Solid Bio's DMD Gene Therapy Shows Promising Early Data, No New Safety Concerns, But Fails To Cheer Investors

Solid Bio公司的DMD基因疗法显示有希望的早期数据,没有新的安全担忧,但未能鼓舞投资者

Solid Biosciences Inc (NASDAQ: SLDBreported interim functional, biomarker data, and patient-reported outcome measures from its ongoing IGNITE Phase 1/2 trial of its lead gene therapy candidate, SGT-001 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

固体生物科学公司(纳斯达克:SLDB) 已报告的临时功能、生物标志物数据,以及患者报告的结果度量从其正在进行的点火阶段1/2试验其领先的候选基因治疗药物SGT-001在杜氏肌营养不良症(DMD)中得到了广泛应用。

  • While IGNITE-DMD was designed to assess the microdystrophin protein expression and distribution, the company instead chose to highlight the functional and patient-reported outcomes at the 12-month mark.
  • Analysts and investors are less certain about the takeaway, driving the stock price lower. 
  • Data will be presented at the Muscular Dystrophy Association’s virtual clinical and scientific conference.
  • Sarepta Therapeutics Inc’s Duchenne gene therapy, which failed in a Phase 2 study readout, recently sported 1.7 point improvement in NSAA total score (all-important functional endpoint) compared to 0.9 on placebo. 
  • Solid Bio spurred even smaller improvement on the NSAA score at a mean of 1.0 point in the low dose group and 0.3 points in the high dose group.
  • The untreated control cohort exhibited a mean decline of 4.0 points.
  • On the 6-minute walk test, patients in the low-dose cohort walked 37 meters more on average, while the high-dose cohort had a mean improvement of 49.7 meters. Patients in the untreated control cohort exhibited a decline of 8.5 meters.
  • As for FVC, within a year untreated control cohort exhibited a mean decline of 10.7% on an absolute basis, while patients in the low dose and high dose cohorts exhibited a mean improvement of 3.9% and 16.7%, respectively, over the same period.
  • The biomarker data were more mixed. Though the high-dose group saw a sustained decline in creatine kinase (a marker of damage) of around 50%, the low dose cohort saw CK increase 166%, while the control group had an average CK increase of 17%.
  • Starting with the 7th patient in IGNITE-DMD, Solid is testing a second-generation construct that would cut the viral load by half and be administered within a modified regimen.
  • The Phase 1/2 DMD study was held down by clinical holds for almost three years. In March 2018, the FDA instituted a clinical hold after one patient was hospitalized due to a drop in platelet and red blood cell levels, followed by an immune reaction.
  • The agency cleared the study to resume in June 2018, only to halt it again in November 2019 after a patient developed complications similar to those that led to the first clinical hold.
  • Finally, in October last year, the FDA lifted the hold as the company agreed to lower the maximum weight of patients in the study, a change intended to boost safety.
  • Price Action: SLDB shares are trading 10.3% lower at $8.53 in premarket on the last check Tuesday.
  • 虽然IGNITE-DMD旨在评估微营养不良蛋白的表达和分布,但该公司选择在12个月时强调功能和患者报告的结果。
  • 分析师和投资者对外卖不太确定,导致股价走低。
  • 数据将在肌肉营养不良协会的虚拟临床和科学会议上公布。
  • Sarepta治疗公司的杜兴基因疗法,它第二阶段研究读数失败最近,与安慰剂组的0.9分相比,NSAA总分(所有重要的功能终点)提高了1.7分。
  • Solid Bio对NSAA评分的改善更小,低剂量组平均为1.0分,高剂量组为0.3分。
  • 未经治疗的对照组平均下降4.0分。
  • 在6分钟步行测试中,低剂量组的患者平均多步行37米,而高剂量组的患者平均改善49.7米。未经治疗的对照组患者下降了8.5米。
  • 至于用力肺活量(FVC),在一年内,未经治疗的对照组的绝对值平均下降了10.7%,而同期低剂量组和高剂量组的患者分别平均改善了3.9%和16.7%。
  • 生物标记物的数据更是喜忧参半。尽管高剂量组的肌酸激酶(一种损伤标志)持续下降了约50%,但低剂量组的CK上升了166%,而对照组的CK平均上升了17%,而高剂量组的CK持续下降了约50%,而低剂量组的CK上升了166%,而对照组的CK平均上升了17%。
  • 从IGNITE-DMD的第7名患者开始,Solid公司正在测试一种第二代结构,这种结构将把病毒载量减少一半,并在修改后的方案中使用。
  • 1/2期DMD研究被临床搁置了近三年。2018年3月,FDA在一名患者因血小板和红细胞水平下降而住院后,实施了临床搁置,随后出现了免疫反应。
  • 该机构批准了这项研究于2018年6月恢复,但在一名患者出现与导致首次临床搁置的并发症类似的并发症后,该研究于2019年11月再次停止。
  • 最后,去年10月,美国食品药品监督管理局解除了这一禁令。由于该公司同意降低研究中患者的最大体重,这一变化旨在提高安全性。
  • 价格行动:在周二的最后一次检查中,SLDB的股价在盘前交易中下跌10.3%,至8.53美元。
