Frequently asked questions about Zeleciment rostudirsen

What is Zeleciment Rostudirsen used for in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy?

Zeleciment Rostudirsen is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). It is currently in Phase 3 clinical development and is being studied in ambulatory male participants with DMD, a rare genetic neuromuscular disease. The drug is administered intravenously every 4 weeks.

What does Zeleciment Rostudirsen target?

Zeleciment Rostudirsen targets TfR1, also known as the transferrin receptor 1. This molecular target is involved in cellular iron uptake and is highly expressed on muscle cells, which may allow for targeted delivery of the therapy to affected tissues in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Who makes Zeleciment Rostudirsen?

Zeleciment Rostudirsen is being developed by Dyne Therapeutics, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol DYN. The company is conducting a Phase 3 clinical trial of the drug in patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

What phase is Zeleciment Rostudirsen in?

Zeleciment Rostudirsen is currently in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The ongoing Phase 3 trial is recruiting participants to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the drug in ambulatory patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

What clinical trials is Zeleciment Rostudirsen in?

Zeleciment Rostudirsen is being studied in the FORZETTO trial, registered as NCT07608432. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study with an enrollment target of 90 participants. The trial is recruiting male patients aged 4 years and older with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy in the United States.

Is Zeleciment Rostudirsen the same as DYNE-251?

Yes, Zeleciment Rostudirsen is also known as DYNE-251. Both names refer to the same investigational drug being developed by Dyne Therapeutics for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The clinical trial NCT07608432 uses the name DYNE-251 in its title, while Zeleciment Rostudirsen is the assigned nonproprietary name.
