Eligibility Criteria

3 Years - 16 Years (Child)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Must have completed 48 weeks in Study 190-201.
  • Is willing and able to provide written, signed informed consent. Or, in the case of patients under the age of 18 (or other age as defined by regional law or regulation), provide written assent (if required) and have written informed consent, signed by a legally authorized representative, after the nature of the study has been explained, and prior to performance of research-related procedures.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

BMN190 recombinant human tripeptidyl peptidase-1 (rhTPP1)

Arm Description

All 190-202 study subjects administered BMN 190 300 mg by continuous Intracerebroventricular (ICV) infusion at a rate of 2.5 mL/hour for approximately 4 hours) every 14 days.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Probability of Unreversed 2-point Decline in Motor-language (ML) Score or Score of 0
Motor and Language are each 0-3 point subscales in which 3 represents best function and 0 represents loss of function. Thus, the 0-6 point ML score was used as the primary mode of evaluation of loss of function. In 190-201, the primary endpoint was a responder endpoint: unreversed ML 2-point decline or score of 0 at Week 48 compared to the 50% rate expected in natural history using the 1-sample binomial test. For 190-202, the primary endpoint was revised to assess response over the full duration of follow-up. It is not clear, given the variable follow-up much greater than 48 weeks, what response rate is expected in natural history. For this reason, the assessment of the primary endpoint is based on comparing to natural history data and using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model with covariate adjustment (i.e., baseline ML score and age as continuous covariates, and genotype [common alleles] and sex as categorical covariates).
Probability of Unreversed Motor-language (ML) Score of Zero.
Motor and Language are each 0-3 point subscales in which 3 represents best function and 0 represents loss of function. Thus, the 0-6 point ML score was used as the primary mode of evaluation of loss of function. In 190-201, the primary endpoint was a responder endpoint: unreversed ML 2-point decline or score of 0 at Week 48 compared to the 50% rate expected in natural history using the 1-sample binomial test. For 190-202, the primary endpoint was revised to assess response over the full duration of follow-up. It is not clear, given the variable follow-up much greater than 48 weeks, what response rate is expected in natural history. For this reason, the assessment of the primary endpoint is based on comparing to natural history data and using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model with covariate adjustment (baseline ML score, age, genotype [common alleles], and sex).

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The Phase 1/2 study (190-201) evaluated the efficacy and safety of a 300 mg dose of BMN 190 administered every other week (qow) to patients with CLN2. The dose and regimen for this study (190-202) are based on the results of the 190-201 study. The rationale for this phase 2 extension study is to provide patients who complete the 190-201 study with the option to continue BMN 190 treatment. The 190-202 study is an open label extension protocol to assess long-term safety and efficacy.
Detailed Description
BMN 190 is a recombinant form of human tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TPP1), the enzyme deficient in patients with CLN2 disease (also known as classical late-infantile CLN2, cLINCL, or Jansky-Bielschowsky disease), a form of Batten Disease. As an enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), BMN 190 is designed to help restore TPP1 enzyme activity. The Phase 1/2 study (190-201) evaluated the efficacy and safety of a 300 mg dose of BMN 190 administered every other week (qow) to patients with CLN2. The dose and regimen for this study (190-202) are based on the results of the 190-201 study. The rationale for this phase 2 extension study is to provide patients who complete the 190-201 study with the option to continue BMN 190 treatment. The 190-202 study is an open label extension protocol to assess long-term safety and efficacy.

7. Study Design

Primary Purpose
Treatment
Study Phase
Phase 1, Phase 2
Interventional Study Model
Single Group Assignment
Model Description
Because of practical (limited number of available patients) and ethical (neurosurgery in children with fatal neurologic disease) concerns, this study design could not involve contemporaneous, matched, randomized, blinded, or untreated control subjects. As such, data from the DEM-CHILD Multi-Center Clinical NCL Database at the University Medical Center in Hamburg, Germany (NCT04613089) was used as a control group (i.e., Natural History [NH] comparator) to determine the primary efficacy outcome measures for this study. The NH comparator was comprised of subjects from the DEM-CHILD database who satisfied the 190-201 inclusion criterion: Age ≥ 3, and at least one ML score ≥ 3 at age ≥ 3 years and further, who had at least two CLN2 assessments with values within the range 1 - 5 and at least 6 months apart.
