Zevra Therapeutics to Present New MIPLYFFA Data at International Congress, Including Best Poster Award Winner
Zevra Therapeutics will present four posters on MIPLYFFA (arimoclomol) at the International Congress of Inborn Errors of Metabolism, including a Best Poster award-winning presentation detailing its mechanism of action for treating Niemann-Pick disease type C, highlighting significant advancements in rare disease treatment.
Zevra Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQGS: ZVRA), a commercial-stage company focused on therapies for rare diseases, announced that four posters on MIPLYFFA (arimoclomol) will be presented at the International Congress of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (ICIEM), held September 2-6, 2025, in Kyoto, Japan. MIPLYFFA, approved in the U.S. for the treatment of Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC), will be highlighted in a Best Poster award-winning presentation detailing its unique mechanism of action targeting NPC pathophysiology.
The presentation of new data at this prestigious international conference underscores the growing body of evidence supporting MIPLYFFA's efficacy in treating this rare and devastating disease. Additional presentations will feature positive new data from a pediatric substudy in patients younger than two years old, addressing a critical unmet need in this vulnerable patient population. This data is particularly significant as early intervention in rare metabolic disorders can dramatically impact disease progression and quality of life outcomes.
Another key presentation will include a prespecified efficacy analysis in patients on miglustat who switched from placebo to MIPLYFFA, providing valuable insights into treatment sequencing and combination approaches. The recognition of the MIPLYFFA poster with a Best Poster award at an international congress of this caliber validates the scientific merit and clinical importance of this research.

The implications of these presentations extend beyond the scientific community to patients and families affected by Niemann-Pick disease type C, a progressive and fatal genetic disorder. The data being presented represents important advancements in understanding how MIPLYFFA works and its potential benefits across different patient populations, including very young children and those transitioning from other treatments. This comprehensive dataset strengthens the position of MIPLYFFA as a meaningful therapeutic option for NPC patients.
