Axovant Sciences(AXON) is the main event in biotech’s September cavalcade of clinical trial readouts, but while we wait, it’s a good idea to prep for important — and stock-moving — data releases from Zogenix(ZGNX) and Amicus Therapeutics(FOLD).

Zogenix’s lead drug, called ZX008, is a low-dose liquid formulation of the old serotonin booster fenfluramine. The company is developing ZX008 to treat children with Dravet syndrome, a rare and severe type of epilepsy.

You might remember fenfluramine as part of the “fen-phen” obesity regimen that was pulled from the market in 1997 because fenfluramine (at a higher dose) caused severe damage to people’s heart valves.
