On July 24, 2024, Sage announced that it will no longer advance its oral experimental therapy SAGE-324 for essential tremor following a failure in a mid-stage trial. Citing topline data from its KINETIC 2 Phase 2 trial, Sage said SAGE-324 didn't generate statistically significant results for the primary endpoint from baseline to Day 91. Additionally, there were no statistically significant differences between SAGE-324 doses and placebo over the same period for the primary endpoint, which took into account a clinical metric designed to measure tremor in the upper limb. As for the drug's tolerability, Sage said there was a relationship between SAGE-324 and treatment-emergent adverse events (“TEAEs”) related to the central nervous system as well as TEAE frequency.
On this news, Sage’s stock price fell $2.70 per share, or 20.64%, to close at $10. 38 per share on July 24, 2024.
