KITE-PWS is currently recruiting for their clinical trial that is seeking people aged 17 years and older with excessive hunger caused by PWS to participate. The experimental study drug, called RGH-706, helps to block melanin- concentrating hormone (MCH), which is thought to play a key part in the brain’s food seeking mechanism.

The study lasts 5-6 months and requires about 8 study visits.

Medical history and other criteria will also be reviewed to determine eligibility.

Your participation could help others with PWS in the future.
