AMYLYX PHARMACEUTICALS
Helios Update

Earlier in February 2024, Amylyx Pharmaceuticals announced that enrollment was completed in the Phase 2 HELIOS clinical trial of AMX0035 (sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol) for the treatment of Wolfram syndrome.

HELIOS is a 48-week exploratory, open-label proof of biology study assessing the effect of AMX0035 on a number of measures, including pancreatic function (mainly pertaining to diabetes), visual function, and Wolfram syndrome disease rating instruments.

The study, being conducted at Washington University in St. Louis, has enrolled 12 adult participants living with Wolfram syndrome, and preliminary results are anticipated in the second half of 2024. Data from this initial study will play an important role in giving Amylyx information needed to make decisions for potential future trials. Amylyx looks forward to sharing the results with the community, including at scientific meetings, when they are available.

McCarthy Building Company’s annual Dan Licari Memorial Fishing Tournament raised $13,445.00 for the Snow Foundation to support the Bieser family in their fight against Wolfram Syndrome.. THANK YOU!!!!
