- Positive Sentiment: The FDA approved Pasatru (garetosmab-grts) to reduce new heterotopic ossification lesions and clinician-assessed flare-ups in adults with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). Approval was supported by the Phase 3 OPTIMA trial, which showed a 90% or greater reduction in new lesions at 56 weeks.
