PTC Therapeutics Surges Ahead With Positive Votoplam Data and US$50m Novartis Milestone PTC Therapeutics reported positive 24‑month interim data from the PIVOT-HD long-term extension study of votoplam in Stage 2 Huntington’s disease.
Patients on the 10 mg dose of votoplam showed a 52% reduction in disease progression vs natural history controls, while the 5 mg dose showed a 28% reduction, with a favorable safety and biomarker profile.
The data triggered a US$50m milestone payment as Novartis advanced votoplam into the global Phase 3 INVEST-HD trial, and Raymond James initiated coverage with an Outperform rating and a US$108 price target.
For investors, the key takeaway is that votoplam has moved further into late-stage development, with a large Phase 3 program in early-stage Huntington’s disease now underway. The reported dose-dependent effect on disease progression and the absence of new safety concerns, including no treatment-related neurofilament light chain spikes, highlight both the potential clinical relevance and the current risk profile seen in this dataset.
The US$50m milestone from Novartis and new analyst coverage following the data underscore how central votoplam appears to PTC Therapeutics’ pipeline, alongside the company’s launch of Sephience for phenylketonuria management. The planned April 28, 2026 conference call is expected to offer more detail on the PIVOT-HD results, the trial design for INVEST-HD, and management’s views on future development and commercialization paths.

PTC Therapeutics Reports Positive Topline Results from Month 24 Interim Analysis of PIVOT-HD Extension Study of Votoplam PTC Therapeutics, Inc. reported positive topline results from the 24-month interim analysis of the PIVOT-HD long-term extension study, with favorable dose-dependent effects on disease progression for Stage 2 Huntington's disease (HD) patients following 24 months of votoplam treatment compared to an external natural history cohort. The PIVOT-HD study was a 12-month placebo-controlled study of two dose levels of votoplam in participants with Stage 2 and Stage 3 HD. The study met the primary endpoint of blood Huntingtin (HTT) protein lowering at 12 weeks, with persistent dose-dependent lowering at Month 12. PIVOT-HD participants then enrolled in the PIVOT-HD extension study in which those originally randomized to receive 5 mg or 10 mg of votoplam remained on those dose levels. Participants initially randomized to receive placebo were randomized to receive 5 mg or 10 mg. All participants and investigators remain blinded to initial PIVOT-HD treatment assignment. The objectives of the long-term extension study are to assess the safety and efficacy of long-term votoplam treatment. In the interim analysis following 24 months of votoplam treatment, there was evidence of dose-dependent benefit in slowing progression on the Composite Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale (cUHDRS) relative to a propensity weighted natural history cohort in Stage 2 participants, with 52% and 28% slowing for 10 mg and 5 mg participants, respectively. Signals of favorable treatment effects relative to natural history were recorded across the cUHDRS subscales for the 10 mg cohort. In addition, there were no treatment-related neurofilament light chain protein (NfL) increases and mean NfL levels remained below baseline at 24 months for both high and low dose cohorts – in contrast to the reported natural history that NfL levels increase over time in individuals with HD. In Stage 3 participants, potential signals of slowing of progression were observed at 24 months. The safety data at Month 24 for both dose levels and both stages were consistent with the previously established evidence of favorable safety. Novartis announced their initiation of the global Phase 3 INVEST-HD study on their First Quarter Earnings Call. This placebo-controlled study will enroll approximately 770 individuals with early-stage HD who will be randomized 3:2 to receive votoplam 10 mg or placebo. The primary endpoint will be the change from baseline up to month 36 in the cUHDRS. The INVEST-HD study is sponsored and funded by Novartis. Novartis and PTC will continue to review the data and discuss potential next steps including regulatory interactions. PIVOT-HD was designed as a 12-month placebo-controlled trial to assess pharmacodynamic effect and safety of votoplam at two dose levels, 5 mg and 10 mg, relative to placebo. Initially, the study included only Stage 2 patients. A Stage 3 cohort of similar size was subsequently added to help identify the best study population for future studies. The primary endpoints of PIVOT-HD were total blood Huntingtin (HTT) lowering at 12 weeks and safety events. Secondary endpoints included 12-month blood HTT levels, and other blood-and central nervous system (CNS) biomarkers as well as changes in Composite Unified Huntington's Disease Rating Scale (cUHDRS). Following 12 months, patients were eligible to enroll in a long-term extension study in which all subjects would receive votoplam. Those originally randomized to 5 mg and 10 mg would continue at that dose level; those initially randomized to placebo would be randomized 1:1 to 5 mg or 10 mg. All subjects and investigators remain blinded to initial treatment assignment. Votoplam (formerly PTC518) is a small molecule splicing modifier that acts via a unique mechanism to promote the inclusion of a novel pseudoexon containing a premature termination codon, thus triggering Huntingtin (HTT) mRNA degradation and subsequent reduction in HTT protein levels. Votoplam was discovered from PTC's validated splicing platform, following the successful discovery and development of Evrysdi (risdiplam) for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Votoplam was partnered with Novartis in December 2024. Following the completion of the PIVOT-HD clinical trial, Novartis assumed responsibility for votoplam's development, manufacturing and commercialization. Huntington's disease (HD) is a fatal, hereditary, genetic disorder of the central nervous system. It is caused by a defective gene. This gene produces a protein, called Huntingtin (HTT), which is involved in the functioning of the nerve cells in the brain (neurons). When the gene is defective, it produces an abnormal (or mutated) HTT protein that is toxic and causes neuron damage and neuron death. HD usually presents in people who are in their 30s or 40s. Symptoms can present earlier in life, and this is called Juvenile HD. There are also cases of infantile HD, when symptoms develop in children who are younger than 10 years old. While symptoms vary from person to person, the disease primarily affects the brain and results in abnormal movements, difficulties with speech, swallowing and walking, as well as a number of other symptoms including behavioral, cognitive and motor symptoms. While there are therapies approved for specific disease symptoms, currently, there is no cure for HD and there are no approved drugs that delay the onset or slow disease progression.

