Relmada Therapeutics Inc (RLMD) (Q2 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: Strong Phase 2 Data and FDA ...
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Release Date: August 06, 2026 For the complete transcript of the earnings call, please refer to the full earnings call transcript. Relmada Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:RLMD) reported strong phase 2 data for NDVO1, with 95% of patients achieving a complete response at any time and 76% having a durable complete response at 12 months. The company has a strong balance sheet with $217.7 million in cash, expected to fund operations through 2029, including the completion of the phase 3 program for NDVO1. Relmada Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:RLMD) has FDA alignment on two planned registrational pathways for NDVO1, de-risking the regulatory path forward. The company has a clear plan to file INDs for both NDVO1 and sopranolol by the end of 2026, with clinical trial sites already engaged and prepared to enroll patients. The addition of a new Chief Business Officer with nearly three decades of experience in uro-oncology, including leading the US launch of the first FDA-approved intravesical gene therapy for NMIBC, strengthens the team's commercial and development expertise. Relmada Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:RLMD) has delayed the NDVO1 IND filing from mid-2026 to the end of 2026 due to manufacturing scale-up challenges, including scheduling with GMP manufacturing partners. The company has not yet decided on the timing or format of initial phase 3 clinical data disclosure, with the 3-month complete response data potentially pushed into the first half of 2027. Manufacturing for NDVO1 remains the final and critical gating factor, with the company needing to complete GMP batch production and stability data before filing the IND. Relmada Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:RLMD) has not yet reviewed the 18-month phase 2 data, as management has been entirely focused on phase 3 preparation, leaving a potential data gap for investors. The company's net loss increased to $12.9 million in Q2 2026 from $9.9 million in Q2 2025, driven by higher R&D and manufacturing costs. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 2 Warning Signs with RLMD.

Is RLMD fairly valued? Test your thesis with our free DCF calculator. Q: Can you provide more color on the gating factors for the manufacturing and CMC activities for NDV01? Is it an issue with the release of the chemo from the gel, scaling, consistency, or stability? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) and Bipin Dalmia (Chief Business Officer) clarified that the formulation and process have been locked. The remaining work is purely manufacturing executionproducing GMP batches at a scalable quantity with an external partner. The development activities are complete; the next focus is getting on the manufacturer's schedule and producing the batches needed for the IND filing. Q: Do you need FDA input on the GMP manufacturing batch prior to filing the IND? A: Bipin Dalmia (Chief Business Officer) stated that no additional FDA input is needed before filing the IND. The company already has minutes from prior FDA meetings on development, so they will proceed directly to filing. Q: How many sites are planned for the Phase 3 trial, and how quickly can you go from IND clearance to first patient dose? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) confirmed that approximately 80 sites are enrolled, with 60 primary and 20 backup sites. Once the IND is cleared (30 days after filing), the company can begin enrolling patients almost immediately, as all other components are ready. Q: Do you have plans to disclose the 18-month data cut from the Phase 2 study later this year? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) noted that the company has been entirely focused on Phase 3 preparation and has not yet reviewed the 18-month data. While they will likely publish it at some point, there is no specific plan or timeline for disclosure at this time. Q: What steps or tasks took longer than expected for the NDV01 IND, given the initial guidance for mid-2026? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) explained that nothing was unexpected, but manufacturing timelines are inherently uncertain. The biggest hurdle is securing a slot on the GMP manufacturer's schedule, which can take one to three months. The actual manufacturing process itself takes only about two days, but scheduling is the bottleneck. Q: Should we expect the initial 3-month CR data from the Phase 3 trial in the first half of 2027, or are you reevaluating the initial disclosures? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) indicated that the company has not yet decided on the disclosure timeline. They prefer to wait until a meaningful number of patients (likely 15-20) have data, as results from only 4-5 patients would not be significant. Additionally, the 6-month data may be more representative than 3-month data, given that retreatment is allowed after 3 months for non-responders. Q: Does the induction count towards the primary CR endpoint, or is it captured as a secondary endpoint, given that clinicaltrials.gov allows one reinduction after disease recurrence? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) clarified that the primary endpoint is "response at any time." Patients can have one reinduction if needed, and the highest response rate observed during the trial is what matters for the primary endpoint. Q: Is there any read-through from the FDA Adcom on the Reprimune product to your second-line development for NDV01? A: Sergio Traversa (CEO) declined to comment on other companies' outcomes, noting it would be imprudent. He added that in their meetings with the FDA, there is no fixed number for the expected response rate; the FDA wants to see overall data on response rate and durability, which is different from other comparisons.

Relmada Therapeutics Q2 Earnings Call Highlights
Interested in Relmada Therapeutics, Inc.? Here are five stocks we like better. NDV-01 manufacturing is Relmada’s immediate priority as it targets an investigational new drug application (IND) filing by the end of 2026, followed by a Phase III registrational study for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. The company has completed formulation and process development, with GMP production and stability data remaining. Relmada reported encouraging Phase II results for NDV-01, including a 95% complete response rate at any time and a 76% durable complete response rate at 12 months. The sustained-release gemcitabine/docetaxel formulation is intended to provide prolonged bladder exposure through a brief, office-based administration. The company also expects to file an IND for sepranolone in Prader-Willi syndrome by year-end 2026. Relmada ended Q2 with $217.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, which management expects will fund operations through 2029, including the NDV-01 Phase III program. Relmada Therapeutics (NASDAQ:RLMD) said it is prioritizing manufacturing activities for NDV-01, its sustained-release intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, as it targets an investigational new drug application filing by the end of 2026. Chief Executive Officer Sergio Traversa said the company has entered a “critical execution phase,” with manufacturing representing the remaining major step before the planned registrational program can begin. Relmada expects to initiate its Phase III rescue registrational study after the IND is cleared. → Meta’s Earnings Drop Shows Wall Street Wants More Than Ad Growth NDV-01 is designed to provide sustained delivery of the chemotherapy combination gemcitabine and docetaxel, or gem/doce, in a single intravesical formulation. Traversa said the program builds on the established safety and efficacy experience of conventional gem/doce, while seeking to offer prolonged bladder exposure without a physical device.

Traversa said the formulation and process have been locked, with the remaining work centered on producing GMP batches and generating stability data needed to support the IND filing. “Manufacturing is the final piece,” Traversa said. “We are confident in our plan and in our team.” → Sandisk Just Delivered a Blowout Quarter—Here's Why the Stock Is Falling During the question-and-answer session, Traversa said the company is working with Piramal as its manufacturing partner. He noted that the product itself can be made in roughly two days, but obtaining a production slot with an external manufacturer can take months because of scheduling requirements. Chief Business Officer Bipin Dalmia said development work on the formulation, scalable process and analytical program has been completed. “The development activities are complete,” Dalmia said. “The manufacturing activities are our next focus.” Dalmia added that Relmada does not expect to require further FDA input before filing the NDV-01 IND. Once the IND is filed and cleared, Traversa said the company could begin enrolling patients quickly. Relmada has approximately 80 trial sites lined up, including about 60 primary sites and 20 backup sites, according to Traversa. The company said it expects the IND review period to be 30 days and that trial sites are otherwise prepared to begin enrollment once clinical material becomes available. Dalmia, who joined Relmada during the quarter, said his responsibilities will include corporate strategy, commercial planning, new product planning and potential business development for NDV-01. He also said he will be closely involved in the program’s development and manufacturing activities. He said the non-muscle invasive bladder cancer market is evolving, particularly for patients with BCG-unresponsive disease, where preserving the bladder is increasingly a treatment objective. Dalmia said physicians and patients face trade-offs among efficacy, durability, safety, tolerability and convenience with currently available and emerging therapies. According to Dalmia, NDV-01 could potentially differentiate itself through its use of a chemotherapy combination familiar to urologists, its sustained-release delivery approach and an office-based administration procedure that can be completed in approximately five minutes. Relmada believes the therapy could have applicability across much of the NMIBC population, including potential future settings such as intermediate-risk and BCG-naïve disease, if approved. The company has not set a specific timetable for disclosing 18-month data from its Phase II NDV-01 study. Traversa said Relmada’s focus has been on preparing for the registrational program, though the company may publish the longer-term data at some point. For the planned Phase III study, he said Relmada has not finalized its approach to early clinical disclosures. The company had previously discussed reporting a three-month complete-response analysis, but Traversa said it may wait until it has data from approximately 15 to 20 patients. He also said six-month results may be more meaningful because patients who do not respond after three months may receive reinduction treatment. Relmada also plans to file an IND by year-end for sepranolone, its program for Prader-Willi syndrome, a rare condition the company estimates affects 350,000 to 400,000 people globally. Traversa said formulation development for sepranolone has been completed, with finalization of its prefilled-syringe delivery system remaining. The company expects to begin a Phase II proof-of-concept study after IND clearance. Relmada ended the second quarter with $217.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, up from $93 million at Dec. 31, 2025. Chief Financial Officer Maged Shenouda said the company expects its current cash resources to support operations through 2029, including completion of the Phase III rescue program for NDV-01. Research and development expense was $8.4 million, compared with $2.8 million in the prior-year quarter, primarily reflecting higher NDV-01 and sepranolone study costs as well as increased manufacturing and drug-storage costs. General and administrative expense was $6.6 million, down from $7.4 million a year earlier, driven by lower stock-based and employee compensation, partly offset by higher stock appreciation rights expense and consulting costs. Net cash used in operating activities was $9.6 million, compared with $6.4 million in the second quarter of 2025. Net loss was $12.9 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared with a loss of $9.9 million, or $0.30 per share, in the prior-year period. Traversa said the company’s near-term priorities are completing NDV-01 manufacturing work and filing INDs for both NDV-01 and sepranolone by the end of 2026. Relmada Therapeutics, Inc is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel therapies for pain and other central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The company applies a proprietary stereochemical approach to optimized drug candidates, aiming to improve safety, tolerability and efficacy profiles compared with existing treatments.

