LXEOHIGH SIGNALREGULATORY10-K

LXEO achieved major clinical milestones with positive interim data from multiple trials and advanced to final FDA discussions for their registrational SUNRISE-FA 2 study, while significantly strengthening their balance sheet.

The company has progressed from early-stage clinical updates to presenting compelling efficacy data at major medical conferences and submitting final trial designs to the FDA, indicating substantial advancement toward potential commercialization. The removal of previous safety concerns (myocarditis case) from the filing and emphasis on sustained cardiac and neurologic improvements suggests the clinical program is maturing successfully.

ADDED
In October 2025, we reported positive interim clinical data demonstrating an encouraging safety profile and evidence of meaningful cardiac and functional benefit.
Further, interim clinical data presented in a late-breaker presentation at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Annual Meeting in March 2026 continue to show sustained or deepening improvements across both cardiac and neurologic measures of FA.
In February 2026, we submitted the final registrational trial design and statistical analysis plan for the SUNRISE-FA 2 study to the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following a Type B meeting.
We expect to receive final feedback from the FDA in the second quarter of 2026 and plan to initiate a registrational study in the first half of 2026.

In July 2024, we provided an interim clinical update, which included baseline characteristics from 11 treated participants across the two studies and data from 8 participants who had reached at least 6-months of follow-up as of that time.
These data showed improvements in key cardiac biomarkers including left ventricular mass index, lateral wall thickness, and high-sensitivity troponin I.
Additionally, in November 2024 we reported that we observed an increase in frataxin protein expression in the hearts of four patients that had undergone cardiac biopsies (cohort 1 (n=1), cohort 2 (n=3)) as measured by LCMS and immunohistochemistry.
LX2006 has been generally well-tolerated across both trials to date.
One year after dosing, one participant with multiple comorbidities and a history of flu-like symptoms presented with Grade 2 asymptomatic myocarditis.
