Zevra Therapeutics Showcases MIPLYFFA Advances at WORLDSymposium
Zevra Therapeutics Highlights MIPLYFFA at Major Symposium
Zevra Therapeutics is set to receive a prestigious 2025 New Treatment Award for MIPLYFFA™
Zevra Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZVRA), a leader in rare disease therapeutics, is excited to share that it has had a remarkable acceptance of eight abstracts detailing the clinical achievements related to its innovative treatment, MIPLYFFA™ (arimoclomol), at the upcoming WORLDSymposium™. Among these, one particular study highlighting the efficacy results from a comprehensive 12-month randomized trial has been chosen for an oral presentation by Dr. Eugen Mengel.
Momentum in Clinical Research
In these presentations, key insights from research on MIPLYFFA will be showcased, focusing on its role in managing Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC), a challenging condition that impacts both adults and children. The choice of the oral presentation emphasizes the significance of the findings, which relate to the R4DNPCCSS, a critical clinical severity score used for NPC.
Oral Presentation Overview
The oral presentation is scheduled for an afternoon session, where Dr. Mengel will convey the profound implications of MIPLYFFA’s effects. The findings underscore the importance of effective treatments for patients facing the devastating impacts of NPC.
Acknowledgment of Innovative Advancements
The honor of the New Treatment Award at the WORLDSymposium reflects Zevra's commitment to excellence in the treatment of lysosomal diseases, particularly in advancing MIPLYFFA’s clinical application. Dr. Adrian Quartel, Chief Medical Officer at Zevra, articulates the resilience shown throughout the FDA approval process and expresses gratitude towards all the stakeholders, combined in effort to support the NPC community.
This award recognizes the dedication required to bring innovative solutions to patients and highlights the collaborative effort across various fields, including clinical research, patient advocacy, and care.

Understanding MIPLYFFA’s Role in NPC
MIPLYFFA operates by enhancing the activation of essential transcription factors, leading to improved regulation of genes critical for lysosomal function. It has shown the potential to reduce harmful cholesterol accumulation in cellular lysosomes. The treatment is currently indicated for usage in combination with miglustat for managing neurological manifestations of NPC for both adults and children over two years.
The need for effective therapies to combat the relentless progression of NPC has never been more critical, as this condition presents varying symptoms that can drastically influence the quality of life. Zevra’s continual research efforts highlight an ongoing commitment to understanding and addressing these complex conditions.
Importance of Collaboration
Attendees at the WORLDSymposium are encouraged to engage with Zevra’s team during the event, which will take place over several days filled with informative sessions and collaborative discussions. Zevra is proud of its presence at the symposium where opportunities for dialogue and exchange of knowledge flourish among researchers, healthcare professionals, and advocates.
