Study Summary

This trial will test the safety and effectiveness of a new drug in high-risk adults with a specific condition.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with a specific heart condition called PKP2-ACM, who have had an ICD implanted for at least 6 months can join. They must have a certain genetic variant and low levels of antibodies against the treatment virus. People with severe heart issues, other genetic causes of cardiomyopathy, or those in advanced stages of heart failure cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing RP-A601, given as a one-time intravenous infusion to see if it's safe and might help patients with PKP2-ACM. It starts with small doses that increase gradually to find the right balance between effectiveness and safety.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is an early-phase trial for RP-A601, potential side effects are being studied; however, common risks may include reactions at the infusion site, flu-like symptoms, immune responses or worsening of underlying conditions.
