(Nasdaq: SKYE) (\u201cSkye\u201d) a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on unlocking new therapeutic pathways for obesity and other metabolic health disorders, today announced the topline data from its 26-week Phase 2a CBeyond\u2122 proof-of-concept study of nimacimab, its peripherally-restricted CB1 inhibitor antibody.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In CBeyond<sup>TM<\/sup>, the nimacimab monotherapy arm did not achieve the primary endpoint of weight loss compared to placebo (-1.52% vs. -0.26 for placebo, mITT<sup>1<\/sup>). Preliminary pharmacokinetic analysis showed an association between exposure and response, suggesting that the 200 mg, subcutaneous weekly dose was suboptimal as a monotherapy.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In the combination cohort, nimacimab 200 mg (subcutaneous, weekly) plus semaglutide demonstrated a clinically meaningful magnitude of weight loss compared to semaglutide alone (-13.2% vs -10.25%, p=0.0372, mITT), with no plateau being observed through Week 26. This finding supports potential further studies to evaluate combinations of nimacimab and incretin-based therapies.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">At the tested dose and exposure levels, nimacimab 200 mg demonstrated a favorable safety profile with placebo-like tolerability. In combination with semaglutide, there was no increase in gastrointestinal (GI) adverse events. Importantly, there were no increases in neuropsychiatric adverse events reported resulting from treatment with nimacimab.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cThe 200 mg monotherapy arm provided important pharmacokinetic insight, showing that lower-than-expected drug exposure may have limited the observed effect and informing the dose-ranging strategy we are developing,\u201d said Puneet Arora, MD, FACE, Chief Medical Officer of Skye Bioscience. \u201cAt the same time, the combination of nimacimab with semaglutide produced a clinically meaningful additional weight loss that exceeded semaglutide alone, with a favorable tolerability profile even in patients who achieved the highest exposure levels. With our preclinical data, toxicology safety margins, and PK modeling, we believe we have a path to support higher dosing, and we are evaluating the next stage of development to optimize dosing in potential future clinical trials.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cThis is the first clinical study to show that the combination of a CB1 inhibitor and a GLP-1 therapeutic can drive clinically meaningful additional weight loss beyond a GLP-1 drug alone,\u201d said Louis Aronne, MD, past President, The Obesity Society; past Chairman, American Board of Obesity Medicine; and clinical advisor to Skye. \u201cEqually important, although the sample size is small, nimacimab achieved this without neuropsychiatric or additive gastrointestinal adverse events. I believe these results warrant further evaluation of the therapeutic potential of this novel CB1 inhibitor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cGastrointestinal side effects remain a leading cause of discontinuation with obesity therapies,\u201d said Sean Wharton, MD, Director, Wharton Medical Clinic and clinical advisor to Skye. \u201cIt was notable that nimacimab did not increase GI adverse events while adding clinically meaningful weight loss in combination with semaglutide. In my view, a next study with higher nimacimab dosing is the logical step to fully define its role in clinical practice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>CBeyond<\/strong><br \/>\n        <sup><br \/>\n          <strong>TM<\/strong><br \/>\n        <\/sup><br \/>\n        <strong> Phase 2a <\/strong><br \/>\n        <strong>Topline Results<\/strong><br \/>\n        <strong> at 26 Weeks<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li style=\"margin-top:12pt;text-align:justify\">\n          <strong>Monotherapy dosed at 200 mg demonstrated lower than expected drug exposure.<\/strong> In the monotherapy arm, nimacimab 200 mg did not achieve the primary endpoint, with placebo-subtracted weight loss of -1.26% at week 26 (p=0.2699, mITT).

Patients were randomized across four arms, 2:2:1:1 to arms with weekly nimacimab 200 mg subcutaneously, placebo, nimacimab 200 mg plus semaglutide (Wegovy\u00ae), or placebo plus semaglutide, and were dosed weekly for 26 weeks. Patients not participating in a 26-week extension were monitored for 13 weeks post-treatment.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Patients who completed 26 weeks of treatment in the primary phase of the study were eligible to enroll in a 26-week extension for a potential full treatment duration of 52 weeks with a 13-week follow-up period. In the combination arms, patients will continue with blinded treatment with nimacimab or placebo and will continue receiving semaglutide (Wegovy\u00ae). Patients in the monotherapy arm will receive nimacimab 300 mg during the extension. Enrollment for the extension is complete. Skye expects to report data from the extension study in Q1 2026.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The 26 week treatment period was designed to evaluate efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics and exploratory endpoints, with the extension ongoing to further assess these endpoints, and follow-up to assess durability and weight regain. The trial population was broadly representative of adults living with obesity, with a mean BMI of ~36.84 kg\/m<sup>2<\/sup> and majority female participants.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Conference Call and Webcast Information<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Skye Bioscience will host a conference call and webcast to discuss these results at today at 8:00 a.m. ET.

Unlike previous CB1-targeting drugs, nimacimab is designed to avoid central nervous system penetration, potentially limiting neuropsychiatric side effects seen with small-molecule antagonists. As a non-incretin, non-peptide agent, nimacimab acts independently of the GLP-1 pathway and has also demonstrated additive or complementary effects in combination with incretin-based therapies in preclinical and clinical studies.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Skye Bioscience <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Skye is focused on unlocking new therapeutic pathways for metabolic health through the development of next-generation molecules that modulate G-protein coupled receptors.
