(Nasdaq: ACAD) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved DAYBUE<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> STIX (trofinetide) for oral solution, a dye- and preservative-free powder formulation of trofinetide for the treatment of Rett syndrome in adult and pediatric patients two years of age and older. The new formulation is expected to deliver the same efficacy and safety profile of DAYBUE oral solution, while offering children and adults living with Rett syndrome new flexibility and choice regarding the dose volume and taste of their DAYBUE treatment.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"news-body-cta\">This press release features multimedia.

We know that this kind of adaptability is something many Rett families have been seeking.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe efficacy and safety of DAYBUE STIX is based on the results of the LAVENDER\u2122 study with DAYBUE oral solution in patients with Rett syndrome. The approval of this new formulation was informed by the results of a bioequivalence study, which demonstrated that both original DAYBUE oral solution and the new DAYBUE STIX for oral solution powder formulation provide comparable exposure. This confirmed bioequivalence means patients can expect the same efficacy and safety established by the oral solution formulation when using DAYBUE STIX.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDAYBUE STIX will be available on a limited basis starting in the first quarter of 2026 and more broadly early in the second quarter of 2026. The current oral solution formulation will remain available.\n<\/p>\n<p><i>About Rett Syndrome<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\nRett syndrome is a rare, complex, neurodevelopmental disorder that may occur over four stages and occurs in approximately one of every 10,000 to 15,000 female births worldwide.<sup>1-3<\/sup> In the U.S., 6,000 to 9,000 patients are affected.<sup>4<\/sup> A child with Rett syndrome exhibits an early period of apparently normal development until six to 18 months, when their skills seem to slow down or stagnate. This is typically followed by a duration of regression when the child loses acquired communication skills and purposeful hand use. The child may then experience a plateau period in which they show mild recovery in cognitive interests, but body movements remain severely diminished. As they age, those living with Rett may continue to experience a stage of motor deterioration which can last the rest of the patient\u2019s life.<sup>2<\/sup> Rett syndrome is typically caused by a genetic mutation on the <i>MECP2<\/i> gene.<sup>5<\/sup> In preclinical studies, deficiency in MeCP2 function is thought to lead to impairment in synaptic communication, and the deficits in synaptic function may be associated with Rett manifestations.<sup>5-7<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>\nSymptoms of Rett syndrome may also include development of hand stereotypies, such as hand wringing and clapping, and gait abnormalities.<sup>8<\/sup> Most Rett patients typically live into adulthood and require round-the-clock care.<sup>1,9<\/sup><\/p>\n<p><i>About DAYBUE<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> (trofinetide) and DAYBUE<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> STIX (trofinetide)<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\nTrofinetide is a synthetic analog of the N-terminal tripeptide of insulin-like growth factor 1. The mechanism by which trofinetide exerts therapeutic effects in patients with Rett syndrome is unknown. In animal studies, trofinetide has been shown to increase branching of dendrites and synaptic plasticity signals.<sup>10<\/sup><\/p>\n<p><b>Indication and Important Safety Information for DAYBUE<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> (trofinetide) and DAYBUE<sup>\u00ae <\/sup>STIX (trofinetide)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Indication<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nDAYBUE and DAYBUE STIX are indicated for the treatment of Rett syndrome in adults and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Important Safety Information<\/b><\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Warnings and Precautions<\/b>\n<ul class=\"bwlistcircle\">\n<li><b>Diarrhea:<\/b> In a 12-week study and in long-term studies, 85% of patients treated with DAYBUE experienced diarrhea. In those treated with DAYBUE, 49% either had persistent diarrhea or recurrence after resolution despite dose interruptions, reductions, or concomitant antidiarrheal therapy. Diarrhea severity was mild or moderate in 96% of cases. In the 12-week study, antidiarrheal medication was used in 51% of patients treated with DAYBUE.<br \/>\n<br \/>Advise patients to stop laxatives before starting DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX. If diarrhea occurs, patients should notify their healthcare provider, consider starting antidiarrheal treatment, and monitor hydration status and increase oral fluids, if needed. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if severe diarrhea occurs or if dehydration is suspected.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Vomiting: <\/b>In a 12-week study, vomiting occurred in 29% of patients treated with DAYBUE and in 12% of patients who received placebo<i>.<br \/>\n<br \/><\/i>Patients with Rett syndrome are at risk for aspiration and aspiration pneumonia. Aspiration and aspiration pneumonia have been reported following vomiting in patients being treated with DAYBUE. Interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if vomiting is severe or occurs despite medical management.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Weight Loss: <\/b>In the 12-week study, 12% of patients treated with DAYBUE experienced weight loss of greater than 7% from baseline, compared to 4% of patients who received placebo. In long-term studies, 2.2% of patients discontinued treatment with DAYBUE due to weight loss. Monitor weight and interrupt, reduce dose, or discontinue DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX if significant weight loss occurs.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Adverse Reactions:<\/b> The common adverse reactions (\u22655% for DAYBUE-treated patients and at least 2% greater than in placebo) reported in the 12-week study were diarrhea (82% vs 20%), vomiting (29% vs 12%), fever (9% vs 4%), seizure (9% vs 6%), anxiety (8% vs 1%), decreased appetite (8% vs 2%), fatigue (8% vs 2%), and nasopharyngitis (5% vs 1%).\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Drug Interactions: Effect of DAYBUE and DAYBUE STIX on other Drugs<\/b>\n<ul class=\"bwlistcircle\">\n<li>\nTrofinetide, a weak inhibitor of CYP3A and an inhibitor of P-gp, can increase the plasma concentrations of CYP3A and\/or P-gp substrates (e.g., loperamide), which may increase the risk of adverse reactions associated with these substrates<i>.<br \/>\n<br \/><\/i>Closely monitor patients when DAYBUE or DAYBUE STIX is administered concomitantly with sensitive CYP3A and\/or P-gp substrates for which a minimal increase in substrate plasma concentration (i.e., drugs with a narrow therapeutic index) may lead to serious adverse reactions.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Use in Specific Population: Renal Impairment<\/b>\n<ul class=\"bwlistcircle\">\n<li>\nDAYBUE and DAYBUE STIX are not recommended for patients with severe renal impairment.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\nDAYBUE is available as an oral solution (200 mg\/mL).\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDAYBUE STIX for oral solution powder is available in 5,000 mg, 6,000 mg, and 8,000 mg packets.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nPlease read the full <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Facadia.com%2Fen-us%2Fpdf%2Four-medicines%2Fdaybue-prescribing-information.pdf&amp;esheet=54375033&amp;newsitemid=20251211720018&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Prescribing+Information&amp;index=1&amp;md5=979077a11d0fb10db8ac8b9007ee6ba9\">Prescribing Information<\/a> also available at <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fdaybuehcp.com%2F&amp;esheet=54375033&amp;newsitemid=20251211720018&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=DAYBUEhcp.com&amp;index=2&amp;md5=4c44a28f6bf7efee1840322396620bf0\">DAYBUEhcp.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p><i>About Acadia Pharmaceuticals<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\nAcadia is committed to turning scientific promise into meaningful innovation that makes the difference for underserved neurological and rare disease communities around the world.
