Tuesday, May 31, 2022

BOSTON, May 31, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Stealth BioTherapeutics Corp (Nasdaq: MITO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel therapies for diseases involving mitochondrial dysfunction, today announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has granted orphan drug designation (ODD) for elamipretide for the treatment of myopathic mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (M-MDS), a designation which applies to patients with nPMM eligible for enrollment in the NuPOWER Phase 3 clinical trial, which is currently enrolling patients at multiple clinical trial sites in the United States and Europe.

Key Points: 
  • "Orphan drug designation for M-MDS marks an important step toward advancing our regulatory initiatives in Europe.
  • M-MDS is caused by mutations in nuclear DNA genes encoding for enzymes responsible for maintenance and replication of mitochondrial DNA.
  • Mitochondrial DNA replication, which is critical to support muscular energy demands, can be impaired as a result of these mutations, leading to signs and symptoms of M-MDS.
  • These patients are also considered to have primary mitochondrial myopathy, or PMM, for which the Company has previously received orphan drug designation from the US FDA.

BOSTON, May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Stealth BioTherapeutics (Nasdaq: MITO), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapies for diseases involving mitochondrial dysfunction, today announced top-line data from its Phase 2 ReCLAIM-2 trial evaluating elamipretide in patients with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration.  Although the trial did not meet its primary endpoints assessing mean changes in LLVA and GA, a key secondary endpoint showed however that elamipretide categorically improved visual function for patients with GA.  Additionally, elamipretide demonstrated proof of mechanism by reducing progressive ellipsoid zone loss, a key biomarker of retinal mitochondrial health which has been shown to be predictive of long-term GA growth and development.  Based on these data, the Company currently plans to progress development initiatives intended to better position this indication for potential partnering consistent with previous guidance.
