CAPLYTA fourth quarter 2023 net product sales grew to $131.5 million, a 50% increase over the same period in 2022 In 2023, CAPLYTA total prescriptions achieved strong year-over-year growth of 85% CAPLYTA 2024 net product sales guidance of $645 to $675 million NEW YORK, Feb. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Intra-Cellular Therapies, Inc. (Nasdaq: ITCI), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of therapeutics for central nervous system (CNS) disorders, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023 and provided a corporate update. “I am very proud of our accomplishments in 2023, including the continued strong uptake of CAPLYTA. In the year ahead, we are focused on continuing CAPLYTA’s momentum and advancing our pipeline. We look forward to the upcoming CAPLYTA Phase 3 read outs in adjunctive MDD and the potential to help a growing number of patients,” said Dr. Sharon Mates, Chairman and CEO of Intra-Cellular Therapies. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS: Net product sales of CAPLYTA were $462.2 million for the full year 2023. This represents an increase of 86% compared to 2022. This growth was fueled by strong underlying prescription demand which grew 85% year-over-year in 2023. For the fourth quarter 2023, CAPLYTA net product sales reached $131.5 million representing a 50% increase over the fourth quarter of 2022.Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 was $139.7 million or $1.46 per share (basic and diluted) compared to a net loss of $256.3 million or $2.72 per share (basic and diluted) for the year ended December 31, 2022. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $28.6 million compared to a net loss of $44.0 million for the same period in 2022.Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $409.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $358.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase is primarily due to an increase in commercialization, marketing and advertising costs. Research and development (R&D) expenses were $180.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $134.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. This increase is primarily due to higher lumateperone clinical and non-clinical project costs, and higher non-lumateperone project costs, including the ITI-1284, ITI-214, and ITI-333 programs.Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investment securities totaled $499.7 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $593.7 million at December 31, 2022. Full Year 2024 Financial Outlook: CAPLYTA 2024 net product sales are expected to be $645 to $675 million.SG&A expenses for the full year 2024 are expected to be $450 to $480 million, including approximately $42.5 million of non-cash, share-based compensation expense. SG&A guidance reflects our commitment to continue to effectively and efficiently support CAPLYTA commercialization through investments in our sales and marketing activities.R&D expenses for the full year 2024 are expected to be $215 to $240 million, including approximately $20 million of non-cash, share-based compensation expense. Our R&D guidance reflects investments to support our broad pipeline. In 2024, we anticipate that a large portion of our total R&D expenditures will be related to our lumateperone development programs as we continue to explore the use of lumateperone in additional patient populations. 2024 Guidance(in $ millions) low highCAPLYTA Net Product Sales (GAAP)$645 $675SG&A expenses (GAAP)$450 $480R&D expenses (GAAP)$215 $240 COMMERCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Successfully continued the launch of CAPLYTA for the treatment of bipolar depression in adults. In 2023, CAPLYTA strong prescription demand continued with 85% total prescription growth over 2022. In the fourth quarter, total prescriptions of CAPLYTA increased 55% over the same period in 2022, and 10% sequentially over the third quarter of 2023. In 2023, we continued to improve market access for CAPLYTA across all three major channels. Our market access for CAPLYTA covers approximately 90% of commercially insured lives and greater than 99% of the Medicare Part D and Medicaid lives.Our LytaLink patient and prescriber support program continues to be very effective in supporting patient access to CAPLYTA. CLINICAL HIGHLIGHTS Lumateperone: Adjunctive MDD program: Studies 501, 502 and 505 are our global Phase 3 clinical trials evaluating lumateperone 42 mg as an adjunctive therapy to antidepressants for the treatment of major depressive disorder. Study 501 is fully enrolled and most patients have completed treatment. We allowed the small number of patients who were in screening when we reached our previously determined enrollment target to continue and be randomized to the double-blind treatment phase of the study. As a result, we expect to report topline results from Study 501 in April of this year. In addition, we expect to report topline results from Study 502 late in the second quarter of this year. Subject to those results, we continue to anticipate filing a supplemental New Drug Application with the FDA in the second half of 2024. Mixed Features program: In 2023, we reported robust positive results from Study 403, our clinical trial evaluating lumateperone in patients with major depressive disorder exhibiting mixed features and patients with bipolar depression exhibiting mixed features In this study, lumateperone 42 mg was statistically significant on the primary endpoint of symptom reduction on the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) for the combined mixed features patient population of MDD and bipolar depression and the individual patient populations of MDD with mixed features and bipolar depression with mixed features. The robust effect sizes ranged from 0.64 to 0.67. Lumateperone was generally safe and well tolerated, with a side effect profile consistent with prior trials. There were no notable changes in weight, body mass index or waist circumference and no clinically relevant changes in metabolic parameters. Last year, we presented results from Study 403 at several medical conferences including the Psych Congress, the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology Congress and the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology annual meeting. Lumateperone pediatric program: We have commenced our lumateperone pediatric program. This program includes an open-label safety study in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder; a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in bipolar depression and two double-blind, placebo-controlled studies in irritability associated with autism spectrum disorder. The patient enrollment in the open-label safety study has commenced. Lumateperone Long Acting Injectable (LAI) formulation: The goal of the program is to develop LAI formulations that are effective, safe, and well-tolerated with treatment durations of one month or longer. For our first LAI formulation, we have completed the pre-clinical development and conducted a Phase 