ABOUT LONGBOARD PHARMACEUTICALS
Longboard Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel,
transformative medicines for neurological diseases. Longboard is
working to advance a portfolio of centrally acting product
candidates designed to be highly selective for specific G
protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Longboard’s small molecule
product candidates are based on more than 20 years of GPCR
research. Longboard plans to advance bexicaserin (LP352), an oral,
centrally acting 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C (5-HT2C) receptor
superagonist, with no observed impact on 5-HT2B and 5-HT2A receptor
subtypes, into a global Phase 3 program. The FDA has granted
Breakthrough Therapy designation for bexicaserin for the treatment
of seizures associated with Developmental and Epileptic
Encephalopathies (DEEs) for patients two years of age and older.
Earlier this year, Longboard reported positive topline data from a
Phase 1b/2a clinical trial (the PACIFIC Study) evaluating
bexicaserin in participants with DEEs. Longboard is also evaluating
LP659, an oral, centrally acting, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P)
receptor subtypes 1 and 5 modulator, which is in development for
the potential treatment of rare neuroinflammatory conditions.
Longboard recently completed a Phase 1 single-ascending dose (SAD)
clinical trial for LP659 in healthy volunteers.
Bexicaserin and LP659 are investigational compounds that are not
approved for marketing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) or any other regulatory authority.
