ELEVATE-45-201 sites have also been activated, and we remain on track to dose the first patient in the third quarter of this year, making it the most advanced clinical study of a conjugated exon skipping therapy for individuals amenable to exon 45 skipping. These two programs provide the potential for multiple clinical data readouts across our growing Duchenne franchise in 2026,” said Dipal Doshi, Chief Executive Officer at Entrada Therapeutics. Mr. Doshi continued, “This important progress, coupled with the upcoming regulatory submissions to initiate ELEVATE-50 later this year and ELEVATE-51 in 2026, continue to drive clinical momentum for large Duchenne patient populations with profound unmet need. In parallel, we are strategically strengthening our organization with key hires to support our expanding pipeline while remaining committed to financial discipline.” Second Quarter and Recent Corporate Highlights Clinical-Stage Development Pipeline: Since January 2025, Entrada has advanced multiple clinical programs in people living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in the U.K., EU and U.S. These programs include: ELEVATE-44-201: First patient dosed in the global Phase 1/2 multiple ascending dose (MAD) clinical study of ENTR-601-44 in ambulatory patients living with DMD who are amenable to exon 44 skipping.