Sepranolone: Formulation development for sepranolone is complete, and the Company is finalizing the pre-filled syringe delivery system. This is the remaining step ahead of the sepranolone IND submission, which is expected by year-end 2026. The company expects to initiate the Phase 2 proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi Syndrome following IND clearance. Corporate Update During the quarter, Relmada strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of Bipin Dalmia, PhD, MBA, as Chief Business Officer. He brings nearly three decades of biopharmaceutical leadership experience spanning business development, portfolio strategy, commercial planning, and uro-oncology, including leadership of the U.S. launch, indication expansion, global commercialization, and long-term manufacturing strategy for the first FDA-approved intravesical gene therapy for NMIBC. “Since joining Relmada, I have become increasingly convinced that NDV-01 represents one of the most compelling opportunities in NMIBC,” said Bipin Dalmia, Chief Business Officer of Relmada Therapeutics. “As the NMIBC treatment landscape continues to evolve, patients and physicians are seeking therapies that deliver meaningful efficacy and durability without compromising convenience, tolerability, or ease of use. As we advance toward registrational development, NDV-01’s highly differentiated profile and potential applicability across multiple patient populations position it to become a foundational and best-in-class intravesical therapy across the NMIBC disease spectrum.” Expected Upcoming Relmada Milestones: NDV-01: NDV-01 United States IND filing – By YE26 NDV-01 Phase 3 RESCUE program initiation – Upon IND Clearance Sepranolone: Sepranolone United States IND filing – By YE26 Sepranolone Phase 2 initiation in Prader-Willi Syndrome – Upon IND Clearance Financial Results Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $8.4 million, compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $5.6 million. The increase was primarily attributable to higher NDV-01 and sepranolone study costs and increased manufacturing and drug storage costs, partially offset by lower employee compensation. General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $6.6 million compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $0.8 million. The decrease was primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation and lower employee compensation, partially offset by higher stock appreciation rights expense and consulting services. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $9.6 million compared to $6.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $12.9 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $9.9 million, or $0.30 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments balance were $217.7 million, compared to cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $93.0 million at December 31, 2025. The Company’s current cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of June 30, 2026, are expected to provide sufficient resources to fund Company operations through 2029, including completion of the Phase 3 NDV-01 RESCUE program. The Company had 106,669,846 shares outstanding, as of August 4, 2026 Conference Call and Webcast Information:Relmada will host a conference call and webcast today at 4:30 PM ET to discuss recent business progress and financial results. Conference Call and Webcast Information: Date: Thursday, August 6, 2026 at 4:30 PM ET Participant Dial-in (US): 1-800-717-1738 Participant Dial-in (International): 1-646-307-1865 Webcast Access: Click Here A replay of the webcast will be available in the Investors section of the Relmada website at https://ir.relmada.com/investors/events/. About NDV-01 NDV-01 is a novel, sustained-release, intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel (Gem/Doce) being developed for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The formulation is engineered to provide prolonged bladder retention and sustained drug release over approximately 10 days. By forming a soft intravesical matrix, NDV-01 is designed to increase local drug exposure while limiting systemic toxicity. The treatment can be administered conveniently in an office setting in under 5 minutes without the need for anesthesia or specialized equipment. NDV-01 is encompassed by multiple patent applications that if issued, could provide protection until 2047. About the NDV-01 Phase 3 RESCUE Registrational Pathways: Relmada has received written FDA feedback confirming alignment on two registrational development pathways for NDV-01, including study design, patient populations, and primary endpoints. The Company expects to submit an IND by year-end 2026 and initiate the Phase 3 RESCUE program upon IND clearance. About NMIBC NMIBC represents 75-80% of all bladder cancer cases and is associated with high recurrence rates (50 – 80% over 5 years) and disease progression in a subset of these patients. With over 744,000 prevalent cases in the U.S. and limited treatment options, the market opportunity is significant. High-risk BCG-unresponsive disease represents the biggest unmet need in NMIBC, with limited and suboptimal bladder-sparing treatment options. Intermediate-risk NMIBC in the adjuvant setting has no currently approved therapies and patients with recurrence must undergo repeated surgical resections. NDV-01 has the potential to serve as a foundational frontline or salvage therapy across the NMIBC disease spectrum. About Sepranolone and GABA Modulation Sepranolone, a synthetic isoallopregnanolone, selectively modulates GABAA receptors by antagonizing allopregnanolone (ALLO), without disrupting GABA signaling. It targets disorders linked to excess GABAergic activity such as Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), Tourette Syndrome, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). More than 335 patients have been treated with sepranolone in clinical trials to date, with an excellent safety profile. The Company expects to submit an IND by year-end 2026 and initiate the Phase 2 study in Prader-Willi syndrome upon IND clearance. About Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) PWS is a rare genetic disorder caused by chromosomal deletions on chromosome 15, leading to neurodevelopmental and behavioral complications. Global prevalence is estimated to be 350,000-400,000 patients. Current treatments address symptoms but do not modify the underlying neurobehavioral pathology. About Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. Relmada Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing transformative therapies for oncology and central nervous system conditions. Its lead candidates, NDV-01 and sepranolone, are advancing through clinical development with the potential to address significant unmet needs.

Thank you, Joyce. Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to the Relmada second quarter 2026 conference call. Relmada has entered a critical execution phase. We have a strong balance sheet, an experienced and strengthened leadership team, and a clear plan to move NDV-01 into registrational development. I would like to use this time today to tell you where we stand and why we are confident in the path ahead. Let me start with a brief recap. NDV-01 is a novel, sustained-release, intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel, or gem/doce, that builds on the well-established safety and efficacy profile of conventional Gem/Doce. We believe NDV-01 has the potential to be a best-in-class therapy for patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, or NMIBC, a disease affecting more than 744,000 people in the United States alone. Our clinical and regulatory foundation is strong. The 12 months phase II data are compelling.
95% of patients achieved a complete response at any time, 76% had a durable complete response at 12 months, and safety has been favorable throughout. We have FDA alignment on the two planned registrational pathways. We continue to see strong interest from the uro-oncology community. Let me go directly to manufacturing because it is our immediate priority. NDV-01 is a novel sustained-release therapy that combines two chemotherapies in a single delivery system. Manufacturing a product like this to scalable and registrational standards is demanding work. It requires a specialized capability, coordination across several supply chain partners, and scale-up from a laboratory prototype to a full good manufacturing practice, or GMP, production. We have done the work to understand what that requires. We also have planned the remaining activities needed to support the IND. We are executing against a clear plan to complete them.
This is work driven to quality, and we are dedicated to getting it done right. Importantly, all the components around manufacturing are ready. We have FDA alignment, a robust data set, and clinical trial sites that are engaged and prepared to begin enrolling patients as soon as the IND is cleared and clinical material is available. Manufacturing is the final piece, and we are confident in our plan and in our team. We plan to file the IND NDV-01 by year-end of 2026 and to initiate the phase III rescue registrational program upon IND clearance. The same discipline applies to sepranolone, our program in Prader-Willi syndrome, or PWS, a rare and underserved condition estimated to affect 350,000-400,000 people worldwide. Here, the formulation development is complete, and the one remaining step is finalizing the prefilled syringe delivery system.
We expect to file the sepranolone IND by year-end 2026 as well, and to initiate phase II proof of concept study upon an IND clearance. On both programs, we have characterized what is required, we have a clear plan in place, and we are executing on it. Before we turn to our financial results, I would like to have the privilege to introduce Bipin Dalmia, our new Chief Business Officer. Bipin joined us this quarter and brings nearly three decades of experience in uro-oncology, business development, and manufacturing oversight, including leading the U.S. launch of the first FDA-approved intravesical gene therapy for NMIBC. Bipin also brings strong industry relationship and an outstanding track record of value creation. Bipin, it's all on you.
Thank you, Sergio. Good afternoon, everyone. As Sergio mentioned, I've spent nearly three decades in biopharmaceuticals, including many years focused on uro-oncology, and especially non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, or NMIBC. During my first two weeks with the company, I've spent considerable time reviewing NDV-01's clinical, regulatory, and manufacturing plans, as well as our patent strategy. That work has only strengthened my belief that NDV-01 represents one of the most compelling opportunities in NMIBC. Let me explain why. The NMIBC treatment landscape is evolving rapidly, particularly in BCG-unresponsive disease, where bladder preservation is increasingly the primary goal of treatment. Yet patients and physicians are still forced to make important trade-offs. The newer therapies available today may deliver on one dimension, either efficacy or durability or convenience, but in each case, at the expense of another important dimension.
Our market research and KOL discussions suggest that what physicians and patients continue to need is an intravesical therapy that delivers meaningful efficacy and durable responses without compromising safety, tolerability, convenience, or ease of use. These trade-offs will become even more important as the market moves into the community setting, where majority of the patients are, and into earlier stages of NMIBC, such as intermediate risk and BCG-naïve settings. That is where we believe NDV-01 has the potential to differentiate itself. What I find particularly compelling about NDV-01 is that we're building on a strong clinical foundation rather than starting from scratch. We're leveraging decades of published clinical experience with gemcitabine and docetaxel, a combination that is deeply familiar to the urology community.
Our innovation is not in changing those therapies, but in finding a better way to deliver them through a sustained-release formulation that combines prolonged bladder exposure without the use of a physical device, with a simple office-based procedure that can be completed in approximately five minutes. In summary, the combination of a well-established therapeutic foundation, encouraging efficacy and durability results from our phase II study, favorable safety and tolerability, practical ease of use, and applicability across most NMIBC patient populations differentiates NDV-01 from many current and emerging approaches in the field, combined with a clear FDA-agreed regulatory path and strong patent protection. Taken together, these attributes support our belief that NDV-01, if approved, has the potential to become a foundational and best-in-class intravesical therapy across the NMIBC disease spectrum. I joined Relmada because I believe in that potential and in this team's ability to execute.
While important work remains ahead, the path forward is well-defined. We have an experienced team and strong external partners focused on executing against a clear plan and well-defined near-term milestones. I'm excited to be part of Relmada at this important stage and look forward to helping advance NDV-01 for patients who need new treatment options. With that, I'll turn the call over to Maged. Maged?
Thank you, Bipin. Good afternoon, everyone. I'll walk you through our second quarter 2026 financial results. Our press release and 10-Q filings provide the full details. Relmada closed the second quarter of 2026 with cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $217.7 million, compared to $93 million on December 31, 2025. Our current cash resources are expected to fund company operations through 2029, including completion of the phase III rescue program for NDV-01. Moving briefly through our second quarter financial results. Research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $8.4 million, compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to higher NDV-01 and sepranolone study costs and increased manufacturing and drug storage costs, partially offset by lower employee compensation.
General and administrative expense for the same period totaled $6.6 million, compared to $7.4 million for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation and lower employee compensation, partially offset by higher stock appreciation rights expense and consulting services. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $9.6 million, compared to $6.4 million for the same period in 2025. The net loss for the quarter was $12.9 million, or $0.11 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $9.9 million, or $0.30 per basic and diluted share for the second quarter of 2025. Before we open the call for questions, I'll turn back to Sergio for some closing comments. Sergio?
Thank you, Maged. I believe we can open the call for questions. Before we do that, let me close on this. Relmada is in a position of strength. We have a differentiated, clinically validated asset in NDV-01 with FDA alignment on our path to registration, a phase III program that is ready to enroll, and the capital to see this work through. Our focus now is execution, completing the manufacturing work to the highest standard and filing both the NDV-01 and sepranolone INDs by year-end. We know what is in front of us, we have a clear plan, and we have the team and the resources to deliver. I'm very confident in this program and optimistic about Relmada's future. I look forward to keeping you close to our progress along the way. Operator, I would like now to open the call for questions. Thank you.
Thank you. As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. Our first question comes from the line of Uy Ear of Mizuho. Please go ahead.
Hi, guys. Thanks for holding this call. I guess, we just have a couple of questions from reading your press release. Before I ask the questions, I also want to welcome Bipin to Relmada, and hope to work with you in the future. Maybe a general question for Bipin first. Maybe just help us understand what your role at Relmada, and how do you envision bringing NDV-01, essentially from this stage up to commercialization? The second question is, based on your press release, it seems that you indicated manufacturing as well as CMC activities. Maybe just help us get some more color on the gating factors for both of these items. Is there issues with the release of the chemo from the gel? Is it scaling? Is it just consistency, stability? Maybe just help us get a flavor. Thank you.
