FDA Grants Rare Pediatric Disease Designation to Nippon Shinyaku’s Exon 51 Skipping Study (NS-051/NCNP-04) Nippon Shinyaku declared that NS-051/NCNP-04, a medication being developed to treat Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), has been granted Rare Pediatric Disease Designation by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Nippon Shinyaku and the National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry jointly discovered the antisense oligonucleotide NS-051/NCNP-04. By omitting a portion of the dystrophin gene’s genetic material, NS-051/NCNP-04 creates a functioning dystrophin protein with a little shorter chain length, which should prevent the decline in muscle function.

Nippon Shinyaku Releases First Clinical Trial (First in Human) of Brogidirsen NS-089/NCNP-02 for the Treatment of Duchenne Nippon Shinyaku Corporation has announced the first human trial results of its drug 'Brogidirsen' (NS-089/NCNP-02), which was developed for exon 44 skipping in the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry is announced the publication of a research paper in Cell Reports Medicine detailing the results of an investigator-initiated trial for NS-089/NCNP-02, known as “brogidirsen.” This innovative treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), jointly developed with Nippon Shinyaku Co., Ltd., represents a significant advancement in exon 44 skipping therapy. What is Brogidirsen? Brogidirsen (NS-089/NCNP-02) is a nucleic acid drug co-discovered by Nippon Shinyaku and NCNP, and is expected to be a therapeutic drug for DMD patients with dystrophin gene mutations amenable to exon 44 skipping.
