Voyager Therapeutics Shares Results from Phase 1b Trial

Voyager Therapeutics (NASDAQ:VYGR) announced positive results from their ongoing Phase 1b trial of VY-AADC01 in advanced Parkinson’s disease.
As quoted in the press release:

The results demonstrated durable, dose-dependent and time-dependent improvements across multiple measures of patients’ motor function after a one-time administration of the gene therapy.  These measures include patient-reported diaries, Parkinson’s disease rating scales, and activities of daily living.

“We are very pleased with the updated results from our dose-escalation trial. By six months in Cohort 3, patients achieved the clinically meaningful improvements in motor symptoms that were observed in Cohort 2 and with even lower doses of their oral Parkinson’s medications, including levodopa,” said Bernard Ravina, M.D., M.S., chief medical officer of Voyager Therapeutics.
