Phase 3: testing NRTX-1001 for Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy

This clinical trial is designed to test whether a single image-guided intracerebral administration of inhibitory nerve cells, called interneurons (NRTX-1001), into subjects with drug-resistant unilateral mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), with or without mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS), is safe (frequency of side effects) and effective (seizure frequency). NRTX-1001 comprises human interneurons that secrete a neurotransmitter, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05135091 · Neurona Therapeutics · enrollment listed as 88

What this phase means

Phase 3: this treatment already looked useful in smaller studies. Now it is tested in a large group, often against standard care or a dummy treatment, to see if it should be approved.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are NRTX-1001, NRTX-1001, or Sham Comparator. The registry lists allocation as randomized. This clinical trial is designed to test whether a single image-guided intracerebral administration of inhibitory nerve cells, called interneurons (NRTX-1001), into subjects with drug-resistant unilateral mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE), with or without mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS), is safe (frequency of side effects) and effective (seizure frequency).

They plan to enroll about 88 people at 36 sites. Taking part typically means an infusion or injection of a biologic, a procedure as part of the study plus check-ins.

A Study of Inhibitory Interneurons (NRTX-1001) in Drug-Resistant Unilateral Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE)

Interventions: NRTX-1001, NRTX-1001, Sham Comparator

Primary outcome (registry wording): Frequency of serious or severe AEs (Phase 1/2)

Who it is for (from inclusion criteria)

  • Ages 18 Years to 75 Years
  • Male or Female, age ≥18 to ≤75
  • Focal seizures, clinically defined as unilateral MTLE
  • Has failed to achieve seizure control despite adequate trials of at least 2 ASDs at appropriate doses
  • Currently on stable doses (at least 1 month prior to Screening) of approved ASDs
  • Single seizure focus confirmed within one hippocampus
  • Seizure frequency averages ≥4 per 28-day period, including at least 2 clinical focal seizures per 28-day period with objective manifestations or more severe types, over the 6 months prior to the Screening Visit. (Phase 1/2 only)
  • Disabling seizure frequency of ≥2 per 28-day period averaged over 3 months prior to the Screening visit and over a prospective 10-week baseline period prior to Randomization (Phase 3 Only)

Surgery as a Treatment for Medically Intractable Epilepsy

Background: \- Drug resistant epilepsy is the term used to describe epilepsy that cannot be controlled by medication. Many people whose seizures do not respond to medication will respond to surgical treatment, relieving seizures completely or almost completely in one-half to two-thirds of patients who qualify for surgery.
