The PDUFA target action date was August 23, 2026; the FDA granted accelerated approval on August 19 and Ultragenyx announced it after the market close that day. GENGLYCOS is the first FDA-approved treatment designed to treat the underlying cause of GSDIa, and Ultragenyx's first approved gene therapy. It is a single intravenous AAV8 gene therapy delivering G6Pase expression under the native promoter; patients in clinical studies reduced their reliance on round-the-clock cornstarch dosing. As a condition of accelerated approval, Ultragenyx will provide two years of safety and efficacy data from open-label commercial treatment of 50 patients and 20 control patients. The BLA held Priority Review, and the approval earned Ultragenyx a rare pediatric disease Priority Review Voucher.
