Zembrace® SymTouch® and Tosymra® will be marketed by Tonix Medicines, Tonix’s wholly-owned commercial subsidiary Commercial capabilities prepare Tonix for the potential launch in 2025 of Tonmya™ for the management of fibromyalgia, assuming FDA approval CHATHAM, N.J., March 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tonix Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), a biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced that it will achieve its goal of transitioning to a fully integrated pharmaceutical company on April 1, 2024. Since the acquisition of Zembrace® SymTouch® (sumatriptan injection) 3 mg and Tosymra® (sumatriptan nasal spray) 10 mg on June 30, 2023, Tonix Pharmaceuticals has been putting in place the personnel, systems and contracts required to support a commercial organization. Both products are indicated for the treatment of acute migraine with or without aura in adults. “Tonix will become a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company with a mission of developing and marketing innovative, high-value therapeutics,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “Tonix will assume responsibility for the distribution, selling and marketing of Zembrace SymTouch and Tosymra, as well as supply chain, regulatory and quality control of the two products.” Dr. Lederman added, “The assumption of commercial activities by Tonix represents an important milestone in the evolution of Tonix as we continue to build and strengthen our commercial organization for the potential launch of Tonmya™ (cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) for fibromyalgia in 2025, assuming approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).” About Zembrace® SymTouch® and Tosymra® Zembrace SymTouch is the only actively promoted brand of sumatriptan autoinjector in the United States (other sumatriptan autoinjector products on the market are Imitrex® and generics to Imitrex®). It has a unique low dose and has demonstrated onset of migraine pain relief in as few as 10 minutes (17% of patients vs. 5% for placebo).1 Zembrace SymTouch also demonstrated migraine pain freedom for 46% of patients (vs 27% for placebo) at 2 hours in a single-attack, double-blind study (N=230).1 Zembrace SymTouch currently has patent protection to 2036. Tosymra employs Intravail® permeation enhancer technology and is pharmacokinetically equivalent to 4 mg subcutaneous sumatriptan.2 Tosymra delivers migraine pain relief in as little as 10 minutes with just one spray for some patients (13% vs. 5% for placebo).2 Tosymra currently has patent protection to 2031. About Migraine Nearly 40 million people in the United States suffer from migraine3 and it has been recognized as the second leading cause of disability in the world.4 Migraine is characterized by debilitating attacks lasting four to 72 hours with multiple symptoms, including pulsating headaches of moderate to severe pain intensity often associated with nausea or vomiting, and/or sensitivity to sound (phonophobia) and sensitivity to light (photophobia).3 References: Zembrace SymTouch [package insert].

Phase 3 RESILIENT study of Tonmya met its primary endpoint of daily pain reduction (p=0.00005) and achieved statistically significant improvement on all six key pre-specified secondary endpoints with effect sizes on sleep, fatigue, FIQ-R symptoms and FIQ-R function ranging from 0.3 to 0.5 Cognitive dysfunction, or “brain fog,” nominally improved on FIQ-R memory item (p=0.001) where the patients rated their level of memory problems NDA submission expected in the second half of 2024 following pre-NDA meeting with FDA scheduled for the second quarter of 2024 CHATHAM, N.J., March 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), a biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced the presentation of additional efficacy data from RESILIENT, the second positive Phase 3 study evaluating Tonmya (also known as TNX-102 SL, cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) for the management of fibromyalgia, at the 6th International Congress on Controversies in Fibromyalgia in Brussels, Belgium, March 7-8, 2024. In presenting more detailed data from the RESILIENT study, Seth Lederman, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals, said, “We previously reported statistically significant and clinically meaningful results in all six key secondary endpoints related to improving sleep quality, reducing fatigue, and improving overall fibromyalgia symptoms and function. We now report that the effect sizes of the five continuous key secondary outcomes measures ranged from 0.3 to 0.5. The results also showed that Tonmya treatment resulted in an improvement in cognitive dysfunction, or ‘brain fog’, measured by the change in the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire-Revised (FIQ-R) memory item. The FIQ-R cognitive item showed nominal improvement in Tonmya-treated patients vs placebo-treated patients with a p=0.001 and effect size of 0.31. Together, we believe the activity of Tonmya on pain, sleep quality, fatigue and brain fog are indicative of broad-spectrum activity of Tonmya and suggest that Tonmya treats fibromyalgia at a syndromal level.” As previously announced, RESILIENT met its pre-specified primary endpoint, significantly reducing daily pain compared to placebo (p=0.00005) in participants with fibromyalgia. RELIEF, the first Phase 3 trial of Tonmya 5.6 mg in fibromyalgia, was completed in December 2020. It also met its pre-specified primary endpoint of daily pain reduction compared to placebo (p=0.010). Tonix plans to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the second half of 2024 and has scheduled a pre-NDA meeting with FDA in the second quarter of 2024. Tonmya was not associated with increases in systolic or diastolic blood pressure or body weight, nor were there any reported sexual side effects in the RESILIENT trial. In addition, when systematically investigated using the Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire short form (CSFQ-14), women who received study drug had a higher CSFQ-14 total score relative to those who