PTC Therapeutics, Inc.: PTC Therapeutics Announces FDA Target Regulatory Action Date for Sepiapterin and Lancet Publication of Phase 3 Trial Results

Finanznachrichten News

WARREN, N.J., Oct. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTCT) announced today that the FDA has set a target regulatory action date of July 29, 2025, for the review of the New Drug Application (NDA) for sepiapterin, consistent with a standard review timeline. The NDA was submitted with an indication for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with phenylketonuria (PKU), including all age groups and the full spectrum of disease subtypes. In addition, PTC announced that the results of the Phase 3 APHENITY trial were recently published in The Lancet, one of the most prestigious peer-reviewed medical journals.

"The Lancet publication reflects the promising and transformative nature of the data collected to date on sepiapterin and the therapy's potential to fill the persistent and significant unmet medical need for PKU patients," said Matthew B. Klein, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of PTC Therapeutics.

The sepiapterin NDA includes the results from the Phase 3 APHENITY trial discussed in The Lancet publication, as well as data from the ongoing APHENITY open-label extension study, which provides evidence of the durability of effect of sepiapterin and the ability of patients to liberalize their diet and still maintain control of phenylalanine (Phe) levels. The most recent results from the Phe tolerance assessment demonstrate that approximately 60% of subjects achieve protein intake above the age-adjusted recommended daily allowance for an unaffected individual while still maintaining Phe levels < 360 µmol/L.

About Sepiapterin
Sepiapterin (formerly PTC923), an oral formulation of synthetic sepiapterin, has a dual mechanism of action to increase activity of the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) enzyme. First, sepiapterin is a precursor compound that is rapidly absorbed and converted intracellularly to tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), a critical cofactor of PAH. Sepiapterin also has an independent pharmacological chaperone effect, correcting PAH misfolding to enhance the enzyme function. Through this dual mechanism of action, sepiapterin effectively reduces blood phenylalanine (Phe) levels and has the potential to treat a broad range of PKU patients.

About Phenylketonuria
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a rare, inherited metabolic disease, which affects the brain. It is caused by a defect in the gene that helps create the enzyme needed to break down phenylalanine. If left untreated or poorly managed, phenylalanine - an essential amino acid found in all proteins and most foods - can build up to harmful levels in the body. This causes severe and irreversible disabilities, such as permanent intellectual disability, seizures, delayed development, memory loss, and behavioral and emotional problems. Newborns with phenylketonuria initially don't have any symptoms, but symptoms are usually progressive, and damage caused by toxic levels of phenylalanine in the first few years of life is irreversible. Diagnosis of phenylketonuria usually takes place during newborn screening programs. There are an estimated 58,000 people with phenylketonuria globally.
