Viridian Therapeutics: Veligrotug De-Risked In TED With Hints Of Differentiation
Viridian's veligrotug delivered positive data from two phase 3 trials in active and chronic TED patients. The results from the THRIVE-2 trial in chronic TED patients show hints of differentiation to Tepezza with statistically significant effects on diplopia response and diplopia resolution. Veligrotug's results also provide clinical de-risking for next-generation, subcutaneously administered candidate VRDN-003, which I expect to be the key long-term growth driver for the TED franchise.
