US clinical-stage pharma company Spruse Biosciences (Nasdaq: SPRB) announced disappointing top-line results from its CAHmelia-203 study of tildacerfont in adult classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and its CAHptain-205 study of tildacerfont in pediatric classic CAH, with the news sending the firm’s shares plunging a massive 76% to $1.25 in pre-market activity.
