Today, we announced positive topline efficacy and safety data from the Phase 2b/3 LIDS trial of our oral small molecule, linsitinib, in patients with active, moderate to severe #ThyroidEyeDisease. The LIDS trial met its primary endpoint of proptosis reduction with statistical significance for the 150mg BID dose. Linsitinib was well-tolerated and consistent with the safety profile of the previous 15 linsitinib clinical trials. The safety profile was favorable particularly in IGF-1R areas of interest such as hearing impairment, glycemic changes, and menstrual cycle changes. No drug related hearing impairment, a 0% placebo adjusted tinnitus rate, and only one case of hyperglycemia that required no medical intervention was reported. Linsitinib is the only oral small molecule therapy to establish statistical and clinical significance in a #TED clinical trial. Read the full release: https://bit.ly/4jcZiwa
