FDA approval was based on results from the largest Phase 3 clinical trial ever conducted for a new treatment against Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection in regions with a high prevalence of gonorrhea across five countries. NUZOLVENCE is one of the first new treatments approved by the FDA for uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea in nearly two decades. Gonorrhea affects more than 82 million people worldwide each year and is the second most reported bacterial STI in the United States.[1],[2] Waltham, MA – December 12, 2025 – Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics, a subsidiary of Innoviva, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVA), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved NUZOLVENCE® (zoliflodacin) for oral suspension, a first-in-class, single-dose oral medication for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea in adults and pediatric patients 12 years and older weighing at least 35 kg. The development of NUZOLVENCE was part of a private, not-for-profit collaboration with The Global Antibiotic Research and Development Partnership (GARDP), which sponsored and led the Phase 3 clinical trial that supported FDA approval. “The FDA’s approval of NUZOLVENCE marks a pivotal moment for patients and the broader healthcare community managing gonorrhea infections. For the first time in decades, both patients and their healthcare providers will have a single-dose, oral treatment option for uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea,” said David Altarac, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics. “This achievement underscores our commitment to advancing innovative therapies for infectious diseases and fighting antimicrobial resistance. It highlights the strength of our development capabilities, as well as our collaboration with GARDP and the global scientific community.” Gonorrhea is the second most common sexually transmitted bacterial infection worldwide, with more than 82 million new cases each year. In the United States alone, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that over 543,000 cases are reported each year and over 1 million incident cases occur annually,[3] underscoring the significant public health impact. The highest rates are seen among sexually active men ages 20-24, though anyone who has unprotected sex can be at risk.[4] Without timely treatment, gonorrhea can lead to serious and potentially permanent health complications. “The decades-long absence of new gonorrhea treatments, combined with rising global antibiotic resistance, has created significant challenges in managing this common but potentially serious sexually transmitted infection,” said Edward W. Hook III, M.D., Professor Emeritus of Medicine, University of Alabama at Birmingham, and lead investigator of the Phase 3 NUZOLVENCE trial. “In the pivotal Phase 3 study, NUZOLVENCE demonstrated non-inferiority compared to the current standard injectable therapy, including in infections caused by drug-resistant strains, while offering the convenience of a single oral dose.” “A new antibiotic that does not require injection and can be used for patients who are allergic to penicillin or related drugs meets two important unmet needs in the treatment of gonorrhea,” added Dr. Hook. The emergence and spread of global drug-resistant infections have led the World Health Organization (WHO) to identify antimicrobial resistance as one of the 10 most critical global health threats.[5] The bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae has developed resistance to most classes of antibiotics used to treat these infections, including cephalosporins such as ceftriaxone, an injectable treatment, which is the currently recommended first line therapy for uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea. The Company plans to commercialize NUZOLVENCE in the second half of 2026, either in collaboration with a commercialization partner or independently. About the Phase 3 Trial In a pivotal Phase 3, multinational, randomized, controlled, open-label, trial, NUZOLVENCE (zoliflodacin) demonstrated non-inferiority compared to the combination of ceftriaxone plus azithromycin for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea. NUZOLVENCE was generally well tolerated, and adverse events were comparable between treatment groups. No serious adverse events were reported. The study enrolled a total of 930 patients, including adolescent and adult participants, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single 3g oral dose of zoliflodacin versus a single dose of 500mg intramuscular injection of ceftriaxone plus 1g oral azithromycin for the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhea. This trial was the largest clinical trial ever conducted for a new treatment against Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection, with 16 trial sites in regions with a high prevalence of gonorrhea across five countries, including Belgium, the Netherlands, South Africa, Thailand, and the U.S. About NUZOLVENCE® (zoliflodacin) for oral suspension NUZOLVENCE is a first-in-class, single-dose, oral antibiotic FDA-approved for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea, including strains resistant to current first-line therapies. NUZOLVENCE is a spiropyrimidinetrione bacterial type II topoisomerase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea due to Neisseria gonorrhoeae in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older, weighing at least 35 kg. The NUZOLVENCE mechanism of action is distinct from that of currently approved antibiotics and has demonstrated activity against drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Important Safety Information (ISI) Indication and Usage Indication NUZOLVENCE® is a spiropyrimidinetrione bacterial type II topoisomerase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea due to Neisseria gonorrhoeae in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older, weighing at least 35 kg. Usage to Reduce Development of Drug-Resistant Bacteria: To reduce the development of drug-resistant bacteria and maintain the effectiveness of NUZOLVENCE and other antibacterial drugs, NUZOLVENCE should be used only to treat or prevent infections that are proven or strongly suspected to be caused by bacteria. Contraindications Known history of hypersensitivity to NUZOLVENCE. Concomitant use with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inducers because this is predicted to result in decreased plasma concentrations of zoliflodacin and may reduce the NUZOLVENCE efficacy. Warnings and Precautions Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Potential Risk for Pregnant Females Based on data from animal studies, NUZOLVENCE may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant female at clinically relevant doses. Avoid use during pregnancy. Advise pregnant females about the potential risk to the fetus with maternal exposure to NUZOLVENCE. Obtain a pregnancy test prior to initiation in persons of reproductive potential. Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Potential Risk Related to Males with Female Partners of Reproductive Potential: Based on data from an animal toxicity study, the risk of early pregnancy loss may be increased in female partners of males treated with NUZOLVENCE. Advise males with female partners of reproductive potential to use effective contraception for at least 3 months after NUZOLVENCE administration. Testicular Toxicity and Risks to Male Fertility: Based on findings from animal studies, NUZOLVENCE may cause testicular toxicity and impair male fertility. An assessment of spermatogenesis has not been conducted in humans. Advise males that NUZOLVENCE may cause testicular toxicity and impair male fertility. Hypersensitivity Reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, including rash and pruritus, have been reported in patients receiving NUZOLVENCE. Before therapy with NUZOLVENCE is instituted, carefully inquire about previous hypersensitivity reactions to NUZOLVENCE.

