Study of AROSOD-1 in Adult Participants With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

In this Phase 1 adult symptomatic patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) carrying a superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene mutation thought to be causative of ALS, will receive single ascending doses of ARO-SOD1 administered by intrathecal (IT) infusion. The study is primarily intended to evaluate safety, but will also evaluate the effect of ARO-SOD1 on SOD1 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels as a biomarker of pharmacodynamic (PD) effect, therefore lumbar punctures will be required at timepoints throughout the study. After each participant has completed their individual final visit, participants whose SOD1 CSF levels have recovered to a satisfactory level may rescreen and enroll into higher dose cohorts; or if unable or unwilling to rescreen may enroll into an open-label study to be added by amendment when supported by nonclinical data for multidose administration.
