Lexicon Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: LXRX) presented the design of its SONATA-HCM Phase 3 clinical trial at Heart Failure 2025, evaluating sotagliflozin for both obstructive and non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The study is actively enrolling 500 patients across 20 countries, with all sites expected to be operational by September 2025.

The trial aims to assess sotagliflozin's efficacy on symptoms, function, and patient-reported outcomes in HCM patients. The primary endpoint measures symptom improvement using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire at week 26. Recent evidence published in The Lancet (February 2025) suggests sotagliflozin's dual SGLT1 and SGLT2 inhibition reduces major adverse cardiovascular events.

If successful, the study could support a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) for sotagliflozin in both HCM types, addressing a significant unmet need, particularly for non-obstructive HCM where no approved therapies exist.

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals (LXRX) has entered into an exclusive worldwide license agreement with Novo Nordisk for LX9851, a first-in-class oral non-incretin drug candidate targeting obesity and metabolic disorders. The deal includes potential payments of up to $1 billion, with $75 million in upfront and near-term milestone payments.
