SYMBRAVO demonstrated statistically significantly greater migraine treatment response compared to prior treatment with an oral CGRP inhibitor (p<0.001, mTOQ-4 total score, primary endpoint) 2-hour pain freedom for most attacks reported at least half the time by 47.9% of patients after SYMBRAVO versus 1.0% after oral CGRPs (p<0.001) 24-hour or greater sustained pain relief after a single dose reported by 47.9% of patients after SYMBRAVO versus 16.7% after oral CGRPs (p<0.001) Ability to quickly return to normal activities reported by 51.0% of patients after SYMBRAVO versus 11.5% after oral CGRPs (p<0.001) SYMBRAVO improved quality of life compared to after oral CGRPs (p<0.001, MSQ) NEW YORK, Feb. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Axsome Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: AXSM), a biopharmaceutical company leading a new era in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, today announced that the EMERGE Phase 3 trial of SYMBRAVO® (MoSEIC™ meloxicam and rizatriptan) in patients experiencing inadequate response to oral CGRP inhibitors met its primary endpoint, with SYMBRAVO demonstrating statistically significantly greater migraine treatment response compared to oral CGRP inhibitors, as measured by the Migraine Treatment Optimization Questionnaire (mTOQ-4). SYMBRAVO is a novel multi-mechanistic approach to treating migraine that targets multiple pathways underlying a migraine attack. In the trial, SYMBRAVO rapidly and substantially improved migraine pain and most bothersome symptoms. EMERGE was an open-label trial that enrolled migraine patients who were undergoing treatment with an oral CGRP inhibitor for at least one month and experiencing an inadequate response to the oral CGRP inhibitor, with treatment response assessed using the mTOQ-4. Enrolled patients were switched to treatment with SYMBRAVO for their next four attacks. Treatment responses after the oral CGRP inhibitor treatment period and after the SYMBRAVO treatment period were compared. A total of 96 patients were enrolled and 365 migraine attacks were treated with SYMBRAVO in the trial. EMERGE met the primary endpoint by demonstrating statistically significantly greater migraine treatment response with SYMBRAVO compared to treatment response with prior oral CGRP inhibitors, as assessed by the mTOQ-4 total score (5.2 versus 2.8, p<0.001). Statistically significantly greater proportions of patients achieved clinical response on the 2-hour pain freedom, sustained pain freedom, ability to return to normal activities, and ability to plan daily activities mTOQ-4 items with SYMBRAVO compared to oral CGRP inhibitors: Pain freedom within 2 hours for most attacks was reported half the time or more by 47.9% of patients after treatment with SYMBRAVO, compared to 1.0% of patients after treatment with oral CGRPs (p<0.001). Sustained relief of migraine pain for at least 24 hours following a single dose of medication was reported half the time or more by 47.9% of patients after treatment with SYMBRAVO, compared to 16.7% of patients after treatment with oral CGRPs (p<0.001). The ability to quickly return to normal activities after taking their medication was reported half the time or more by 51.0% of patients after treatment with SYMBRAVO, compared to 11.5% of patients after treatment with oral CGRPs (p<0.001). The proportion of patients who reported being comfortable enough with their medication to be able to plan daily activities half the time or more was 63.5% after treatment with SYMBRAVO, compared to 26.0% after treatment with oral CGRPs (p<0.001). Further, SYMBRAVO treatment resulted in a statistically significant improvement in overall quality of life and daily functioning, as assessed by all three domains of the Migraine-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MSQ), compared to after treatment with oral CGRP inhibitors (p=0.003 to <0.001). Richard B. Lipton, MD, Professor of Neurology and Director of the Montefiore Headache Center, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, commented, “The results of the EMERGE study demonstrate significant improvements in migraine treatment response with SYMBRAVO for patients previously experiencing inadequate response to oral CGRPs based on the mTOQ-4. Migraine is a disabling neurological condition, and the multiple mechanisms of action of SYMBRAVO may be relevant to the complex and heterogenous nature of this serious condition. These data from the EMERGE study are compelling and provide further evidence for the utility of SYMBRAVO across a variety of migraine settings.” In this population of patients with a prior inadequate response to an oral CGRP inhibitor, SYMBRAVO rapidly and