Sure. Thank you, Uy. Maybe, Bipin, you want to take the first one? All of us can take the second one.
Yeah. Sergio. Thank you, Uy. I also look forward to working with you. My role as Chief Business Officer and primarily responsible for the NDV-01 program will be corporate strategy, commercial planning, which includes new product planning, making sure our program maximize the potential of NDV-01, business development, if and when that becomes relevant. I also bring a lot of development in manufacturing experience, in addition to commercial. I will be very closely involved in all aspects of NDV-01.
Thanks, Bipin.
Thank you.
I hope, Uy, this answers your first question. The second one, I can start, right? Look, manufacturing is always like, you can go as much in detail as we want to. But the top-down is that the formulation has been locked, the process has been locked. Now is the question of getting into the, what I say, the schedule of the manufacturer. Our manufacturer is Piramal. That is pretty large company. To get on their schedule and make the product, then that would be made at the scalable quantity. That's where we are with manufacturing. That's where we are. Bipin, you want to add something to the topic, the subject?
Yeah, no. Absolutely, I think, Sergio. We have the formulation, which is the same as the formulation we used in phase II. We of course, have a new scalable process, and that is locked now. The remaining active, we have analytics in place, so the analytical program is complete. Now it's just a matter of blocking and tackling, and producing the GMP batches and putting them on stability needed for IND filing. That's where we are. It's just a matter of execution now.
You're saying that it's primarily an engineering issue that you can resolve relatively quickly. Is that a way of summarizing it?
Yeah. I wouldn't call it.
Yeah. Sergio, I can take-- Yeah.
Yeah, take it. Go ahead, Bipin.
Yeah. In manufacturing, you have to develop a formulation. You have to develop a process, that's the development activities. Then you have the manufacturing activities. The development activities are complete. The manufacturing activities are our next focus, and that takes some time because you have to get on the schedule of the GMP clean room. We're working with an external partner for that. Then once you've manufactured the GMP batch, you need some degree of stability data needed to file in the IND. I wouldn't call it an engineering or a non-engineering problem. The way to think about it is development is complete, and now manufacturing is what we will do in the coming months.
Thank you, Bipin.
Super helpful. Thanks.
Okay, our next question comes from Farzin Haque of Jefferies. Please go ahead.
Hi. Thank you for taking my question. Just to follow up on the last one, do you need FDA input once you have the manufacturing batch GMP ready prior to filing?
Yeah. Thank you, Farzin. Bipin, do you want to take this? I don't believe so. We already had the minutes from the meetings we had with the FDA on the development. We'll just file the IND, Bipin, you are more expert, so you can?
No, I don't believe we need any FDA input before filing the IND.
Got it. How many sites are being planned. Basically, how quickly can you go from the IND clearance to the first patient dosed?
Thank you, Farzin. That's a great question. It's also easy to answer. We have around, I believe, 80 sites enrolled, of which 60 are primary and 20 are more backup to speed up the enrollment. I believe as soon as the IND is clear, there will be 30 days after we file it. Technically, we can start to enroll patient at any time. Everything else is pretty much good to go. We are waiting for the product to be delivered. The data on the product to be delivered to file the IND, and 30 days later, hopefully, we'll be okay for clearing. We can start to enroll pretty much right after the IND is cleared.
Got it. A quick follow-up. Do you have any plans to disclose the 18 months cut from the phase II data later this year?
It's a great question. Yes. To be honest, we haven't focused on the phase II. The site in Israel has continued to enroll patients. We have been totally focused on the phase III preparation. We'll probably, yes, we'll publish the 18-months data at some point, we don't have specific plan to do it. We have not seen the data after the 12 months. At some point, we'll probably publish that. The focus has been the registration more than anything else.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, Farzin.
Your next question comes from Kelsey Goodwin of Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.
Oh, great. Hey, thanks for taking our questions. First, just to circle back, on the NDV-01 IND, I guess, what steps or tasks required took longer than you were expecting when you had initially guided to mid-2026? Secondly, I know you had initially guided to some clinical data later this year, that three-month CR look. Should we expect that in the first half now, or are you maybe reevaluating what the initial disclosure's going to look like? That's it for me. Thank you.
Hey, Kelsey. Good afternoon. Great to hear from you. These are actually two different questions, right? Require two different answers. One, what was unexpected. Well, when we made the initial projection, it's like we kind of listened to the manufacturer. That was the best educated guess to give a timeline. I don't think, and Bipin and Maged, you have been involved too in the manufacture. There was really nothing unexpected. It's just everything in manufacturing, until you have done and you are to the final, you never know. It's a trial and error. There was just a question, I would say, probably the biggest hurdle is always to get into the manufacturing schedule. It's not that you call and they put the product in manufacturing right away. Usually, there is at least one or two or three months where they give you a slot.
To make the product, it takes technically two days. It's not a lot of time, but you have to get in their schedule. They have other clients and that. That was not unexpected, but it's still something that we have to get done. That's where we are. The second question was... Remind me, what's the-
Yeah, the initial clinical data that was guided for the end of the year, the three-month CR data. Will that be pushed into the first half of 2027, or are you thinking about maybe just doing a different disclosure altogether?
Yeah. Look, we haven't decided yet. We've been hearing different opinion from all the people that are helping us on doing this. The current tendency, yes, it would be, I would say, first half. But the current trend or what we think is that we would like to have a certain number of patients, not to publish data on five patients, right? To have a certain number of patient and make it relevant. I don't know what the number is, but it's probably 15-20 patients, so that it's significant. Four or five patient don't really mean anything, or not much. The second one, the three months, they may not be that representative for. The retreatment is allowed after three months. If a patient doesn't respond after three months, can be retreated.
Probably the six months is a lot more meaningful in term of showing what the real results are. We haven't decided yet. The focus really to file the IND to get the trial started, we can think about the data. It's an open label, one arm, we can see the data. Hope I answer your question.
Yeah, that's perfect. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Kelsey.
As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one. All right, we have another question from Farzin Haque of Jefferies. Please go ahead.
Thank you for taking the follow-up. Just to clarify in your last comment, the clinicaltrials.gov allows one reinduction after disease recurrence.
Correct.
Does the reinduction count towards the primary CR endpoint, or is it captured as a secondary?
Well, thanks for the question. It give me a chance to clarify. The primary endpoint is a response at any time. The six months is any time, but it is the high response during the trial.
The patients can have one reinduction if needed?
Correct.
Okay. Got it. Thank you.
If they don't respond at three months, they can be renewed. They may respond at six months. For the primary endpoints, the highest response rate is the one that matters. Thanks for the question. It was important.
All right. Looks like we have another question from Uy Ear of Mizuho. Please go ahead.
Hey, guys. Thanks for taking the follow-up. I just wanted to ask, I don't know if you guys or Raj has watched the FDA AdCom on the Replimune product. I just wanted to see if you think that there's any read-through to your second-line development for NDV-01. Yeah, just wanted to see if you think there's any read-through considering that, I guess the FDA was looking for a large response rate and, in their opinion, it wasn't really the case? The AdCom looked at that sort of differently and saw a signal and I think took into significant consideration.
Maybe I can step in here. I think it's imprudent for us to comment on other companies' AdComs in different disease areas as well. I don't know that it would be, again, prudent for us to comment here. Thank you for the question, Uy.
Yeah. There are different indications and what we can share is that with the meeting with the FDA, there is no fixed number about what kind of response rate the FDA expects to approve NDV-01. I believe they stated that they want to see the overall data in terms of response rate and durability. It's really different from any other comparison.
Okay. Thanks.
Thank you.
This concludes our question-and-answer session and call for today. Thank you, everyone. You may now disconnect.
Thank you. Thank you all.
Thanks.

A: (Dr. Rajpruthi, CMO) For the BCG unresponsive population, achieving an 80% complete response rate at the 12-month mark would be considered best in class, especially compared to other approved agents that show around 45% response rates. Q: Can you clarify the implications of your provisional patent filing and its potential impact on future clinical trials? A: (Dr. Sergio Traversa, CEO) The provisional patent, if granted, would extend our patent life into 2047, providing significant IP protection. This could allow us to explore additional clinical trials, including combination studies, after the rescue programs are completed. Q: How are you addressing the potential variability in efficacy for the Phase III BCG unresponsive setting with broad inclusion criteria? A: (Dr. Rajpruthi, CMO) We have set guardrails for up to two prior first-line therapies to manage resistance mechanisms. We will evaluate efficacy based on one or two lines of prior therapies and consider the impact of prior intravesical chemotherapy. Q: Does the FDA's acceptance of CR at any time imply a need for durable responses in the Phase III primary endpoint? A: (Dr. Rajpruthi, CMO) The FDA wants to see a complete response at any time (CRNE) along with the duration of response. They will consider the totality of the data, including durability, as there are currently no approved agents in this space.

