Overview
Viridian Therapeutics has achieved a significant milestone with its anti-IGF-1R antibody in a second phase 3 trial for chronic thyroid eye disease, meeting the primary endpoint. This success follows earlier mixed results and positions Viridian as a strong competitor to Amgen's established Tepezza treatment, especially for patients with chronic manifestations of the disease. The company is preparing to submit for FDA approval next year, potentially expanding treatment options in a market dominated by Tepezza.
