FDA rejects REGENXBIO's RGX-121 BLA for MPS II; company plans resubmission
REGENXBIO Inc.
- FDA issued CRL on Feb 7, 2026 for RGX-121 (clemidsogene lanparvovec) to treat MPS II (Hunter syndrome).
- CRL cites uncertainty in defining neuronopathic population, external control comparability, and surrogate endpoint CSF HS D2S6.
- FDA suggests new study, additional patients, longer follow-up, or untreated control arm; company calls it 'devastating'.
- REGENXBIO plans to request Type A meeting and aim for BLA resubmission with additional data.
- Company had believed it addressed FDA's concerns during BLA review; independent experts supported data.
