based on gene mutation
analysis with biallelic SMN1 mutations (deletion or point mutations) and one or 2
copies of SMN2 [inclusive of the known SMN2 gene modifier mutation (c.859G>C)]
- Participants must be < 6 months (< 180 days) of age at the time of onasemnogene
abeparvovec-xioi infusion
- Participants must have a swallowing evaluation test performed prior to administration
of gene replacement therapy
- Up-to-date on childhood vaccinations as per local health authorities.
- Parent(s)/legal guardian(s) willing and able to complete the informed consent process
and comply with trial procedures and visit schedule
Exclusion Criteria:
- Previous, planned or expected scoliosis repair surgery/procedure prior to 18 months of
age
- Use of invasive ventilatory support (tracheotomy with positive pressure) or pulse
oximetry < 95% saturation at screening:
1. Pulse oximetry saturation must not decrease = 4 percentage points between
screening and dosing with confirmatory oximetry reading
2. Participants may be put on non-invasive ventilatory support for less than 12
hours per day at the discretion of their physician or trial staff
- Use or requirement of non-invasive ventilatory support for greater than or equal to 12
hours daily in the two weeks prior to dosing
- Participant with signs of aspiration based on a swallowing test or whose
weight-for-age falls below the 3rd percentile based on World Health Organization (WHO)
Child Growth Standards and unwilling to use an alternative method to oral feeding
- Active viral infection (includes human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] or positive
serology for hepatitis B, C, or E, or known Zika virus infection)
- Serious non-respiratory tract illness requiring systemic treatment and/or
hospitalization within 2 weeks prior to screening
- Upper or lower respiratory infection requiring medical attention, medical
intervention, or increase in supportive care of any manner within 4 weeks prior to
screening
- Severe non-pulmonary/respiratory tract infection (eg, pyelonephritis, or meningitis)
within 4 weeks before administration of gene replacement therapy or concomitant
illness that, in the opinion of the Principal Investigator, creates unnecessary risks
for gene replacement such as:
1. Major renal or hepatic impairment
2. Known seizure disorder
3. Diabetes mellitus
4. Idiopathic hypocalcuria
5. Symptomatic cardiomyopathy
- Known allergy or hypersensitivity to prednisolone or other glucocorticosteroids or
their excipients, or human, animal biological raw materials (human transferrin, human
insulin, trypsin derived from porcine spleen, bovine derived protein (FBS, bovine
milk-derived Benzonase, casamino acid, bovine pancreas), HEK 293 cells, Cosmic Calf
Serum, HyQtase) used in manufacturing of onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi product
- Concomitant use of any of the following: drugs for treatment of myopathy or
neuropathy, agents used to treat diabetes mellitus, or ongoing immunosuppressive
therapy, plasmapheresis, immunomodulators such as adalimumab, or immunosuppressive
therapy within 3 months prior to gene replacement therapy (e.g., corticosteroids,
cyclosporine, tacrolimus, methotrexate, cyclophosphamide, IV immunoglobulin,
rituximab)
- Anti-AAV9 antibody titer > 1:50 as determined by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay
(ELISA) binding immunoassay. Should a potential participant demonstrate Anti-AAV9
antibody titer > 1:50, he or she may receive retesting within 30 days of the screening
period and will be eligible to participate if the Anti-AAV9 antibody titer upon
retesting is = 1:50
- Clinically significant abnormal laboratory values (gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase
[GGT], ALT, AST, total bilirubin > 2x the ULN, creatinine = 1.0 mg/dL, hemoglobin
[Hgb] < 8 or > 18 g/dL; white blood cell [WBC] > 20,000 per cmm) prior to gene
replacement therapy. Patients with an elevated bilirubin level that is unequivocally
the result of neonatal jaundice shall not be excluded
- Participation in recent SMA treatment clinical trial (with the exception of
observational cohort studies or non-interventional studies) or receipt of an
investigational or commercial compound, product or therapy administered with the
intent to treat SMA (e.g., nusinersen, valproic acid) at any time prior to screening
for this trial. Oral beta-agonists must be discontinued at least 30 days prior to
dosing. Inhaled albuterol specifically prescribed for the purposes of respiratory
(bronchodilator) management is acceptable and not a contraindication at any time prior
to screening for this trial
- Expectation of major surgical procedures during the trial assessment period (e.g.,
spinal surgery or tracheostomy)
- Parent(s)/legal guardian(s) unable or unwilling to comply with trial procedures or
inability to travel for repeat visits
- Parent(s)/legal guardian(s) unwilling to keep trial results/observations confidential
or to refrain from posting confidential trial results/observations on social media
sites
- Parent(s)/legal guardian(s) refuses to sign consent form
- Participants < 35 weeks gestational age at time of birth