NDV-01 is a ready-to-use, sustained-release intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel, commonly referred to as Gem/Doce. Traversa said the product is designed to build on the established safety and efficacy profile of conventional Gem/Doce while offering a treatment that can fit into real-world urology practice. Dr. Raj Pruthi, Relmada’s chief medical officer for urology, said NDV-01 demonstrated high response rates and durable efficacy in an ongoing open-label, single-arm Phase 2 study of patients with high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, or NMIBC. → MercadoLibre Boldly Invests in Growth: Discount Deepens The study was designed to enroll up to 70 patients. Participants receive six biweekly doses, followed by monthly maintenance for up to one year. The primary endpoints are safety and complete response rate at 12 months. Pruthi said the 12-month data showed: A 95% complete response rate at any time and a 76% complete response rate at 12 months in high-risk NMIBC patients. A 94% complete response rate at any time and an 80% complete response rate at 12 months in the BCG-unresponsive subpopulation. No progression to muscle-invasive disease. No radical cystectomies. No grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events. No dose interruptions or discontinuations due to adverse events. → MP Materials Is Quietly Building a Rare Earth Powerhouse Pruthi said most treatment-related adverse events were grade 1. He added that the data “compare favorably to other programs in this space” and support NDV-01’s potential as a best-in-class therapy if approved. Relmada plans to present the 12-month data and details of the Phase 3 RESCUE program at the American Urological Association annual meeting. Pruthi said Relmada expects to file the U.S. investigational new drug application and initiate the RESCUE program across an estimated 80 sites in North America in mid-2026. The program includes two separate approval pathways. The first pathway focuses on second-line BCG-unresponsive patients with carcinoma in situ who are refractory to first-line therapies that are approved or in development. Pruthi estimated that approximately 5,000 patients per year in the U.S. fall into this setting. The single-arm study will use complete response rate at any time as the primary endpoint, with secondary endpoints including duration of response, progression-free survival and recurrence-free survival. Pruthi said Relmada expects to report the first three-month response data around year-end. During the question-and-answer session, he said the company hopes to have “a handful of patients” with three-month response and safety data by the end of the calendar year or early next year, with updates anticipated every three months into 2027. The second pathway will evaluate NDV-01 as an adjuvant therapy after transurethral resection of bladder tumor, or TURBT, in intermediate-risk NMIBC. Pruthi estimated that about 75,000 U.S. patients per year fall into this group. The trial is designed as an open-label, randomized controlled study comparing NDV-01 with observation. The primary endpoint is disease-free survival, with secondary endpoints including high-grade recurrence-free survival, progression-free survival and quality-of-life measures. Relmada executives emphasized NDV-01’s practical advantages for urology practices. Pruthi said NDV-01 forms a soft matrix in the bladder to enhance local urothelial exposure while minimizing systemic toxicity. He said it can be administered in a physician’s office by a nurse or licensed practical nurse in under five minutes and does not require a specialized pharmacy or hub. Traversa also highlighted an April provisional patent application in the U.S. covering formulations and methods of treatment for NDV-01. He said that, if granted, the patent could serve as the basis for worldwide filings and extend coverage for NDV-01 into 2047, which he said would provide a nine-year extension of commercial exclusivity. In response to an analyst question, Traversa said he would not expect a response from the patent office for at least 12 months. Chief Financial Officer Maged Shenouda provided an update on sepranolone, which he described as a novel neurosteroid intended to modulate the GABA neurotransmitter pathway and normalize GABA-A receptor activity. Relmada is developing sepranolone for compulsivity disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette syndrome and Prader-Willi syndrome. Shenouda said the company plans to initiate a proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi syndrome in mid-2026. Preparations include engaging with the FDA on the proposed trial design and establishing a supply chain. Relmada ended the first quarter with $234 million in cash, compared with $94 million at Dec. 31, 2025. Shenouda said the balance included approximately $150 million in net proceeds from the private financing announced March 9. The company expects its current cash resources to fund operations through 2029, including completion of the Phase 3 RESCUE program for NDV-01. Research and development expense was $8.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, down from $12 million in the same period of 2025. Shenouda said the decrease was primarily due to nonrecurring costs in 2025 tied to the acquisition of sepranolone and the NDV-01 license agreement, partially offset by increased costs related to startup of the NDV-01 Phase 3 trials, the sepranolone study and additional R&D personnel. General and administrative expense rose to $11.4 million from $6.3 million a year earlier, driven primarily by increased compensation costs, partly offset by lower stock-based compensation. Net cash used in operating activities was $15.1 million, compared with $18.1 million in the prior-year period. Relmada reported a first-quarter net loss of $19.1 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $17.6 million, or $0.58 per basic and diluted share, in the year-earlier quarter. In closing remarks, Traversa said the company is focused on execution as it prepares to initiate the RESCUE program and expects to provide additional updates in coming quarters.

Expected Upcoming Relmada Milestones: NDV-01 United States IND filing – Mid-2026 NDV-01 Phase 3 RESCUE Program initiation – Mid-2026 Sepranolone Phase 2 initiation in Prader-Willi syndrome – Mid-2026 Initial 3-month NDV-01 data from Phase 3 2L BCG-unresponsive study – YE 2026 Financial Results First Quarter 2026 Financial Results Research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026, totaled $8.1 million, compared to $12.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a decrease of $3.9 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to non-recurring costs associated with the acquisition of sepranolone and the license agreement of NDV-01 recognized in 2025. This 2026 decrease was partially offset by increased costs related to the start-up of the Phase 3 NDV-01 trials and Phase 2b sepranolone study and additional R&D personnel. General and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026, totaled $11.4 million compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of approximately $5.1 million. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in compensation costs partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation costs. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026, totaled $15.1 million compared to $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $19.1 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $17.6 million, or $0.58 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company’s balance of $234.0 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, includes net proceeds of approximately $150 million from the private placement financing announced March 9, 2026. This compares to cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $93.0 million at December 31, 2025. The Company’s current cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of March 31, 2026, is expected to provide sufficient resources to fund Company operations through 2029, including completion of the Phase 3 NDV-01 RESCUE program.

About NDV-01 NDV-01 is a ready-to-use, sustained-release intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel (Gem/Doce) being developed for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The formulation is engineered to provide prolonged bladder retention and controlled drug release over approximately 10 days. By forming a soft intravesical matrix, NDV-01 is designed to increase local drug exposure while limiting systemic toxicity. The treatment can be administered conveniently in an office setting in under 5 minutes without the need for anesthesia or specialized equipment. It is encompassed by multiple patent applications that if issued, could provide protection until 2047. About the NDV-01 Phase 2 Study The Phase 2 study (NCT06663137) is an open-label, single-arm, single-center study evaluating the safety and efficacy of NDV-01 in patients with high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HG-NMIBC). Patients are treated with NDV-01 in a biweekly induction phase, followed by monthly maintenance for up to one year. Patients were evaluated at 3-month intervals using cystoscopy and cytology, with biopsies performed at the treating physician’s discretion. Time-to-event endpoints, including complete response (CR) and event free survival (EFS) rates, were analyzed as landmark events and using Kaplan–Meier (KM) analysis. The primary efficacy endpoints are safety and CR rate at 12 months, and secondary efficacy endpoints are duration of response (DOR) and EFS. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were graded according to CTCAE v5.0 (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0). About the NDV-01 Phase 3 RESCUE Registrational Pathways: Relmada has received written feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) confirming alignment on two registrational development pathways for NDV-01, including study design, patient populations and primary endpoints. IND filing and program initiation remain on track for mid-2026. Registration Pathway 1 – An open-label single-arm trial in second line (2L) BCG-unresponsive NMIBC with carcinoma in situ (CIS) patients who are currently refractory to approved or developmental therapies. Patients with BCG-unresponsive NMIBC with CIS who fail first line (1L) therapies, which we estimate to affect ~5,000 patients/year in the US, have few, if any, effective treatment alternatives to radical cystectomy. The primary endpoint of the study is complete response (CR) rate at any time. Registrational Pathway 2 – An open label randomized controlled trial in intermediate-risk NMIBC of adjuvant therapy following TURBT (Transurethral Resection of Bladder Tumor, NDV-01 vs. observation). There are no approved adjuvant treatments for intermediate risk NMIBC, which we estimate affect ~75,000 patients/year in the US. The primary endpoint of the study is disease free survival (DFS). About NMIBC NMIBC represents 75-80% of all bladder cancer cases and is associated with high recurrence (50 – 80% over 5 years). With over 744,000 prevalent cases in the U.S. and limited treatment options, the market opportunity is significant. High-grade BCG-unresponsive disease represents one of the most difficult-to-treat NMIBC subtypes, with limited bladder-sparing options. Intermediate-risk NMIBC in the adjuvant setting has no currently approved therapies. NDV-01 has the potential to serve as a frontline or salvage therapy and could be applicable across multiple NMIBC subtypes. About Sepranolone and GABA Modulation Sepranolone, a synthetic isoallopregnanolone, selectively modulates GABAA receptors by antagonizing allopregnanolone (ALLO), without disrupting GABA signaling. It targets disorders linked to excess GABAergic activity such as Prader-Willi syndrome, Tourette syndrome, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). More than 335 patients have been treated with sepranolone in clinical trials to date, with an excellent safety profile. About Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) PWS is a rare genetic disorder caused by chromosomal deletions on chromosome 15, leading to neurodevelopmental and behavioral complications. Global prevalence is estimated to be 350,000-400,000 patients. Current treatments address symptoms but do not modify the underlying neurobehavioral pathology. About Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. Relmada Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing transformative therapies for oncology and central nervous system conditions. Its lead candidates, NDV-01 and sepranolone, are advancing through mid-stage clinical development with the potential to address significant unmet needs.

After that, we will open the line for a brief Q&A session. I would like to hand the call over to Sergio Traversa. Sergio.
Thank you, Brian. Good afternoon, and welcome everyone to the Relmada first quarter 2026 conference call. Relmada continues to make excellent progress this year, and we are excited about where we stand. The robust 12-month data for NDV-01 in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, or NMIBC, and the successful completion of a $160 million private placement financing, meaningful milestones that reflect the strengths of our progress. Importantly, we remain on track to initiation the phase III RESCUE program in mid-2026, which we believe will be a transformational moment for Relmada. Let me briefly describe what makes NDV-01 distinct. NDV-01 is a ready-to-use, sustained-release, intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel, or Gem/Doce. It's designed to build on a well-established safety and efficacy profile of conventional Gem/Doce and deliver a best-in-class therapy for patients living with NMIBC.
We remain focused on maximizing its potential for success for patients, the urology community, and our investors. Let me walk you through four milestones that speak to the momentum we have built this year. Number one, we have continued to de-risk the development of NDV-01 with the report of solid and durable 12-month efficacy data from the ongoing phase II study of NDV-01. We will be presenting this data and an overview of the phase III RESCUE program at the American Urological Association 2026 annual meeting later this week. High response rates, a favorable safety profile, and ease of use continue to strengthen our conviction that NDV-01 has the potential to provide what urologists and patients with NMIBC need, a simple, durably effective treatment that readily fits into real-world practice setting.
Number one, we achieved FDA alignment for our planned registration of phase III RESCUE programs. Number three, in April, we filed a provisional patent application in the U.S. directed to formulations and methods of treatment for NDV-01. This application, if issued, could form the basis for worldwide patent filings and have a term into 2047. Lastly, we have fortified our balance sheet. With the private financing that was completed in March, we have the resources to support completion of the phase III RESCUE program. Before I hand the call to Raj, I want to underscore the significance of the patent filing. The provisional application is directed to both the formulations and method of treatment, reflecting the breadth and novelty of the NDV-01 platform. If granted, it could form the basis for worldwide patent filings, significantly expanding our global IP protection.
Most importantly, it would meaningfully extend the coverage, covered claims of NDV-01 into 2047, providing a nine year extension of commercial exclusivity and strengthening our competitive positions as we advance toward registration. Looking ahead, as we enter the second half of 2026, our focus is on execution. We remain on track to initiate the registration of phase III RESCUE program for NDV-01 in mid-2026. We are also preparing to initiate approval concept study for sepranolone in Prader-Willi syndrome, targeted for mid-2026. Maged will speak about it in more detail shortly. Next, I'll turn the call over to Dr. Raj Pruthi, who will provide a review of the NDV program, including 12 months follow-up data from the ongoing phase II study and the summary of our phase III plans. Raj?
Thank you, Sergio. Good afternoon, everyone. I'm delighted to provide an update of NDV-01 and our upcoming presentations at the AUA meeting this coming weekend. The AUA is an important platform for us as we look forward to introducing NDV-01 to the broader urology community, building awareness of NDV-01 as a differentiated sustained release Gem/Doce, and generating investigator interest in the phase III RESCUE program. Bladder cancer is one of the most common cancers we see, and its impact on the patients is significant. Most are diagnosed in their mid-seventies. The disease often comes with high recurrence rates and intensive treatments that can greatly affect quality of life during a stage of life when preserving it is especially important. I want to touch on three topics during today's call. First, a recap of the NDV-01 12-month data. Second, a summary of our planned phase III program.
