Sarepta Therapeutics Announces Voluntary Pause of ELEVIDYS Shipments in the U.S.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 21, 2025-- Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:SRPT), the leader in precision genetic medicine for rare diseases, today issued the following statement:

Today, Sarepta Therapeutics notified the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of its decision to voluntarily and temporarily pause all shipments of ELEVIDYS (delandistrogene moxeparvovec) for Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the United States, effective close of business Tuesday, July 22, 2025.

This proactive step will allow Sarepta the necessary time to respond to any requests for information and allow Sarepta and FDA to complete the ELEVIDYS safety labeling supplement process. The Company looks forward to a collaborative, science-driven review process and dialogue with the FDA.

“As a patient-centric organization, the decision to voluntarily and temporarily pause shipments of ELEVIDYS was a painful one, as individuals with Duchenne are losing muscle daily and in need of disease-modifying options,” said Doug Ingram, chief executive officer, Sarepta. “It is important for the patients we serve that Sarepta maintains a productive and positive working relationship with FDA, and it became obvious that maintaining that productive working relationship required this temporary suspension while we address any questions that FDA may have and complete the ELEVIDYS label supplement process.”

Sarepta remains committed to transparency and patient safety and will continue to provide timely updates to patients, families, healthcare providers, and the broader Duchenne community as additional information becomes available.
