- Larimar Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:LRMR) received meeting minutes from the FDA following a recent Type C Meeting.
- The company plans to submit a complete response to the CTI-1601 clinical hold in Q3.
- In conjunction with the complete response, Larimar is proposing as CTI-1601's next trial a Phase 2, four-week dose exploration study in Friedreich's Ataxia starting at the lower dose levels tested in the company's Phase 1 multiple-ascending dose trial.
- This study will provide additional data on safety & tolerability and whether lower doses for longer periods can increase frataxin levels while maintaining acceptable exposures.
