Summary

FDA advisory committee vote on Deramiocel. On 7/29/2026, the committee voted 3–9, with no abstentions, that available evidence did not support effectiveness for DMD-related cardiomyopathy. The vote addressed a narrower indication than Capricor proposed, was non-binding, and did not address Deramiocel’s overall benefit-risk profile; separate discussion of upper-limb function was directionally supportive of Phase 3 HOPE-3 evidence, including its primary PUL 2.0 endpoint.
