GlobalData tracks drug-specific phase transition and likelihood of approval scores, in addition to indication benchmarks based off 18 years of historical drug development data. Attributes of the drug, company and its clinical trials play a fundamental role in drug-specific PTSR and likelihood of approval.

Cenobamate overview

Cenobamate (Xcopri / Ontozry) is an anti-epileptic agent. It is formulated as tablets and film coated tablets for oral route of administration. Xcopri is indicated to treat partial-onset seizures in adults 18 years of age and older and hepatic impairment. Ontozry is indicated for the adjunctive treatment of focal-onset seizures with or without secondary generalization in adult patients with epilepsy who have not been adequately controlled despite a history of treatment with at least 2 anti-epileptic medicinal products. It is also under development for the treatment of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome in pediatrics.

Cenobamate (YKP-3089) is under development for the treatment of partial seizures, simple partial seizure, complex partial seizure, generalized seizure and tonic-clonic seizures. It is a next-generation carbamate. The drug candidate is administered through the oral route in the form of the capsule and tablets. It acts as an anxiolytic well as an anti-epileptic drug compound. The drug candidate is a sodium channel blocke and positive allosteric GABAA modulator. It was also under development for the treatment of anxiety, neuropathic pain and bipolar disorders
