Rett Syndrome Behaviour Questionnaire (RSBQ) Total Score - Change From Baseline to Week 12
Baseline and Week 12

The RSBQ is a 45-item caregiver-completed rating scale that includes 45 items, 39 of them grouped into 8 subscales, whose ratings reflect the severity and frequency of symptoms. Items are rated as 0 (not true), 1 (somewhat or sometimes true), or 2 (very true). The 8 subscales are general mood, breathing problems, hand behavior, face movements, body rocking/expressionless face, night-time behaviors, fear/anxiety, and walking/standing. Scores for item 31 are reversed in the calculation of the total score. The total score ranges from 0 to 90 and is calculated as the sum of the item scores. Higher scores mean worse behaviour.

Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) Score at Week 12
12 Weeks Treatment Duration

To rate how much the subject's illness has improved or worsened relative to a baseline state, a 7-point scale is used from 1=very much improved, 2=much improved, 3=minimally improved, 4=no change, 5=minimally worse, 6=much worse, 7=very much worse.

Frequently asked questions about Trofinetide

What is Trofinetide used for?

Trofinetide is being developed for the treatment of Rett Syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder. It is an investigational small molecule studied in girls and women with Rett Syndrome. The clinical program includes two completed Phase 3 trials, and the drug has not been approved by the FDA.

How does Trofinetide work?

Trofinetide is a small molecule belonging to the -tide (peptide) class. Its target class is described as a peptide, and it was studied with biomarker selection in its clinical program. The specific molecular target is not further characterized in the available reference information.

Who is developing Trofinetide?

Trofinetide is being developed by ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc., which trades under the ticker ACAD. The company is the sponsor of the Phase 3 clinical program evaluating the drug in Rett Syndrome.

What phase is Trofinetide in?

Trofinetide is in Phase 3 development. Two Phase 3 trials have been completed, and no trials are currently active. The drug remains investigational and has not been approved by the FDA for any indication.

What clinical trials is Trofinetide in?

Trofinetide has been studied in two completed Phase 3 trials: NCT04181723, known as the LAVENDER trial, which enrolled 187 participants, and NCT04279314, an open-label extension study that enrolled 154 participants. Both trials enrolled girls and women with Rett Syndrome in the United States.

What were the design features of the Trofinetide trials?

Both Phase 3 trials of Trofinetide were randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled, with a total enrollment of 341 participants across the two studies. Participants were female, aged 5 years and older, and had Rett Syndrome. The trials were conducted in the United States.
