What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial tests the safety and effectiveness of AX 250, a drug delivered directly to the brain through an implanted device, in improving cognitive function in patients with MPS IIIB.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications, but you cannot have received any investigational medication other than AX 250 within 30 days before starting the study.

How is the drug AX 250 unique for treating Sanfilippo Syndrome?

AX 250 is unique because there are currently no FDA-approved treatments for Sanfilippo Syndrome, making it a novel option for addressing this rare genetic disorder. ^{1 2 3 4 5}
