VP-001 is under clinical development by PYC Therapeutics and currently in Phase I for Retinitis Pigmentosa (Retinitis). According to GlobalData, Phase I drugs for Retinitis Pigmentosa (Retinitis) have a 91% phase transition success rate (PTSR) indication benchmark for progressing into Phase II. GlobalData’s report assesses how VP-001’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.

VP-001 overview

VP-001 is under development for the treatment of retinitis pigmentosa type 11 (RP11). The drug candidate is being developed based on cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) delivery platform. It acts by targeting U4/U6 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (PRPF31) gene. It is administered through intravitreal route.
