In March 2019, Biogen launched a Phase 3 clinical trial. Called VALOR, the study enrolled 178 people with SOD1-ALS, who received an undisclosed, fixed dose of BIIB067 or placebo for 28 weeks.
The trial was conducted at 31 sites in North America, Europe, Australia, and Japan, and finish in July 2021.
Currently there is no news for this study on clinicaltrial.gov.
yet it seems a new phase III with 150 participants was started in April 2021 (NCT04856982) ???

Jean-Pierre – is this part of the same study? https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02623699
This study, along with the other Tofferson studies, is part of what the University of Miami Pre-fALS study is involved in. There are many other sites (as mentioned in the ling) that also participate in the US and Europe.

I can’t find any news on internet. -

You are correct Phase III of the Biogen Tofersen Trial ended in July of this year. In April an extension of the Trial started for those patients who had already participated in the Trial, and wanted to participate, where everyone would now be getting Tofersen, even those previously receiving the placebo
In addition Biogen has now just started a new Clinical Trial for people with fast progressing SOD1 ALS who are not symptomatic.
Results have not been released yet.

Sorry I have no special information other than what was posted in Biogen and Ionis’ public statement.
However they say: “Given the high unmet medical need, Biogen will expand its ongoing early access program (EAP) to the broader SOD1-ALS population”
