Interventional(has expanded access)
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - UX007
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo

Experimental: UX007 - Participants randomized to receive UX007 enter a 2-week dose titration period to achieve study drug treatment comprising up to 35% of total daily calories or to the maximum tolerated dose level and maintained at the 35% total daily calorie dose level for a 6-week treatment period.

Following completion of the Week 8 study visit, participants continue treatment with open-label UX007 at the 35% dose level for an additional 44 weeks (Weeks 8-52).

Placebo comparator: Placebo - Participants randomized to receive placebo enter a 2-week dose titration period to achieve study drug treatment comprising up to 35% of total daily calories or to the maximum tolerated dose level and maintained at the 35% total daily calorie dose level for a 6-week treatment period.

Following completion of the Week 8 study visit, placebo participants continue treatment with open-label UX007 at the 35% dose level for an additional 44 weeks (Weeks 8-52).

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Diagnosis of Glut1 DS confirmed by SLC2A1 mutation
2. Males and females at least 1 of age at the time of informed consent
3. Average of at least 2 observable seizures (generalized or partial-onset [simple partial motor, complex partial, absence, or secondarily generalized seizures) in 4 weeks over the last 24 weeks, by subject or caregiver report
4. At least 2 observable seizures (generalized or partial-onset [simple partial motor, complex partial, or secondarily generalized seizures) in 4 weeks during the Baseline Period, with no 3-week seizure-free period during the Baseline Period OR absence seizures documented on Screening electroencephalogram (EEG)
5. Continuing to have seizures despite a prior or current use of at least 1 antiepileptic drug (AED)
6. Allowed to be on up to 3 concomitant AEDs that must have been stable in dose at least 2 weeks prior to the beginning of screening and anticipated to remain stable in dose through the end of the 8-week, placebo-controlled Treatment Period
7. Not on, or not fully compliant with a prescribed diet plan (e.g. KD)
8. Plasma level of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) = 1 mmol/L (non-fasting) at Screening
9. Provide written or verbal assent (if possible) and written informed consent by a legally authorized representative after the nature of the study has been explained, and prior to any research-related procedures
10. Must, in the opinion of the investigator, be willing and able to complete all aspects of the study, comply with accurate completion of the seizures diary, and likely to complete the 8 week, placebo-controlled, Treatment Period
11. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at Screening, be willing to use an acceptable method of contraception, and have additional pregnancy tests during the study. Females considered not of childbearing potential include those who have not reached menarche, had total hysterectomy, have been in menopause for at least two years, or have had tubal ligation at least one year prior to Screening.
Minimum age

Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
1. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels exceeding 3 times the upper limit of normal at Screening
2. Any known hypersensitivity to triheptanoin or safflower oil that, in the judgment of the investigator, places the subject at increased risk for adverse effects
3. Prior use of triheptanoin within 30 days prior to Screening
4. History of, or current suicidal ideation, behavior and/or attempts
5. Pregnant and/or breastfeeding an infant at Screening
6. Participants unwilling or unable to discontinue use of a prohibited medication or other substance that may confound study objectives
7. Use of any investigational product (drug or supplement, including medium chain triglyceride [MCT] oil) within 30 days prior to Screening, or at any time during the study
8. Has a condition of such severity and acuity, in the opinion of the investigator, that it warrants immediate surgical intervention or other treatment
9. Has a concurrent disease or condition, or laboratory abnormality that, in the view of the investigator, places the subject at high risk of poor treatment compliance or of not completing the study, or would interfere with study participation or introduces additional safety concerns (e.g., diabetes mellitus, other concurrent neurological or psychiatric disorders)
