This study is a multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and tolerability of 3 doses of MRM-3379 in male participants with Fragile X Syndrome ages 16 to 45 (inclusive). In addition, a parallel cohort of participants ages 13 to \<16 will receive open-label MRM-3379. All participants will participate for 12 weeks of treatment. The study is also intended as a proof-of-concept investigation to evaluate whether MRM-3379 can improve FXS symptoms
Phase 2 trials begin testing efficacy in a larger patient group (100–300). This is often where biotech binary events occur — positive Phase 2 data can significantly advance a company's pipeline narrative, while failures can be terminal for a program.
Currently recruiting: the trial is enrolling patients. A data readout is not expected until after enrollment closes and the follow-up period is complete.
Mirum Pharmaceuticals (MIRM) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company D (36/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
