RAREUltragenyx PharmaceuticalMust watchPDUFA decision for UX111 gene therapy in MPS IIIA (Sanfilippo syndrome type A) — resubmitted BLA
Mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIA (Sanfilippo syndrome type A)
Ultragenyx is back in front of the FDA with UX111, its AAV9 gene therapy for Sanfilippo syndrome type A — a fatal pediatric neurodegenerative disease with no approved treatment. The FDA issued a CRL in July 2025 over manufacturing (CMC) issues, not efficacy; the resubmitted BLA was accepted in April 2026 with a September 19 action date.

IONSIonis PharmaceuticalsMust watchPDUFA decision for zilganersen in Alexander disease
Alexander disease (AxD)
Ionis' antisense oligonucleotide zilganersen is under priority review for Alexander disease, a progressive and often fatal genetic leukodystrophy with no approved treatment. The pivotal study met its primary endpoint, showing statistically significant stabilization of gait speed at week 61, with supportive motor-function results in children ages 2-4.

AMLXAmylyx PharmaceuticalsPhase 3 LUCIDITY topline data for avexitide in post-bariatric hypoglycemia
Post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH)
Amylyx — rebuilding after the Relyvrio withdrawal — reads out its Phase 3 LUCIDITY study of avexitide, a GLP-1 receptor antagonist for post-bariatric hypoglycemia, guided for Q3 2026. PBH affects a meaningful share of the growing bariatric-surgery population and has no approved therapy.

CRSPCRISPR TherapeuticsCTX112 Phase 1 initial data
B-cell malignancies
CRISPR Therapeutics is presenting initial data from a Phase 1 trial of CTX112, an allogeneic CAR-T cell therapy for B-cell malignancies. This is an early-stage readout, but it's significant because CTX112 is designed to improve on existing CAR-T therapies by enhancing efficacy and reducing side effects. The data will show safety and preliminary efficacy in patients who have failed other treatments.

NTLAIntellia TherapeuticsMust watchPotential accelerated approval filing for NTLA-2002 in HAE
Hereditary angioedema (HAE)
Intellia is expected to file for accelerated approval of NTLA-2002, a CRISPR-based therapy for hereditary angioedema, a rare genetic disorder causing severe swelling attacks. This filing is based on promising Phase 1/2 data showing durable reduction in attacks. If approved, it would be the first CRISPR therapy for a non-blood disease, marking a major milestone.

NBIXNeurocrine BiosciencesPhase 3 data for NBI-1065845 in MDD (first trial)
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
Neurocrine is reporting Phase 3 data for NBI-1065845, an investigational drug for major depressive disorder. This is the first of two pivotal trials, and positive results would support a new treatment option for the millions of patients who don't respond to existing antidepressants. The drug works by a novel mechanism, which could differentiate it from current therapies.
Phase 3Data Readout

What Pro adds
The dates are free. The analysis is the product.
Anyone can find a PDUFA date. What loses people money is not knowing what the trial has to show, or which risk nobody put in the press release. Pro adds three layers to every entry above.
What success has to prove
The primary endpoint, the effect size that would count as clinically meaningful, and the safety bar — stated before the readout, not after.
What failure looks like
Missed endpoints, weak durability, subgroup problems, and the label-limiting safety signals that turn a "positive" trial into a bad outcome.
Financing and dilution risk
Cash runway against the catalyst date, and whether a positive result is likely to be followed by a raise anyway.
