Study Summary

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple intravenous (IV) doses of DYNE-101 administered to participants with Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1).

The study consists of 4 periods: A Screening Period (up to 8 weeks), a Placebo-Controlled Period (24 weeks), a Treatment Period (24 weeks) and a Long-Term Extension (LTE) Period (144 weeks) in both multiple-ascending dose (MAD) and dose expansion cohorts.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of DM1 with trinucleotide repeat size >100.

  • Age of onset of DM1 muscle symptoms ≥12 years.

  • Clinically apparent myotonia equivalent to hand opening time of at least 2 secondsin the opinion of the Investigator.

  • Hand grip strength and ankle dorsiflexion strength.

  • Able to complete 10-MWRT, stair ascend/descend, and 5×STS at screening without theuse of assistive devices such as canes, walkers, or orthoses.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History of major surgical procedure within 12 weeks prior to the start ofinvestigative product administration or an expectation of a major surgical procedure (eg, implantation of cardiac defibrillator) during the study.

  • History of anaphylaxis.

  • Medical condition other than DM1 that would significantly impact ambulation orparticipation in functional assessments.

  • Treatment with medications that can improve myotonia within a period of 5 half-livesof the medication prior to performing screening assessments.

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG) with the corrected QT interval by Fridericia's Formula (QTcF) ≥450 milliseconds (ms) in men and QTcF ≥460 ms in women, PR ≥240 ms, leftbundle-branch block, or a conduction defect, which is clinically significant in theopinion of the Investigator.

  • Percent predicted forced vital capacity (FVC) <50%.

  • History of tibialis anterior biopsy within 3 months of Day 1 or planning to undergotibialis anterior biopsies during study period for reasons unrelated to the study.

  • Participant has a history of suicide attempt, suicidal behavior, or has any suicidalideation within 6 months prior to Screening that meets criteria at a level of 4 or 5of the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) or who, in the opinion of theInvestigator, is at significant risk to commit suicide.

  • Use of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonist medications including semaglutide,dulaglutide, liraglutide, exenatide, or tirzepatide within a period of 5 half-livesof the medication prior to performing screening assessments.

  • Significant weight loss during study participation may impact weight-based dosing,performance on muscle function assessments, and pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers.

Note: Other inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply.
