Wednesday, December 7, 2022

BOSTON, Dec. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PepGen Inc. (Nasdaq: PEPG), a clinical-stage biotechnology company advancing the next generation of oligonucleotide therapies with the goal of transforming the treatment of severe neuromuscular and neurologic diseases, today announced new preclinical data supporting the progression of PGN-EDODM1, PepGen’s product candidate in development for the treatment of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), into clinical trials. PGN-EDODM1 leverages PepGen’s Enhanced Delivery Oligonucleotide (EDO) technology and consists of the Company’s proprietary cell-penetrating peptide conjugated to a steric blocking oligonucleotide cargo. This well-characterized therapeutic oligonucleotide is designed to bind to the CUG repeat expansion hairpin loops in the DMPK transcripts of people with DM1, and thus subsequently correct the downstream transcript mis-splicing events that lead to myotonia and cardiac dysfunction.

Key Points: 
  • “We are now pleased to provide an update on the safety profile of PGN-EDODM1, having completed IND-enabling preclinical studies in multiple models.
  • Notably, we observed that this product candidate was well-tolerated in acute GLP studies conducted in rodents and NHPs at what we believe are clinically relevant doses.
  • We believe that the totality of the data obtained from these preclinical and IND-enabling studies highlights a potentially favorable safety profile for PGN-EDODM1.
