Safety and Tolerability Study of ST-503 for Refractory Pain Due to Peripheral Neuropathy (Small Fiber Predominant, SFN) (NCT06980948)

A Multicenter Phase 1 / 2 Double-blind, Randomized, Sham-controlled Dose Escalation Study to Determine Safety and Tolerability of Single Dose Intrathecal ST-503 Gene Therapy for Refractory Pain Due to Peripheral Neuropathy (Small Fiber Predominant, SFN)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase1 / Phase2 ๐Ÿฉบ Clinical Procedure Protocol Sponsor: Sangamo Therapeutics

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This research is being done to study a possible treatment for refractory pain due to small fiber neuropathy (SFN). ST-503 is intended to deliver a modified copy of the gene which will ideally repress Nav1.7 tissue-related pain signals reaching the brain, which should reduce the refractory pain due to small fiber neuropathy (SFN).
