Brief Summary

This is the first clinical study of VY-HTT01, a gene therapy for early-stage Huntington's Disease (HD) patients. The primary goal of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VY-HTT01. This study is a first in human study, Phase 1b, open-label, randomized, multicenter, dose escalation study with a delayed treatment control arm.

Detailed Description

This dose escalation trial will evaluate the safety and tolerability of 4 single dose levels of VY-HTT01. The maximum duration that a subject randomized to treatment may be involved in the study is up to 15 months. Delayed treatment subjects will be followed for a minimum of 6 months as a control before moving up into the treatment arm in the next cohort. The maximum duration that a delayed treatment subject may be involved in the study is up to 24 months. Subjects who participate in this study will be asked to enroll in a long-term observation study.
