Shipments will halt by close of business Tuesday evening, the company said. Sarepta had initially rejected the agency’s request, which was issued Friday.

As gene therapy maker Sarepta Therapeutics tangles with FDA over its Duchenne treatment, patients and their families are caught in the middle.

The company refused the FDA’s request and will continue shipping its therapy, Elevidys, to Duchenne patients who can still walk. A pause on shipments to older, non-ambulatory patients remains in place.
