Bitopertin Regulatory Update Complete Response Letter (CRL) received on February 13, 2026 Type C Meeting EOP2 Meeting September 2024 December 2024 Pre-NDA Meeting June 2025 NDA Submitted September 2025 Awarded CNPV October 2025 NDA Accepted CRL Received November 2025 February 2026 Bitopertin received a Complete Response Letter from the FDA Main objection related to the sufficiency of protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) as a surrogate biomarker, with the FDA requesting to see the outcome of the ongoing APOLLO study before making a decision Disc is committed to delivering bitopertin to patients and will focus on diligently completing the APOLLO study by Q4 2026 and responding to the FDA

CRL Details Accelerated approval relies on (1) whether there is evidence of an effect on the proposed surrogate endpoint (% change in whole blood metal-free PPIX) and (2) whether the proposed surrogate endpoint, including the magnitude of change, is reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit AURORA and BEACON provided sufficient evidence that bitopertin significantly lowers whole blood metal-free PPIX Based on review of AURORA and BEACON results, FDA concluded that the trials did not show evidence of association between percent change in PPIX and sunlight exposure-based endpoints, as measured in the trials, despite the strong mechanistic and biological plausibility supporting the use of the PPIX biomarker in protoporphyria FDA guided that for this application to be approved, Disc will need to provide additional evidence demonstrating the efficacy of bitopertin for the treatment of protoporphyria based on clinical endpoint(s) Stated willingness to discuss options to meet this requirement, including completion and submission of results from the ongoing APOLLO trial Other requests: FDA requested that Disc provide a standard safety update as part of the resubmission Disc will provide the new APOLLO safety data in the CRL response, which will be integrated with the prior safety database of over 4,000 subjects FDA indicated a need to see the results of the ongoing Phase 3 APOLLO study before making a decision

Phase 2 AURORA Data CONFIDENTIAL Demonstrated reductions in PPIX and improvements in clinical metrics Placebo Bitopertin 60 mg Phototoxic Reactions = Phototoxic Reaction = 2 Phototoxic Reactions Light Tolerance Measure (Mean ± SD) Tertile 1 (-89% to -38%) Tertile 2 (-38% to -7%) Tertile 3 (-7% to 190%) Cumulative total time in sunlight without pain (hr) 161.1 ± 142.6 124.5 ± 68.3 117.5 ± 83.2 Average time in sunlight without pain (hr) 1.61 ± 1.32 1.20 ± 0.72 1.16 ± 0.83 Change from baseline in time to prodrome (min) 117.4 ± 148.6 109.4 ± 121.1 64.1 ± 123.8 PPIX Increased PPIX Decreased Tertiles of PPIX Change Treatment with bitopertin led to a 49% reduction in whole blood PPIX and 63% reduction in plasma PPIX vs placebo at month 4 PPIX reductions with bitopertin are similar to those seen in pregnant EPP patients and a photoinactivation study in which 30-50% reductions in PPIX led to marked improvements in light tolerance

APOLLO Trial Overview Closing enrollment in March; topline data expected Q4 2026 N Size ~150 patients across sites in the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia Trial Duration 6-month treatment period; Expected to fully enroll by March 2026 Trial Design Randomized 1:1, double-blind, placebo-controlled Trial Population EPP and XLP patients ages 12+, stratified by baseline light tolerance and geography Dose 60 mg Co-primary Efficacy Endpoints Average monthly total time in sunlight without pain between 10:00 and 18:00 during the last month of the 6-month treatment period Percent change from baseline in whole blood metal-free PPIX after 6 months of treatment Additional Endpoints Occurrence of phototoxic reactions Cumulative total pain-free time in sunlight Change from baseline in time to prodrome Patient global impression of change (PGIC) Safety and tolerability Robust Endpoint Longitudinal analysis leverages robust model that demonstrated significance in AURORA Accounts for time-dependent PPIX lowering effects with bitopertin and for waning of a placebo effect Focuses efficacy on month 6, after PPIX is fully reduced and potential placebo effect is expected to have waned Robust Study Design Rigorous evaluation of baseline light tolerance required during screening and factored into analysis of the primary endpoint Stratification by geography to minimize confounding factors affecting light exposure across study arms Well-powered; blinded sample size recalculation completed in January 2026 with no change required

AURORA: Sunlight Tolerance Over Time† AURORA: PPIX Over Time Robust Endpoints Provide Confidence in APOLLO Co-primary Endpoints: Average Monthly Time in Light without Pain and PPIX Change from Baseline 2-Week Aggregated Time (hr) = last month of study = last 2-weeks of study p=0.013 vs PBO* p=0.03 vs PBO* † Post-hoc longitudinal analysis adjusted for baseline * nominal p value +8.1% -21.5% (p=0.004 vs PBO) -41.7% (p<0.001 vs PBO) Longitudinal analysis demonstrated significance and was robust in AURORA Accounts for time-dependent PPIX lowering effects with bitopertin and for waning of a placebo effect Prespecified primary endpoint with consistent, high statistical significance in BEACON and AURORA Recommended as co-primary by FDA, reflecting agency’s acknowledgement of the importance of lowering PPIX in EPP

Next Steps Disc plans to respond to the CRL with data from the ongoing APOLLO trial Expect to request Type A meeting with FDA to review our approach for resubmission Expect to complete enrollment in March 2026, several months ahead of guidance Expect to present topline data in Q4 2026 and use this data to submit a response to the CRL Typical FDA goal date for review of CRL response is ~6 months, implying potential for an updated decision by mid-2027

Disc’s EPP Community Commitment Disc’s belief in the importance of bringing a potential disease modifying therapy to the EPP community and the potential for bitopertin to set a new standard of care in EPP has not changed Disc has made every effort to bring bitopertin to the EPP community more quickly; while these efforts have not come to fruition, we remain committed to advancing the program and pursuing FDA approval of bitopertin During this process, Disc is committed to providing continued access to bitopertin for current clinical trial participants
