Solid Biosciences
Solid Biosciences works on 3 rare diseases tracked on Trial Friend, including Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Friedreich Ataxia, with 5 active clinical trials (4 recruiting).
Solid Biosciences is a Charlestown, Massachusetts gene therapy company whose story is one of stubborn persistence in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. After its first-generation candidate ran into safety and potency limits, the company rebuilt around a next-generation therapy, SGT-003, which pairs a rationally designed muscle-tropic capsid (AAV-SLB101) with an improved microdystrophin cargo designed to restore key parts of the protein complex Duchenne destroys.
The rebuild appears to be paying off. In the Phase 1/2 INSPIRE DUCHENNE study, which had dosed 53 participants as of August 4, 2026, SGT-003 produced strong microdystrophin expression with a lower-burden, steroid-only immune regimen, and cardiac monitoring has shown reductions in markers of heart injury with early signals of improved systolic function, notable because heart failure is what ultimately claims most Duchenne patients. In May 2026 Solid dosed the first participant in IMPACT DUCHENNE, a multi-country, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial, and it plans to meet the FDA late in 2026 to ask about a possible accelerated approval path.
Beyond Duchenne, Solid is applying its cardiac gene therapy expertise to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a rare inherited arrhythmia that can cause sudden death in young people, with SGT-501 in a Phase 1b trial. It is also testing SGT-212 in Friedreich ataxia in the Phase 1b FALCON trial. Its next-generation capsid is also being licensed to other developers, extending the platform's reach beyond its own pipeline.
Solid Biosciences Drug Pipeline
Solid Biosciences has 5 active clinical trials across 3 development stages, with 4 currently recruiting participants. Clinical trials advance through phases: Phase 1 tests safety in a small group, Phase 2 evaluates effectiveness and side effects, Phase 3 confirms benefit in a larger population, and Phase 4 monitors long-term safety after FDA approval.
Note: This pipeline counts the active and recruiting trials listed on this page, from ClinicalTrials.gov. For companies that work outside rare disease, we list only trials for rare diseases we track, so the company's full pipeline may be larger.
Solid Biosciences Clinical Trials (5)
Active and recruiting clinical trials sponsored by Solid Biosciences, sourced live from ClinicalTrials.gov. Each trial card shows the study phase, current recruitment status, conditions under investigation, study locations, eligibility criteria, and a direct link to the full ClinicalTrials.gov record. You can also download a one-page PDF summary to share with your doctor.
Note: Recruitment statuses on ClinicalTrials.gov may not immediately reflect recent FDA decisions, sponsor announcements, or enrollment changes. Always confirm a trial's current status directly with the study coordinator.
