About Navacaprant Clinical Development Program
Navacaprant (NMRA-140) is a highly selective, novel, once-daily kappa opioid receptor (KOR) antagonist being developed as a potential monotherapy treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) and other neuropsychiatric disorders. The KOR antagonist approach has been clinically validated in three independent studies.

Neumora is currently enrolling the registrational Phase 3 KOASTAL program, which is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of navacaprant monotherapy for the treatment of MDD. KOASTAL-1, KOASTAL-2, and KOASTAL-3 are replicate Phase 3, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies in adult patients with MDD. Neumora is also evaluating the potential of navacaprant for the treatment of bipolar depression (BPD) in a Phase 2 study initiated in May 2024.

Neumora expect to report data from KOASTAL-1 study in the fourth quarter of 2024, topline data from the KOASTAL-2 and KOASTAL-3 studies in the first half of 2025 and topline data from the Phase 2 BPD study in the second half of 2025.
