Glyn Edwards, chief executive of Summit Therapeutics PLC (LON:SUMM,NASDAQ:SMMT), adds a bit of extra detail to their announcement this week around the interim data for their treatment for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).

The interim results for the PhaseOut study revealed a "statistically significant and meaningful" reduction in muscle damage in patients taking the company's treatment, ezutromid.

''We're really pleased ... I wouldn't say we're surprised as we believe in the technology and we've been really hopeful that we're going to be able to make a huge impact on this really nasty disease that affects so many young men''.
