“Even as the pandemic created challenges throughout the third quarter, I am pleased to report that the Sarepta team was able to continue to serve the Duchenne muscular dystrophy community with little interruption, achieving net product revenue of $121.4 million for EXONDYS 51 (eteplirsen) and VYONDYS 53 (golodirsen), representing a 23% increase over the same quarter last year,” said Doug Ingram, Sarepta’s president and CEO. “At the same time, we advanced our RNA pipeline with a filing of and the FDA’s acceptance of the NDA for our next PMO candidate, casimersen, and prepared our next-generation candidate, the peptide-conjugated PMO, SRP-5051 for a data readout by the end of 2020. We also announced, at the World Muscle Society congress, positive data for SRP-9001 and SRP-9003, two critical drivers of our first-in-class gene therapy engine, and in support of these programs continued to build our strength in manufacturing. As we reported in a separate release today, the FDA has agreed on an approach for a potency assay which should permit us to dose patients with commercial process material in Study SRP-9001-103, an important milestone in our goal of bringing a potentially profound therapy to a waiting Duchenne community.”
