- Limitations and caveats
While encouraging, the results of this study also demonstrate important limitations of this therapeutic approach. First, the infusion of 1.25 ml of vector material into the parenchyma of the thalamus likely is at or near the maximum feasible dose. With less than complete clinical efficacy and limited ability to increase the dose further, the clinical utility of this approach is far from optimal.

Registered outcomes5
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Incidence, Severity, Seriousness and Relatedness to Treatment of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events | At least through 24 weeks post-treatment (infantile-onset participants) to 48 weeks post-treatment (juvenile-onset participants). All AEs are reported through the transition of the study to long-term follow-up. | The measure of total numbers of total treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious adverse events (SAEs) after treatment with the vector whether related or unrelated to treatment as well as the number of adverse events (AEs) related to AXO-AAV-GM2 vector and neurosurgical procedures. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormal Vital Signs Per Investigator Assessment | 24 weeks (infantile-onset participants) to 48 weeks (juvenile-onset participants) | Any abnormal vital signs that the investigator determined was clinically significant was recorded as an adverse event. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormal Physical Exam Per Investigator Assessment | 24 weeks (infantile-onset participants) to 48 weeks (juvenile-onset participants) | Physical exam findings that the investigator determined to be clinically significant and related to the treatment with AXO-AAV-GM2, surgical procedure or immune suppression. |
| Secondary | Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Abnormal Clinical Safety Laboratory Tests on Blood/Urine/CSF | 24 weeks (infantile-onset participants) to 48 weeks (juvenile-onset participants) | Abnormal laboratory findings in subjects treated with AXO-AAV-GM2 that were felt to be clinically significant and reported as adverse events. |
| Secondary | Serum Cellular and Antibody Immune Response to Vector Capsid/Transgene | 24 weeks (infantile-onset participants) to 48 weeks (juvenile-onset participants) | Subjects with clinically significant serum cellular and antibody immune response to vector capsid/transgene that were reported as adverse events and treated with an increase in steroids. |