Phase 3 findings show oral zoliflodacin to be non-inferior to the combination of ceftriaxone and azithromycin for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea. Positive study results are a significant milestone in the development of a first-in-class single-dose, oral antibiotic against gonorrhea, including infections caused by drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae, an urgent public health threat and high-priority pathogen. Gonorrhea is the second most reported bacterial STI in the United States, with resistance to first-line treatment emerging.[1],[2] Waltham, MA – December 11, 2025 – Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics, Inc., a subsidiary of Innoviva, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVA), today announced the publication of positive results from a pivotal Phase 3 trial evaluating its investigational single-dose, oral antibiotic zoliflodacin for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea in The Lancet. The trial was sponsored and led by the Company’s not-for-profit partner, the Global Antibiotic Research & Development Partnership (GARDP). “Gonorrhea continues to be a significant public health concern worldwide, and the growing challenge of antimicrobial resistance only heightens the urgency for new treatment options,” said Dr. Edward (Ned) Hook, MD, Emeritus Professor of Medicine at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and protocol chair of the study. “The findings published today in The Lancet provide important evidence supporting the potential role of zoliflodacin as a novel, single-dose oral therapy for uncomplicated gonorrhea. These results represent a meaningful step forward in addressing the evolving landscape of gonococcal treatment.” More than 82 million new gonorrhea infections occur globally each year, which, if left untreated, can result in serious and permanent health consequences.[3] The emergence and spread of drug-resistant infections have led the World Health Organization to identify antimicrobial resistance as one of the ten most critical global health threats.[4] The bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae has developed resistance to most classes of antibiotics used to treat these infections, including cephalosporins such as ceftriaxone, an injectable treatment, which is the only recommended antimicrobial class for treating uncomplicated gonorrhea. “Our study demonstrated the non-inferior efficacy of zoliflodacin in uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea compared to a very potent, two-drug regimen,” said study co-author Stephanie N. Taylor, MD, Professor of Medicine, Section of Infectious Diseases, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center and Medical Director, LSU STD Research laboratory. “Microbiological cure rates at extragenital (pharyngeal and rectal) sites were also comparable between the two arms and both exhibited a similar safety profile.” Zoliflodacin study endpoints met the prespecified criteria for non-inferiority when compared to ceftriaxone and azithromycin (difference of 5.31% (95% CI 1.38%, 8.65%)) for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea. Zoliflodacin was generally well tolerated and adverse events were comparable between treatment groups. No serious adverse events were reported. The U.S. FDA has granted zoliflodacin a Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) designation. This designation allows it to benefit from FDA Priority Review, and Extended Market Exclusivity. Innoviva Specialty Therapeutics, Inc., received notification from the FDA in June 2025 that the agency accepted its New Drug Application (NDA) for review and has assigned a target action date of December 15, 2025, under the Prescription Drug User-Fee Act (PDUFA). “Currently, there is only one first-line treatment option available for patients with uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea. As clinicians, we are eagerly awaiting new treatments that can effectively overcome resistance and provide a single oral dosing option,” said Patrik Hornak, MD, Associate Program Director of the ID Fellowship Program and Clinical Director of the AIDS Education & Training Center Program at the University of Texas Medical Branch. “I am encouraged that these data will lead to a new option that supports early intervention, which is especially important for the health of communities at higher risk of infection and transmission of the disease.” About the Phase 3 Trial In a pivotal Phase 3, multinational, randomized, controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial, zoliflodacin demonstrated non-inferiority compared to the dual therapy of ceftriaxone plus azithromycin for the treatment of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea, with both treatment groups showing comparable safety profiles. The study enrolled 930 adolescent and adult participants to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single 3g oral dose of zoliflodacin versus a single dose of 500mg intramuscular injection of ceftriaxone plus 1g oral azithromycin for the treatment of uncomplicated gonorrhea. This trial was the largest clinical trial ever conducted for a new treatment against Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection, with 16 trial sites in regions with a high prevalence of gonorrhea across five countries, including Belgium, the Netherlands, South Africa, Thailand, and the U.S. The Phase 3 trial was supported with funding from the governments of Germany (BMFTR), UK (GAMRIF, part of DHSC, and DFID), Japan (MHLW), the Netherlands (Ministries of VWS and BZ), Switzerland (FOPH), The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, the Canton of Geneva, the South African Medical Research Council (SAMRC), and the Leo Model Foundation. About Zoliflodacin Zoliflodacin is an investigational, first-in-class oral antibiotic from the spiropyrimidinetrione class, currently in development as a single-dose treatment for uncomplicated gonorrhea, including strains resistant to current first-line therapies. Zoliflodacin inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase, an essential enzyme for bacterial survival. Zoliflodacin mechanism of action is distinct from that of currently approved antibiotics and has demonstrated activity against drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
