Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Main Study: Percent Change From Baseline to Week 48 in Daily Cornstarch Intake (Grams)
Baseline, Weeks 24, 30, 36, 42 and 48

The least square (LS) mean and standard error (SE) are based on mixed-model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis.

Japan Cohort: Percent Change From Baseline to Week 48 in Daily Cornstarch Intake (Grams)
Baseline, Weeks 24, 30, 36, 42 and 48
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) Treatment-Emergent AEs (TEAEs) Serious TEAEs, Discontinuations Due to TEAEs, and Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
AEs Prior to Dosing: From signing the informed consent form (ICF) to first dose of study drug. TEAEs: From first dose of study drug through the End of Study (EOS)/Early Withdrawal visit (up to Week 52) plus 30 days.

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence, regardless of its causal relationship to study product. An SAE is defined as any event that: results in death; is immediately life threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; results in a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or an important medical event, in the opinion of the investigator. The relationship to study drug was categorized as unrelated, possible, probable or definite. A DLT is defined as any AE/SAE ≥ Grade 3 that is considered by the Investigator and/or Sponsor to be related to DTX401, based on the Nation Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 5.0 or later version. Per protocol, SAEs that occurred \> 30 days after EOS or Early withdrawal visit, did not need to be reported unless Investigator considered them related to study product.

Frequently asked questions about DTX401

What is DTX401?

DTX401 is an investigational gene therapy being developed by Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc. for glycogen storage disease type Ia, also known as GSD1. It is designed to deliver a functional copy of the glucose-6-phosphatase gene to liver cells. DTX401 has been studied in clinical trials and is not yet approved for commercial use.

What is DTX401 used for in GSD1?

DTX401 is being developed for the treatment of glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD1), a rare inherited metabolic disorder. The goal is to address the underlying enzyme deficiency by providing a working copy of the G6PC gene. It remains investigational and has not been approved for any indication.

Who is developing DTX401?

DTX401 is being developed by Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc., a biopharmaceutical company focused on rare and ultra-rare diseases. The company trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol RARE. Ultragenyx is responsible for the clinical development program of DTX401.

What phase is DTX401 in?

DTX401 has been evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial and a Phase 3 clinical trial. The Phase 1 trial is completed, and the Phase 3 trial is also completed. DTX401 is not approved by the FDA and remains an investigational therapy.

What clinical trials is DTX401 in?

DTX401 has been studied in two clinical trials: NCT03517085, a Phase 1 safety and dose-finding study in adults with GSD1, and NCT05139316, a Phase 3 study in patients with glycogen storage disease type Ia. Both trials are completed. The Phase 3 trial enrolled 52 patients across multiple countries.
