BioXcel Therapeutics (Nasdaq: BTAI) announced a strategic shift, prioritizing late-stage clinical programs for BXCL501 in bipolar disorders, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease while deprioritizing sales efforts for its approved drug IGALMI™. The company has initiated the SERENITY At-Home pivotal Phase 3 trial for agitation in bipolar disorders or schizophrenia and submitted a protocol to the FDA for the TRANQUILITY In-Care pivotal Phase 3 trial for Alzheimer's dementia-related agitation. BioXcel will maintain IGALMI in the market without its current commercial infrastructure, focusing resources on developing BXCL501 for potential new markets. This strategic move aims to optimize resource allocation and advance the company's lead neuroscience asset into promising growth opportunities.
BioXcel Therapeutics (Nasdaq: BTAI) has initiated patient enrollment in its SERENITY At-Home pivotal Phase 3 trial. The study will evaluate the safety of BXCL501, an investigational orally dissolving film formulation of dexmedetomidine, for the acute treatment of agitation associated with bipolar disorders or schizophrenia in the at-home setting. The trial is expected to last 9-12 months and will enroll approximately 200 patients. Participants will self-administer 120 mcg of BXCL501 or placebo during agitation episodes over a 12-week period. The primary objective is safety, with an exploratory endpoint using a modified clinical global impression of change (mCGI-C) to evaluate patient and caregiver impressions. This trial addresses a significant unmet need, as there are currently no FDA-approved therapies for at-home treatment of agitation in these conditions.
