Frequently asked questions about Zeleciment basivarsen

What is Zeleciment basivarsen used for?

Zeleciment basivarsen is being developed for the treatment of Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1), a rare genetic disorder also known as Steinert disease. It is an investigational RNA therapy and has not been approved by the FDA. It is currently in Phase 3 clinical development.

What does Zeleciment basivarsen target?

Zeleciment basivarsen targets DMPK, the gene that produces the dystrophia myotonica protein kinase. By targeting DMPK RNA, the therapy aims to reduce the toxic RNA species that cause the symptoms of Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1. It is an RNA-based therapeutic.

Who is developing Zeleciment basivarsen?

Zeleciment basivarsen is being developed by Dyne Therapeutics, Inc., which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker DYN. Dyne Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on rare diseases.

What phase is Zeleciment basivarsen in?

Zeleciment basivarsen is in Phase 3 clinical development for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1. A Phase 3 trial is currently recruiting, and a Phase 1 trial is active but not recruiting. The drug has received Breakthrough Therapy, Orphan Drug, and Fast Track designations from the FDA.

What clinical trials is Zeleciment basivarsen in?

Zeleciment basivarsen is being evaluated in two clinical trials. The Phase 3 trial, NCT07486934, is recruiting 150 participants with DM1 across multiple countries. The Phase 1 trial, NCT05481879, has completed enrollment with 127 participants and is active but not recruiting.

Is Zeleciment basivarsen the same as DYNE-101?

Yes, Zeleciment basivarsen is also known as DYNE-101. DYNE-101 is the investigational code name used by Dyne Therapeutics for this RNA therapy targeting DMPK for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1. Both names refer to the same drug candidate.
