NEW YORK, May 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Axsome Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: AXSM), a biopharmaceutical company leading a new era in the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2025 and provided a general business update.
“The first quarter was strong and eventful, with the approval of SYMBRAVO for the acute treatment of migraine, continued growth of AUVELITY and SUNOSI, and significant advancements across our broad late-stage neuroscience pipeline,” said Herriot Tabuteau, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Axsome Therapeutics. “Commercial availability of SYMBRAVO is on track for this June, and preparations are underway to enable a successful launch. We have submitted our NDA for AXS-14 for the management of fibromyalgia, and are on track for our planned NDA submissions this year for AXS-05 in Alzheimer’s disease agitation and for AXS-12 in cataplexy in patients with narcolepsy. Our development programs with solriamfetol continue to advance, with the recently announced Phase 3 topline results in ADHD and MDD, and progress across the Phase 3 trials in binge eating disorder and excessive sleepiness associated with shift work disorder. Overall, our neuroscience portfolio positions us to deliver potentially five marketed products across ten indications that collectively impact over 150 million patients in the U.S. alone. We look forward to continued momentum over the balance of 2025 as we execute on our mission to deliver transformative medicines to patients living with serious CNS conditions.”

AXS-05
AXS-05 (dextromethorphan-bupropion) is Axsome’s novel, oral, investigational N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist, sigma-1 agonist, and aminoketone CYP2D6 inhibitor being developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) agitation and smoking cessation. AXS-05 has been granted FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for AD agitation.
Solriamfetol
Solriamfetol is Axsome’s dopamine and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (DNRI), TAAR1 agonist, and 5-HT1A agonist being developed for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), major depressive disorder (MDD) with EDS, binge eating disorder (BED), and excessive sleepiness associated with shift work disorder (SWD).
SYMBRAVO
SYMBRAVO (MoSEIC™ meloxicam-rizatriptan) is Axsome’s novel, oral, rapidly absorbed, multi-mechanistic, selective COX-2 inhibitor and 5-HT1B/1D agonist indicated for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura in adults.
AXS-12
AXS-12 (reboxetine) is Axsome’s novel, oral, investigational, highly selective and potent norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor and cortical dopamine modulator being developed for the treatment of narcolepsy. AXS-12 has been granted FDA Orphan Drug designation for narcolepsy.
