Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
|
- INCLUSION CRITERIA:
Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be eligible to participate in
this study:
- Age 18 years or older at the time of the screening visit.
- Able to provide informed consent and comply with study procedures.
- ALS diagnosed as probable, laboratory-supported probable or definite according to the
World Federation of Neurology El Escorial revised criteria32 as determined by a
neurologist with neuromuscular subspecialty training.
- A ratio of HERV-K:RPP greater than or equal to 13 measured by quantitative PCR at the
screening visit.
- Duration of disease less than 2 years, or if greater than 2 years, disease progression
at a rate that in the judgement of the investigator would allow for completion of the
study.
- If taking riluzole or edaravone, must be on a stable dose for at least 30 days prior
to the screening visit, or stopped taking riluzole or edaravone at least 30 days prior
to the screening visit.
- Subject has a competent caregiver who can and will be responsible for administering
study drug. If there is no caregiver, another qualified individual must be available
to do this.
- Subject has established care with a neurologist and will maintain this clinical care
throughout the study.
- Subject has had neuroimaging within the last 24 months for participants enrolling at
the NIH Clinical Center.
EXCLUSION CRITERIA:
A participant will be excluded if he or she has any of the following:
- Dependence on daytime mechanical ventilation (invasive or non-invasive, including
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) or Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BiPap)
at the time of the screening visit.
- Participation in any other investigational drug trial or using investigational drug
(within 4 weeks prior to the Day 0 visit and thereafter).
- History of severe sulfonamide allergy (i.e. anaphylaxis).
- History of positive test or positive result at screening for HIV or HTLV-1.
- Participants must not be able to become pregnant (e.g., post-menopausal for at least
one year, surgically sterile, or using adequate methods of contraception) or
breastfeed for the duration of the study. Adequate methods of contraception include:
implanted contraception, intrauterine device in place for at least 3 months, or
barrier method in conjunction with spermicide. Participants of
childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and be
non-lactating.
- Presence of any of the following clinical conditions at the time of screening:
- Drug abuse or alcoholism
- Unstable medical disease (such as unstable angina or chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease), or active infectious disease (such as Hepatitis C or
tuberculosis), or current malignancy
- Unstable psychiatric illness defined as psychosis or untreated major depression
within 90 days of the screening visit
- Dementia
- Diabetes mellitus
- Hemophilia
- Use of contraindicated medications: amiodarone, dronedarone, lovastatin, simvastatin,
rifampin, rifapentine, rifabutin, cisapride, pimozide, midazolam, triazolam,
dihydroergotamine, ergonovine, ergotamine, methylergonovine, St. John s wort,
alfuzosin, salmeterol, sildenafil for pulmonary arterial hypertension, oxcarbazepine,
phenobarbital, phenytoin or dofetilide.
- Safety Laboratory Criteria at the screening visit:
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) greater than
3.0 times the upper limit of normal
- Serum creatinine, serum phosphorous, total bilirubin, triglycerides, amylase, or
lipase greater than 2.0 times the upper limit of normal
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate <60mg/dl.
- Platelet concentration of <100,000/ (micro)l.
- PT and PTT >1.2 times the upper limit of normal for participants enrolling at the
NIH Clinical Center.
- Hemoglobin <10mg/dL.
- Positive Hepatitis B Surface Antigen and Hepatitis C Virus Antigen

Primary Outcome(s)
|
The primary objective is to assess whether an antiretroviral regimen of darunavir + ritonavir, dolutegravir, and TAF for 24 weeks will suppress blood levels of HERV-K RNA below the limit of detection (1000 copies/ml) in patients with HERV-K-posi...
[Time Frame: One Year]

Secondary Outcome(s)
|
The secondary objective of this study is to assess the safety of an antiretroviral regimen of darunavir + ritonavir, dolutegravir, and TAF in patients with ALS.
