What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug SRX246 works to treat irritability, agitation, aggression and self-injury (IAAS) behaviors in adult males with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS). It will also learn about the safety of drug SRX246. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does drug SRX246 lower the number of times participants experience IAAS behaviors?

* What medical problems do participants have when taking drug SRX246? Researchers will compare drug SRX246 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if drug SRX246 works to treat IAAS behaviors.

Participants will:

* Take drug SRX246 or a placebo every day for up to 8 months

* Have weekly checkups by phone or video to answer study questions

* Have periodically scheduled home visits by nurses to conduct medical check-ups and tests

* Keep a diary of their symptoms