New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Currently running at an operating cash loss. This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (currently running at an operating cash loss). Negative equity (-US$186m). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 54% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risk Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$1.6m sold).

PTC Therapeutics, Inc. Announces Results from the Phase 2 PIVOT-HD Study of PTC518 (Votoplam) in Stage 2 and Stage 3 Huntington's Disease Patients PTC Therapeutics, Inc. announced results from the Phase 2 PIVOT-HD study of PTC518 (votoplam) in Stage 2 and Stage 3 Huntington's disease (HD) patients. The study met its primary endpoint of reduction in blood Huntingtin (HTT) protein levels (pIVOT-HD was designed as a 12-month placebo-controlled trial to assess pharmacodynamic effect and safety of PTC518 at two dose levels--5mg and 10mg, relative to placebo. Those originally randomized to 5mg and 10mg would continue at that dose level; those initially randomized to 5mg or 10mg. All subjects and investigators remain blinded to initial treatment assignment. Presentation of study results is expected at a scientific meeting later in the year. PTC518 is a small molecule splicing modifier that acts via a unique mechanism to promote the inclusion of a novel pseudoexon containing a premature termination codon, thus triggering Huntingtin (HTT) mRNA degradation and subsequent reduction in HTT protein levels. PTC518 was discovered from PTC's validated splicing platform, following the successful discovery and development of Evrysdi (risdiplam) for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Aankondiging • May 01

PTC Therapeutics, Inc. Provides Regulatory Update on Translarna (Aaluren) in Europe PTC Therapeutics, Inc. announced that the European Commission (EC) has adopted the opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to not renew the authorization of Translarna (ataluren) for the treatment of nonsense mutation Duchenne muscular dystrophy. While this action effectively removes the drug's conditional marketing authorization in the European Economic Area, the EC indicated that individual countries within the European Union can leverage Articles 117(3) and 5(1) of the EU Directive 2001/83 to allow continued use of Translarna. Translarna (ataluren), discovered and developed by PTC Therapeutics, is a protein restoration therapy designed to enable the formation of a functioning protein in patients with genetic disorders caused by a nonsense mutation. A nonsense mutation is an alteration in the genetic code that prematurely halts the synthesis of an essential protein. The resulting disorder is determined by which protein cannot be expressed in its entirety and is no longer functional, such as dystrophin in Duchenne. Translarna, the tradename of ataluren, is licensed in multiple countries for the treatment of nonsense mutation Duchenne muscular dystrophy (nmDMD) in ambulatory patients aged 2 years and older. Ataluren is an investigational new drug in the United States. Aankondiging • Mar 20
PTC Therapeutics Presents New Sepiapterin Data from Ongoing Studies PTC Therapeutics, Inc. shared new data being presented from the Phase 3 APHENITY trial and subsequent open-label extension study at the 2025 American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Annual Clinical Genetics Meeting. These data provide further evidence of the potential meaningful benefits of sepiapterin treatment for the full spectrum of phenylketonuria (PKU) patients, including significant diet liberalization. Key data presented include: Over 97% of subjects participating in the Phe tolerance protocol of the APHENITY open-label extension study demonstrate the ability to liberalize their diet while on sepiapterin treatment, with a mean increase in protein intake of 126%. 66% of subjects participating in the Phe tolerance sub study reached or exceeded the age-adjusted recommended daily allowance of protein intake for an individual without PKU, while maintaining control of blood Phe levels. Genetic variant analysis of subjects participating in the APHENITY study demonstrates that over 70% had a Genotype-Phenotype Value (GPV) consistent with classical PKU.
