Congestive Heart Failure Heart Failure, Systolic Heart Failure | Biological: SRD-001 Drug: Placebo | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
The CUPID-3 Trial is an interventional study of SRD-001, an adeno-associated virus serotype 1 (AAV1) vector expressing the transgene for sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2a isoform (SERCA2a), in anti-AAV1 neutralizing antibody (NAb) negative subjects with ischemic or non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III/IV symptoms of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
The Phase 1 trial is an open-label, uncontrolled study investigating one dose of SRD-001 at 3E13 viral genomes (vg) in 4 to 8 subjects.
The Phase 2 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with prospective assignment to a single dose of either SRD-001 at 3E13 vg or placebo in a 1:1 ratio and a total sample size of N=50.
