Cross-Species BBB-Penetrant IV-Delivered AAV Gene Therapy Provides Broad and Robust CNS Tau Lowering in Tauopathy Mouse Models and Non-Human Primate (ASGCT 2025) - "In the present study, we utilized a second-generation, cross-species BBB-penetrant TRACER™-derived capsid to intravenously deliver a vectorized primary artificial microRNA (pri-amiRNA) containing a potent tau siRNA, VY-1706, in tauopathy mouse models as well as non-human primates (NHP)...These findings demonstrate that the combination of a potent and well-tolerated tau targeting pri-amiRNA with a novel cross-species BBB-penetrant capsid holds promise as a one-time, IV treatment option for AD and other tauopathies. Disease Focus of Abstract:Central Nervous System Disorders"

Voyager Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial and Operating Results (GlobeNewswire) - "Development candidate selected for tau silencing gene therapy program VY1706: In a three-month non-human primate (NHP) study, a single 1.3E13 vg/kg dose of VY1706 delivered intravenously (IV) resulted in reductions in tau mRNA levels of 50% to 73% across the cerebral cortex, including in areas of the brain where tau accumulates during progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Voyager expects to present additional data from the NHP study of VY1706 at the International Conference on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases and Related Neurological Disorders (ADPD) April 1-5, 2025....Anticipated Upcoming Milestones:...2026: U.S. IND and Canadian clinical trial application (CTA) filings anticipated with tau silencing gene therapy VY1706 for AD."

Voyager Provides Update on SOD1 ALS Gene Therapy Program (GlobeNewswire) - "Voyager Therapeutics... today announced it has decided to assess alternate payloads related to its gene therapy program for superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)....Voyager no longer anticipates filing an investigational new drug (IND) application for VY9323 in mid-2025. Voyager’s cash runway is now expected to extend into mid-2027...We continue to expect IND filings in 2025 for our gene therapy candidates for GBA1 and FA, and in 2026 for VY1706."
