Orexo AB Announces Positive Outcome from In-Vivo Study of OX390 Orexo AB (publ.) announced positive data from a pre-clinical in-vivo study on the nasal absorption of atipamezole when delivered with Orexo's AmorphOX drug delivery technology. The study results mark an important milestone in the development of OX390, an emergency treatment to reverse overdoses involving xylazine and medetomidine, alpha-2 agonists often referred to as "Tranq" and "Rhino Tranq", respectively. The study demonstrated rapid and substantial intranasal absorption of atipamezole, successfully establishing proof-of-concept across multiple formulations. The results support that a single nasal dose of OX390 achieves exposure within the targeted therapeutic range. The next milestone in the project is an upcoming type C meeting with the FDA to agree on the non-clinical development plan that will enable human clinical trials. This project has been supported in whole or in part with federal funds from the US Department of Health and Human Services; Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response; Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), under contract number 75A50125C00010. OX390 is designed to reverse respiratory depression associated with adulterated illicit opioid overdoses. Emerging evidence indicates that opioid-induced respiratory suppression (OIRD) may be greatly magnified in the presence of increasingly common adulterants, and that opioid antagonists such as naloxone and nalmefene may not be sufficient to revive victims of these overdoses. OX390 will be developed as a rapidly acting intranasal powder using Orexo's proprietary powder-based drug delivery technology AmorphOX for community-based use by first responders and laypersons. OX390 is an investigational compound, containing atipamezole, and is not approved for human use by the FDA. Orexo's proprietary drug delivery platform, AmorphOX, is a powder made up of particles that are built using a unique combination of a drug, carrier materials and, optionally, other ingredients. The particles are presented as an amorphous composite of the various ingredients providing for excellent chemical and physical stability, as well as rapid dissolution. The technology works for a broad scope of active ingredients and has been validated in several human clinical studies showing rapid and extensive drug exposure. Tillkännagivande • Mar 07

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 4.0% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Negative equity (-kr224m). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 4.0% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (kr223m net loss in 2 years).

Orexo AB (Publ) Announces Positive Pharmacokinetic In-Vivo Data for A Powder-Based Intranasal Semaglutide Formulation Developed with the Amorphox Technology Orexo AB (publ.) announced positive pharmacokinetic in-vivo data for a powder-based intranasal semaglutide formulation developed with the AmorphOX technology. In the in-vivo study, three different formulations of powder semaglutide were administered intranasally. For comparison, Rybelsus®?, a semaglutide tablet, was administered orally, and Wegovy®?, injectable semaglutide, was administered subcutaneously. At the median values, two of the AmorphOX powder formulations had a sevenfold increase in plasma values when compared to the oral tablet, although as expected they had lower values than the injectable. In addition to higher exposure than the oral route, the AmorphOX formulations exhibited lower variability in plasma concentration. The data generated further supports the ability of the AmorphOX technology to formulate large molecules into powders that could be delivered intranasally. An AmorphOX-formulated intranasal semagLutide may provide needle-free delivery with improved convenience, potentially better adherence, and would not require refrigeration. Dosing schedules, depending on intranasal dosage strength and therapeutic levels achieved, may also be extended to require less frequent dosing than the oral route. Tillkännagivande • Apr 10
Orexo Announces Positive In-Vivo Proof-Of-Concept Data for Powder-Based Intranasal Vaccine Formulated with the Amorphox Technology Orexo AB (publ.) announced positive in-vivo proof-of-concept data for a powder-based intranasal vaccine candidate formulated with the AmorphOX technology. The data was generated under the collaboration between Orexo and Abera Biosciences ("Abera") entered in December 2024. The proof-of-concept study was conducted in rats where Abera's influenza vaccine candidate was administered intranasally, either formulated as a liquid nasal solution or as an intranasal powder using Orexo's AmorphOX technology. Both formulations induced strong systemic antibody response in serum (IgG) as well as locally in the nose and lungs (IgA). No difference in immune response was seen between the liquid nasal solution and the intranasal powder. An intranasal influenza vaccine has the potential to easily and effectively help reduce the spread of infections and prevent disease, which could play an important role in a potential future pandemic. Formulating vaccines in powder form using the AmorphOX technology provides the potential to develop cost-efficient, thermostable vaccines with no need for cold chain requirements.

