MapLight Therapeutics is recruiting patients for IRIS, a Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating ML-004, the company’s lead clinical compound for patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The study will assess whether there is an impact of ML-004 treatment on the core social communication deficits and on the associated features of irritability in ASD. 

The randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of ML-004 in up to 150 adults and adolescents with ASD. The study will be conducted in the United States, Australia, and Canada, and is fully funded by MapLight.
