Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Efficacy of PLX-200 in CLN3 as assessed by the change in the motor score of the Hamburg Rating Scale compared with that of the Placebo group
60 weeks

The change from baseline in the motor score of the Hamburg Rating Scale at Week 60 of maintenance therapy in participants treated with PLX-200 compared with that of Placebo group. Baseline is defined as the motor score of the Hamburg Rating Scale assessment prior to starting drug or Placebo group in the Titration Period. The Hamburg Rating Scale records a rating of 0 - 3 in four domains: motor skills, vision, language, and seizures, all from 0 - 3 which is worse to normal, respectively, with a minimum (worse) score of 0 to a maximum (normal) score of 12.

Number of patients with treatment-related adverse events, as assessed by CTCAE v5.0, abnormal laboratory results, and abnormal cardiovascular and/or abdominal findings.
96 weeks

The aggregate of clinical chemistries, hematology, urinalysis, electrocardiogram readings, abdominal ultrasound findings, and tabulation of the number and severity of adverse events will be compared with baseline values throughout the study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PLX-200 at escalating oral doses in children with CLN3 disease.

Secondary Endpoints

Efficacy of PLX in each of the domains of the Hamburg Scale
24, 48, 60, 72 and 96 weeks
Assessment of the overall decline status in subjects treated with PLX-200 compared with the placebo group
60 and 96 weeks

Frequently asked questions about PLX-200

What is PLX-200 used for?

PLX-200 is being developed for juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, a rare inherited neurodegenerative disorder also known as CLN3 disease. It is a small molecule therapeutic candidate in the rare disease area. Polaryx Therapeutics is developing PLX-200 as an investigational treatment for patients with this condition.

Who is developing PLX-200?

PLX-200 is being developed by Polaryx Therapeutics, Inc., which trades under the ticker PLYX. The company is advancing the small molecule candidate for juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, a rare pediatric neurodegenerative disorder, as part of its rare disease pipeline.

What phase is PLX-200 in?

PLX-200 is listed at Phase 3 for juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. It is an investigational small molecule and is not described as approved. Its clinical program consists of a single Phase 3 trial, NCT04637282, which was withdrawn with no patients enrolled.

What clinical trials is PLX-200 in?

PLX-200 has one registered clinical trial, NCT04637282, titled Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of PLX-200 in Patients With CLN3. It was designed as a Phase 3 study in juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis for patients aged 6 years and older, but the trial was withdrawn and enrolled no participants.

How was the PLX-200 trial in CLN3 designed?

The PLX-200 trial NCT04637282 was a Phase 3 study in juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis open to patients aged 6 years and older of any sex. It was an uncontrolled study without randomization or double blinding, and it was withdrawn before any of its planned enrollment took place.
