What Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc. does

In the company’s own words

Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: XENE) is a neuroscience-focused biopharmaceutical company engaged in discovering, developing and commercializing therapies for neurological and psychiatric disorders. Its pipeline is led by azetukalner, an investigational Kv7 potassium channel opener in Phase 3 studies for focal onset and primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, major depressive disorder and bipolar depression. The company’s early-stage programs include Kv7 potassium channel openers and Nav sodium channel modulators for pain, as well as a Nav1.1 program for Dravet syndrome. In 2025, it initiated Phase 1 studies of XEN1701, a Nav1.7 candidate, and XEN1120, a Kv7 candidate, for pain. Xenon also partners with Neurocrine Biosciences on sodium channel inhibitor programs for epilepsy; Neurocrine’s NBI-921355 entered Phase 1 in 2025. The company’s strategy includes advancing proprietary candidates and selectively collaborating to develop or commercialize products. Its development portfolio spans multiple Phase 3 programs, with azetukalner as its most advanced candidate.
