In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This trial employs a multicenter, randomized, open-label, standard-of-care-controlled design and plans to enroll 50 patients with Type 2 SMA aged 2 to 12 years who have previously received nusinersen. The primary objective of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy of GC101 in treating Type 2 SMA. The secondary objectives are to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of GC101 in treating Type 2 SMA.
