Wednesday, October 6, 2021

LOS ALTOS, Calif., Oct. 06, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Retrotope, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel, first-in-class therapies for degenerative diseases, today reported data from its Phase 2/3 clinical trial of RT001 in patients with infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD) and its concurrent natural history study of disease onset and progression in INAD patients. Results demonstrated statistically significant improvements in overall survival and progression free survival for patients treated with RT001 as compared to control. These survival endpoints included a combination of efficacy and safety measures. Additionally, clinical improvements were observed in patients receiving RT001 as measured by the Modified Ashworth Spasticity Scale, the study’s primary efficacy endpoint, and other measurements of efficacy as compared to patients in the natural history study. These single efficacy outcomes did not reach statistical significance likely due to the small study size.

Key Points: 
  • Results demonstrated statistically significant improvements in overall survival and progression free survival for patients treated with RT001 as compared to control.
  • The treatment study of RT001 included 19 INAD patients and the concurrent natural history study included 36 INAD patients as the control arm.
  • Patients in the treatment study received RT001 for a minimum period of one year with a 30-day treatment free follow up period.
  • Infantile Neuroaxonal Dystrophy is an ultra-rare, infantile genetic neurological disorder and part of a spectrum of diseases called PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration.
