XEN901 targets the Nav1.6 sodium channel. Nav1.6 is a voltage-gated sodium channel subtype that plays a key role in neuronal excitability. By targeting Nav1.6, XEN901 is designed to modulate sodium channel activity, though its exact clinical applications are still under investigation.

Who is developing XEN901?

XEN901 is being developed by Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol XENE. Xenon focuses on developing therapies for neurological disorders, and XEN901 is part of its pipeline of sodium channel targeting compounds.

What phase is XEN901 in?

XEN901 has completed a Phase 1 clinical trial. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA or any other regulatory agency. Further clinical development may be ongoing or planned, but no later-phase trials have been registered.

What clinical trials is XEN901 in?

XEN901 has been evaluated in one completed Phase 1 clinical trial, NCT03467100. This trial was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of single and multiple ascending oral doses of XEN901 in 70 healthy volunteers in the United Kingdom. It assessed safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics.