substantially relieved migraine pain within 2 hours, with benefits sustained through 24 and 48 hours after a single dose. Across all treated attacks, pain relief 2 hours after dosing with SYMBRAVO was achieved by 50.0% of patients, with some patients experiencing pain relief as early as 30 minutes after dosing. The pain relief achieved 2 hours after dosing was sustained through 24 and 48 hours by 78% and 75% of patients respectively. Pain freedom and freedom from the most bothersome symptom 2 hours after dosing with SYMBRAVO was achieved by 22.5% and 26.6% of patients, respectively. Overall improvement of migraine, measured using the Patient Global Impression of Change (PGI-C), was experienced early and in a substantial proportion of patients after treatment with SYMBRAVO. Overall improvement of their migraine was reported by 26.0% of patients 30 minutes post dose, and by 69.2% of patients 2 hours post dose. SYMBRAVO was well tolerated with a safety profile that was consistent with what has been previously observed in prior studies. The most commonly reported adverse events (≥2%) were fatigue (3.1%), nausea (3.1%), vomiting (2.1%), muscle tightness (2.1%), and dizziness (2.1%). Herriot Tabuteau, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Axsome Therapeutics, said, “We’re pleased to share the results of the Phase 3 EMERGE trial, which further underscore the robust efficacy of SYMBRAVO and its potential to effectively treat migraine attacks across a range of patient populations with varying pain intensities and prior responses to acute treatments. We look forward to launching SYMBRAVO in the U.S. in the coming months and offering a new treatment option that could make a meaningful difference for patients suffering from this disabling condition.” About the EMERGE Trial EMERGE (Evaluating Outcomes of AXS-07 after Acute Gepant Failures) was a Phase 3, open-label, multicenter trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SYMBRAVO in the acute treatment of migraine in patients experiencing inadequate response to an oral calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) inhibitor. Eligible patients must have been using an oral CGRP inhibitor for the acute treatment of migraine for at least 1 month prior to enrollment (having treated at least 4 migraines with an oral CGRP inhibitor) and have had an inadequate response to the oral CGRP inhibitor. An inadequate response was defined as a score of ≤7 on the Migraine Treatment Optimization Questionnaire (mTOQ-4), including a score of 1 (“less than half the time”) or 0 (“rarely” or “never”) on Question 2 (achievement of pain freedom 2 hours after taking migraine medication). Enrolled patients were switched from their oral CGRP inhibitor to SYMBRAVO and treated the next 4 migraine attacks with SYMBRAVO over a period of up to 8 weeks. A total of 96 patients were enrolled in the trial. The primary efficacy endpoint to assess treatment response with SYMBRAVO versus oral CGRP inhibitors was the change in the mTOQ-4 total score from the oral CGRP inhibitor treatment period to the SYMBRAVO treatment period. About the Migraine Treatment Optimization Questionnaire (mTOQ-4) The mTOQ-4 is a validated questionnaire that assesses the adequacy of migraine treatment efficacy based on four aspects of response to acute treatment: 2-hour pain freedom; sustained pain freedom; ability to quickly return to daily activities; and comfort planning daily activities. Each of the 4 items is scored, using frequency-based options, as never [0], rarely [0], less than half the time [1], and half of the time or more [2]. Total scores range from 0 to 8 with higher total scores corresponding to greater treatment optimization. A total score of 8 corresponds to maximum treatment efficacy, with total scores of 4-7 corresponding to moderate, 1-3 to poor, and 0 to very poor treatment optimization.1 About Migraine Migraine is a serious neurological condition characterized by recurrent attacks of pulsating, often severe and disabling head pain associated with nausea, sensitivity to light, and sensitivity to sound.2 It is estimated that over 39 million Americans suffer from migraine, and it is the leading cause of disability among neurological disorders in the United States according to the American Migraine Foundation.3-5 Extensive surveys of migraine sufferers underscore the unmet need for therapies that work faster, more consistently, and result in less symptom recurrence.6,7 Over 70% of patients report experiencing an inadequate response to their oral, acute migraine treatment.8 About SYMBRAVO SYMBRAVO is a novel, oral, single-dose medicine approved for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults.

