Abstract Details

Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of Soticlestat (TAK-935/OV935) as an Adjunctive Therapy in Patients with 15q Duplication Syndrome (Dup15q) or Cyclin-Dependent Kinase-Like 5 Deficiency Disorder (CDD) in a Signal-Finding Phase 2 Study (ARCADE)

To characterize efficacy and safety of soticlestat (TAK-935/OV935) in patients with Dup15q or CDD in ARCADE (NCT03694275).

Dup15q and CDD are rare, treatment-resistant epilepsies. Soticlestat is a highly selective first-in-class inhibitor of cholesterol 24-hydroxylase with efficacy supported by preclinical and clinical studies.

Phase 2, open label signal-finding study. Inclusion criteria: age 2–55 years; 1–6 antiseizure medications; ≥3 motor seizures during 4-week baseline period. Treatment periods: 20-week total (8-week dose-optimization, 12-week maintenance). Maximum dose: soticlestat 600mg/day (weight-based dosing for patients <60Kg). Primary endpoint: median percent change from baseline in motor seizure frequency during maintenance period. Safety outcome: incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs).

Twenty patients (dup15q, n=8; CDD, n=12) were enrolled in ARCADE (mean age, 10.7 years; 60% female). Primary outcome results showed median percent seizure frequency of +11.7% (Dup15q cohort) and -23.6% (CDD cohort) from baseline in motor seizure frequency during the maintenance period. The median change from baseline over the 20 weeks of treatment was +13.4% (Dup15q cohort) and –13.6% (CDD cohort). There were two early terminations during ARCADE. Nineteen ARCADE patients (95%) experienced TEAEs (mild, n=15 [75%]; moderate, n=10 (50%]; severe, n=3 [15%]). Serious TEAEs were reported by 3 patients (15%); none considered to be drug-related. The caregiver global impression of change scale demonstrated improvement in 11/12 (91.6%) CDD patients and 3/6 (50%) Dup15q patients. The clinician global impression of change scale demonstrated improvement in 8/12 (66.6%) CDD patients and 2/6 (33.3%) Dup15q patients. Long-term data are presented separately.

Results from the open-label ARCADE show a signal for seizure reduction in CDD but not in Dup15q patients, with positive trend in global impression scales for both syndromes. Overall, soticlestat was well tolerated in this study.
