Definium Therapeutics, Inc. ("Definium" or the "Company"), a late-stage clinical biopharmaceutical company developing a new generation of therapeutics intended to address underlying causes of psychiatric and neurological disorders, today reported its full-year 2025 financial results and provided business updates.

"We are proud of the strong execution and momentum across our organization, following a year of significant progress in our comprehensive development programs for DT120 ODT," said Rob Barrow, Chief Executive Officer of Definium Therapeutics. "With our first Phase 3 MDD trial, Emerge, now fully enrolled and advancing toward topline data sooner than anticipated, and our Phase 3 GAD studies, Voyage and Panorama, rapidly progressing toward enrollment completion, 2026 represents a monumental year for Definium. Each of these pivotal readouts represents an important catalyst opportunity to move DT120 ODT one step closer to delivering on its best-in-class potential in both MDD and GAD. We remain committed to precise science and our ambitious view of the potential to deliver meaningful improvements for patients, reinforce our leadership in mental health innovation, and drive long-term shareholder value."

Business Updates

• Published full study results in the Journal of the American Medical Association from the Company's randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 2b trial evaluating a single dose of DT120 across four dose levels in patients with moderate to severe generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). DT120 has received FDA Breakthrough Designation for GAD.

He currently serves as Chief Operating Officer of Insmed.
• Company to host Investor and Analyst Day on April 22, 2026, to discuss program updates and the commercial opportunity for DT120 orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) (lysergide tartrate).

Program Updates and Anticipated Milestones

The program for DT120 ODT (lysergide tartrate) consists of four pivotal Phase 3 studies, two in GAD and two in major depressive disorder (MDD). Each study is comprised of two parts: Part A, a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group assessing the efficacy and safety of DT120 ODT versus placebo, and Part B, a 40-week open-label extension period. The primary endpoint in the GAD studies is the change from baseline in Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAM-A) score at Week 12 between DT120 ODT 100 µg and placebo; and in the MDD studies the change from baseline in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) score at Week 6 between DT120 ODT 100 µg and placebo.

DT120 ODT (lysergide tartrate) for MDD

• Emerge: study is fully enrolled with 149 patients randomized 1:1 to receive DT120 ODT 100 µg or placebo. Topline data are anticipated in late 2Q 2026.
• Ascend: initial sites have been activated, and study initiation has been accelerated with first patient dosing anticipated by early 2Q 2026. The trial is expected to enroll approximately 175 participants randomized 2:1:2 to receive DT120 ODT 100 µg, DT120 ODT 50 µg control, or placebo.

DT120 ODT (lysergide tartrate) for GAD

• Voyage: study enrollment is approximately 80% complete and is expected to conclude in the coming weeks. Topline data are anticipated in early 3Q 2026. The protocol-specified blinded sample size re-estimation is complete, requiring no increase in enrollment. Voyage is expected to enroll approximately 200 participants in the U.S. randomized 1:1 to receive DT120 ODT 100 µg or placebo.
• Panorama: study enrollment on track with topline data anticipated in 2H 2026. Panorama is expected to enroll approximately 250 participants, in the U.S. and Europe, randomized 2:1:2 to receive DT120 ODT 100 µg, DT120 ODT 50 µg control, or placebo. Further enrollment updates and the outcome of the protocol-specified, blinded sample size re-estimation is planned to be provided at Investor and Analyst Day on April 22, 2026.

DT402 (R(-)-MDMA) for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

• Following the completion of its single-ascending dose Phase 1 study of DT402 in adult healthy volunteers, the Company initiated a Phase 2a study in 4Q 2025. The study is a single-dose, open-label study assessing early signals of efficacy of DT402 in treating core socialization and communication symptoms of ASD in up to 20 adult participants. The objectives and endpoints of the study are designed to characterize the pharmacodynamics and clinical effects of DT402 in adults with ASD, including on multiple functional biomarkers. Initial data from the Phase 2a study is anticipated in 2026.

2025 Financial Results

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments. As of December 31, 2025, Definium Therapeutics had cash, cash equivalents and investments of $411.6 million compared to $273.7 million as of December 31, 2024. Based on the Company's current operating plan and anticipated milestones, the Company believes that its cash, cash equivalents and investments as of December 31, 2025 will be sufficient to fund the Company's operations into 2028.

The increase was primarily due to increases of $44.7 million in DT120 program expenses, $9.3 million in internal personnel costs reflecting expanded research and development capabilities, and $0.4 million in preclinical and other program expenses, partially offset by a $2.0 million reduction in DT402 program expenses.

General and Administrative (G&A). G&A expenses were $48.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $38.6 million for the year ended December 30, 2024, an increase of $10.0 million. The increase was primarily due to increases of $6.0 million in professional services and pre-commercialization activities, $3.6 million in personnel-related expenses, $0.7 million in directors' deferred share unit expenses and $0.5 million in other miscellaneous administrative expenses, offset by a reduction of $0.8 million in legal and patent-related expenses.

About DT120 Orally Disintegrating Tablet (ODT)

DT120 ODT (lysergide tartrate) is an ergoline derivative belonging to the group of classic serotonergic psychedelics which acts as a partial agonist at specific serotonin receptors (human serotonin-2A (5-HT2A) receptors). DT120 ODT is Definium's proprietary and pharmaceutically optimized formulation of LSD. DT120 ODT is an advanced formulation incorporating Catalent's Zydis^® ODT fast-dissolve technology, which is designed to deliver several unique advantages, such as faster absorption and faster onset of transient cognitive, perceptual, and affective changes, improved bioavailability, and lower incidence of gastrointestinal side effects. Definium is developing DT120, the tartrate salt form of lysergide, for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), major depressive disorder (MDD), and is exploring its potential applications in other serious brain health disorders.

About DT402

DT402 is the Company's proprietary form of R(-)-MDMA (rectus-3,4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine), being developed for the treatment of core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). MDMA is a synthetic molecule that is often referred to as an empathogen because it is reported to increase feelings of connectedness and compassion. Preclinical studies of R(-)-MDMA demonstrate its acute pro-social and empathogenic effects, while its diminished dopaminergic activity suggest that it has the potential to exhibit less stimulant activity, neurotoxicity, hyperthermia and abuse liability compared to racemic MDMA or the S(+)-enantiomer.
