ZX008 Development Update
Recent FDA correspondence (Type C meeting) clarified requirements for
ZX008 IND and Phase 3 program
Exhibit 99.1


CMC and Non-Clinical Aspects
CMC
Drug substance synthetic pathway, starting material and validation strategy
confirmed
General agreement with drug substance and drug product specification
attributes
Phase 3 supplies: drug substance manufactured; liquid oral formulation
manufactured and on stability
Non-clinical
IND to initiate Phase 3 studies requires histopathology data (particularly on
heart valves) from the recently completed juvenile toxicology dose-range
finding study
Data complete and clean; full report in July
IND submission on track for end of August
FDA confirmed reproductive and developmental toxicity and carcinogenicity
studies can be conducted as post-marketing commitments
2


Clinical and Regulatory Aspects
Clinical
FDA agreed that Zogenix’s proposal of two double-blind, randomized,
controlled Phase 3 studies plus one long-term, open label extension study
should be sufficient to support registration, pending review of study
outcomes
FDA favored a fixed, multiple-dose, parallel arm, placebo-controlled design
Dosing in mg/kg will provide similar exposures across age/weight range
Regulatory
Confirmed 505(b)(2) NDA submission is acceptable
Fast Track Designation application encouraged once IND is active