Orexo AB (publ) Announces Positive Topline Results from the Clinical Study OX640-002 Orexo AB (publ.) announced positive topline results from the clinical study OX640-002. The study evaluated the performance in subjects with and without allergic rhinitis when treated with Orexo's nasal rescue medication including powder-based epinephrine, OX640. The study was a cross-over study in 30 subjects assessing absorption and pharmacodynamic effects of epinephrine from two doses of OX640, with one of the doses also administered during ongoing allergic rhinitis symptoms. Exposure was compared to a commercial intramuscular injection. Topline data analysis demonstrates that OX640 treatments achieved mean epinephrine plasma levels associated with clinical efficacy more rapidly than the intramuscular injection, with dose-dependent exposure levels. Absorption under allergic rhinitis conditions was significantly faster than under normal conditions, supporting rapid onset of effect also in patients with significant airway symptoms. OX640 formulations typically produced more pronounced increases in blood pressure and heart rate than the intramuscular injections, which are key effects for treatment of anaphylaxis. Systemic safety was in line with the known pharmacology of epinephrine and local effects were transient and tolerated. There were no severe or serious adverse events. Tillkännagivande • Dec 16

Orexo AB (publ) Initiates New Study of OX640 in Participants with Allergic Rhinitis Orexo AB (publ.) announced the first participants have been dosed with OX640, an intranasal rescue medication for severe allergic reactions (incl. anaphylaxis) with powder-based epinephrine, in a new study in subjects with allergic rhinitis (hay fever). The study will be completed during 2024 with results available early in 2025. Following the positive results from the phase 1 clinical study, OX640-001, where OX640 showed absorption of epinephrine and effects on blood pressure and heart rate equivalent to an epinephrine intramuscular auto-injector, Orexo now advances the development of OX640. In the new study, OX640-002, the epinephrine absorption from OX640 will be investigated in participants with and without allergic symptoms in the nose. As patients may experience allergic symptoms in the nose during anaphylaxis, it is critical to understand the absorption of epinephrine from Orexo's unique powder formulation under these conditions. The study is a cross-over study in 30 participants with allergic rhinitis and involves four treatment periods. In one of the periods, a small dose of an allergen will be sprayed into the nose of the participants to trigger an allergic reaction before being treated with OX640. This will be compared with absorption of epinephrine from OX640 without the allergen, and a commercial intramuscular epinephrine product. The fourth period will be used to document dose proportionality of OX640. In addition to the absorption of epinephrine, effects on blood pressure and heart rate will be measured as relevant parameters to understand the effect of OX640 in case of an anaphylaxis.

Orexo AB (Publ) Announces FDA Acceptance of New Drug Application Filing for OX124 Orexo AB (publ.) announced the New Drug Application (NDA) for OX124 has been accepted for review by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). OX124 is a nasal rescue medication for opioid overdose containing a high dose of naloxone and is the first product based on Orexo's world-classdrug delivery platform, amorphOX. The PDUFA date is set to July 15, 2024, but recent review processes in the category indicate a risk of some delay. OX124 will meet the growing need for more powerful medications to improve the possibility of reviving individuals experiencing an overdose caused by use of synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl, which cause 91% of all fatal opioid overdoses. OX124 is a potent medication and, in combination with rapid absorption and high bioavailability, this makes it capable of reversing an overdose or sustaining consciousness in a patient who has taken synthetic opioids. A MorphOX is an innovative powder-based technology that, in addition to rapid absorption and high bioavailability., improves stability and reduces sensitivity related to temperature changes. For users and lay-people OX124 has the potential to become an efficient and reliable rescue medication independent of temperature variations during storage, for example its efficacy is not affected at freezing temperatures. OX124 is protected by patents until 2039. Driven by the need to increase access to overdose medication, low-dose products, including the market leader, have recently been approved by the FDA as non-prescription over-the-counter (OTC) products. Historically, OTC products in the US have had limited reimbursement from insurance companies and, when applying similar industry analogues going forward, this may provide an advantage to high-dose prescription naloxone products, such as OX124. In addition, high-dose prescription products are expected to benefit from the continued expansion of mandatory co-prescription of naloxone when prescribing opioids to at-risk patients suffering from pain.