received placebo, which is consistent with improved sexual function. Dr. Gregory Sullivan, Chief Medical Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals said, “These are important tolerability factors for fibromyalgia patients on long-term treatment with the three FDA-approved drugs, since weight gain and fatigue are associated with gabapentinoids, and negative sexual side effects, increased blood pressure and insomnia are associated with SNRIs.” Dr. Lederman added, “We believe that the data from our two positive Phase 3 studies, with clinically meaningful separation from placebo on pain, sleep disturbance, and fatigue, supports the conclusion that fibromyalgia may be successfully treated with Tonmya 5.6 mg, and may provide the opportunity for Tonix to launch the first FDA-approved drug for fibromyalgia in more than a decade. We are excited to bring forward a new first-line treatment to fibromyalgia patients that offers broad symptom relief with favorable tolerability attributes for chronic use and adherence, which provides hope for the 6-12 million affected adults in the U.S.” Dr. Sullivan added, “We believe that these broad-spectrum efficacy results will be important to fibromyalgia patients who struggle not only with pain, but also multiple other symptoms. We also believe the favorable tolerability and side effect profiles will be important to patients and doctors managing this debilitating condition on a long-term basis.” About the Phase 3 RESILIENT Study The RESILIENT study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Tonmya (cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) in the management of fibromyalgia. The two-arm trial randomized 457 participants in the U.S. across 33 sites. The first two weeks of treatment consist of a run-in period in which participants start on Tonmya 2.8 mg (1 tablet) or placebo. Thereafter, all participants increase their dose to Tonmya 5.6 mg (2 x 2.8 mg tablets) or two placebo tablets for the remaining 12 weeks. The primary endpoint is the daily diary pain severity score change (Tonmya 5.6 mg vs. placebo) from baseline to Week 14 (using the weekly averages of the daily numerical rating scale scores), analyzed by mixed model repeated measures with multiple imputation. The results showed that Tonmya treatment resulted in an improvement in cognitive dysfunction or ‘brain fog’ measured by the change in the FIQ-R memory item. The FIQ-R cognition item showed improvement in Tonmya treated patients vs placebo treated patients (LS mean (SE) difference of −0.8 (0.23); nominal p=0.001; effect size 0.31, no correction for multiple comparisons, mixed model repeated measures analysis). The Cohen’s d effect sizes (ESs) of the five continuous key secondary outcomes measures were: Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire-Revised (FIQ-R) – Symptoms domain ES = 0.44, FIQ-R-Function ES =0.30, PROMIS sleep disturbance ES =0.50, PROMIS Fatigue ES = 0.37 and Daily Sleep quality rating ES = 0.32. The most common adverse events were local administration site reactions that were transient and self-limited. For more information, see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05273749. About Fibromyalgia Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder that is understood to result from amplified sensory and pain signaling within the central nervous system. Fibromyalgia afflicts an estimated 6 million to 12 million adults in the U.S., the majority of whom are women. Symptoms of fibromyalgia include chronic widespread pain, nonrestorative sleep, fatigue, and morning stiffness. Other associated symptoms include cognitive dysfunction and mood disturbances, including anxiety and depression. Individuals suffering from fibromyalgia struggle with their daily activities, have impaired quality of life, and frequently are disabled. Physicians and patients report common dissatisfaction with currently marketed products.

The most common adverse events were local administration site reactions that were transient and self-limited. For more information, see ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05273749. About Fibromyalgia Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder that is understood to result from amplified sensory and pain signaling within the central nervous system. Fibromyalgia afflicts an estimated 6 million to 12 million adults in the U.S., the majority of whom are women. Symptoms of fibromyalgia include chronic widespread pain, nonrestorative sleep, fatigue, and morning stiffness. Other associated symptoms include cognitive dysfunction and mood disturbances, including anxiety and depression. Individuals suffering from fibromyalgia struggle with their daily activities, have impaired quality of life, and frequently are disabled. Physicians and patients report common dissatisfaction with currently marketed products. About Tonmya* (also known as TNX-102 SL) Tonmya is a centrally acting, non-opioid, non-addictive, bedtime medication. The tablet is a patented sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride developed for the management of fibromyalgia. In December 2023, the company announced highly statistically significant and clinically meaningful topline results in RESILIENT, a second positive Phase 3 clinical trial of Tonmya for the management of fibromyalgia. In the study, Tonmya met its pre-specified primary endpoint, significantly reducing daily pain compared to placebo (p=0.00005) in participants with fibromyalgia. Statistically significant and clinically meaningful results were also seen in all key secondary endpoints related to improving sleep quality, reducing fatigue and improving overall fibromyalgia symptoms and function. RELIEF, the first positive Phase 3 trial of Tonmya in fibromyalgia, was completed in December 2020. It met its pre-specified primary endpoint of daily pain reduction compared to placebo (p=0.010) and showed activity in key secondary endpoints. *Tonmya™ is conditionally accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as the tradename for TNX-102 SL for the management of fibromyalgia. Tonmya has not been approved for any indication.
