Lexicon Pharmaceuticals Advances Pilavapadin to Phase 3 Trials for Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Pain Following Positive Phase 2 Data

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals Inc. has presented additional clinical data and program updates from its Phase 2 pilavapadin program for diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (DPNP) at the 19th Annual Pain Therapeutics Summit. The newly released results follow topline data from the Phase 2b PROGRESS study announced earlier in 2025, which identified the 10 mg once daily dose as the most clinically meaningful and appropriate for further development. Analyses from the Phase 2 program demonstrated a linear relationship between pilavapadin plasma levels and pain reduction, a 2-point reduction in average daily pain score at 12 weeks, and an acceptable safety and tolerability profile. Lexicon has submitted an end-of-Phase 2 meeting request to the U.S. FDA, which has been accepted, and the company is currently in discussions with potential partners. The slide presentation is available on the company's website.
