CELEBRATION, Fla., Oct. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zevra Therapeutics, Inc. (NasdaqGS: ZVRA) (Zevra, or the Company), a rare disease therapeutics company, announced interim data from the open-label dose titration phase of the Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating KP1077 in patients with idiopathic hypersomnia (IH). The data provide valuable information on the primary endpoint of the trial, which is the safety and tolerability of KP1077 in patients with IH, as well as insights related to the effective dose range and regimen. Topline data from the completed trial are expected in the first half of 2024 after all patients have completed the double-blind withdrawal phase. The combined open-label interim and upcoming topline data are expected to also provide information related to a number of secondary and exploratory endpoints, including excessive daytime sleepiness, sleep inertia, and brain fog.

Key Points: 
  • Data generated to date indicate SDX is well-tolerated across all doses and both dosing regimens studied, laying the groundwork for future Phase 3 trial
