(Nasdaq: MPLT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on improving the lives of patients suffering from debilitating central nervous system disorders, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided a business update. “We are continuing to see strong momentum across our clinical portfolio, including completion of enrollment in the Phase 2 ZEPHYR and IRIS trials,” said Chris Kroeger, co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “With topline results from both studies expected by mid-August, continued advancement of our VISTA trial in Alzheimer’s disease psychosis and progress across our early-stage pipeline, MapLight is entering an important inflection point in our mission to improve the lives of patients living with debilitating neuropsychiatric disorders.” Business Update and Upcoming Milestones ML-007C-MA (M 1 /M 4 Muscarinic Agonist) for the Treatment of Schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s Disease Psychosis (ADP): Completed enrollment of 307 participants in the Phase 2 ZEPHYR trial for schizophrenia, with topline results expected by mid-August of 2026. ZEPHYR is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ML-007C-MA in inpatient adult participants with schizophrenia experiencing an acute exacerbation of psychosis. Participants in the trial were randomized 1:1:1 to receive either placebo, ML-007C-MA 210/3 mg twice daily, or ML-007C-MA 330/6 mg once daily. The primary endpoint for the trial is the change in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score from baseline to Week 5. Key secondary endpoints include change in PANSS-Marder positive and negative factor scores and CGI-S score from baseline to Week 5. Exploratory endpoints include change in cognitive function, assessed across multiple domains commonly impacted in schizophrenia, from baseline to Week 5. Topline results from Phase 2 VISTA trial for ADP expected in the second half of 2027. VISTA is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating ML-007C-MA for the treatment of ADP. The Company expects to enroll approximately 300 participants in the trial. In December 2025, ML-007C-MA was granted Fast Track designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of hallucinations and delusions associated with ADP. ML-004 (5-HT 1B/1D Agonist) for the Treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): The last patient visit in ML-004’s Phase 2 IRIS trial in autism spectrum disorder has been completed, with topline results expected by mid-August 2026. IRIS is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ML-004 in adults and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. 161 participants were randomized in the trial, consistent with the enrollment target of over 100 adolescents (aged 12-17). The primary endpoint is the change in Autism Behavioral Inventory (ABI)-Social Communication Domain Score from baseline to Week 12. Key secondary endpoints include change in CGI-I, ABI-C and Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Irritability (ABC-I) score from baseline to Week 12. Preclinical and Discovery : The Company continues to advance preclinical and discovery-stage programs across its broader neuropsychiatric portfolio. First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Cash Position: Cash, cash equivalents and investments were $395.2 million as of March 31, 2026. Based on current operational plans and assumptions, the Company expects that its current cash, cash equivalents and investments will be sufficient to fund operations through 2027. R&D Expenses: Research and development (R&D) expenses were $53.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, as compared to $19.8 million for the first quarter of 2025. R&D expenses increased primarily due to increases in clinical trial expenses and employee-related expenses, including an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $5.3 million. G&A Expenses: General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $10.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, as compared to $3.8 million for the first quarter of 2025. G&A expenses increased primarily due to increases in employee-related expenses, including an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $4.2 million, and increases in professional fees and other expenses. Net Loss: Net loss was $60.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, as compared to $22.3 million for the first quarter of 2025.