A single oral dose of SYMBRAVO provided rapid migraine pain freedom and return to normal functioning within 2 hours, and sustained efficacy through 24 and 48 hours 85% and 77% of patients treated with a single dose of SYMBRAVO did not require migraine rescue medication within 24 hours in two Phase 3 studies SYMBRAVO demonstrated superior efficacy across a broad range of migraine severity (mild, moderate, and severe), and in head-to-head evaluation SYMBRAVO incorporates Axsome’s rapid absorption technology and mechanisms that target multiple migraine attack pathways Company to host conference call and webcast Friday, January 31, at 8:00 AM Eastern NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Axsome Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: AXSM), a biopharmaceutical company leading a new era in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved SYMBRAVO® (meloxicam and rizatriptan) for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults.1 SYMBRAVO represents a novel multi-mechanistic approach to treating migraine that targets multiple pathways underlying a migraine attack. SYMBRAVO can rapidly eliminate migraine pain and return patients to normal functioning, with efficacy sustained through 24 and 48 hours in some patients after a single dose. The efficacy of SYMBRAVO was demonstrated across a broad range of settings including at the earliest onset of migraine when the pain was mild, in patients with moderate and severe migraine pain, and in those with a history of various responses to prior acute treatments. The Company expects SYMBRAVO to be commercially available in the U.S. in approximately four months. Richard B. Lipton, MD, Professor of Neurology and Director of the Montefiore Headache Center, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, commented, “A significant proportion of migraine patients experience inadequate efficacy with currently available acute treatments, leading to even greater suffering, and an increased risk of worsening of migraine pain and attack frequency. Results of multiple clinical trials demonstrate that SYMBRAVO can provide rapid and long-lasting freedom from migraine pain, whether treatment is taken early in the attack while the pain is mild, or later in the attack when the pain may be severe. The approval of SYMBRAVO is a long awaited and much welcomed advancement for clinicians and our patients, providing a new, meaningful treatment option.” Stewart Tepper, MD, Clinical Professor of Neurology at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth and Vice President of the New England Institute for Neurology and Headache, said, “Migraine is a debilitating condition that affects millions of Americans. Unfortunately, many patients still struggle to find an option that effectively treats their attacks and is both safe and well tolerated, which creates a great need for new migraine medicines. SYMBRAVO’s approval by the FDA provides a new medicine for physicians and patients that was designed to target key unmet needs in the migraine treatment space. The clinical data supporting its approval validates the additive benefit of SYMBRAVO’s multi-mechanistic design and demonstrates its potential to make a meaningful difference for the migraine community.” Susan Doughty, Executive Director of the Coalition for Headache and Migraine Patients (CHAMP), added, “Migraine is one of the most misunderstood and stigmatized neurological diseases, despite the fact that one in four households in the U.S. includes someone living with it. This widespread lack of understanding creates unnecessary barriers for individuals seeking proper diagnosis, care, and treatment. CHAMP, alongside our 20 plus dedicated coalition organizations and patient advocates, is committed to empowering the migraine community by providing education, reducing stigma, and advocating for fair and equitable access to treatment options. The approval of SYMBRAVO as a new acute treatment for migraine is an important step forward, offering a new option for people seeking relief. We also see this moment as an opportunity to continue to shine a bright light on migraine, fostering greater awareness and helping to dismantle the stigma that so often surrounds this disease.” The FDA approval of SYMBRAVO is based on the results of the Phase 3 MOMENTUM trial that treated migraine of moderate and severe pain intensity, the Phase 3 INTERCEPT trial that treated migraine when the initial pain was mild, and the Phase 3 MOVEMENT long-term open label safety trial. In this comprehensive clinical program, over 21,000 migraine attacks were treated with SYMBRAVO. In the MOMENTUM trial, SYMBRAVO demonstrated a statistically