A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Intracerebral Injection of LY-N001 Injection for the Treatment of Moderate to Advanced Parkinson's Disease With GBA1 Mutations

Prior treatment

• Previous history of pallidotomy, Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery, striatal surgery, extrapyramidal surgery, stereotactic brain surgery or other brain surgeries; or any other surgical history judged by the investigators to interfere with the subject's participation in this study.
• Participants with previous head Computed Tomography (CT) / Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showing neurological diseases such as brain trauma, vascular malformations, hydrocephalus, brain tumors; subjects with hyperintense white matter signals on MRI indicating risk of intracranial hemorrhage; subjects with cerebrovascular lesions or microbleeds on SWI (Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging); subjects with vulnerable plaques or intraplaque hemorrhage of craniocervical arteries on HR-MRI (High-Resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging); or subjects with imaging abnormalities in the striatum or other brain regions that substantially increase surgical risks.
• Patients taking anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs whose coagulation function has not returned to normal 10 days after drug discontinuation.
• Patients who have previously received gene therapy or cell therapy.
• Use of systemic glucocorticoids or immunosuppressive drugs within 12 weeks prior to administration, except for prophylactic immunosuppressive agents required by the protocol (excluding prophylactic immunosuppressive therapy specified in the protocol).
• Positive Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or Hepatitis B Virus Deoxyribonucleic Acid (HBV-DNA); positive Hepatitis C Virus antibody (HCV-Ab) or Hepatitis C Virus Ribonucleic Acid (HCV-RNA).For participants with a prior history of hepatitis B or hepatitis C, two samples collected at an interval of at least 3 months must test negative for all above indicators to be considered negative. Participants with spontaneously cleared or antivirally treated cleared hepatitis B or C are eligible for this study.Participants with positive Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) test or positive syphilis serology.
• Participants with surgical contraindications, those who have received other surgical procedures deemed to interfere with this study by the investigators within six months, or those with other contraindications to neurosurgery.
• Participants with an average weekly alcohol intake exceeding 21 units for males or 14 units for females within 30 days prior to screening; 1 alcohol unit equals one 5 oz (150 mL) glass of red wine, 12 oz (360 mL) beer, or 1.5 oz (45 mL) distilled spirits; or participants with a history of drug dependence.
• Participants who are currently enrolled in another clinical trial, or those who participated in another clinical trial and received investigational products within one month.

Other illness

• Atypical or secondary parkinsonism (including Parkinson-plus syndromes, hereditary parkinsonism, drug-induced parkinsonism, etc.).
• Any severe psychiatric illnesses including epilepsy, severe anxiety, schizophrenia that are deemed unsuitable for participation in this study by the investigators, excluding mild hallucinations and similar symptoms induced by anti-Parkinsonian medications.
• Participants with contrast medium allergy who cannot undergo MRI, or those unable to tolerate surgical anesthesia.
• Participants with hypersensitivity to LY-N001 Injection.
• History of cancer within 5 years prior to screening, excluding completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer, non-metastatic prostate cancer, fully cured carcinoma in situ, and papillary thyroid carcinoma cured after radical surgical resection.

Lab values

• Participants with unstable cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, defined as clinical cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events occurring within 3 months prior to screening (e.g., unstable angina, myocardial infarction, stroke, etc.); uncontrolled diabetes mellitus with glycated hemoglobin \>8.0%; or other unstable acute or chronic diseases including infectious diseases, severe uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure ≥160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mmHg), or severe orthostatic hypotension (a drop in systolic blood pressure ≥20 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥10 mmHg within 3 minutes after the participant changes from supine/squatting position to standing position).

Other

• Patients with clinically confirmed LRRK2 mutation.
• The participant has a Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of less than 20.
• A Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) score of ≥16 indicates severe depression.
• Pregnant women, women planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding women.
• Participants who are deemed ineligible for enrollment upon investigator's assessment.

• Aged 30 to 70 years inclusive; both males and females are eligible.
• The participant fully understands the purpose, nature, procedures of the study and potential adverse events, voluntarily agrees to take part in the study and signs the informed consent form (ICF).
• Participants with clinically diagnosed idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) meeting the 2015 Movement Disorder Society (MDS) diagnostic criteria for idiopathic PD.
• Participants carrying at least one pathogenic GBA1 variant.
• Duration of PD disease ≥ 3 years.
• Off-state Hoehn-Yahr stage ranges from 2.5 to 4.
• Neutralizing antibody titer against AAV ≤ 1:200.
• The off-state MDS-UPDRS Part III (see Appendix 6 for MDS-UPDRS Part III motor examination) score is greater than 25, with either a ≥30% improvement rate on the acute levodopa challenge test, or an average daily off time of ≥2.5 hours over 3 consecutive days.
• Investigators determined that patients must receive a stable dose of dopaminergic medications, including levodopa, for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to surgery.
• Acceptable laboratory test values shall be obtained during the screening period and prior to administration (Day -3)：a).Hemoglobin ≥ 100 g/L; b).Platelets ≥ 100 × 10⁹/L; c). Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2 × upper limit of normal (ULN); d).Total bilirubin ≤ 2 × upper limit of normal (ULN); e).Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min.
• Demonstrates good treatment adherence and ability to attend scheduled follow-up visits; the participant shall be capable of accurately completing the Parkinson's disease (PD) diary during follow-up, or the participant's family member, legal guardian or caregiver may assist with diary completion.
• The participant agrees to postpone any other planned elective neurosurgical procedures (excluding emergent life-threatening neurosurgical operations occurring during the study), including Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), until completion of the 52-week follow-up period, unless DBS treatment is recommended by a specialist in the participant's best interest.
