Soleno has announced the opening of their first clinical trial site for a Phase 3 study of DCCR to measure the drug's efficacy for treating hyperphagia in PWS. That site is Seattle Children’s Hospital.
The phase 3 study will be a 15-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the diazoxide choline controlled-release tablet and will require a once-daily oral administration. The study seeks to enroll 105 patients with PWS ages 8 years and older at 10 to 15 sites around the country. Seattle Children’s Hospital is the first of these sites, with the additional sites expected to open soon.
Additional information on this study is available at clinicaltrials.gov.
