ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc. (ACAD) Discusses Top-Line Phase II Results From RADIANT Study of Remlifanserin in Alzheimer's Disease Psychosis Transcript
Acadia Pharmaceuticals (ACAD) reported phase 2/3 results for remlifanserin in Alzheimer's disease psychosis, with the high dose missing statistical significance but showing positive efficacy trends. Remlifanserin's safety profile was clean, but the effect size on the primary endpoint was low, raising concerns about clinical utility and replicability in phase 3. I am now even less optimistic about remlifanserin's phase 3 success, lowering my probability of success to 25% due to efficacy and trial design concerns.
Shares of Acadia Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:ACAD) fell more than 9% Thursday morning after the company reported mixed Phase 2 results for remlifanserin, its experimental treatment for Alzheimer's disease psychosis. The once-daily 60 mg dose eased hallucinations and delusions more than placebo on the trial's main measure, but the result fell just short of statistical significance at six weeks.
ACADIA Pharmaceuticals NASDAQ: ACAD reported top-line results from the phase II portion of its RADIANT clinical program evaluating remlifanserin for hallucinations and delusions associated with Alzheimer's disease psychosis, or ADP. The company said the 60 mg once-daily dose narrowly missed statistical significance on the primary endpoint but showed nominal statistical significance on a key secondary endpoint, while demonstrating a safety and tolerability profile comparable with placebo.
