Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ELOX), a leader in ribosomal RNA-targeted genetic therapies for rare diseases, today reported results from an assessment of patient biopsies by NIPOKA GmbH (Nipoka). They have developed a highly accurate method for the quantification of podocyte foot process morphology. These results confirm previously reported positive biopsy results from the proof-of-concept Phase 2 open-label clinical trial (NCT05448755) of ELX-02 for the treatment of Nonsense Mutation Alport syndrome patients. Analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) biopsy samples by Nipoka show ELX-02 treatment improved podocyte foot process morphology with lower effacement in all three patients at the end of the 8-week study period.