Orexo AB (publ) Announces Data from the MODIA Study Evaluating Impact on Use of Illicit Opioids Orexo AB (publ) reported top line results after having completed a study evaluating the efficacy of MODIA in combination with sublingual buprenorphine/naloxone for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD) and reduction in use of illicit opioids. The study had unexpectedly high treatment response rates for both treatment arms, with no statistically significant difference in treatment response in the full population. No adverse events associated with the use of MODIA were reported. An exploratory analysis of patients randomized to MODIA found that those who completed all 24 modules had a significantly higher rate of treatment response than those who did not complete the entire program. A comprehensive Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) approach that combines medications for OUD with psychosocial support is recommended for optimal outcomes. Education of patients with OUD is critical to help them understand their disease, their treatment, and strategies to support their recovery. As a browser-based digital program that can be accessed remotely at any time, MODIA provides flexible access to educational content and exercises that are based on cognitive behavioral therapy principles. The study was a randomized, open-label, parallel-group study, enrolling patients aged 18 to 65 across the US who voluntarily sought treatment for documented moderate to severe OUD. Participants were inducted and stabilized on buprenorphine/naloxone during a brief screening period, then evaluated during weekly visits over the course of 24 weeks, with a primary endpoint defined as the subject having =80 percent of urine drug tests negative for illicit opioids and negative self-reports for illicit opioid use during the final 20 weeks of the study. Patients were randomized to receive weekly medication management i.e., background study care (BSC), or BSC in addition to MODIA. The study enrolled 437 patients at 36 centers across the US. Study completion rates were similar (55% BSC, 52% MODIA), as were treatment response rates (32% BSC, 31% MODIA). There was no statistically significant difference between treatment arms in any pre-specified endpoint of the study. These unexpectedly high treatment response rates exceeded those of similarly designed trials of long-acting injectable buprenorphine, which had 18 and 24 study visits (17% and 29%, respectively). An exploratory analysis of the 219 patients randomized to MODIA who subsequently completed the entire study (n=114), found that the 61 patients that completed all 24 modules of MODIA had a significantly higher treatment response rate of 61% than those that did not complete the entire program (n=53), who had a treatment response rate of 38% (p=0.0146). The difference in treatment response rate emerged after completion of 12 modules. In addition, the study showed indications of improved psychosocial outcome for those who completed MODIA which will be explored further in continued post hoc analysis. MODIA is designed to educate patients on behavioral changes that can support their recovery journey, and to empower them with techniques to help them cope with the challenges of everyday life. To support the patients’ healthy recovery, adherence to the program is important and Orexo will work with the developer of MODIA, GAIA AG to add functionality to MODIA to further improve adherence. In the study 38% of patients reported at least one adverse event. Overall reporting of adverse events was similar between treatment arms, and no adverse events associated with the use MODIA were reported. The company will continue to commercialize MODIA with limited changes as a mobile medical device subject to FDA enforcement discretion following the expected expiration of the COVID Public Health Emergency Guidance in November 2023. Under enforcement discretion MODIA will be positioned as a supportive resource for patients undergoing a clinician-directed treatment, rather than as a physician-prescribed treatment regimen. The study results indicate there is high value in the combination of high frequency interactions with health care providers and completion of the MODIA program, as well as MODIA’s strong safety profile. The company is continuing to analyze the study data and will continue to collect data to show the value of MODIA in supporting the patients with OUD to get their lives back. Tillkännagivande • Oct 05

Orexo AB (publ.) Submits New Drug Application to FDA for OX124, a High-Dose Rescue Medication for Opioid Over Overio Overio Overio Overio Orexo AB (publ.) announced the submission of the New Drug Application (NDA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for OX124, a high-dose rescue medication for opioid overdose with nasal delivery. OX124, is based on Orexo's world-class drug delivery platform amorphOX®? and is designed to reverse the effects of the most powerful synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. The submission is supported by data from the pivotal study in healthy volunteers, OX124-002, where OX124 showed a significantly faster and higher absorption of naloxone compared to intramuscular dosing with an injection reference product. In addition, development formulations of OX124 have in a previous exploratory clinical study (OX124-001) in healthy volunteers, demonstrated a more rapid absorption and higher bioavailability compared with the market leading naloxone rescue medication, even with the same dose as the comparator. OX124 is protected by patents until 2039. If approved OX124 will meet the significant and growing need of more powerful rescue medications improving the possibility to revive individuals who have got an overdose caused by use of synthetic opioids, such as opioid. During the latest 12-month period, ending April 2023, the predicted annual number of fatal overdoses in the US encountered for more than 110.000. The great majority, 76%, refers to opioid overdoses, and of these 91% involved synthetic opioids. The technical issues with the packaging process, which earlier this year gave rise to FDA's request for filing a new NDA, have now been solved in partnership with the contract manufacturer. To ensure the manufacturing process meets the reliability requirements, tests, and qualifications have successfully been conducted at the contract manufacturers site. FDA's review process is expected to take ten to thirteen months. Orexo is planning to initiate the US launch late in second half of 2024 or early 2025. Reported Earnings • Jul 19

