What it is
ACE-031 (Acceleron) was a soluble activin receptor IIB tested in Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Trials were halted due to nosebleeds and telangiectasias, but the muscle-growth effect was robust.
Mechanism
Soluble activin receptor type IIB decoy — sponges up myostatin.
Outcomes it's matched to
- STRENGTH72%
Safety
Vascular side effects (nosebleeds, gum bleeding) led to trial halts.
- Bleeding disorders
- Pregnancy
Legal context
Research use only. Clinical development discontinued.
