About Praxis Precision Medicines

Praxis Precision Medicines works on drug candidates for disorders of the central nervous system linked to imbalances in neuronal signaling, and has not yet brought a product to market. Its furthest-along programs are PRAX-114, a compound acting on the GABAA receptor being tested in mid-stage trials for major depressive disorder and perimenopausal depression, and PRAX-944, a T-type calcium channel inhibitor being studied for essential tremor. It is also testing PRAX-562 for pediatric epilepsy and adult headache conditions, and developing genetic-targeted therapies for SCN2A and KCNT1 forms of epilepsy.

Its pipeline is built in part through outside partnerships rather than solely in-house work. Praxis has a licensing and cooperation agreement with RogCon, a license with Purdue Neuroscience Company, a research and licensing collaboration with Ionis Pharmaceuticals, and a joint effort with The Florey Institute to develop additional antisense therapies.

The company was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts. Its shares are listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker PRAX.

Last earnings call, Aug 6, 2026 AI summary

What they said
Praxis has two NDAs under FDA review with approvals expected within six months: ulixacaltamide for essential tremor (PDUFA January 2027) and relutrigine for SCN2A/SCN8A developmental epileptic encephalopathy (PDUFA December 27, 2026). FDA mid-cycle communications confirmed no efficacy issues and no advisory committee meetings planned for either drug. Commercial infrastructure is fully built including field force, distribution networks, and patient support programs. EMERALD study enrolled ~200 patients across 50+ genetically defined epilepsies, targeting a supplemental NDA in 2027.
Guidance
Two product launches expected within six months pending FDA approval. Relutrigine approval would qualify for a pediatric review voucher. EMERALD data could support a supplemental NDA for broader DEE indications in 2027.
