IPN60130

IPN60130

FOP is caused by a mutation in the ACVR1 gene that results in excessive bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling, which regulates cartilage and bone development. The FOP mutation increases BMP signaling, resulting in the formation of heterotopic bone. IPN60130 is an oral investigational drug designed to selectively target the mutant FOP receptor (ACVR1/ALK2), the underlying cause of FOP. FDA has granted Fast Track Designation to IPN60130 for the treatment of FOP.

About the Clinical Trial

The FALKON Phase 2 trial is a global, multi-center, placebo-controlled trial. Approximately 90 patients 5 years of age or older with the R206H ACVR1 mutation or other FOP variants associated with progressive HO will be enrolled. The trial is designed to evaluate the safety of 2 dosing regimens of oral IPN60130 in inhibiting new HO volume compared with placebo (a dummy treatment) in adult and pediatric participants with FOP.
