Clinical Trial Protocol Description:

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of an oral administration of NNZ-2566 in adolescent and adult males and to determine its drug properties, such as how it is absorbed and broken down in the body. The study will also explore if NNZ-2566 helps to reduce interfering symptoms of fragile X syndrome. Nationally, 72 subjects are expected to enroll in this study. At Rush University Medical Center, we expect to recruit approximately 14 patients. The treatment will be assigned randomly.
