Glycemic Impact of Long Term Use of Diazoxide Choline Controlled-Release Tablets in Patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome or with Very High Triglycerides

Kimonis Virginia , Gold JA , Charlton RW , Cowen Neil , Miller JL

DCCR is a once daily tablet formulation of the choline salt of diazoxide, a KATP channel agonist. DCCR is being developed for the treatment of hyperphagia in Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), the most common genetic cause of life-threatening obesity. In a phase 2 study, DCCR treatment resulted in significant reductions of hyperphagia and aggressive behaviors. Diazoxide increases glucose by decreasing beta-cell insulin secretion in hyperinsulinemic conditions. However, ot...

Background: Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic neurobehavioral-metabolic disorder characterized by hyperphagia and behavioral/psychological complications. With no approved therapies to treat hyperphagia, disease management requires strict dietary and environmental controls to restrict access to food. DCCR is an oral, once-daily medication currently under development for the treatment of PWS.Objective: The obje...
