Eliem Therapeutics Shares Fall On Lower Back Pain Trial Setback

  • Eliem Therapeutics Inc ELYM has reported results from its Phase 2a trial investigating ETX-810 for lumbosacral radicular pain (LSRP).
  • In the study, ETX-810 did not achieve statistically significant separation from placebo on the trial's primary endpoint, which assessed the change from baseline to week 4 in the weekly average of the daily pain score.

  • This result is consistent with the lack of separation from placebo observed in the Phase 2a clinical trial in diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain, as reported in April
  • Therefore, the company has elected to discontinue further development of ETX-810.
  • The company recently updated that its capital is sufficient to fund key pipeline catalysts and operations until mid-2024
  • With the discontinuation of ETX-810, the company anticipates that its cash runway will extend beyond that time.
  • Price Action: ELYM shares are down 33.90% at $2.01 during the premarket session on the last check Tuesday.
