Rapport Therapeutics (Nasdaq: RAPP) has announced two encore poster presentations at the 2025 American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Annual Meeting in San Diego from April 5-9, 2025. The presentations will focus on RAP-219, their clinical-stage AMPA receptor negative allosteric modulator in Phase 2 development for refractory focal epilepsy.
The first poster (#002) will present ROC analysis data showing that a 30% reduction in long episode frequency predicts a clinically meaningful reduction (≥50%) in clinical seizures. The second poster (#003) will demonstrate RAP-219's potent antiseizure effects in preclinical models, with maximal protection achieved at 70% receptor occupancy and 7 ng/mL mean plasma concentration.

Rapport Therapeutics (NASDAQ: RAPP) announced new Phase 1 data for RAP-219, its CNS disorder treatment candidate. The PET trial demonstrated that RAP-219 achieved and exceeded target receptor occupancy within five days while maintaining good tolerability. The MAD-2 trial showed favorable results with faster titration and higher exposures than the initial MAD trial.
Key findings from four Phase 1 trials involving 100 healthy volunteers showed RAP-219 was generally well-tolerated with no serious adverse events, no TEAEs greater than Grade 2, and only three treatment discontinuations (3%). The PET trial confirmed TARPγ8-containing AMPA receptors are enriched in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex, with minimal presence in the cerebellum and brain stem.
The company announced that Bradley Galer stepped down as chief medical officer, with a search for successor underway. A Phase 2a proof-of-concept trial for focal epilepsy is ongoing with topline results expected in mid-2025.
