Sarepta’s very bad week

After reports of a third patient death on Thursday — this one in a clinical trial — which wasn’t disclosed by the company in its corporate update, an HHS official told Endpoints that the FDA would ask the company to stop shipping its Duchenne muscular dystrophy treatment Elevidys. Stock is down. Leadership is under fire for not being transparent about patient deaths. Where does the company, and the gene therapy industry, go from here?
