We are very pleased to share the following developments on REGENEXBIO’s first-in-human gene therapy program for the treatment of CLN2 Batten disease.

REGENEXBIO announced that the first patient was dosed in the Phase 1/11 ocular trial of RGX-381 at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) in the UK. RGXRGX-381 is an investigational one-time AAV gene therapy for the treatment of ocular manifestations of CLN2 disease, using the NAV® AAV9 to deliver the TPP1 gene directly to the retina.

Initial data from this trial is expected to be shared in 2024.

REGENEXBIO also shared an update on the RGX-181 targeted gene therapy program for brain/central nervous system (CNS). Physicians in Brazil continue to follow the first child with CLN2 disease dosed with RGX-181 under a single-patient investigator-initiated study.

REGENEXBIO expect investigators to report initial interim data from this study, including 6-month results, at the upcoming SSIEM (Society for the Study of Inborn Errors of Metabolism) Annual Symposium in late August.

RGX-181 is an investigational one-time AAV therapeutic for the treatment of CLN2, using the NAV AAV9 vector to deliver the TPP1 gene directly to the CNS.
