A Study of SmartFlow Magnetic Resonance (MR) Compatible Ventricular Cannula for Administering Eladocagene Exuparvovec to Pediatric Participants
NCT04903288 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
This study will have a trial phase, extension phase, and a long-term extension phase. The primary objectives of the trial phase are to assess the pharmacodynamics (PD) of eladocagene exuparvovec treatment by evaluation of homovanillic acid (HVA) levels and to assess the safety of the SmartFlow® magnetic resonance (MR) Compatible Ventricular Cannula for administering eladocagene exuparvovec to pediatric participants with aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency. The extension phase is designed to capture additional clinical information for eladocagene exuparvovec through study evaluations, changes in motor development, AADC-specific symptoms, and other PD measures. The long-term extension phase is designed to capture long-term safety and efficacy data from participants treated with eladocagene exuparvovec.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04903288
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04903288 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as Phase 2, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 13 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is PTC Therapeutics, which has 15 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with AADC Deficiency appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Eladocagene Exuparvovec is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04903288 reports 6 study locations spanning 5 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Other, Massachusetts, North Carolina. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
