Not Recruiting

Trial ID: NCT01890798

Purpose

This is a single arm, open-label continued access protocol of drisapersen for the treatment of male subjects with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) having dystrophin mutations correctable by drisapersen-induced DMD Exon 51 skipping. The purpose of this continued access protocol is to offer pre-approval access to drisapersen for the treatment of subjects with DMD who previously participated in eligible drisapersen studies. The protocol will collect safety data required to assure subject safety and periodic efficacy data on muscle function.

   withdrew from the treatment portion of study DMD114876 due to meeting laboratory
   safety stopping criteria may be eligible to enroll in the extension study if: the
   laboratory parameters that led to stopping have resolved; benefit of further treatment
   with drisapersen outweighs the risk to the individual subject; and following
   consultation with the GSK Medical Lead.

   - Prior DMD115501 subjects:

   - Active subjects who entered into open-label extension study DMD115501. Subjects are
   required to be withdrawn from DMD115501 to participate.

   - Prior DMD114044 Subjects: US citizens who completed study DMD114044 in another country
   and who want to return to the US to participate, upon agreement by a physician
   conducting this protocol, OR Unites States citizens who participated in DMD114044 but
   who had to withdraw from the study due to meeting laboratory safety stopping criteria
   may be eligible to enroll if: the laboratory parameters that led to stopping have
   resolved; benefit of further treatment with drisapersen outweighs the risk to the
   individual subject; and following consultation with the GSK Medical Lead and upon
   agreement of physician conducting this protocol

   - Prior DMD114349 Subjects: US citizens who participated in and completed study
   DMD114044 in another country and who entered into the ongoing open-label extension

   return to the US to participate in this protocol, upon agreement by a physician
   conducting this protocol. Subjects are required to withdraw from DMD114349 to

   - Continued use of glucocorticosteroids for a minimum of 60 days prior to protocol entry
   with a reasonable expectation that the subject will remain on steroids for the

Exclusion Criteria:

   - Subject had a serious adverse experience or who met safety stopping criteria that
   remains unresolved from protocol DMD114876, which in the opinion of the physician

   is ongoing. Once resolved, subject may be eligible to enroll following consultation
   with the GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Medical Lead.

   - Use of anticoagulants, antithrombotics or antiplatelet agents, or previous treatment
