Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZYNE), the leader in innovative pharmaceutically-produced transdermal cannabinoid therapies for rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, today provided program updates for Fragile X syndrome (FXS), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q) and developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE). In addition to the continued clinical development of Zygel in FXS, the Company plans to focus on the development of Zygel in ASD and 22q. Based on Company research and strategic prioritization, the decision has been made to not move forward in DEE at this time.
“Committing to a Phase 3 development program for patients with autism spectrum disorder is a key step in the advancement of a new treatment option for patients who have high unmet medical needs and limited FDA approved treatment options,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zynerba. “Data from our ASD clinical development program to date are compelling and, with a clear regulatory path toward potential approval, we are excited to move forward with this program.”
Anido added, “In addition, we are making good progress towards completing enrollment in the INSPIRE trial for patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and expect to have topline results mid-year 2022. Putting resources behind a second indication beyond FXS and completing the INSPIRE trial is consistent with our mission of being a leader in rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, including FXS, ASD and 22q.”
Pipeline Updates
Zygel in Fragile X Syndrome (FXS)
Zygel in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Zygel in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q)
Zygel in Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathies (DEE)
Financial Outlook
As a result of the pipeline update and anticipated additional clinical studies in ASD, management now believes the Company’s $75.6 million of cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021 are sufficient to fund operations and capital requirements into the second half of 2023.
