Bull points
- We are very excited about the durability of the data that we're seeing.
- We have biopsies out for years that are stable or actually increasing, and we have functional outcomes especially looking at some of the physical measurements, respiratory measurements.
- we had a bunch of internal discussions bars that we needed to cross to get excited about 003. And we crossed them, and we are excited, and we're taking it to the clinic. And we think there's a lot more potential here outside of Duchenne, too.
Bear points
- That has allowed us to streamline our organization's structure and reduce our headcount by approximately 35%
