- Design Therapeutics reported four-week interim results from its Phase 1/2 RESTORE-FA trial of DT-216P2 in Friedreich ataxia, with the dataset based on 16 patients who completed weekly intravenous dosing across four dose levels.
- The trial showed dose-related clinical improvement across multiple measures, with patient-reported fatigue also improving and the effect persisting beyond the dosing period.
- Biomarkers indicated increased endogenous frataxin activity in blood and muscle, supporting the drug’s proposed disease-targeting mechanism.
- DT-216P2 was generally well-tolerated, with no serious adverse events or treatment discontinuations; the main drug-related finding was transient liver enzyme elevations in some patients.
- The results support a move toward registrational development, with an update on the planned path targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026.
