What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests a new drug, S48168 (ARM210), to determine its safety and effectiveness in treating Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT1), a condition causing dangerous heart rhythms during exercise or excitement. The drug repairs faulty heart channels that lead to these rhythm changes. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo (a pill with no active drug) once daily for 28 days. Ideal candidates have a confirmed genetic diagnosis of CPVT1 and continue to experience irregular heartbeats despite current treatment. As a Phase 2 trial, this research measures the treatment's effectiveness in an initial, smaller group of people.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial protocol requires that any daily medicines and dietary supplements be approved by the study's principal investigator and sponsor. Some medications may need a washout period (time without taking certain medications) before joining the study.

Is there any evidence suggesting that S48168 (ARM210) is likely to be safe for humans?

Research has shown that S48168 (ARM210) is safe and well-tolerated in people. In an earlier study, patients taking 120 mg and 200 mg daily experienced no major safety problems, meaning the treatment did not cause serious side effects. Another study examined its use for ventricular tachycardia, a heart rhythm disorder, and also found it to be well-tolerated.

These studies indicate that ARM210 has undergone safety testing at different doses, with positive results. For those considering joining a trial, this suggests that the treatment is generally safe for people.¹ ² ³ ⁴ ⁵

Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for ventricular tachycardia?

Most treatments for ventricular tachycardia focus on stabilizing the heart's rhythm through medications like beta-blockers, antiarrhythmics, or procedures such as catheter ablation. But S48168 (ARM210) works differently, targeting the underlying cellular mechanisms that cause the arrhythmia. This oral medication is designed to be taken once daily, potentially simplifying the treatment regimen for patients. Researchers are excited because ARM210 offers a novel approach that might improve heart rhythm stability more effectively and with fewer side effects than current options.

What evidence suggests that S48168 (ARM210) might be an effective treatment for CPVT?

Research has shown that S48168 (also known as ARM210) might help treat Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT1), a heart condition caused by calcium leaks that lead to dangerous heart rhythms. S48168 aims to repair these leaks, potentially restoring normal heart function. Early results suggest that this treatment might enable patients to live normal lives by preventing these risky heart rhythms. While there is hope for its effectiveness, further research is needed to confirm these benefits. Participants in this trial will receive either S48168 (ARM210) or a matching placebo to further evaluate its effectiveness.¹ ² ³ ⁶ ⁷
