(Nasdaq: FDMT), a clinical-stage biotherapeutics company harnessing the power of directed evolution for targeted genetic medicines, announced that interim clinical data from the Phase 1/2 clinical trial of 4D-710 for cystic fibrosis lung disease were presented at the North American Cystic Fibrosis Conference (NACFC). The presentation focused on safety, tolerability, and delivery and expression of the 4D-710 CFTR∆R transgene in lung tissue samples from patients enrolled in cohort 1 (n=3; 1E15 vg). 4D Molecular Therapeutics will host a conference call today, November 3, 2022, at 1:30 p.m. PT to discuss the interim clinical data. “We are honored by the selection of our late-breaking clinical data for presentation both in the NACFC symposium today and in the clinical plenary session tomorrow,” said David Kirn, M.D., Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of 4DMT. “These landmark CFTR expression data were achieved in the CF population with the highest unmet medical need, those who are not eligible for CFTR modulators. These interim results underscore the encouraging potential of 4D-710 for patients with cystic fibrosis lung disease, and the potential of our proprietary A101 vector for other lung diseases. Finally, these results further validate our Therapeutic Vector Evolution platform.” Dr. Jennifer L. Taylor-Cousar, Professor, Departments of Medicine and Pediatrics, and Co-Director, Adult Cystic Fibrosis Program; Director, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Therapeutics Development Center, National Jewish Health; and the lead principal investigator on the 4D-710 phase 1/2 clinical trial, presented the clinical data at the NACFC 2022 conference. Dr. Taylor-Cousar added, “In our Phase 1/2 clinical trial, I’m very encouraged by the robust and widespread transgene expression demonstrated in all three participants’ lungs at this first dose level.
