Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Understanding
Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Overview
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a disorder characterized by muscle weakness and wasting (atrophy). The disorder gets its name from muscles that are affected in the face (facio), around the shoulder blades (scapulo), and in the upper arms (humeral). Hamstring and trunk muscles are affected -early on but are less well recognized. Other arm and leg muscles are frequently eventually affected in the course of the disease. Symptoms usually appear before age 20, but can begin in infancy or later in adulthood. Severity of the condition varies widely and some people with the disease allele remain asymptomatic. FSHD is most typically characterized by relatively slow disease progression. Specific symptoms and findings may also vary in range and severity, including among affected members of the same family. Life expectancy is not shortened. FSHD is usually inherited as an autosomal dominant genetic condition. FSHD may be diagnosed based upon a thorough clinical examination, identification of characteristic physical findings, a complete individual and family history, and genetic testing. In some affected individuals, laboratory studies may reveal elevated levels of a particular enzyme in the fluid portion of the blood (serum creatine kinase). Tests may also be conducted to record electrical activity in voluntary (skeletal) muscles at rest and during muscle contraction (electromyography [EMG]). Surgical removal (biopsy) and microscopic examination of small samples of muscle tissue is generally not informative in FSHD. Treatment of FSH dystrophy involves a multidisciplinary team. A neurologist oversees the various needs of the patient and directs care. Specialists in rehabilitation medicine are present to meet with patients and provide individualized exercise and stretching programs for the treatment of weakness and contractures. Patients can also be evaluated for the need for splints, orthotics, or other equipment to help with hand or foot function. Social and financial needs can also be addressed. Some patients with FSH dystrophy may have hearing loss or abnormalities of the blood vessels in the eye.

Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy Emerging Drugs
Losmapimod: Fulcrum Therapeutics
Losmapimod is an investigational, selective p38α/β mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor. Fulcrum exclusively in-licensed losmapimod from GSK following Fulcrum’s discovery of the role of p38α/β inhibitors in the reduction of DUX4 expression and an extensive review of known compounds. Results reported from the ReDUX4 trial demonstrated slowed disease progression and improved function, including positive impacts on upper extremity strength, supporting losmapimod’s potential to be a transformative therapy for the treatment of FSHD. Although losmapimod had never previously been explored in muscular dystrophies, it had been evaluated in more than 3,600 subjects in clinical trials across multiple other indications, with no safety signals attributed to losmapimod. Losmapimod has been granted FDA Fast Track designation and Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of FSHD. Fulcrum Therapeutics intends to submit regulatory application to the US FDA and EMA in Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. The drug is currently in Phase III stage of development for the treatment of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD).
ATYR1940: aTyr Pharma
ATYR1940 is based on a protein naturally secreted from muscle (Resokine) that may act to influence T-cell activation at the tissue level to promote healthier muscle. ATYR1940 as a potential first-in-class intravenous protein therapeutic candidate for the treatment of rare myopathies with an immune component. There is potential that ATYR1940 may translate into an innovative therapeutic for rare genetic myopathies with an immune component, including limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Currently the product is in Phase I/II stage of development for the treatment of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD).
DYNE-301: Dyne Therapeutics
DYNE-301 is a DUX4L1 protein expression stimulant, which consists of company’s proprietary Fab conjugated with our linker to an ASO that is designed to address the genetic basis of FSHD by reducing DUX4 expression in muscle tissue. Proof-of-concept data showing that DYNE-301 reduced expression of key DUX4 biomarkers in FSHD patient myotubes, a type of muscle cell. Company anticipate submitting an IND for DYNE-301 in the second half of 2022. Currently the product is in preclinical stage of development for the treatment of Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy.
