Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - ETX101

Experimental: Cohort X - Cohort X will evaluate ETX101 dose level 1.

Experimental: Cohort Y - Cohort Y will evaluate ETX101 dose level 2.

Experimental: Cohort Z - Cohort Z will evaluate ETX101 dose level 3.


Treatment: Drugs: ETX101
ETX101 is composed of a non-replicating, recombinant adeno-associated viral serotype 9 (rAAV9) vector used to deliver a GABAergic regulatory element (reGABA) and an engineered transcription factor that increases transcription of the SCN1A gene (eTFSCN1A).

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 0 0
Proportion of participants experiencing any treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), related AEs, AEs with severity Grade = 3, AEs resulting in study discontinuation, and AEs with a fatal outcome.
Timepoint [1] 0 0
Day 1 through Study Completion, an average of 5 years
Primary outcome [2] 0 0
Percent change from Baseline in monthly countable seizure frequency (MCSF) at Week 52, with countable seizures defined as generalized tonic-clonic/clonic, focal motor with clearly observable clinical signs, tonic bilateral, and atonic seizures.
Timepoint [2] 0 0
Between the 8-week baseline period and the 48-week post-dosing assessment period (defined as Week 5 to Week 52 following administration of ETX101)
Primary outcome [3] 0 0
Proportion of participants free from episodes of prolonged seizures and/or status epilepticus at Week 52.
Timepoint [3] 0 0
Week 5 through Week 52
Secondary outcome [1] 0 0
Proportion of participants with = 90% reduction in monthly countable seizure frequency (MCSF) from Baseline at Week 52.
Timepoint [1] 0 0
Between the 8-week baseline period and the 48-week post-dosing assessment period (defined as Week 5 to Week 52 following administration of ETX101)
Secondary outcome [2] 0 0
Change from Baseline in the Vineland-Third Edition Expressive Communication raw score at Week 52.
Timepoint [2] 0 0
Baseline through Week 52. Higher scores correspond to better outcomes.
