“Xenon’s leadership in the Kv7 landscape is unmatched as our lead molecule, azetukalner, represents the only highly potent, selective Kv7 potassium channel opener in development for multiple indications that is backed by long-term efficacy and safety data with over 600-patient years of exposure in patients living with epilepsy. Importantly, we generated highly compelling double-blind efficacy data that we believe demonstrates the best placebo-adjusted results in focal onset seizure patients, and excitement around azetukalner is building as we continue to progress toward the X-TOLE2 topline data readout expected in the second half of 2025,” stated Ian Mortimer, President and Chief Executive Officer of Xenon. “Within the X-TOLE open-label extension study, we are seeing patients – some who have been on azetukalner for more than 5 years – experience the long-term benefits of seizure freedom and improved quality of life, as well as a favorable tolerability profile and we are excited to present new 36-month data at the American Epilepsy Society annual meeting next month.”
