Clinical Data from Open-Label DAFFODIL™ Study Evaluating Long-term Safety of DAYBUE® (trofinetide) in Patients with Rett Syndrome Published in Med

— Results consistent with Phase 3 LAVENDER™ and open-label LILAC™ studies
Excerpt from the Press Release:
SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Acadia Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: ACAD) today announced that the journal Medpublished results from the open-label study, DAFFODIL™, evaluating the safety, tolerability and exploratory efficacy of DAYBUE® (trofinetide) in girls ages two to four living with Rett syndrome (n = 15). The long-term Phase 2/3 study demonstrated DAYBUE had a similar safety profile in children two to four years of age as that observed in individuals with Rett syndrome five years of age and older in the 12-week LAVENDER™ study, and the 40-week LILAC-1™ and 32-month LILAC-2™ open-label extension studies. Results of all four studies supported the FDA approval of DAYBUE in adults and pediatric patients two years of age or older.
“Rett syndrome is a debilitating condition that often causes patients to lose acquired communication and motor skills starting as early as six to 18 months old which presents significant challenges for these children and their families,” said Alan Percy, M.D., Professor of Pediatrics, Neurology, Neurobiology, Genetics, and Psychology at University of Alabama, Birmingham and lead DAFFODIL author. “Outcomes from DAFFODIL further underscore trofinetide’s safety and tolerability across patient age groups and provide additional data to inform treatment plans and dosing for patients closer to the onset of symptoms.”
“The final DAFFODIL results provide critical insights into the safety and tolerability of DAYBUE in younger pediatric Rett syndrome patients, including effective strategies to mitigate common side effects of treatment,” said Ponni Subbiah, M.D., M.P.H., Acadia’s Senior Vice President, Global Head of Medical Affairs and Chief Medical Officer. “These findings, along with the caregiver exit interview feedback from the study, further our understanding of trofinetide’s role in managing this complex condition and the potential benefits of longer-term treatment.”
