Last Updated: 2024-06-17

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: RECRUITING
• Clinical Phase: EARLY_PHASE1
• Total Enrollment: 13 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2024-04-01
• Study Completion Date: 2025-12-31

Brief Summary

This study is a single arm, open, single dose escalation trial aimed at evaluating the safety and tolerability of YOLT-101 administration in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia; Determination of YOLT-101 OBD; Preliminary evaluation of the effects of single administration of YOLT-101 on plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels.

Note: OBD is defined as the dosage at which plasma PCSK9 protein levels decrease between 60% and 95% from baseline on the 28th day after YOLT-101 administration. OBD ≤ Maximum Tolerable Dose (MTD).

Detailed Description

In this study, the longest screening period for the main study was 42 days, the treatment day was Day 1 (D1), and the safe follow-up period was up to 52 weeks after medication. In the main study, when OBD occurs, additional subjects will be added to the dose group (specific number of cases will be negotiated between the cooperating organization and investigators) for further validation. In addition, subjects in the first dose group can voluntarily receive a second drug administration of OBD level.

After the completion of the main study, participants will undergo long-term follow-up. According to the Technical Guidelines for Long term Follow up Clinical Research of Gene Therapy Products (Trial) released by CDE, a long-term follow-up until 15 years after the medicine administration is required .

During screening, subjects must meet the following laboratory standards: 5.1 Blood routine: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 × 109/L, platelet count (PLT) ≥ 100 × 109/L, hemoglobin count (HGB) ≥ 90 g/dL; 5.2 Liver function: aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) < 2.0 × ULN, total bilirubin (TBIL) ≤ 1.5 × ULN; 5.3 Renal function: Serum creatinine (Cr) ≤ 1.5 × ULN, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR)>60mL/min * 1.73m2; 5.4 Coagulation function: prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), international standardized ratio (INR)<1.5 x ULN; 5.5 Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) ≥ 4.21mmol/L, and fasting triglycerides<5.6mmol/L.

6. The subjects and their partners must take effective contraceptive measures during the participation in this study until 6 months after the end of the main study.

7. The subject must agree not to accept other lipid-lowering drugs for at least 28 days after receiving the investigational drug.

8. Voluntarily sign informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Those who have used any prescription drugs that affect blood lipid metabolism within at least 14 days before receiving the study drug (or within 7 half lives of the drug, whichever is longer, applicable to small molecule/small nuclear acid drugs) or within 3 months (applicable to biological agents such as PCSK9 inhibitors), or who have used any over-the-counter drugs that affect blood lipid metabolism within at least 14 days before receiving the study drug (such as Chinese medicine/traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations, vitamins, fish oil (>1000mg/day), drugs containing red koji rice or health products, etc.), (Exception of those who have received stable non-cyclical hormone replacement therapy for more than 8 weeks and agree not to change the hormone treatment more than 28 days after the study drug administration); individuals who have participated in clinical studies of other lipid-lowering drugs and have accepted the investigational drugs within 6 months before the screening period.

2. Poorly controlled hypertensive patients who have receive conventional treatments (systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 160mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥ 100mmHg).

3. Poorly controlled diabetes patients (glycosylated hemoglobin>8.5%).