significantly greater percentage of patients achieving pain freedom and freedom from their most bothersome symptom (photophobia, phonophobia, nausea) 2 hours after dosing compared to placebo. SYMBRAVO also demonstrated statistical superiority for pain relief (reduction of moderate or severe pain to no pain or mild pain) and the ability to perform normal daily activities. The benefits of pain freedom at 2 hours were sustained through 24 and 48 hours for many patients. In a head-to-head comparison, SYMBRAVO demonstrated statistically significant superiority compared to rizatriptan on sustained pain freedom from 2 to 24 hours. Notably, these benefits were seen with only a single dose of SYMBRAVO. In the MOMENTUM trial, 77% of patients treated with SYMBRAVO did not require rescue medication within 24 hours post dose. In the INTERCEPT trial, SYMBRAVO demonstrated a statistically significantly greater percentage of patients achieving pain freedom and freedom from their most bothersome symptom (photophobia, phonophobia, nausea) 2 hours after dosing compared to placebo. The benefits of pain freedom at 2 hours were sustained through 24 and 48 hours for many patients. Notably, these benefits were seen with only a single dose of SYMBRAVO. In the INTERCEPT trial, 85% of patients treated with SYMBRAVO did not require rescue medication within 24 hours post dose. The most common adverse reactions (≥1% and greater than placebo) in the controlled studies were somnolence and dizziness, being reported each in 2% and 1% of patients in the SYMBRAVO and placebo arms, respectively. The long-term safety of SYMBRAVO was demonstrated in the MOVEMENT trial, which assessed 706 patients dosing intermittently for up to 12 months and treating at least 2 migraines per month with SYMBRAVO. SYMBRAVO is engineered with Axsome’s patented MoSEICTM (Molecular Solubility Enhanced Inclusion Complex) rapid absorption technology. MoSEIC results in a five times faster median time to maximum plasma concentration for meloxicam while maintaining a long plasma half-life, enabling meloxicam’s use as a new molecular entity for the acute treatment of migraine. SYMBRAVO is protected by a robust patent estate extending out to at least 2040. Herriot Tabuteau, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Axsome Therapeutics, said, “Today’s approval of SYMBRAVO marks an important milestone for the migraine community by providing a rationally designed novel acute treatment for this debilitating condition. Migraine attacks strike without warning, and disrupt the lives of estimated more than 39 million patients in the U.S. alone. SYMBRAVO provides patients and clinicians an important new option which can quickly stop a migraine attack, keep it away, and allow patients to resume their normal activities, with just a single dose. SYMBRAVO demonstrates Axsome’s commitment to developing and delivering differentiated new treatments to improve the lives of patients living with difficult to treat central nervous system disorders.” Conference Call Information Axsome will host a conference call and webcast on Friday, January 31, at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss the approval of SYMBRAVO.

About Migraine Migraine is a serious neurological condition characterized by recurrent attacks of pulsating, often severe and disabling head pain associated with nausea, sensitivity to light, and sensitivity to sound.2 It is estimated that over 39 million Americans suffer from migraine, and it is the leading cause of disability among neurological disorders in the United States according to the American Migraine Foundation.3-5 Extensive surveys of migraine sufferers underscore the unmet need for therapies that work faster, more consistently, and result in less symptom recurrence.6,7 Over 70% of patients report experiencing an inadequate response to their oral, acute migraine treatment.8 About SYMBRAVO SYMBRAVO is a novel, oral, single-dose medicine approved for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults. SYMBRAVO consists of MoSEIC™ meloxicam and rizatriptan. Meloxicam is a new molecular entity for migraine enabled by Axsome’s MoSEIC (Molecular Solubility Enhanced Inclusion Complex) technology, which enables the rapid absorption of meloxicam while maintaining a long plasma half-life. Meloxicam is a COX-2 preferential non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and rizatriptan is a 5-HT1B/1D agonist. SYMBRAVO is designed to provide rapid, enhanced, and consistent migraine pain relief, and reduced symptom recurrence. The exact mechanism of action of SYMBRAVO in the treatment of acute migraine is unknown. For more information, visit www.symbravo.com.
