This drug is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Below is a timeline of key regulatory milestones for this therapy.
- Drug:
- ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl)
- Announced Date:
- June 15, 2025
- Indication:
- Designed to address the underlying cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy through the targeted production of ELEVIDYS micro-dystrophin in skeletal muscle.
Announcement
Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. today provided a safety update regarding ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl), the only approved gene therapy for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and steps the Company is taking to strengthen the safety profile in non-ambulatory patients.
AI Summary
Sarepta Therapeutics today provided a safety update on ELEVIDYS, the only approved gene therapy for treating Duchenne muscular dystrophy, focusing on improving safety for non-ambulatory patients. In response to a second fatal case of acute liver failure in this group, the company is developing an enhanced immunosuppressive regimen that includes sirolimus. This enhanced protocol is being designed in consultation with a panel of clinical experts and regulators to better manage liver enzyme elevations and reduce risks.
As a result, shipments of ELEVIDYS for non-ambulatory patients have been temporarily suspended until the new regimen is approved. Additionally, the ENVISION clinical study has been paused to allow for a protocol amendment incorporating extra immunosuppression. Sarepta emphasizes that for ambulatory patients, current treatments remain unchanged while safety improvements for non-ambulatory patients are pursued under FDA guidance.

Announcement
Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. shared the following update related to ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl), the only approved gene therapy for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
AI Summary
Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. recently provided an important update on ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl), the only approved gene therapy for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The update noted that the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the United Kingdom advised that dosing in the ongoing global ENVISION study can proceed without interruption. ENVISION is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating ELEVIDYS in both non-ambulatory and older ambulatory individuals with DMD.
ELEVIDYS is a single-dose, AAV-based gene transfer therapy that targets the underlying genetic defect in DMD by delivering a transgene to produce micro-dystrophin in skeletal muscle. In the United States, it is approved for DMD patients aged 4 years and older, with specific indications for both ambulatory and non-ambulatory patients, marking a significant advancement in precision genetic medicine for rare diseases.

- Announced Date:
- May 16, 2025
- Indication:
- Designed to address the underlying cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy through the targeted production of ELEVIDYS micro-dystrophin in skeletal muscle.
Announcement
Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc today presented new data from Part 2 of the EMBARK study that continue to support the clinical benefits of ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl), the only approved gene therapy for patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
AI Summary
Sarepta Therapeutics recently presented encouraging data from Part 2 of the EMBARK study, which supports the clinical benefits of ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl) for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In one cohort of young patients treated at age 2, the therapy achieved an average protein expression of 93.87% as measured by western blot, along with 79.9% dystrophin positive fibers. These results were confirmed from biopsies taken 12 weeks after treatment.
The safety profile was consistent with previous ELEVIDYS studies and real-world experiences. Reported side effects included nausea and vomiting, while elevated liver enzymes in a couple of patients were successfully managed with steroid treatment. Such encouraging biomarker outcomes in younger patients may support Sarepta’s plans to seek FDA discussions on expanding ELEVIDYS’ labeled use to include even younger children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

- Announced Date:
- June 20, 2024
- Indication:
- Designed to address the underlying cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy through the targeted production of ELEVIDYS micro-dystrophin in skeletal muscle.
Announcement
Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of an expansion to the labeled indication for ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl) to include individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) with a confirmed mutation in the DMD gene who are at least 4 years of age.
AI Summary
Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. announced that the FDA has expanded the indicated use of ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec-rokl) for individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) who are at least 4 years old and have a confirmed DMD gene mutation. This approval now includes both ambulatory and non-ambulatory patients. The FDA granted traditional approval for ambulatory patients based on demonstrated functional benefits, while non-ambulatory patients received accelerated approval. For these non-ambulatory patients, continued approval may depend on future clinical trials that verify the drug’s clinical benefits. This expansion is an important milestone for those living with DMD, offering a new gene therapy option to treat the underlying cause of the disease and potentially help more patients maintain muscle function and improve their quality of life.
