Study summary

This is a long term, safety follow up study of patients in the AVXS-101-CL-101 gene replacement therapy clinical trial for SMA Type 1 delivering onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi. Patients will roll over from the parent study into this long-term study for continuous safety monitoring for up to 15 years.

Read the detailed description

This is a long term, safety follow up study of patients in the AVXS-101-CL-101 gene replacement therapy clinical trial for SMA Type 1 delivering onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi. Patients will roll over from the parent study into this long-term study for continuous safety monitoring for up to 15 years. The last visit of the parent study or early discontinuation from the parent study may serve as the visit at which the informed consent form process is conducted for the AVXS 101-LT-001 long term follow-up safety study. Patients will return annually for follow up study visits for five (5) years, and then will be contacted via phone annually for ten (10) years. Additionally, patient record transfers from their local physician and/or neurologist will be requested in conjunction with the annual study visits and phone contacts for review by the investigator.

If the patient is unable to return to the original investigative site, the sponsor will arrange with the patients' local established physician to serve as an additional investigator to conduct the required assessments.

This clinical trial information was submitted voluntarily under the applicable law and, therefore, certain submission deadlines may not apply. (That is, clinical trial information for this applicable clinical trial was submitted under section 402(j)(4)(A) of the Public Health Service Act and 42 CFR 11.60 and is not subject to the deadlines established by sections 402(j)(2) and (3) of the Public Health Service Act or 42 CFR 11.24 and 11.44.).

Study population

Patients in the AVXS-101-CL-101 gene replacement therapy clinical trial for SMA Type 1 delivering onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi will roll over from the previous study into the AVXS-101-LT-001 study for continuous safety monitoring for up to 15 years.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Patient who received onasemnogene abeparvovec-xioi in the AVXS-101-CL-101 gene replacement therapy clinical trial for SMA Type 1.
  2. Parent/legal guardian willing and able to complete the process, comply with study procedures and visit schedule.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Parent/legal guardian unable or unwilling to participate in the long term follow up safety study.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 22, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
