About Neuren Pharmaceuticals Ltd
Neuren Pharmaceuticals Limited (ASX: NEU) is a biopharmaceutical company specialising in developing new therapies for neurodevelopmental disorders that emerge in early childhood and are characterised by impaired connections and signalling between brain cells.
In March 2023, the US Food and Drug Administration approved DAYBUE™ (trofinetide) for the treatment of Rett syndrome in adults and children two years and older. Neuren's US partner Acadia Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ACAD) holds a worldwide exclusive licence from Neuren for trofinetide. At this time, DAYBUE is the first and only drug approved for the treatment of Rett syndrome. Trofinetide has also demonstrated clinical benefit in a Phase 2 trial in treating Fragile X syndrome.
Neuren's second product NNZ-2591 is currently in Phase 2 clinical trials for the treatment of Phelan-McDermid syndrome, Angelman syndrome, Pitt Hopkins syndrome, and Prader-Willi syndrome. The drug candidate has shown positive effects in mouse models of each syndrome and was successful in a Phase 1 clinical trial. The number of patients across these four disorders is estimated as five times the number of Rett syndrome patients. There are currently no drugs approved for these conditions, apart from growth hormone to treat some aspects of Prader-Willi.
Acadia Pharmaceuticals also holds a worldwide exclusive licence to develop and commercialise NNZ-2591 for Rett syndrome and Fragile X syndrome. Neuren retains worldwide rights to NNZ-2591 in all other indications.
