Sarepta faces an “arduous and treacherous path” to try to get its Duchenne muscular dystrophy therapy Elevidys back onto the market

After the FDA request, Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Sarepta said in a statement that it will continue to ship the therapy to ambulatory people but maintain a halt it implemented June 15 for non-ambulatory patients after reporting to the FDA a case of acute liver failure in a patient who could not walk.

For Sarepta, the hits keep coming, with several downgrades in the past week after it was forced to temporarily take its top-selling drug off the market.

Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals has moved to reassure Wall Street about its deal with Sarepta Therapeutics, telling investors that it expects its troubled R&D partner to meet its financial obligations.

The FDA has placed multiple investigational gene therapy clinical trials on hold, signaling broader platform concerns.

Sarepta Therapeutics' licensing partner Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals said on Wednesday it expects to receive near-term milestone payments from the drugmaker despite recent setbacks, including the death of a trial patient reported last week.

Analysts downgraded Sarepta as FDA pause on Elevidys raises regulatory uncertainty, leading to significant stock pressure and valuation cuts.
