• Significant Capital Raise and Extended Runway

  The company reported $69.9 million in cash and short-term investments as of March 31, 2026, up from $27.7 million on December 31, 2025. This increase is primarily due to a February 2026 equity offering that generated $51.9 million in net proceeds, providing an operational runway through 2027.

• Phase 2 BASECAMP Pediatric Study Progress

  The BASECAMP study for SAT-3247 in ambulatory boys with DMD (aged 7-9) is actively enrolling at 11 clinical centers, with additional sites expected to activate in Q2 2026. The study remains on track to complete enrollment in Q3 2026, having identified over 100% of potential participants.

• Phase 2 TRAILHEAD Adult Study Initiated

  The TRAILHEAD study for SAT-3247 in adults with DMD (aged 16-25) has been initiated in the U.S. Four participants from the prior Phase 1b study enrolled in Q4 2025, and the company plans to enroll up to 30 individuals in the U.S. and Australia.

• Increased Research and Development Expenses

  R&D expenses rose to $7.3 million for Q1 2026, compared to $4.5 million for Q1 2025, primarily driven by costs associated with the ongoing BASECAMP and TRAILHEAD clinical studies and increased chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) activities for drug production.
