About AGAMREE

AGAMREE was developed to uncouple the anti-inflammatory effects of corticosteroids commonly used in DMD from certain side effects

AGAMREE is…

Group 15

A Corticosteroid With a Novel Structure

AGAMREE is structurally unique compared with corticosteroids commonly used to treat DMD

1.0-anti-inflammatory-icon

Designed to Retain Strong Anti-Inflammatory Action

Like corticosteroids commonly used to treat DMD, AGAMREE inhibits the activity of a protein complex that is an important factor in the inflammatory process

While the way AGAMREE works to treat DMD is not fully understood, it is thought that AGAMREE treats DMD through its strong anti-inflammatory action

Effectiveness in Clinical Studies

AGAMREE is clinically proven to improve muscle strength and function in boys living with DMD

Study Design

Study 1 included 121 male patients with DMD (ages 4 to less than 7 years) who were randomly assigned to be treated with AGAMREE 6 mg/kg/day (n=30), AGAMREE 2 mg/kg/day (n=30), prednisone 0.75 mg/kg/day (n=31), or placebo/sugar pill (n=30) for 24 weeks. The primary measure of muscle strength and function was the Time to Stand Test (TTSTAND) speed.
