On October 19, Praxis Precision Medicines, Inc. rose 5.2% in Regular Trading, trading at $253.65 per share, with turnover of $28.85 million.
The move followed the company’s disclosure that the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to elsunersen for seizures associated with SCN2A developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by gain-of-function SCN2A variants.
According to the company’s latest update, elsunersen is an ASO therapy designed to selectively reduce SCN2A gene expression and directly target the disease mechanism in early-onset epileptic SCN2A-DEE. Prior disclosures also pointed to continued CNS pipeline progress, including a three-month review extension for relutrigine and clinical advancement for vormatrigine, reinforcing investor focus on the broader neurology portfolio.
