Lexicon Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: LXRX) will present patient-reported data on diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) at the ASPN 2025 conference in Miami Beach, Florida. The presentation focuses on patient experiences with DPNP, a debilitating chronic complication affecting approximately 9 million patients in the U.S.

The research highlights that DPNP impacts 30% of type 1 diabetes patients and 50% of type 2 diabetes patients, causing symptoms like burning pain and numbness in extremities. The study aims to inform the development of pilavapadin, Lexicon's investigational non-opioid treatment for DPNP, and raise awareness among healthcare professionals about patient burden.

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals (LXRX) presented post-hoc analysis data at the ADA's 85th Scientific Sessions showing that sotagliflozin, when added to insulin therapy, reduces hypoglycemic events in Type 1 diabetes patients. The analysis, based on inTandem 1 and 2 Phase 3 trials data, demonstrated that sotagliflozin treatment resulted in lower hypoglycemia rates compared to placebo, particularly in patients with blood glucose ≤55 mg/dL. The effect was consistent across different kidney function groups. This finding is significant as hypoglycemia accounts for 5% of T1D hospitalizations and up to 10% of T1D deaths, with chronic kidney disease affecting 20-40% of T1D patients being a major risk factor.

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals (LXRX) will present clinical data at the 85th ADA Scientific Sessions on June 20-23, 2025, in Chicago. The presentation focuses on sotagliflozin's ability to reduce hypoglycemic events in type 1 diabetes patients across different kidney function levels, categorized by eGFR ranges. Dr. M. Belinda Hardin will deliver an oral presentation on June 22 discussing these findings. Additionally, Lexicon will present topline results from their PROGRESS Phase 2b study of pilavapadin (LX9211), evaluating its effectiveness in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain. The presentations align with ADA's 2025 Standards of Care emphasis on preventing hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes management.

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: LXRX) announced its upcoming participation in the 2025 Jefferies Global Healthcare Conference.

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.

Net loss improved to $25.3 million ($0.07 per share) from $48.4 million in Q1 2024. The company ended Q1 with $194.8 million in cash and investments. Lexicon is advancing multiple pipeline programs, including sotagliflozin for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in the SONATA-HCM Phase 3 study.
