BELLUS has promoted BLU-5937 as also targeting refractory chronic cough, but with the specific design of reducing the likelihood of taste loss. On July 6, 2020, BELLUS announced the topline results for its Phase 2 RELIEF trial for BLU-5937. The trial failed to achieve its primary endpoint of a statistically significant reduction from baseline in awake coughs per hour at eight time points in the four doses tested. The drug was unable to outperform placebo. On this news, shares of BELLUS common stock plummeted over 70%, closing at just $3.40 per share on July 6, 2020.
