A Randomized, Double-Blind, Controlled, Parallel Group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of FLX-787-ODT for Treatment of Muscle Cramps in Adult Subjects With Motor Neuron Disease

The COMMEND Study will assess the safety and effectiveness of FLX-787 in men and women with
Motor Neuron Disease [including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Primary Lateral
Sclerosis (PLS) or Progressive Muscular Atrophy (PMA)] experiencing muscle cramps.
Participants will be asked to take two study products during the course of the study. One of
these study products will be a placebo.

Approximately 120 participants in approximately 30 study centers across the United States are
expected to take part. Participants will be in the study for approximately 3 months and visit
the study clinic 3 times.

Sclerosis (ALS), Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS) or Progressive Muscular Atrophy
(PMA)]

- Weekly muscle cramping (defined as: a sustained muscle contraction that's most often
painful and lasts seconds to minutes)

Exclusion Criteria:

- Presence of major gastrointestinal disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease,
diverticulitis, active peptic ulcer disease, or significant gastroesophageal reflux
disease (i.e., not well-controlled on antacids or proton pump inhibitors), or oral or
esophageal lesions/ulcers

- Presence of laryngospasm or significant swallowing problems

- Presence of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy, esophagogastroduodenoscopy, or G-tube

- Unable or unwilling to discontinue medications for cramps and/or opiates
