Message : Required fields NEEDHAM, Mass., May 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chiasma, Inc. (NASDAQ: CHMA), (“Chiasma” or the “Company”) today presented patient-reported outcomes (PROs) data from its MPOWERED™ Phase 3 trial demonstrating that study patients with acromegaly reported significantly improved quality of life and work productivity after transitioning from long-acting injectable somatostatin analogs (iSSAs) to MYCAPSSA ®. The data were shared as an oral presentation at the 30 th Annual American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) Meeting being held virtually from May 26-29, 2021. “The encouraging PROs data from the MPOWERED study further our understanding of the potential positive clinical impact that MYCAPSSA has for patients with acromegaly,” said Nienke Biermasz, M.D., Ph.D., Presenting Author. “These PROs provide important information to help physicians assess disease and treatment burden for patients treated with iSSAs and may provide the confidence in MYCAPSSA as a treatment option that can be taken at home and also avoid some of the injection-related issues impacting quality of life and work productivity.”
