KEY PIPELINE HIGHLIGHTS

Neumora is advancing a therapeutic pipeline of seven neuroscience programs that target novel mechanisms of action for a broad range of underserved neuropsychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases.

Navacaprant (NMRA-140): Optimized KOASTAL-2 and -3 Phase 3 Studies Enrolling; Data Expected in 2026

The Company expects to report topline data from KOASTAL-3 in the first quarter of 2026 and KOASTAL-2 in the second quarter of 2026.

Additionally, the Company today announced the publication of data from the randomized, double-blind, Phase 2 clinical trial of navacaprant in major depressive disorder in the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology. In the study, navacaprant monotherapy demonstrated statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in symptoms of depression and anhedonia in participants with moderate-to-severe major depressive disorder.

NMRA-511: On Track to Report Data from Phase 1b Study in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) Agitation Around the End of 2025

Neumora is advancing a Phase 1b signal-seeking study evaluating NMRA-511 initially in healthy elderly adult participants in Part A and then people with agitation associated with dementia due to AD in Part B. The Company is on track to report data around the end of 2025.

M4 Positive Allosteric Modulator (PAM) Franchise: Progress M4 PAM Program into the Clinic in Mid-2025

Neumora’s M4 franchise comprises multiple novel compounds. Each compound has different properties and chemical composition, has demonstrated robust activity in preclinical efficacy models and shown high selectivity for the M4 receptor. The Company plans to progress an M4 program into the clinic in mid-2025.

KEY BUSINESS UPDATES

Neumora today announced that it has entered into a venture debt facility for up to $125 million with K2 HealthVentures, an alternative investment firm that provides flexible, long-term financing solutions in the life sciences and healthcare industries.
