Wave Life Sciences Reports Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results and Provides Business Update
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, August 9, 2018 Wave Life Sciences Ltd. (NASDAQ: WVE), a biotechnology company focused on delivering transformational therapies for patients with serious, genetically-defined diseases, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018 and provided a business update.
We continue to advance our programs for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy with preparations underway for our global, pivotal trial of investigational WVE-210201 for boys amenable to exon 51 skipping. Recently presented preclinical data demonstrating that our stereopure oligonucleotides can restore up to 90% of natural dystrophin in an animal model underscore the significant potential of our platform to address Duchenne muscular dystrophy, said Paul Bolno, MD, MBA, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wave Life Sciences. Through the rest of the year, we look forward to sharing Phase 1 safety data on WVE-210201, presenting advances in our Duchenne muscular dystrophy exon 53 skipping program, and maintaining strong momentum in the ongoing PRECISON-HD clinical program, the first clinical study conducted in the United States using an oligonucleotide approach for Huntingtons disease.
Second Quarter Highlights and Business Update
| WVE-210201 DMD exon 51 targeting program |
The ongoing single ascending dose Phase 1 clinical trial of WVE-210201 in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients amenable to exon 51 skipping continues to progress through the planned dose escalation with no safety signals observed in the trial. Wave now expects to announce safety data from the Phase 1 trial by the end of the fourth quarter of 2018. Patient interest and enrollment in the trial continue to be strong. As patients complete the Phase 1 trial, they have the option to enroll in an ongoing open label extension study in which they receive continued treatment with WVE-210201.
Wave remains on track to deliver an interim efficacy readout of dystrophin expression from muscle biopsies from ongoing and planned clinical trials in the second half of 2019.
Wave has designed a global, pivotal, placebo-controlled Phase 2/3 efficacy and safety study of WVE-210201 in DMD patients amenable to exon 51 skipping, informed by ongoing discussions with global regulatory authorities and the DMD patient community. The study will be powered to assess clinical efficacy and will include dystrophin expression readouts as part of interim and final analyses.
In addition, the positive opinion by the European Medicines Agency Committee for Orphan Medical Products recommending WVE-210201 for designation as an orphan medicinal product for the treatment of DMD was adopted by the European Commission.
