About VILTEPSO® (viltolarsen) injection
VILTEPSO, a revolutionary drug for the treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), has been granted a number of designations in both the United States and Japan.
In the US, it was granted Priority Review, Rare Pediatric Disease, Orphan Drug and Fast Track Designations before its approval in August 2020. Similarly, in Japan, the drug was granted the SAKIGAKE designation, Orphan Drug designation, and designation of Conditional Early Approval System before it was approved for use in March 2020 for DMD patients amenable to exon 53 skipping therapy. This is a major breakthrough for DMD patients and their families.
Indication
VILTEPSO is a revolutionary treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) that has been given approval under accelerated approval. It works by helping to increase dystrophin production in skeletal muscle, giving a much-needed boost to those suffering from DMD. While its effectiveness must still be confirmed in a confirmatory trial, VILTEPSO is a beacon of hope for those with DMD, offering a chance at a better quality of life.