1 single ascending dose study. We expect to initiate a Phase 1 single ascending dose study with four additional formulations in the first half of 2024. Other pipeline programs: ITI-1284-ODT-SL program: ITI-1284 is a deuterated form of lumateperone, a new chemical entity formulated as an oral disintegrating tablet for sublingual administration. In 2023, we advanced several Phase 1 studies. We have initiated Phase 2 programs evaluating ITI-1284 in generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), psychosis in Alzheimer’s disease, and agitation in Alzheimer’s disease and anticipate commencing patient enrollment in the first half of 2024. Phosphodiesterase type I inhibitor (PDE1) program: Our portfolio of PDE1 inhibitors continues to advance clinical development. Lenrispodun (ITI-214) Parkinson’s disease (PD) program: Patient enrollment in our Phase 2 clinical trial is ongoing. The objective of this study is to evaluate improvements in motor symptoms in patients with PD. Changes in cognition and inflammatory biomarkers are also being assessed. We expect to complete patient enrollment in late 2024 with topline results anticipated in the first half of 2025. ITI-1020 cancer immunotherapy program: Our Phase 1 single ascending dose study in healthy volunteers is progressing. The objective of this study is to evaluate pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of different doses of ITI-1020. ITI-333 program: ITI-333, a 5-HT2A receptor antagonist and μ-opioid receptor partial agonist, provides potential utility in the treatment of opioid use disorder and pain. A multiple ascending dose study and a positron emission tomography (PET) study are both ongoing. ITI-1500 Non-Hallucinogenic Psychedelic Program: In 2023, we introduced the ITI-1500 program. This program is focused on the development of novel non-hallucinogenic psychedelics for the treatment of mood, anxiety and other neuropsychiatric disorders without the liabilities of known psychedelics, including the hallucinogenic potential and risk for cardiac valvular pathologies. Our lead product candidate in this program, ITI-1549, is advancing through IND enabling studies and is expected to enter human testing in late 2024 or early 2025.

CAPLYTA® (lumateperone) is indicated in adults for the treatment of schizophrenia and for the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar I or II disorder (bipolar depression) as monotherapy and as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate. Important Safety Information Boxed Warnings: Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. CAPLYTA is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis.Antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in pediatric and young adults in short-term studies. All antidepressant-treated patients should be closely monitored for clinical worsening, and for emergence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The safety and effectiveness of CAPLYTA have not been established in pediatric patients. Contraindications: CAPLYTA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to lumateperone or any components of CAPLYTA. Reactions have included pruritus, rash (e.g., allergic dermatitis, papular rash, and generalized rash), and urticaria. Warnings & Precautions: Antipsychotic drugs have been reported to cause: Cerebrovascular Adverse Reactions in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis, including stroke and transient ischemic attack. See Boxed Warning above.Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), which is a potentially fatal reaction. Signs and symptoms include: high fever, stiff muscles, confusion, changes in breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure, elevated creatinine phosphokinase, myoglobinuria (and/or rhabdomyolysis), and acute renal failure. Patients who experience signs and symptoms of NMS should immediately contact their doctor or go to the emergency room.Tardive Dyskinesia, a syndrome of uncontrolled body movements in the face, tongue, or other body parts, which may increase with duration of treatment and total cumulative dose. TD may not go away, even if CAPLYTA is discontinued. It can also occur after CAPLYTA is discontinued.Metabolic Changes, including hyperglycemia, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and weight gain. Hyperglycemia, in some cases extreme and associated with ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar coma or death, has been reported in patients treated with antipsychotics. Measure weight and assess fasting plasma glucose and lipids when initiating CAPLYTA and monitor periodically during long-term treatment.Leukopenia, Neutropenia, and Agranulocytosis (including fatal cases). Complete blood counts should be performed in patients with pre-existing low white blood cell count (WBC) or history of leukopenia or neutropenia. CAPLYTA should be discontinued if clinically significant decline in WBC occurs in absence of other causative factors.Decreased Blood Pressure & Dizziness. Patients may feel lightheaded, dizzy or faint when they rise too quickly from a sitting or lying position (orthostatic hypotension). Heart rate and blood pressure should be monitored and patients should be warned with known cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease. Orthostatic vital signs should be monitored in patients who are vulnerable to hypotension.Falls. CAPLYTA may cause sleepiness or dizziness and can slow thinking and motor skills, which may lead to falls and, consequently, fractures and other injuries. Patients should be assessed for risk when using CAPLYTA.Seizures. CAPLYTA should be used cautiously in patients with a history of seizures or with conditions that lower seizure threshold.Potential for Cognitive and Motor Impairment. Patients should use caution when operating machinery or motor vehicles until they know how CAPLYTA affects them.Body Temperature Dysregulation.

Dose reduction is recommended for patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment. Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in clinical trials with CAPLYTA vs. placebo were somnolence/sedation, dizziness, nausea, and dry mouth. CAPLYTA is available in 10.5 mg, 21 mg, and 42 mg capsules. Please click here to see full Prescribing Information including Boxed Warning. About CAPLYTA (lumateperone) CAPLYTA 42 mg is an oral, once daily atypical antipsychotic approved in adults for the treatment of schizophrenia and the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar I or II disorder (bipolar depression) as monotherapy and as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate. While the mechanism of action of CAPLYTA is unknown, the efficacy of CAPLYTA could be mediated through a combination of antagonist activity at central serotonin 5-HT2A receptors and postsynaptic antagonist activity at central dopamine D2 receptors. Lumateperone is being studied for the treatment of major depressive disorder, and other neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders. Lumateperone is not FDA-approved for these disorders.
