Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
Inclusion Criteria:
- Laboratory documentation of SMN mutation/deletion consistent with a genetic diagnosis
of SMA
- Clinical diagnosis of SMA type I
- Age 2 weeks to 12 months
- Written informed consent of parents/guardian
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any clinical or laboratory evidence of hepatic or pancreatic insufficiency.
- Laboratory results drawn within 14 days prior to start of study drug demonstrating:
Liver transaminases (AST, ALT), lipase, amylase: > 1.5 x ULN White Blood Cell Count: < 3
Neutropenia: <1 Platelet: <100K Hematocrit: <30, persisting over a 30-day period
- Serious illness requiring systemic treatment and/or hospitalization within two weeks
prior to study entry.
- Use of medications or supplements within 30 days of study enrollment that interfere
with VPA or carnitine metabolism; that increase the potential risks of VPA or
carnitine; or that are hypothesized to have a beneficial effect in SMA animal models
or human neuromuscular disorders, including riluzole, valproic acid, hydroxyurea, oral
use of albuterol, sodium phenylbutyrate, butyrate derivatives, creatinine, growth
hormone, anabolic steroids, probenecid, oral or parenteral use of corticosteroids at
entry, or agents anticipated to increase or decrease muscle strength or agents with
presumed histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition.
- Infants who have participated in a treatment trial for SMA within 30 days of study
entry or who will become enrollees in any other treatment trial during the course of
this study.
- Unwillingness to travel for study assessments.
- Coexisting medical conditions that contradict use of VPA/carnitine or travel to and
from study site.
