(Larimar) (Nasdaq: LRMR), today announced positive initial data from the ongoing long-term OLE study evaluating daily subcutaneous injections of 25 mg of nomlabofusp self-administered or administered by a caregiver in participants with FA. 

The Company also provided a nomlabofusp development program update. 

We are pleased with the advancement of our OLE study that includes 14 patients dosed for up to 260 days. Importantly, 25 mg of nomlabofusp administered daily increased and maintained tissue FXN levels over time, with mean levels increasing from 15% of healthy volunteers at baseline to 30% in buccal cells and from 16% to 72% in skin cells at Day 90. At the time of data cut off for the OLE study, 14 adults with FA were included with up to 260 days (mean 99 days) of long-term daily treatment of 25 mg of nomlabofusp. Among these patients, more than 50% were non-ambulatory.
