Rocket Pharmaceuticals (RCKT)/b) announced FDA alignment on the pivotal Phase 2 trial design for RP-A501 in Danon disease, including a 12-patient efficacy population and established 12‑month co-primary endpoints.The FDA reviewed initial safety data from the first three patients treated under a modified protocol at a recalibrated RP-A501 dose of 3.8 × 10¹³ GC/kg. All three completed at least four weeks of follow-up, were discharged after observation, and showed no clinical or laboratory evidence of thrombotic microangiopathy or capillary leak syndrome. Based on these data, the FDA confirmed continued enrollment and dosing under the modified protocol and that these first three patients count toward the 12-patient pivotal population, leaving nine to enroll. The 12‑month co-primary endpoints are myocardial LAMP2 expression and a 10% reduction from baseline in left ventricular mass index, which are intended to support a potential accelerated approval pathway.
