Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On June 3, 2026, Dyne Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing full enrollment of the registrational expansion cohort (the “REC”) of its Phase 1/2 ACHIEVE trial of zeleciment basivarsen (“z-basivarsen,” also known as DYNE-101) in individuals with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (“DM1”). A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information furnished under this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
 

Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On June 3, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing full enrollment of the REC of its Phase 1/2 ACHIEVE trial of z-basivarsen in individuals with DM1 with 71 participants. Additionally, the Company announced the following key milestones for z-basivarsen:

Topline data from the ACHIEVE REC are planned for the first quarter of 2027 to support a potential Biologics License Application (“BLA”) for U.S. Accelerated Approval in the third quarter of 2027.
The Company intends to use data from the REC and from the already enrolled participants in the multiple ascending dose (“MAD”) and ongoing long-term extension portions of the ACHIEVE trial to support a potential BLA submission for Accelerated Approval in the U.S.
The Company expects a potential launch of z-basivarsen in the first half of 2028, assuming FDA grants Priority Review and approval is received on the anticipated timeline.
The Company also continues to pursue approval pathways outside of the U.S. for z-basivarsen in DM1.
