Skye Bioscience (NASDAQ: SKYE), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in metabolic health therapeutics, has granted stock options to a new non-executive employee. The Board of Directors approved a non-qualified stock option award to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock on May 7, 2025, under the company's Amended and Restated 2024 Inducement Plan.

Skye Bioscience (NASDAQ: SKYE) presented a clinical pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model at the European Congress on Obesity that demonstrates peripheral CB1 inhibition alone is sufficient for weight loss, while central (brain) inhibition is not required. The model analyzed data from various CB1 inhibitors including nimacimab, monlunabant, and rimonabant.
The study revealed that nimacimab showed the greatest peripheral restriction compared to small molecule-based inhibitors, with minimal brain penetration while maintaining sufficient peripheral inhibition. The Phase 2 dose of nimacimab achieves peripheral CB1 engagement at >7x the inhibition threshold while remaining >600x below this threshold in the brain, suggesting a potentially superior therapeutic index with fewer neuropsychiatric side effects.

Skye Bioscience (Nasdaq: SKYE), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in metabolic health therapeutics, has announced a new stock option grant under its Amended and Restated 2024 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan. The Board of Directors approved on April 23, 2025, a non-qualified stock option award for 19,000 shares to one new non-executive employee.
The stock options, granted at an exercise price of $1.73 per share (matching Nasdaq Global Select Market closing price), will vest over four years.

This grant aligns with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4) for inducement awards to new employees.
Skye Bioscience (NASDAQ: SKYE) has announced promising preclinical results for its CB1 antibody, nimacimab, in treating obesity. In a diet-induced obesity model, the combination of nimacimab with tirzepatide achieved over 30% weight loss after 25 days of treatment. Nimacimab alone demonstrated 23.5% weight loss, comparable to monlunabant and tirzepatide monotherapies.
New in vitro data revealed nimacimab's superior potency characteristics through its non-competitive allosteric binding to CB1, showing stable effectiveness even under high agonist concentrations, unlike monlunabant. This differentiated mechanism suggests potential advantages in treating obesity without the neuropsychiatric side effects associated with small molecule CB1 inhibitors.
The company expects to release top-line randomized data from the Phase 2a CBeyond™ study in late Q3/early Q4 2025.
