Catalyst announces publication of Santhera’s VISION-DMD study results

Catalyst Pharmaceuticals announced that the peer-reviewed journal Neurology has published Santhera Pharmaceutical’s study titled “Efficacy and Safety of Vamorolone Over 48 Weeks in Boys With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy” presenting the findings from Santhera’s VISION-DMD study conducted by Santhera. Catalyst holds the exclusive rights to commercialize AGAMREE in North America. Santhera reports that the VISION-DMD study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, and prednisone-controlled clinical trial of 2 doses of vamorolone in participants with Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the ages four years to younger than seven years at baseline that was conducted at 33 sites in 11 countries from 2018 to 2021. Based on the published study, Santhera has reported that the results of the VISION-DMD study support the long-term efficacy and safety profile of vamorolone and conclude that vamorolone was generally well tolerated, consistent with the 24-week study findings, as published previously in JAMA Neurology.
