Tests treatment safety and results for Muscular Atrophy, Spinal
Official title A Study Evaluating the Effectiveness and Safety of Risdiplam Administered as an Early Intervention in Pediatric Participants With Spinal Muscular Atrophy After Gene Therapy
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05861986
What this study is testing
What is Risdiplam?
Risdiplam is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for muscular atrophy, spinal.
Also referred to as RO7034067.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is an open-label, single-arm, multicenter clinical study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of risdiplam administered as an early intervention in pediatric participants with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and 2 SMN2 copies who have previously received onasemnogene abeparvovec. Participants are children \< 2 years of age genetically diagnosed with SMA.
- Phase 4: studies an already-approved treatment
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
