01. Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events. On October 16, 2025, the Company announced positive topline results for the Phase 3 Essential3 program of ulixacaltamide in essential tremor ("ET"). About the Essential3 Program Trial Design The Essential3 Phase 3 program (NCT06087276) included two simultaneously enrolled studies utilizing a decentralized design conducted within the United States, where participants were allocated to the studies in a 2:1 blinded randomization (Study 1:Study 2). Study 1 was a double-blind, parallel design, placebo-controlled study that enrolled 473 patients randomized 1:1 to receive either ulixacaltamide or placebo for 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was the change from baseline in mADL11 at Week 8. Study 2 was a stable-responder randomized withdrawal study that enrolled 238 patients to receive ulixacaltamide for 8 weeks. Patients who improved by 3 points in the mADL11 from baseline were then randomized to receive either placebo or to continue receiving ulixacaltamide for an additional 4 weeks. The primary endpoint evaluated the proportion of patients who maintained response receiving ulixacaltamide versus placebo. There were two additional pre-specified hypotheses evaluating combinations of arms in Study 1 and Study 2 using the change in mADL11 at Week 8. Hypothesis 3 compared the ulixacaltamide arms of Study 1 and Study 2 with the placebo arm of Study 1, and Hypothesis 4 compared the ulixacaltamide arm of Study 2 with the placebo arm of Study 1. Key secondary endpoints in Studies 1 and 2 assessed the rate of disease improvement (slope of mADL11 change), the Patient Global Impression of change ("PGI-C") and Clinical Global Impression of severity ("CGI-S"). Summary of Essential3 Program Results Study 1: Placebo-controlled Parallel Group Study Topline Efficacy Results In Study 1, there was a statistically significant and clinically meaningful 4.3 point mean improvement in the mADL11 score at Week 8 (p<0.0001). The effect was sustained from Week 2 thro
