REGENXBIO announced they are expanding their AFFINITY DUCHENNE Trial, which delivers a micro-dystrophin via AAV8, to include a new cohort of younger patients. The trial, which has been enrolling ambulatory boys with Duchenne aged 4 to 11, is now expected to enroll up to five individuals aged 1-3 as well. These younger participants will receive RGX-202 at the pivotal dose level (dose level 2, at 2×1014 genome copies/kg body weight). REGENXBIO expects to share initial strength and functional assessment data for individuals already treated (at both dose levels) later this year.
