Apitegromab is under clinical development by Scholar Rock and currently in Phase III for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). According to GlobalData, Phase III drugs for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) have a 50% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Pre-Registration. GlobalData’s report assesses how Apitegromab’s drug-specific PTSR and Likelihood of Approval (LoA) scores compare to the indication benchmarks. Buy the report here.

GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Apitegromab overview

Apitegromab (SRK-015) is under development for the treatment of type 2 and type 3 spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), Becker muscular dystrophy and other muscle wasting disorders (additional myostatin related disorders).
