Biogen announced interim 6-month biomarker data from the initial 29 participants in the open-label RESPOND study. The Phase 4 study evaluates clinical outcomes and safety following treatment with SPINRAZA over a 2-year period in infants and toddlers with spinal muscular atrophy who have unmet clinical needs after treatment with Zolgensma. The new data show that plasma neurofilament light chain levels, an objective biomarker of axonal injury and neurodegeneration, were reduced in nearly all study participants treated with SPINRAZA. These data will be presented at the 2024 Muscular Dystrophy Association Clinical & Scientific Conference.
