- Clinical Trial Success: Sangamo's STAAR study demonstrated a positive mean annualized eGFR slope at 52 weeks across all dosed patients, with the FDA agreeing to use this as an endpoint for accelerated approval, indicating ST-920's potential as an effective treatment for Fabry disease patients.
- Favorable Safety Profile: Isaralgagene civaparvovec exhibited a favorable safety and tolerability profile in clinical trials, suggesting its potential as a one-time gene therapy that can provide durable clinical benefits, surpassing current treatment standards for Fabry disease.
- Accelerated Approval Pathway: Sangamo expects to complete its Biological License Application (BLA) submission to the FDA in the second quarter of 2026 using a rolling submission approach, allowing for ongoing review of completed modules, thereby expediting the approval process to meet urgent patient needs.
- Regulatory Support: Isaralgagene civaparvovec has received Orphan Drug, Fast Track, and RMAT designations from the FDA, along with Orphan Medicinal Product designation from the European Medicines Agency, highlighting its potential value and regulatory recognition in global markets, further enhancing Sangamo's competitive position.

About SGMO
Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. is a genomic medicine company. The Company’s zinc finger (ZF) epigenetic regulators are ideally suited to potentially address neurological disorders and its capsid engineering platform has demonstrated the ability to expand delivery beyond available intrathecal delivery capsids, including in the central nervous system (CNS), in preclinical studies. Zinc finger technologies are derived from naturally occurring human proteins. They are composed of a DNA-binding domain, which binds with precision to any sequence of DNA, and various functional domains (such as nucleases and transcription factors) based on therapeutic needs. Its pipeline includes Chronic Neuropathic Pain - ST-503 and Isaralgagene civaparvovec (ST-920). ST-503 is an investigational epigenetic regulator for the treatment of intractable pain due to iSFN, a type of chronic neuropathic pain. ST-920 is a wholly owned gene therapy product candidate for the treatment of Fabry disease.
