  • The company anticipates releasing multiple-dose data in the second half of 2026 for its FA program (DT-216P2), which aims to increase endogenous Frataxin levels.
  • For its DM1 program, Design Therapeutics expects to initiate multiple dose studies in patients in the first half of 2026, with data projected for 2027.
  • A Phase 2 biomarker study for the Fuchs corneal dystrophy program is expected to yield data in the second half of 2026.
  • Design Therapeutics reported a strong cash position of over $200 million at the end of the last quarter, providing a financial runway into 2029.

Guidance Update
  • Design Therapeutics (DSGN) is in clinical development for three major monogenic diseases: Friedreich ataxia (FA), Fuchs corneal dystrophy, and myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), with a preclinical program in Huntington's.
  • For its FA program, the company expects to have data from a multiple-dose trial in patients with DT-216P2 in the second half of 2026, following an improved formulation that demonstrated an over 10x increase in exposure and resolved prior safety issues.
  • The Fuchs corneal dystrophy program anticipates Phase 2 biomarker study data in the second half of 2026, and the DM1 program is slated to begin multiple dose studies in patients in the first half of 2026, with data expected in 2027.
  • Design Therapeutics maintains a strong financial position, ending the last quarter with over $200 million in cash, providing a runway into 2029.

Guidance Update
  • Design Therapeutics announced that its DT-818 program for Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1 (DM1) will enter clinical studies in the first half of 2026, with initial splicing correction data expected in 2027. Preclinical data showed over 90% reduction of mutant RNA foci in a relevant model system.
  • The company reported that the clinical hold has been lifted for its DT-216P2 program for Friedreich's Ataxia (FA), and the RESTOR-FA multiple ascending dose study is ongoing, with data expected in the back half of 2026. This study aims to understand the effect of DT-216P2 on increasing endogenous frataxin expression.
  • Phase 2 data for DT-168, an eye drop for Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy, is anticipated in the back half of 2026 from a biomarker study designed to confirm the mechanism of action in corneal tissue.
  • Design Therapeutics reported a strong financial position, closing the last quarter with over $200 million in cash, providing a runway into 2029.