Orexo AB (publ) Submits New Drug Application to FDA for OX124, A High-Dose Rescue Medication for Opioid Overdose Orexo AB (publ.) announced the submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its lead pharmaceutical pipeline asset, OX124, a nasal rescue medication for opioid overdose. OX124, is based on Orexo´s drug delivery platform amorphOX® and contains a high-dose of naloxone. The submission is supported by data from the pivotal study in healthy volunteers, OX124-002, where OX124 showed a significantly faster and higher absorption of naloxone compared to intramuscular dosing with an injection reference product. In addition, development formulations of OX124 have in a previous exploratory clinical study (OX124-001) in healthy volunteers, demonstrated a more rapid absorption and higher bioavailability compared with the market leading naloxone rescue medication, even with the same dose as the comparator. OX124 is protected by patents until 2039. Opioid overdose is a life-threatening condition, characterized by loss of consciousness and respiratory depression. Opioid overdoses can be treated with the opioid antagonist naloxone. During the 12-month period ending August 2022, the predicted annual number of fatal opioid overdoses in the US exceeded 81,000. Nine out of ten opioid overdose deaths involved synthetic opioids, including fentanyl. The switch to highly potent synthetic opioids has led to more severe overdoses, prompting the need for high-dose naloxone products. Reported Earnings • Jan 27

Orexo AB (Publ.) Announces Successfully Initiated the First Explorative Human Clinical Study for Ox640 Orexo AB (publ.) announced it has successfully initiated the first explorative human clinical study for OX640. The study aims to determine the relative bioavailability and absorption characteristics of investigational OX640 formulations versus an intramuscular adrenaline injection in healthy volunteers. Adrenaline is commonly used for the emergency treatment of allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. First line treatments are intramuscular auto-injector products. Since adrenaline is a very sensitive active ingredient that easily undergoes degradation, currently marketed injection products all contain antioxidant chemical additives to help reduce degradation. Despite these additives, and that these products require strictly controlled handling and storage, they still suffer from having limited shelf-life . Orexo’s OX640 product is a nasal adrenaline formulation based on its proprietary drug delivery platform amorphOX. Stability data generated so far for OX640 strongly indicates the potential for an adrenaline product with significantly improved stability versus today’s injection products, both in terms of allowed storage temperatures as well as shelf-life. These encouraging data has been obtained without the addition of any antioxidants. In addition to offering allergic patients with a product that provides greater flexibility in terms of handling and storage, OX640 provides a less bulky, more convenient and needle-free alternative to auto-injectors.

