Study Description

Brief Summary:

The investigational product PF 06252616, a humanized anti myostatin monoclonal antibody that neutralizes myostatin (GDF8) is in development for the treatment of Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy 2I (LGMD2I) to preserve and/or improve muscle function.

This study will provide the clinical assessment of the safety, tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of PF 06252616 following repeat IV doses in ambulatory adults with LGMD2I.

Condition or disease	Intervention/treatment	Phase
LGMD2I	Drug: PF 06252616	Phase 1; Phase 2

Detailed Description:

This study is a Phase 1b/2, open-label multiple ascending dose escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, PK and PD of PF 06252616 in ambulatory adults with LGMD2I. The study design is intended to determine the optimal safe and pharmacologically active dose of PF 06252616 in LGMD2I while providing an opportunity for all subjects to receive active drug for a rare and disabling disorder. The study will be conducted in three periods: Lead-In, Treatment and Follow-up periods. The Lead-In and Follow-up periods will each be 16 weeks to allow an assessment of the change of various outcome measures of this period of time and comparison of change in function before, during and after treatment. The Treatment period will be 32 weeks. Three cohorts of participants will be enrolled and receive escalating doses of PF 06252616. The first cohort will have the option to crossover to the highest dose.

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Low Dose, Cohort 1; 4 subjects will be enrolled in cohort 1 and will receive an initial dose of 5mg/kg PF 06252616 IV every 4 weeks. Following 32 weeks of treatment and a safety review, if no stopping rules have been met, subjects will be receive an additional 32 weeks of treatment with 40 mg/kg PF 06252616 IV every 4 weeks.	Drug: PF 06252616
Active Comparator: Middle dose, Cohort 2; 8 subjects will be enrolled in cohort 2 and receive 20 mg/kg of PF 06252616 IV every 4 weeks for 32 weeks.	Drug: PF 06252616
Active Comparator: High dose, Cohort 3; 8 subjects will be enrolled in cohort 3 and receive 40 mg/kg of PF06252616 IV every 4 weeks for 32 weeks.	Drug: PF 06252616
