Frequently asked questions about EPX-100

What is EPX-100?

EPX-100 is an investigational small molecule developed by Harmony Biosciences Holdings, Inc. It is being studied in Phase 1 clinical trials in healthy adult participants, including a single and multiple ascending dose study and a drug-drug interaction study. Its target indications have not been disclosed.

Who makes EPX-100?

EPX-100 is developed by Harmony Biosciences Holdings, Inc., which trades under the ticker HRMY. The company is running the Phase 1 clinical program for the asset, including studies in healthy adult volunteers in the United States.

What phase is EPX-100 in?

EPX-100 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is investigational and is being evaluated in early-stage studies in healthy adult participants, including a recruiting single and multiple ascending dose study and a completed drug-drug interaction study.

What clinical trials is EPX-100 in?

EPX-100 has two Phase 1 trials. NCT07879170 is a recruiting single and multiple ascending dose study in healthy adults with planned enrollment of 88. NCT07824193 is a completed drug-drug interaction study in healthy participants with enrollment of 54. Both are in the United States.

Is EPX-100 the same as clemizole?

Yes, EPX-100 is also known as clemizole. The drug-drug interaction trial is listed under the name Clemizole (EPX-100), confirming that the two names refer to the same investigational small molecule in Harmony Biosciences' Phase 1 program.

What is the design of the EPX-100 trials?

Both EPX-100 trials are Phase 1 studies in healthy adult volunteers aged 18 and older in the United States. Together they plan to enroll 142 participants. The program includes randomized, double-blind, controlled designs, and one trial is currently active while the other is completed.