Third, a discussion of how NDV-01 might fit in the real-world practice of a urologist. As Sergio Traversa noted, NDV-01 is a novel sustained release intravesical formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel. It builds on physicians' established familiarity with conventional Gem/Doce. This is particularly meaningful for patients who are unresponsive to BCG, where bladder-sparing options that avoid radical cystectomy can be life-changing. Turning to the 12-month data, NDV-01 has demonstrated high response rates and durable efficacy in our ongoing phase II study. We believe these results compare favorably to other programs in this space and support NDV-01's potential as a best-in-class treatment for patients with bladder cancer if approved. The phase II study is an open-label single-arm trial in patients with high-risk NMIBC. Patients receive six biweekly doses, that is every other week, followed by monthly maintenance for up to one year. Regular assessments include cystoscopy, cytology, and biopsy if needed.
The study was designed to enroll up to 70 patients. Primary endpoints are safety and complete response rate at 12 months. The data demonstrated a 95% complete response rate at any time and a durable 76% CR at 12 months in the high-risk NMIBC patients, and a 94% CR at any time and a durable 80% CR rate at 12 months in the difficult-to-treat BCG unresponsive subpopulation, reinforcing its best-in-class potential in NMIBC. No patients had progression to muscle-invasive disease, and no patients underwent a radical cystectomy. On the strength of these findings, we are advancing NDV-01 into a phase III RESCUE registrational program. The program will evaluate NDV-01 in both second-line BCG unresponsive disease and in intermediate-risk bladder cancer as an adjuvant therapy following transurethral resection or TURBT. We will be presenting the 12-month data set at the AUA annual meeting this Friday.
We believe these data are compelling and look forward to the discussion they will generate in the urology community. Given the burdensome nature of the existing bladder cancer therapies, safety remains a critical aspect of the therapy's overall profile. We continue to be encouraged by the favorable safety profile observed for NDV-01 in our clinical program. In the 12-month data set, no patients experienced a grade three or higher treatment-related adverse event. There were no dose interruptions or discontinuations due to adverse events, and most treatment-related adverse events were grade one. Now turning to the phase III RESCUE program. We designed the program with two separate approval pathways to increase the likelihood of success while creating the most streamlined route to regulatory approval.
We expect to file the U.S. IND and initiate RESCUE program across an estimated 80 sites in North America in mid-2026. The RESCUE program will also be highlighted in the Trials in Progress session at the AUA Annual Meeting on Sunday, May 17th, providing an important opportunity to engage the urology community. Let me now walk you through each of the two studies that form the RESCUE program. Registrational Pathway one focuses on patients in the 2nd-line setting, patients who are BCG unresponsive with carcinoma in situ, or CIS, and refractory to 1st-line therapies that are approved or in development. We estimate approximately 5,000 patients per year in the U.S. fall into this setting. With few effective alternatives to radical cystectomy, this study is designed as a single-arm trial. The primary endpoint is complete response rate at any time.
Secondary endpoints include duration of response, progression-free survival, and recurrence-free survival. We expect to report the first three month response data around year-end. This pathway could offer a rapid route to approval. Registrational Pathway number evaluates NDV-01 as an adjuvant therapy following TURBT in patients with intermediate-risk NMIBC. We estimate approximately 75,000 patients per year in the U.S. fall into this setting. Since no approved treatments exist in this setting, the study is designed as an open-label, randomized controlled trial comparing NDV-01 versus observation. The primary endpoint is disease-free survival. Secondary endpoints include high-grade recurrence-free survival, progression-free survival, and quality-of-life endpoints. We see this as a very attractive opportunity to incorporate NDV-01 into patient care after TURBT and pave the way for broader adoption. Let me share our thinking on how NDV-01 might work in the real-world practice of a urologist.
NDV-01 is formulated to create a soft matrix in the bladder, enhancing local urothelial exposure while minimizing systemic toxicity. It can be delivered in the office by a nurse or LPN in under 5 minutes and does not require a specialized pharmacy or hub. This streamlined administration model offers a level of convenience and time savings that differentiates NDV-01 from other agents. As I hand the call over to our CFO, Maged Shenouda, I want to emphasize why we're so excited about NDV-01. Our phase II data gives us high confidence in the RESCUE. We believe NDV-01 addresses a clear unmet need with a unique sustained delivery platform and has the potential to redefine the standard of care in bladder cancer. Maged?
Sure. Thanks, Raj, and good afternoon, everyone. Today, I'll spend a few minutes on sepranolone and then provide you with an overview of our first quarter 2026 financial results. Sepranolone is a novel neurosteroid that modulates GABA, one of the most important neurotransmitters. Sepranolone is intended to act on the GABA neurotransmitter pathway to normalize the activity of the GABA A receptor and alleviate the repetitive symptoms in compulsivity disorders. These disorders affect millions of people around the world and include obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette syndrome, and Prader-Willi syndrome. We plan to initiate a proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi syndrome in mid 2026. Our immediate preparations are focused on engaging with the FDA regarding our proposed trial design and putting a robust supply chain in place. Moving now to our financial results.
As noted earlier by Brian, this afternoon, Relmada issued a press release announcing our business and financial results for the 1st quarter ended 31st March 2026. During this call, I will provide a high-level review of our financial results and refer you to our press release and 10-Q filing issued this afternoon with more detailed information. Starting with our cash balance, Relmada closed the 1st quarter of 2026 with a cash balance of $234 million compared to $94 million at 31st December 2025. Our 1st quarter cash balance includes net proceeds of approximately $150 million from a private financing announced March 9, 2026. We expect our current cash resources to provide sufficient runway to fund company operations through 2029, including completion of the phase III RESCUE program for NDV-01.
Moving briefly through our first quarter financial results. Research and development expense for the three months ended 31st March 2026 totaled $8.1 million, compared to $12 million for the three months ended 31st March 2025, a decrease of $3.9 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to non-recurrent costs associated with the acquisition of sepranolone and the license agreement of NDV-01 in 2025. This 2026 decrease was partially offset by increased costs related to the startup of the phase III NDV-01 trials and phase II-B sepranolone study and additional R&D personnel.
General and administrative expense for the three months ended 31st March 2026, was $11.4 million compared to $6.3 million for the three months ended 31st March 2025, an increase of approximately $5.1 million. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in compensation costs, partially offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation costs. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended 31st March 2026, totaled $15.1 million compared to $18.1 million for the same period in 2025.
The net loss for the three months ended 31st March 2026, was $19.1 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, compared with a net loss of $17.6 million or $0.58 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended 31st March 2025. Before we open the call for questions, I'll turn back to Sergio for some closing comments. Sergio.
Thank you, Maged. In closing, I'm very confident and optimistic about our clinical programs and the long-term prospects for Relmada. As we are getting ready to initiate the RESCUE registrational program for NDV-01 in mid-2026, we are focused on execution and look forward to updating you on our progress in the coming quarters. Operator, I would like now to open the call for questions.
Yes, sir. Thank you. As a reminder, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Thank you for waiting. We now have our first question, and this comes from Kelsey Gold from Piper Sandler. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.
Hey. Thanks for taking my questions. Looking forward to seeing the data this weekend at AUA. I guess a couple from me, if you don't mind. First, for AUA this weekend, it seems like there's some gemcitabine presentations. I guess how should we think about the growing literature on gemcitabine and the degree of read-through to NDV-01? Secondly, maybe just updated thoughts on how we should think about this first look at the BCG unresponsive second-line data later in the year. Maybe how many patients we might see or how to benchmark that. I'll leave it at that. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Kelsey. Sergio here, good afternoon. Well, maybe I can take, like, a little point on the first question. I see the, you know, gemcitabine, conventional gemcitabine data always as a positive because it just consolidate how urology, the urology community, believes that this is a very effective and way to treat bladder cancer. With that said, I let Raj to expand and answer you the second question. Raj.
Yeah. Thanks for the question, Kelsey. You know, I'm excited as a urologic oncologist to see the number of non-muscle invasive bladder cancers in general in the hundreds at the AUA this year. You're right, there's a significant number of gemcitabine papers being presented more and more on the efficacy of gemcitabine, especially in the high-risk patient population. The other that I think is notable is that of time toxicity with gemcitabine. There's two papers being presented on the burden of conventional sequential gemcitabine time toxicity, the burden to the patient and to the provider. I think that provides really tees us up to address that time toxicity with our sustained-release formulation. Regarding I think your second question was on our cohort two way for the second-line BCG unresponsive.
You know, my hope in that is that by, you know, as we get this study going, that we'll have a handful of patients maybe by the end of this calendar year that will be able to share three month data. You know, this is an open label study, so a three month response and safety rate data by the end of this year or early next year. We anticipate at a cadence of every three months sharing that data into 2027. I think I got both of your questions.
Perfect. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Kelsey.
Thank you. The next question comes from Christopher Lui from Lucid Capital Markets. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.
Thank you. Congrats on the progress you guys have been making so far. For my question, I was just wondering what your updated thoughts are going into this AUA update in terms of what would be a positive readout for you guys at this 12-month mark, in your opinion.
Thank you, Chris. Sergio here. I would let Raj, the AUA expert, to answer this one. Raj.
Yeah. I think, you know, I really kind of hone in on the BCG unresponsive population. I think that's the most difficult to treat at failing BCG. I think for our BCG unresponsive, we see numbers of 80% landmark and 84% KM at the 12-month standpoint, which I think is best in class. I think you see approved agents, the best in-class approved agents for BCG unresponsive with CIS are around 45%. I think others have seen numbers up towards 70%. I think the numbers of 80% and 85% that we have are really best in class at that point, and along with a good safety profile.
I think, Chris, I think that's the number that I would kinda look at is that 80% number.
Got it. I appreciate the color. Thank you.
You bet.
Thank you. The next question comes from Uy Ear from Mizuho. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.
Hey, guys. Yeah, thanks for taking our questions, and congrats on all the progress you've made. Maybe just help us to understand a little bit more about your patent estate. You filed the provisional patent, and I'm not sure I quite understand the phrase, if approved, patents claiming priority to the provisional patent would have extended patent life, I guess, into 2047. Could you maybe just help clarify that, what that means exactly? Also, with the extended patent term, you know, which is quite extensive, how are you perhaps thinking about doing additional clinical trials? Like, does it give you greater chance of, you know, or are you thinking about, you know, perhaps doing combination studies in addition after the RESCUE programs are done? Thanks.
Good afternoon, Uy Ear. Sergio here. I'll take the first one on the IP and then let Raj to handle the one on the development. Look, the we just filed a patent a few weeks ago, so allow me to be not too specific on what the claims are. In general, these are new patents and reflect the work that has been done in the U.S. in the formulation and manufacturing. These are new patent we filed in the U.S., and then we'll have the opportunity, we have some time, I believe it's one year, to file outside of the U.S. These are new patents, so they will provide coverage, if granted, of course, until sometime in 2047. I hope I kind of answer your question.
When do you expect the prosecution to end, or when do you expect the patent to be issued?