Orexo AB (Publ.) Develops Nasal Adrenaline Medication Based on the Novel Amorphox Platform Orexo AB (publ.), announces it has initiated a new pharmaceutical development project, OX640, a nasal adrenaline product for the emergency treatment of allergic reactions. Adrenaline is commonly used for the emergency treatment of allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, which is a global and growing health problem. The market size exceed USD 2 billion and is expected to show continuous strong growth in the coming years. The market is currently dominated by the use of auto-injectors for intramuscular or subcutaneous administration of injection solutions of adrenaline, although new delivery alternatives are under development. Adrenaline is a very unstable active ingredient sensitive to chemical degradation, which is the reason why commercial adrenaline products have limited shelf-life with restrictive storage conditions. OX640 is based on Orexo's proprietary drug delivery platform amorphOXTM, and shows promising chemical and physical stability data. In addition to providing allergic patients with a more convenient, needle-free alternative to auto-injectors currently on the market, an adrenaline product that provides greater flexibility in relation to how it can be handled and stored should provide significant benefits to patients and healthcare systems, ensuring the correct adrenaline dose is available when needed. Orexo has consulted with the US Food & Drug Administration on the development of OX640 and on the basis of their feedback outlined a development pathway. Orexo is currently optimizing the OX640 formulation and expects to perform a first explorative human clinical pharmacokinetic study in the second half of 2022. The results of the study are decisive for the final development plan and timeline. Furthermore, Orexo will be able to leverage investments and learnings made from the OX124 and OX125 projects (overdose rescue medications) in the continued development and future commercial manufacturing of OX640. Orexo will consider the right partnership strategy for the product, but will explore opportunities for development- and commercialization partnerships during 2022. Tillkännagivande • Nov 27
Orexo AB Provides Information About Its New Proprietary Drug Delivery Platform - Amorphox Orexo AB provides information about its new proprietary drug delivery platform, amorphOXTM, a novel and inventive powder-based technology with significant potential. Several new patent applications directed to amorphOXTM have now been filed, which should serve to protect the technology until 2042. The amorphOXTM powder technology is made up of particles which are built using a unique combination of a drug, carrier materials and, optionally, other ingredients. The particles are presented as an amorphous composite of the various ingredients providing for excellent chemical and physical stability, commonly a significant problem with amorphous drug compositions. Significantly, the amorphOXTM platform has been shown to work for a broad scope of different active ingredients enabling drug development in many different fields. Drug products using amorphOXTM display nearly instant dissolution even in very limited amounts of liquids, making it an ideal choice for the development of drugs targeting administration sites such as the nasal and sublingual cavities. Rapid dissolution of drug products provides for important opportunities when, for example, developing drugs requiring a rapid onset of action. The amorphOXTM platform has been validated in various in vivo studies, including human clinical trials, demonstrating rapid and extensive absorption of various drugs. The platform is well-tolerated and shows a low degree of inter-patient variability. Orexo's first product based on the amorphOXTM platform, OX124 - an overdose rescue medication - has been shown to provide superior pharmacokinetic properties compared to the market leading liquid-based nasal spray product. The commercial supply chain established for OX124 will help shorten timelines and reduce risk of future products based on nasal delivery. Reported Earnings • Nov 04

Orexo AB (Publ) Pharmaceutical Pipeline Asset Ox124 Enters Pivotal Trial Orexo AB (publ.) announced that the company has successfully initiated the pivotal trial (OX124-002) for its lead pharmaceutical pipeline asset, OX124. The first cohort of healthy volunteers has been dosed on July 15, 2021. OX124 is a powerful naloxone rescue medication, designed to reverse opioid overdoses, including those from highly potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. To meet the target profile for more potent rescue medications, the company has developed a novel and unique intranasal formulation technology that allows for rapid and efficient delivery of active ingredients through the intranasal route. The use of synthetic opioids is the leading cause of death in fatal overdoses in the US, a trend that has seen further acceleration in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. For the full year of 2020, the number of overdose deaths surpassed 92,000 for the first time in history, an increase of 30% versus the previous year. Approximately 75% of these deaths were caused by opioids, and within the opioid-related deaths, synthetic opioids accounted for the vast majority, underlining the need for more powerful and faster-acting rescue medications. The pivotal trial OX124-002 is a 4-period cross-over, comparative bioavailability study in healthy volunteers, comparing two dose regimens of OX124 to two dose regimens of an injection reference product. The study is intended to be the primary support for the OX124 New Drug Application in the US. Initial study results are expected in Fourth Quarter 2021, and if successful, the company is expecting to file OX124 with the US Food and Drug Administration in the second half of 2022. In a previous exploratory clinical study (OX124-001) in healthy volunteers, OX124 showed more rapid absorption, substantially higher plasma concentrations of naloxone, and sustained duration of elevated plasma concentrations when compared to the current market leader. The addressable market for OX124 is large and growing as demand for easy to use, potent overdose reversal medication increases, not only for emergency staff and first responders, but also for opioid dependent patients, and as co-prescription for high-dose opioid pain patients. According to the company's estimates, greater levels of co-prescriptions and expanding access for opioid dependent patients may increase the market size from today's USD 300 - 500 million to USD 1.5 - 2 billion. If the project progresses according to the current plan, the US launch can take place in 2023. If approved, OX124 is estimated to have a sales potential of USD 70 - USD 110 million.
