<p>Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Vanda) (Nasdaq:&nbsp;VNDA) today announced the first dose in the&nbsp;first-in-human&nbsp;clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VCA-894A, an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) therapeutic, for a patient with a rare variant in the&nbsp;<i>IGHMBP2&nbsp;</i>gene causing Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Type 2S (CMT2S).</p>
<p>VCA-894A is being developed for a patient who was first diagnosed at the age of 5 with a rare subtype of CMT disease known as CMT2S.1 CMT2S is an inherited neuromuscular disorder that progressively leads to muscle weakness and loss of motor function, and has an estimated prevalence of less than 1 in 1,000,000 worldwide.2 The severity and clinical presentations of CMT2S are influenced by the diverse genetic variants associated with CMT disease.</p>
<p>VCA-894A targets a patient-specific IGHMBP2 variant and has been previously shown to restore expression levels of the IGHMBP2 gene in an "organ-on-a-chip" NMJ (neuromuscular junction) system derived from the patient's cells, highlighting the exciting potential of this approach for personalized therapeutics for rare diseases. This platform has the potential to unlock the development of treatments that can address significantly unmet medical needs based on identified causative genetic variants.</p>

12 Health Care Stocks Moving In Wednesday's After-Market Session

<p>WASHINGTON, April 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --&nbsp;Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("Vanda") (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VNDA#NASDAQ">VNDA</a>) today announced that FDA bureaucrats have committed to delay Vanda's request for a hearing on the approvability of tradipitant for gastroparesis. Rather than take accountability, FDA bureaucrats identify a new scapegoat: newly appointed Commissioner, Dr. Martin Makary, and reductions in force.</p>
<p>FDA last night represented to a federal court that the April 1 reduction in force is partially to blame for the Center for Drug and Evaluation and Research's delay of at least 6 more months to provide its recommendation on whether&nbsp;the Commissioner should hold a hearing. But this cannot be true. Commissioner Makary said that any cuts were not to scientists or reviewers, the very individuals who supposedly need more time. This excuse is also suspect because CDER, in prior matters, has requested the same or longer delay to provide hearing recommendations: CDER took six months to submit a proposed order on the Hetlioz jet lag hearing request and likewise requested six months for the Hetlioz insomnia application.</p>
<p>It is unfair for CDER and its lawyers to blame the recent reductions in force for their habitual institutional delays on hearing requests. These statements also conceal the extraordinary fact that FDA has denied every hearing request on new drug approvability for at least the past decade.</p>
<p>FDA bureaucrats have created policies to avoid scrutiny of their decision-making by habitually denying hearings. FDA's office of chief counsel and DOJ have repeatedly defended FDA's right to act unlawfully when confronted by federal judges. When considering FDA's delay in resolving Vanda's hearing request in a prior instance, a federal judge pointedly asked FDA whether it was "conceding that the [HHS] Secretary is presently not complying with the statute," and a DOJ lawyer replied, "Yes, your Honor".</p>
<p>We urge Commissioner Makary to step in and restore adherence to the law at FDA; targeted RIFs are not to blame for FDA's culture of delay and closemindedness. Commissioner Makary and Secretary Kennedy have been clear that "radical transparency and common sense" should be the operating culture of the Agency. We also urge Attorney General Bondi to stop DOJ lawyers from defending unlawful Agency actions.</p>
<p>"Vanda has fought for 'transparency and common sense' for years because rational innovation can only thrive in a democracy and not in a bureaucracy. It is time for FDA and DOJ to stop fighting innovators like Vanda, focus on what is broken and listen to ideas of how it can be fixed, and usher in a new era of rational and transparent decision making," said Dr. Mihael Polymeropoulos, Vanda's President, CEO and Chairman of the Board.</p>