Yeah. It's always a guess. Look, we just filed, so from my experience, I would not expect anything, at least for the first 12 months, the first year. It looks like the patent office is very, very busy, with a lot of filing and applications, so I would not, I would not focus on any response before at least one year.
Okay.
Uy Ear, I can jump in on your other question about now we have the opportunities to look at NDV-01 in where else in lower track or upper track disease. I think there are a lot of opportunities, we can just follow the path of where has gemcitabine been effective. I think we started with BCG unresponsive and discussed that with those results. I think the extension into intermediate risk disease is a significant opportunity and market opportunity for Relmada. I think also another opportunity that we're considering is in the high-risk BCG naive population, another large patient population. I think on the heels of the BRIDGE study, which completed enrollment, I believe, in August 2025. It's an event-driven study, will take a couple years to read out.
I think that's also another place where we, you know, if BRIDGE does read out as gemcitabine is non-inferior to BCG and becomes an alternative, I think NDV-01 can nicely step in there as a, as an, yeah, easier-to-use, less burdensome approach for gemcitabine in the BCG naive high-risk population. Great question. Thank you.
Thanks.
Thank you, Uy Ear.
Thank you. Once again, for those who want to ask a question, please press star and one on your telephone keypad and wait for your name to be announced. Star and one if you wish to ask a question. The next question comes from Farzin Haque from Jefferies. Your line is now open. Please go ahead.
Good afternoon. Thank you for taking my question. Following up on an earlier question, like you have a broad inclusion criteria for phase III, the BCG unresponsive setting, and you're allowing up to two prior lines, including a wide range, TAR-200, Anktiva, etc. How are you modeling the potential for variability or dilution of efficacy, and could you adjust to one prior line as the trial progresses?
Thank you, Farzin.
Yeah.
Raj, I think, would you mind to take this?
My pleasure. Thanks for the question, Farzin. It's a very thoughtful question. I think we've built in kind of guardrails to that study of up to two prior first-line therapies, with the idea that, you know, beyond that there may be some resistance mechanisms. We'll evaluate, we'll break that down by one or two lines of prior therapy. We're looking at that. Within the therapy too, another area we're looking at, and remember, these are open-label studies, so we can see how these patients are doing. We're also going to look at patients who've had prior intravesical chemotherapy as part of their BCG-unresponsive disease. Particularly Anktiva, we are excluding prior gemcitabine in those patients because we're giving a gemcitabine treatment.
We'll look at Anktiva and gemcitabine, and we have heard, and in my own practice, having gemcitabine as a rescue for gemcitabine is appropriate. I think we wanna see, you know, our efficacy is what is the our approach is what is the appropriate second-line therapy, right? These therapies are gonna be sequenced by urologists 2, 3, 4, 5x before cystectomy. Right now, there's a lot of agents approved and in development for the first-line. There's none in second-line therapy, that gives us an opportunity to provide the highest levels of evidence and a label for the second-line approach. From there, once urologists use it there, as we do, they could use it before or after.
That you bring up a good point. We are looking at lines of therapy and also what that prior therapy was. Thanks for the question, Farzin.
Then on your phase III primary endpoint, does FDA's acceptance of CR at any time imply any durable responses, for example, median duration response greater than six months?
Their phrase was, they want the primary endpoint to be CR, and they also want to see duration of response. The words that they use is they want to look at the, quote, "totality of the data," close quote. I think they're getting at what you are, is a strong CR, which could be at three months, is great, but they want to see some level of durability in that. They didn't give the number on that, but they want to see some durability. CR, together with durability in this, framed as duration of response is what they'll want to see. Given the fact that there is no agents that have been approved in this space, I think they'll put all that together, as they said, in the totality of the data.
Really the other alternative for the patients at this point in their journey is radical cystectomy.
Right. Makes sense. Then a quick one is that what is your expectation for enrollment cadence across both your pivotals? Can the drug's in-office profile serve as a recruitment advantage potentially?
Yeah, that's a great question, Farzeen. I think, and having been on a number of calls of our site qualification visits, the enthusiasm by investigators is significant. A lot of the sites participated to address cohort one, which is intermediate risk, have participated in PIVOT-006, and they're excited for the next intermediate risk study. We've modeled out up to 15-18 months, but with that enthusiasm and given what CG has been able to do as far as recruitment and number of events, I feel confident that we'll be able to meet or exceed that timeline. Regarding the second-line therapy, we are anticipating 12 months, but that's again, Farzeen, another area where there's incredible enthusiasm because urologists have nothing else at this point in their armamentarium to treat these patients.
A lot of these urologists, even the best in case scenarios, are 45% 12-month CR. You see 19%-45%, meaning 55%-80% of patients are recurring within one year with the first-line therapy. There's a large population of patients out there with BCG unresponsive CIS who failed first-line therapy. We're not competing with any other study. I'm optimistic that we'll be able to reach that 12-month enrollment.
Great. Super helpful. Thank you, Rich.
Thanks, Farzin.
Thank you. There are no further questions that came through. This concludes our question and answer session and the call for today. Thank you, everyone. You may now disconnect.

Relmada Therapeutics Q4 Earnings Call Highlights
NDV-01 showed durable Phase 2 efficacy with a 12-month complete response rate of 76% overall (80% in BCG-unresponsive patients) and high overall CRs (95% any-time) with no progression to muscle-invasive disease or grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events; the company plans to start the two-pathway registrational Phase 3 RESCUE program in mid-2026 (≈80 North American sites) and expects initial 3-month data from the second-line arm by year-end 2026. Sepranolone (a GABA-modulating steroid antagonist) is being prepared for a proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi syndrome slated to begin in mid-2026, with prior proof-of-concept signals in Tourette syndrome and ongoing FDA engagement on trial design. Relmada closed 2025 with about $93 million in cash and reported net proceeds from recent financings (including a ~$160 million private placement), which management says, together, are expected to fund operations through 2029; Q4 2025 net loss was $19.9 million ($0.27 per share). Interested in Relmada Therapeutics, Inc.? Here are five stocks we like better. Relmada Therapeutics (NASDAQ:RLMD) outlined progress on its lead urology oncology program and reviewed fourth-quarter results during its fourth quarter and full year 2025 earnings call, highlighting durable Phase 2 data for NDV-01 in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), plans to begin a Phase 3 registrational program in mid-2026, and upcoming clinical work for sepranolone. Chief Executive Officer Dr. Sergio Traversa said 2025 was a “transformational year” for the company, pointing to “compelling responses and durable 12-month efficacy data” from the ongoing Phase 2 study of NDV-01.

CR at any time: 95% overall (based on 38 patients) and 94% among BCG-unresponsive patients. Safety: No progression to muscle-invasive disease, no radical cystectomies, no grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events, and no interruptions or discontinuations due to adverse events; most treatment-related adverse events were grade 1. → Members of Congress Bought These 5 Stocks—Should You? Pruthi also emphasized administration and design elements he believes could help NDV-01 fit in routine practice, saying the product is designed to form a “soft matrix” in the bladder to enhance local exposure while minimizing systemic toxicity, and that it can be delivered in an office setting in “less than 5 minutes.” Management said it reached alignment with the FDA on a Phase 3 registration strategy built around two independent pathways within the planned RESCUE program. Traversa said the company plans to initiate the Phase 3 program in the middle of 2026, while Pruthi added the company expects to secure U.S. IND clearance and begin RESCUE in mid-2026 at an estimated 80 sites in North America. → Expedia Stock Turns Volatile After Rally. Where Does It Go Next? The two registrational studies described were: Pathway 1 (intermediate-risk adjuvant post-TURBT): An open-label randomized controlled trial evaluating NDV-01 versus observation after TURBT. The primary endpoint is disease-free survival, with secondary endpoints including high-grade recurrence-free survival, progression-free survival, and quality-of-life metrics. Pruthi estimated about 70,000 to 75,000 U.S. patients per year in this setting, and Traversa cited approximately 75,000. Pathway 2 (BCG-unresponsive carcinoma in situ, second-line): A single-arm open-label trial in patients with BCG-unresponsive CIS who are refractory to first-line therapies. The primary endpoint is CR at any time, with secondary endpoints including duration of response, progression-free survival, and recurrence-free survival among responders. Pruthi estimated about 5,000 U.S. patients per year in this setting. Pruthi said the company expects to report initial 3-month response data from the second-line BCG-unresponsive study by the end of 2026. In the Q&A, he added that once enrollment begins mid-year, the company expects it will be able to share 3-month data externally by year-end and then provide additional follow-up data roughly every three months as 6-, 9-, and 12-month data mature. During questions, Pruthi said the company’s 12-month Phase 2 NDV-01 data have been accepted for presentation at the American Urological Association (AUA) meeting, and that the company also expects to present a “trial in progress” as RESCUE gets underway. In response to investor questions about whether the second-line study could include more heavily pretreated patients, Pruthi said the protocol limits prior therapies to a maximum of two lines, offering an example of allowing prior Adstiladrin followed by Anktiva. He also said the company plans to look at outcomes at three months among the first 15 patients stratified by whether they received one versus two prior therapies, and noted this approach reflects conversations with the FDA. Asked whether the FDA stipulated a minimum follow-up duration for all patients prior to a potential NDA submission in the second-line setting, Pruthi said the agency had not required a specific minimum follow-up time, but indicated it wants to see a response along with some level of durability, describing the agency’s interest as the “totality of the data.” On enrollment, Pruthi acknowledged the BCG-unresponsive space has been crowded historically, but argued that RESCUE’s second-line positioning offers a competitive advantage, adding that he was not aware of other pivotal studies in that specific second-line setting. For intermediate-risk disease, he cited investigator interest in the category and said he expects enrollment could be “pretty rapidly ahead of schedule,” referencing another company’s experience in intermediate-risk trials. On how the company is thinking about benchmarks, Pruthi discussed historical complete response data in first-line BCG-unresponsive CIS therapies, citing Valrubicin, Keytruda, and Adstiladrin, and said he believes second-line expectations should be in line with or lower than first-line levels as a precedent. In response to questions about CIS versus papillary disease comparisons, he referenced a 2020 Journal of Urology paper by Steinberg describing similar outcomes for gemcitabine/docetaxel in CIS and papillary populations, and noted Relmada’s own CIS subset numbers were small. Chief Financial Officer Maged Shenouda reviewed the company’s plans for sepranolone, describing it as a “GABA Modulating Steroid Antagonist” (GAMSA). He said sepranolone’s mechanism could have potential across compulsive disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette syndrome, and Prader-Willi syndrome. Shenouda said the company is preparing to initiate a proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi syndrome in mid-2026, with immediate efforts focused on study preparations, FDA engagement on trial design, and establishing a supply chain. Traversa also noted sepranolone previously demonstrated proof-of-concept in Tourette syndrome. Shenouda said Relmada closed 2025 with $93 million in cash, compared with approximately $45 million in cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2024. He stated the year-end cash balance included net proceeds of approximately $94 million from an underwritten stock offering announced November 5, 2025. He also discussed a $160 million private financing announced March 9, 2025, with net proceeds of approximately $160 million. Management said the financing, together with year-end cash, is expected to fund operations through 2029, including completion of the Phase 3 RESCUE program. For the fourth quarter, Shenouda reported: R&D expense: $8.1 million for Q4 2025 versus $11.0 million for Q4 2024, with the decrease primarily tied to reduced study costs following completion of two Phase 3 trials for REL-1017, partially offset by costs related to NDV-01 Phase 3 startup, a sepranolone Phase 2b study, and additional R&D personnel. G&A expense: $12.3 million for Q4 2025 versus $8.1 million for Q4 2024, driven primarily by higher compensation costs, partially offset by lower stock compensation costs. Net cash used in operating activities: $14.6 million for Q4 2025 versus $8.8 million for Q4 2024. Net loss: $19.9 million, or $0.27 per basic and diluted share, for Q4 2025, compared with a net loss of $18.7 million, or $0.62 per basic and diluted share, for Q4 2024. In closing remarks, Traversa said the company is focused on execution as it prepares to initiate the RESCUE registrational program and plans to update investors in coming quarters. Relmada Therapeutics, Inc is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel therapies for pain and other central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The company applies a proprietary stereochemical approach to optimized drug candidates, aiming to improve safety, tolerability and efficacy profiles compared with existing treatments.

