Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to provide further confirmatory evidence of clinical benefit in LPLD patients treated with alipogene tiparvovec by assessing both the "clinical response" (as defined by a range of parameters), and "the metabolic response" (postprandial CM metabolism) in LPLD patients with and without an immunosuppressant regimen.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective, interventional, randomised, open-label, parallel group study evaluating the clinical response as well as the dynamics of postprandial chylomicron metabolism in patients treated with alipogene tiparvovec with and without immunosuppressants. The study will be conducted in 12 LPLD patients who will be randomised into the Immuno+ (cyclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil) or the Immuno- group.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

alipogene tiparvovec with IS

Patients in the Immuno+ group will receive an immunosuppressant regimen to be initiated three days prior to alipogene tiparvovec administration. The regimen is to be continued for 12 weeks: Cyclosporins (3 mg/kg/day) and mycophenolate mofetil (2 x 1 g/day). Patients will receive IV bolus of 1mg/kg of methyl Prednisolone half an hour prior to IMP administration.

Group Type OTHER

alipogene tiparvovec

Intervention Type DRUG

A dose of 1x10(\*12) gc/kg alipogene tiparvovec (Glybera) of body weight administered as a single set of intramuscular injections at multiple sites in multiple muscles of both upper legs and if necessary, the lower legs.

Prednisolone

Intervention Type DRUG

IV bolus methylprednisolone 1mg/kg half hour prior to administration

Cyclosporins

Intervention Type DRUG

Immuno + group will receive cyclosporine (3 mg/kg/day) from three days prior to until 12 weeks following IMP administration

Mycophenolate mofetil

Intervention Type DRUG

Immuno + group will receive Mycophenolate mofetil (2x 1 g/day) from three days prior to until 12 weeks following IMP administration

alipogene tiparvovec without IS

Patients in the Immuno- group will not receive an immunosuppressant regimen during 12 weeks. Patients will receive IV bolus of 1mg/kg of methyl Prednisolone half an hour prior to IMP administration.

Group Type OTHER

alipogene tiparvovec

Intervention Type DRUG

A dose of 1x10(\*12) gc/kg alipogene tiparvovec (Glybera) of body weight administered as a single set of intramuscular injections at multiple sites in multiple muscles of both upper legs and if necessary, the lower legs.

Prednisolone

Intervention Type DRUG

IV bolus methylprednisolone 1mg/kg half hour prior to administration
