Brief Summary:
This is an open-label, prospective, genotype-match controlled for primary estimand, non randomized, multicenter, international Phase 2 clinical trial designed to investigate the efficacy and safety of ER004 administered intraamniotically as a treatment for unborn XLHED male subjects.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
X-Linked Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia (XLHED) Biological: ER004 Phase 2

Detailed Description:
X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XLHED) is a rare developmental disease affecting body parts derived from the embryonal ectoderm. It is caused by a broad spectrum of mutations in the ectodysplasin A gene (EDA). The main symptoms of XLHED are hypo- or anhidrosis, oligo- or anodontia, and hypotrichosis. Current treatment options are limited to the management of disease symptoms and prevention of complications. Effective corrective treatment for XLHED remains a high unmet medical need. ER004 represents a first-in-class signaling protein replacement molecule designed for specific, high affinity binding to the endogenous EDA1 receptor (EDAR). The proposed mechanism of action of ER004 is the replacement of the missing EDA1 protein in patients with XLHED. The aim of this prospective, open-label, genotype-match controlled, multicenter Phase 2 trial is to confirm the efficacy and safety results for ER004 administered intra-amniotically in a larger cohort of subjects. The target population will consist of male XLHED fetuses/subjects with EDA mutation confirmed by genetic diagnosis of a mutation in one of the maternal EDA alleles and ultrasonographic diagnosis of a significantly reduced number of fetal tooth germs, or by documented direct genetic diagnosis of a hemizygous EDA mutation. In the main study phase, efficacy and safety of the treated subjects will be assessed up to 6 months of age and safety of the mothers will be assessed up to 1 month after delivery of the child. In long-term follow-up phase, efficacy and safety of the treated subjects will be assessed up to 5 years of age. Treated subjects sweating ability will be compared to an untreated relative from his family, when available, or from a matched controlled subject from a previous natural history.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean sweat volume [ Time Frame: at 6 months of age (corrected age for subjects born at < 37 weeks) ]
    For treated subject, mean sweat volume is collected on both forearms after local stimulation with pilocarpine (pilocarpine-induced sweating)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean sweat pore density (number/cm2) [ Time Frame: at 6 months of age (key secondary) and other timepoints : 3, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months of age (secondary) ]
    Mean sweat pore density (number/cm2) determined by direct visualization with a VivaScope® at 2 different sites on the sole/soles of the foot/feet (up to 12 months) or at 2 different sites on the sole/soles of the foot/feet and/or palm/palms of the hand/hands (>12 months)

  2. Dental development [ Time Frame: at 6 months of age (key secondary) and other timepoints : 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months of age (secondary) ]
    Dental development evaluated by the number of erupted teeth and tooth germs (palpable alveolar structures in the alveolar ridge) as determined by dental examination

  3. Mean sweat volume [ Time Frame: At 3, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 60 months of age ]
    For treated subject, mean sweat volume is collected on both forearms after local stimulation with pilocarpine (pilocarpine-induced sweating)

  4. Number of Meibomian glands [ Time Frame: At 6 and 60 months of age ]
    Number of Meibomian glands in the lower eyelids determined by Meibography

  5. Ocular surface assessment [ Time Frame: At 24, 48 and 60 months of age ]
    Ocular surface assessment (normal, keratitis superficialis punctate) by eye using fluorescein

  6. Tear film break-up time [ Time Frame: At 24, 48 and 60 months of age ]
    Tear film break-up time (seconds) determined using fluorescein

  7. Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) score [ Time Frame: At 60 months of age ]
    Score assessed on a scale of 0 to 100 through the OSDI questionnaire. Higher scores mean a worse outcome

  8. Salivation [ Time Frame: At 60 months of age ]
    Saliva (volume and flow rate) assessed with Quantisal oral fluid collection device

  9. XLHED-related hospitalizations [ Time Frame: Up to 60 months of age ]
    XLHED-related hospitalisation because of hyperthermia or because of unexplained fever, respiratory, skin, eye or ear infections

  10. Assessment of eczema [ Time Frame: At different timepoints from 6 to 60 months of age ]
    Eczema will be assessed using the EASI score

  11. Incidence of TEAEs (treatment-emergent adverse events) [ Time Frame: Up to 60 months of age ]
    Number of subjets with TEAEs

  12. Incidence of TESAEs (treatment-emergent serious adverse events) [ Time Frame: Up to 60 months of age ]
    Number of subjects with TESAEs

  13. Incidence of TEAEs (treatment-emergent adverse events) leading to treatment discontinuation [ Time Frame: Up to 60 months of age ]
    Number of subjects with TEAEs leading to treatment discontinuation