Fourth Quarter and Year End 2025 Conference Call. 2025 has been a transformational year for Relmada Therapeutics, Inc., marked by significant progress for our lead program NDV01. As a reminder, NDV01 is a sustained-release formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel. We are developing this investigational product candidate for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, or NMIBC. Most recently, we reported compelling responses and durable 12-month efficacy data for our ongoing Phase II study of NDV01. We achieved FDA alignment for our planned registrational Phase III RESCUE programs. We fortified our team and we substantially strengthened our balance sheet. As we reflect on our recent accomplishment and planned next steps, I would like to highlight four key areas. First, NDV01. We believe that the strength of the recently reported 12-month follow-up data could position NDV01 as a potential best-in-class therapy for the treatment of NMIBC. Furthermore, the strength of the clinical data and the unique easy-to-administer sustained-release formulation give us confidence that NDV01 has the potential to provide what urologists and patients with NMIBC need: a simple, durable, effective treatment that readily fits into real-world practice settings.

Now, I would like to hand the call over to Sergio Traversa. Sergio? Sergio Traversa: Thank you, Brian. Good afternoon and welcome everyone to the Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. Fourth Quarter and Year End 2025 Conference Call. 2025 has been a transformational year for Relmada Therapeutics, Inc., marked by significant progress for our lead program NDV01. As a reminder, NDV01 is a sustained-release formulation of gemcitabine and docetaxel. We are developing this investigational product candidate for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, or NMIBC. Most recently, we reported compelling responses and durable 12-month efficacy data for our ongoing Phase II study of NDV01. We achieved FDA alignment for our planned registrational Phase III RESCUE programs. We fortified our team and we substantially strengthened our balance sheet. As we reflect on our recent accomplishment and planned next steps, I would like to highlight four key areas. First, NDV01. We believe that the strength of the recently reported 12-month follow-up data could position NDV01 as a potential best-in-class therapy for the treatment of NMIBC. Furthermore, the strength of the clinical data and the unique easy-to-administer sustained-release formulation give us confidence that NDV01 has the potential to provide what urologists and patients with NMIBC need: a simple, durable, effective treatment that readily fits into real-world practice settings. We plan to initiate the Phase III RESCUE program in the middle of this year. Our Phase III regulatory strategy agreed upon with the FDA includes two independent registrational pathways. Pathway one is focused on adjuvant therapy following TURBT in patients with intermediate-risk bladder cancer, which affects about 75,000 patients in the United States. Pathway two is focused on second-line treatment in BCG-unresponsive patients, which represents about 5,000 patients in the United States. Second, sopranolone. Sopranolone has previously demonstrated proof of concept in Tourette syndrome. It is a disorder characterized by compulsive behavior. We are getting ready to begin a proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi syndrome in the middle of this year. And third, our team. We substantially strengthened our development team with the appointment of Dr. Raj S. Pruthi, a highly regarded physician-scientist and urologic oncologist, as Chief Medical Officer, Oncology. In addition, we established a scientific advisory board comprised of similarly distinguished peers to further support the NDV01 program: Dr. Yair Lotan from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and Dr. Moussa “Moe” Ates from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Fourth and last, financial strength. We just completed a successful $160,000,000 private financing. Based on existing forecasts, these funds plus our existing cash balance provide Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. with capital through 2029, and importantly, through the completion of the planned NDV01 program. Looking ahead, 2026 is poised to be another important year of value creation for Relmada Therapeutics, Inc., with the initiation of our Phase III RESCUE program for NDV01 in bladder cancer and the Phase II proof-of-concept trial for sopranolone in Prader-Willi syndrome. With that, I also would like to express my appreciation for the trust and support of our investors, employees, collaborators, and the patients who participate in our studies. Next, I will turn the call over to Dr. Raj S. Pruthi, who will provide a review of the NDV01 program, including 12-month follow-up data from the ongoing Phase II study and the summary of our Phase III plans. Raj? Raj S. Pruthi: Thank you, Sergio. Good afternoon, everyone. It is a privilege to share an update on the clinical progress we have made this year, headlined by the truly compelling and best-in-class results for NDV01 in NMIBC. Bladder cancer is a high-frequency cancer that has a major impact on the lives of patients, generally diagnosed in their early to mid-70s. High recurrence rates and burdensome treatments disrupt quality of life at a time when patients are eager to enjoy life. I want to touch on three topics during today's call. One, an overview of the NDV01 12-month data. Two, a summary of our planned Phase III program. And three, a discussion of how NDV01 might fit into the practice of urologic oncology. As Sergio noted, NDV01 is a novel, sustained-release intravesical formulation of two chemotherapy agents, gemcitabine and docetaxel, or gem-dose, as we say. Our program builds on physicians' established familiarity with the efficacy and safety profile of conventional gem-dose. More specifically, in patients who are unresponsive to BCG, this combination offers a salvage, bladder-sparing option that may help avoid a radical cystectomy. Moving on to the 12-month data, we are pleased to report that NDV01 has demonstrated a high response rate and durable 12-month efficacy from the ongoing Phase II study. We believe these data stand out in comparison to other benchmark programs that could position NDV01 as a best-in-class treatment option for patients with bladder cancer, if approved. The study is an open-label, single-arm trial in patients with high-risk NMIBC. Patients receive six biweekly doses every other week times six, followed by monthly maintenance for up to one year. Patients undergo regular assessments with cystoscopy, pathology, and, if needed, biopsy. The study was designed to enroll up to 70 patients with high-risk NMIBC. The primary endpoints are safety and complete response rate at 12 months. Secondary endpoints are duration of response and event-free survival. The data demonstrated a 12-month complete response rate of 76% with a favorable safety profile. Notably, the study also showed a 12-month complete response rate of 80% in the BCG-unresponsive population, one of the most difficult-to-treat segments of NMIBC. These findings support the advancement into the Phase III registrational program, which we are calling RESCUE. The program will evaluate NDV01 in both second-line BCG-unresponsive disease and in intermediate-risk bladder cancer as an adjuvant therapy following TURBT. When you look at the complete responses, or CR, at any time in the overall population, we see a CR any time of 95%, based on 38 patients. Among those with BCG-unresponsive disease, we see a CR rate at any time of 94%. Given the burdensome nature of recurrent bladder cancer treatment, safety is a critical element of our product profile. We continue to be encouraged by the favorable safety profile observed for NDV01 across our clinical program. In the 12-month data set for NDV01, no patients had progression to muscle-invasive disease, no patients underwent a radical cystectomy, no patients had a grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse event, no interruptions or discontinuations of treatment due to adverse events occurred, and most treatment-related adverse events were at the grade 1 level. Moving on to the planned Phase III RESCUE program. We believe our 12-month response and durability data compare quite favorably to the current commercial and development-stage therapies. We have constructed our Phase III registrational pathways to maximize our probability of success and create the most efficient path to FDA approval. The entire RESCUE registration program was designed in alignment with the FDA to provide two separate approval pathways. We expect to secure U.S. IND clearance and initiate the Phase III RESCUE program in the middle of this year. Let us review the two studies that form the RESCUE program. Registrational pathway one focuses on the evaluation of NDV01 in patients with intermediate-risk bladder cancer as an adjuvant therapy following TURBT surgery. We estimate there are about 75,000 patients each year in the U.S. in this setting. This study is planned to be an open-label, randomized controlled trial. Since there are no approved treatments for adjuvant intermediate-risk NMIBC, the study will evaluate NDV01 versus observation. The primary endpoint is disease-free survival, or DFS. Secondary endpoints include high-grade recurrence-free survival, progression-free survival, and quality-of-life metrics. We feel that the opportunity to incorporate NDV01 into patient care post-TURBT is very attractive, and it could pave the way for an important clinical indication and broader adoption. Registrational pathway number two is focused on the evaluation of NDV01 in the second-line setting in patients who are BCG-unresponsive with carcinoma in situ, or CIS, or refractory to first-line therapies approved or in development. We estimate that there are about 5,000 patients per year in the U.S. in this setting. Since these patients have few, if any, effective treatment alternatives to radical cystectomy, the study is designed as a single-arm, open-label trial. The primary endpoint is CR any time. Secondary endpoints will include the duration of response, or DOR, progression-free survival, and recurrence-free survival among responders. We expect to report the initial three-month response data from this study by the end of 2026. We are excited about this pathway because it could offer a rapid route to approval. Before I hand the call over to Maged, I would like to make a note about how we feel NDV01 might fit into clinical practice. NDV01 is formulated to create a soft matrix in the bladder to enhance local bladder urothelial exposure and minimize systemic toxicity. It is delivered in the office in less than five minutes. This simple formulation and administration model has the potential to optimize the delivery experience for patients and providers, offering a level of simplicity and time savings that stands out among the others. And I will hand the call over to our CFO, Maged S. Shenouda. Our Phase II data give us high confidence in our registrational program. By addressing a clear unmet need with a unique sustained delivery profile, we believe NDV01 is uniquely positioned to redefine the standard of care in bladder cancer. We look forward to initiating the RESCUE registrational program at an estimated 80 sites in North America in the middle of this year, as we work to bring NDV01 to bladder cancer patients as soon as possible. Maged? Maged S. Shenouda: Thanks, Raj, and good afternoon, everyone. Today, I will spend a few minutes on 2025 financial results. Because sopranolone modulates GABA, one of the most important neurotransmitters, it is defined as a GABA, or GABA-modulating steroid antagonist. Sopranolone's novel action on the GABA neurotransmitter pathway gives it the potential to normalize the activity of the GABAA receptor and alleviate the repetitive symptoms of compulsivity disorders. These disorders affect millions of people around the world and include indications such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, Tourette's syndrome, and Prader-Willi syndrome. We are preparing to initiate a proof-of-concept study in Prader-Willi syndrome in mid-2026. Our immediate efforts are dedicated to completing study preparations, including engaging with the FDA on our proposed trial design and establishing a robust supply chain. Moving now to our financial results. As noted earlier by Brian, this afternoon, Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. issued a press release announcing our business and financial results for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2025. During this call, I will review our fourth quarter 2025 financial results and refer you to our press release and Form 10-K filing issued this afternoon for financial information for the last twelve months. Starting with our cash balance. Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. closed 2025 with a cash balance of $93,000,000. This includes net proceeds of approximately $94,000,000 from an underwritten stock offering announced on 11/05/2025. This compares to cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $45,000,000 at 12/31/2024. On 03/09/2025, the company announced a $160,000,000 private financing with net proceeds of approximately $150,000,000. This financing, along with our cash balance as of 12/31/2025, is expected to provide sufficient resources to fund company operations through 2029, including completion of the Phase III RESCUE program for NDV01. Moving through our fourth quarter financial results. Research and development expense for the three months ended 12/31/2025 totaled $8,100,000 compared to $11,000,000 for the three months ended 12/31/2024, a decrease of $2,900,000. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in study costs associated with the completion of two Phase III trials for REL-1017, partially offset by increased costs related to the start-up of the Phase III NDV01 trials and Phase 2b sopranolone study, and additional R&D personnel. General and administrative expense for the three months ended 12/31/2025 totaled $12,300,000 compared to $8,100,000 for the three months ended 12/31/2024, an increase of approximately $4,200,000. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in compensation costs, partially offset by a decrease in stock compensation costs. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended 12/31/2025 totaled $14,600,000 compared to $8,800,000 for the three months ended 12/31/2024. The net loss for the three months ended 12/31/2025 was $19,900,000, or $0.27 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $18,700,000, or $0.62 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended 12/31/2024. Before we open the call for questions, I will turn back to Sergio for some closing comments. Sergio? Sergio Traversa: Thank you, Maged. In closing of our prepared remarks, I would like to share that I am very confident and optimistic about our clinical programs and the long-term prospects for Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. As we are getting ready to initiate the RESCUE registrational program for NDV01, we are focused on execution and looking forward to updating you on our progress in the coming quarters. Operator, I would now like to open the call for questions. Operator: Thank you. We will now be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press 1 on your telephone keypad. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. Our first question is from Uy Sieng Ear with Mizuho Securities. Uy Sieng Ear: Hey, guys. Congrats on the great data and the PIPE. Yeah. It seems like you guys did a lot of work this quarter. So maybe, you know, maybe we are getting some questions on whether you will present additional data from your Phase II study. Should we kind of expect, going forward, maybe updates every three months? And will you also have data, I guess, at AUA by any chance? So that is the first question. And the second question that we have been kind of getting is there has been, I guess, some investors are a little bit concerned that the second-line patients may not be necessarily second-line, but maybe, by the time they get to your regimen, it could be their third line. Maybe just help us understand what you are doing exactly to ensure that those patients are truly second-line patients. And the third question is, you indicated that you have three-month data from your Phase III BCG-unresponsive second-line unresponsive patients. Will this be from the entire patient population, or would this be sort of interim and as partial or a portion of the number of patients that you expect to enroll? Thanks. Sergio Traversa: Thank you, Uy, for the questions. I think Raj can answer these questions. I pass it to Raj. Raj S. Pruthi: Yeah. Thank you, Sergio. Good to hear from you, Uy. Regarding the data, we will be presenting updated data, this 12-month data, at the AUA. It has been accepted to that. We will also be presenting a trial-in-progress as we get RESCUE going. Our plan is to focus on introducing data, and I think this is your last question, in the BCG-unresponsive second-line group, starting at the end of the year. So as we start the trial in midyear, we should have some three-month data to be able to share externally by the end of the year as it is a single-arm, open-label study. And our thought is to then actually, at a cadence of about every three months, share the data as we get six-, nine-, and twelve-month follow-up on that data set. I think you provide an excellent question on second line, third line, fourth line. And we are indeed limiting the number of prior therapy lines to two. So you can have had one line of therapy and still have been, for example, BCG-unresponsive, while allowing a second line of those to be intravesical chemotherapy. We are also allowing a maximum of two prior lines. We are also going to look at 15 patients at three months for those who received one prior line of therapy versus two just to make sure there is nothing concerning that would suggest that those should be excluded, and this is reflective of the conversations we have had with the FDA. I think it is a good question. Limiting the number of kind of third or fourth lines. Uy Sieng Ear: Thank you. Right. Thank you. Operator: Our next question is from Farzin Hak with Jefferies. Congrats on the progress, and thank you for taking my questions. Farzin Hak: So I have one on the operational standpoint. The NMIBC space is becoming congested with active trials and drugs approved too. So are there, like, what is your expectation for enrollment cadence across your two studies? And can the drug’s in-office profile potentially serve as a recruitment advantage? Sergio Traversa: Thank you, Farzin. Raj, do you want to take that? Raj S. Pruthi: Yeah. Thank you. Yeah, Farzin. Good to hear from you. I think you are right. I think the high-risk, BCG-unresponsive setting has been a crowded space, but I think ours, coming in as a second-line therapy, provides a unique advantage. And there are no drugs that have been approved in that setting and none that I am aware of that are even being investigated as a pivotal study in that setting. So I think we have a competitive advantage in that we can go to sites that, even with drugs in development, can follow them in this unique path. And same for intermediate risk. I think right now, it is becoming a bigger, expansive interest. But what I have seen, for example, CG Oncology has an intermediate-risk trial that looks like it is ahead of schedule and accrued very rapidly. I think there is a lot of interest from investigators in looking at intermediate-risk patients. So I expect us to enroll that pretty rapidly, ahead of schedule like CG did. Thanks for the question, Farzin. Farzin Hak: Got it. And then for the second-line high-grade settings, beyond the primary endpoint of CR rate at any time, has the FDA stipulated a minimum duration of follow-up required for all patients by submitting the NDA? Raj S. Pruthi: Another great question. They have not required a minimum of follow-up. They said they want to see CR any time, as you said, and durability of response, or duration of response. I think the wording they used, which I think is important, is they want to see the totality of the data. So they want to see do you have a response and is there some level of durability. I mean, they have not specified what that number is. Farzin Hak: Got it. Thank you so much. Operator: Thank you. Thank you, Farzin. Your next question is from Christopher with Lucent. Christopher: Hey, guys. Thanks for the question. I was just wondering, given the population differences between your Phase II and Phase III RESCUE, what are you expecting to see in terms of the CR rate at the three-month mark as well as what we should be benchmarking against? Sergio Traversa: Thank you, Christopher. Raj, do you want to take this one as well? Raj S. Pruthi: Yes. Sure. Yeah. Thanks, Christopher. Thanks for the question. So in the intermediate risk, we are looking at, and we have structured the trial to look at, the statistics around a two-year RFS of 75%. And that actually is reflected in the literature with gem-dose. I think with what we have seen in this population and with sustained release, we should exceed that, but that is our target number. That drives the statistics. It is an event-driven study. So that is kind of the driver. And with 128 events, it is the target. Regarding the BCG-unresponsive second-line, it is interesting that in first line, the first drug approved was valrubicin in 1998 at 8% 12-month CR, followed by Keytruda at 19% and then other agents at 24%. So I think I am glad that the FDA was not fixated on a certain number. But I think that number should be at those levels or lower than what we have seen in first-line therapy, just as a precedent. If that makes sense. Thanks for the question. Christopher: Got it. Operator: Our next question is from Kelsey Goodwin with Piper Sandler. Kelsey Goodwin: Hey, thanks so much for taking my question, and congrats on the recent clinical update. Regarding, I guess, specifically to that update, regarding the patient baseline characteristics and the CIS versus papillary split, how should we be comparing this data set to that of competitors with primarily CIS patients there? And any data to support that gem-dose looks similar in CIS and papillary patients? Sergio Traversa: Hi, Kelsey. It is Sergio here. Raj, it seems that this one also is for you. Raj S. Pruthi: Yeah. Great question, Kelsey. Starting with the last part of your question first. It is interesting as a clinician, you often think, okay, if the patient is BCG-unresponsive, this might be more virulent. But we do not often, I think, ask is it CIS versus papillary? Some people show pure CIS behaves better, but T1 actually worsens outcomes. So it is a mixed bag. It is actually interesting for gem-dose. There is an article by Steinberg in 2020 in the Journal of Urology that looked at heavily pretreated, basically BCG-unresponsive patients, and at twelve months, the RFS in those patients, or CRs, was 60% in the CIS population and 61% in papillary. So there is not a marked difference typically between them. But even if you go back and look at our data of what we showed, ours at twelve months is 80%, twelve-month CR at 84%. That does include four patients with CIS. We had four out of four with complete response at any time, two out of two at twelve months. Completely understood these are small numbers, but I think it still compares quite favorably. Even if you take NDV01 and the BCG-unresponsive population, our entire population including CIS, and compare it to the best-in-class categories, I think their twelve-month CR was 74%. So even taking our entire cohort, we have significantly higher, so I think it is still best in class. I hope I answered your question. Kelsey Goodwin: Yeah. No. That is super helpful. Thank you so much for that. And then maybe just one follow-up if I can. With respect to the intermediate-risk setting and that kind of market overall, how much do you think that market might need to be built out by these early launches, just given we have not had an approved agent until last year? Thanks so much. Raj S. Pruthi: You bet, Kelsey. Another great question. Right now, we mentioned it is about 75,000 to 80,000 patients with intermediate-risk disease. And if you look at the data now, only about 35% of those patients will receive adjuvant therapy. What is important in our studies and in CG’s study is that in our intermediate-risk population, we do include small, less than three-centimeter Ta high-grade patients. I think that is very important because 20% of the intermediate-risk disease is these high-grade Ta patients, and those are the ones probably more than anybody who need adjuvant therapy to prevent recurrence. So if we go back to what we call about 35% receiving an adjuvant therapy, I think it is exactly what you are alluding to. Right now, there is not an approved therapy. There is not a lot of data. There are not a lot of agents that can be reimbursed to the urologist in a buy-and-bill model, for example. I think that 35% number is going to only grow as you see data from programs like Moonlight, or from PIVOT-006, or from our intermediate study as we get data. It gives patients confidence that, hey, here is an agent that might reduce my risk of having another TURBT and gives urologists confidence that I have an agent that I can deliver in my office that will reduce TURBT risk for my patients. It is only going to go up. Kelsey Goodwin: That is great. Thank you so much. Sergio Traversa: Thank you, Kelsey. Operator: Thank you. This concludes our question-and-answer session. I would now like to hand the floor back over to Sergio Traversa for any closing remarks. Sergio Traversa: Well, the closing remarks is a big thank you to everybody that has allowed Relmada Therapeutics, Inc. to get where we are now. We created data with a drug that can really help patients with bladder cancer. We are looking forward to updating everybody on our progress. Thank you, and enjoy the rest of the day. Thank you. Operator: This concludes today's conference. You may disconnect your lines at this time. Thank you again for your participation.
