What's Going On With Capricor Therapeutics Stock Tuesday?

Capricor Therapeutics, Inc. CAPR shares are trading higher Tuesday after the company reported completion of next steps regarding CAP-1002, a potential treatment option for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).

The Details: The FDA agreed to a pre-Biologics License Application meeting based on data from two clinical studies, HOPE 2 and HOPE 3. The company can begin its BLA filing with a rolling submission, meaning pre-agreed upon parts can be submitted as they are completed. The rolling submission is planned to begin in the 2024 third quarter.

Dr. Linda Marbán, Capricor’s CEO stated, “Furthermore, we are looking forward to our presentation of additional 3-year data from our HOPE-2 OLE study at the upcoming PPMD [Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy] conference which we believe will add further evidence of the efficacy and safety of CAP-1002.”

How To Buy Capricor Therapeutics Stock
