SAN DIEGO, Sept. 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crinetics Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: CRNX) today announced that Monica R. Gadelha, MD, PhD, professor of endocrinology at the Medical School of the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro and a principal investigator in the Phase 2 ACROBAT program, presented new data from the planned two-year interim analysis of the ACROBAT Advance open label extension (OLE) study at the 35th Brazilian Congress of Endocrinology and Metabolism (CBEM).
- This preliminary data, combined with the preference participants had for oral paltusotine over the injected standard-of-care, speaks to the potential paltusotine may have as a long-term therapy for acromegaly.
- Dr. Gadelha will present an additional poster of the Advance OLE data at the European Neuroendocrine Association (ENEA) meeting.
- That presentation, titled Long-Term Treatment with Oral Paltusotine for Acromegaly: Results from the ACROBAT Advance study will be made on September 9th.
- In Phase 2 trials, paltusotine maintained IGF-1 levels in acromegaly patients who switched from injectable depot medications to once-daily paltusotine.
