Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The TaRGET study is a multi-centre, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the potential therapeutic efficacy of tideglusib, a glycogen synthase kinase-3 β inhibitor, in genotype positive arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy.
Eligibility
Min Age: 18 Years
Inclusion Criteria4
- A pathogenic or likely pathogenic desmosomal (PKP2, DSG2, DSC2, DSP, or JUP\*) rare variant OR the TMEM43-p.S358L variant
- \*JUP carriers must be homozygous or compound heterozygous
- Mean ≥ 500 PVCs per 24 hours on a baseline screening 7-day Holter monitor
- Clinical ACM diagnosis or recognition of genetic carrier status for ≥ 6 months prior to screening
Exclusion Criteria14
- NYHA class IV heart failure
- Ventricular scar secondary to coronary artery disease
- Initiation, cessation, or dose change of a Class I or III anti-arrhythmic drug in the 3 months prior to screening
- Any potentially harmful chronic liver disease
- ALT value \> 2X the upper limit of the normal reference range at Screening
- Total bilirubin value greater than the upper limit of the normal reference range at Screening, unless documented Gilbert's syndrome. For individuals with Gilbert's syndrome, total bilirubin value greater than 2-fold the upper limit of the normal reference range at Screening.
- A history of alcohol or illicit substance use disorders
- Regular and long-term use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, including clarithromycin, telithromycin, ketoconazole, itraconazole, posaconazole, nefazodone, idinavir and ritonavir

- Males, engaged in sexual relations with a female of child-bearing potential, not using an acceptable contraceptive method if not surgically sterile
- Patients unwilling to provide informed consent or comply with follow-up
- Hypersensitivity to tideglusib or any components of its formulation, including allergy to strawberry
- Concurrent use of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4 with a narrow therapeutic window e.g. warfarin and digoxin
