At the latest end-of-the-month AIDNPC telephone conference hosted by the sponsor, Orphazyme ApS, the following update on the recruitment into the ‘-001’ and ‘-002’ Studies was presented. Over the last month, no more patients have enrolled in neither of the ‘-001’ and ‘-002’ Studies, leaving the total at 35 patients enrolled to date at 12 European sites. Of these, in the ‘-002’ Study, still a total of 3 patients have been enrolled to date at the following site:
Recruitment into the 002 Interventional Study

Copenhagen, Denmark

While Orphazyme reports making headway through many of the regulatory steps at each country, the main obstacles are currently getting contracts approved at individual sites and/or getting reviewed by local ethics committees. Varying calendars and deadline schedules for these also play into the timelines.

Orphazyme believes it is closest getting enrolment started at the sites in Germany, UK, and Spain.

The three patients in Denmark have recently completed their 3-month visit.
