Open-label Study of SKY-GJB2 in Pediatric Subjects With GJB2-mediated Hearing Loss
Conditions: GJB2-mediated Hearing Loss, GJB2 Gene Mutation, DFNB1A
Sex: All
Ages: 9 Months – 7 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: PHASE1, PHASE2
Enrollment: 10
Sponsor: Skylark Bio Inc.
Location: National Institutes of Health-Clinical Center Bethesda Maryland
Summary
Skylark Bio is conducting a study of an investigational new drug called SKY-GJB2 and its delivery device, the SKY-CAT. SKY-GJB2 is a gene therapy that is being developed to treat children who have hearing loss due to changes in the GJB2 gene (also referred to as Connexin 26). The SKY-CAT is a device that delivers the gene therapy.
The purpose of this study is to:
Learn about the safety and tolerability (does not cause ongoing discomfort) of SKY-GJB2 Evaluate the efficacy of SKY-GJB2 (how well is works)
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
* Male or female aged 9 months to 7 years at the time of gene therapy administration
* Subjects must have at least two (biallelic) pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in the GJB2 gene
* Bilateral sensorineural hearing loss as assessed by ABR. Hearing loss at ≥85 dB HL for at least one of the frequencies (500-4000 Hz) in the study treatment ear.
* Subject's parent(s)/guardian(s) provide informed consent before the initiation of study-related procedures.
* Subject is able and willing to comply (or provide assent if old enough) will all study requirements.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Subject has non-GJB2 mediated hearing loss including genetic, syndromic, or non-syndromic hearing loss that is not associated with GJB2 mutations.
* Subject has autosomal dominant nonsyndromic hearing loss due to GJB2 mutation.
* No response on ABR testing.
* Bilateral Cochlear Implants.
