WALTHAM, Mass., Aug. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Dyne Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: DYN), a clinical-stage muscle disease company focused on advancing innovative life-transforming therapeutics for people living with genetically driven diseases, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2024 and recent business highlights.

“The second quarter of 2024 was an exciting one for our clinical programs and pipeline. We reported new clinical data from our ACHIEVE and DELIVER trials, demonstrating meaningful impact on key biomarkers and functional improvements that reflect best-in-class potential. We are evaluating the clinical profile of different dose and dose regimens with the goal of transforming treatment for individuals living with DM1 and DMD. Based on our compelling clinical data and productive regulatory interactions, we continue to pursue expedited approval pathways and plan to provide an update on the path to registration for both programs by year-end,” said John Cox, Dyne’s president and chief executive officer. “Additionally, we highlighted the modularity of our FORCE™ platform with the presentation of robust preclinical data supporting our FSHD program, and for the first time, showed the ability of our platform to deliver enzyme replacement therapy to muscle and CNS in a Pompe disease model. We also strengthened our balance sheet to support the promise of our portfolio.”

Recent Highlights and Anticipated Milestones

Phase 1/2 ACHIEVE Trial of DYNE-101 in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1)

• In addition to the clinical update in May 2024, the Company also noted that based on recent dialogue with the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) division of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Dyne continues to pursue an accelerated approval pathway for DYNE-101 in DM1, including leveraging splicing as a potential surrogate biomarker.

Phase 1/2 DELIVER Trial of DYNE-251 in DMD

Path to Registration for ACHIEVE & DELIVER Trials

• Dyne plans to continue to engage with global regulators this year on ACHIEVE and DELIVER and anticipates providing an update on the path to registration for both DYNE-101 and DYNE-251 by the end of 2024. Both trials are designed to be registrational, and the company is pursuing expedited approval pathways for both programs.

FORCE™ Platform and Pipeline

• In June 2024, Dyne highlighted new data for DYNE-302, its product candidate for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), that demonstrated robust and durable DUX4 suppression and functional benefit in preclinical models during the 31^st Annual FSHD Society International Research Congress.

• In June 2024, Dyne presented new preclinical data in a Pompe disease model demonstrating the potential of the FORCE platform to deliver enzyme replacement therapy to cardiac and skeletal muscle and the central nervous system (CNS) at the New Directions in Biology and Disease of Skeletal Muscle Conference.

• In April 2024, Dyne submitted four abstracts featuring data from the ACHIEVE trial in DM1, DELIVER trial in DMD, and its FSHD and Pompe programs to the 2024 World Muscle Society Annual Congress. These have been accepted for presentation at the meeting, which will take place October 8-12, 2024, in Prague, Czech Republic.
