Zynerba Pharmaceuticals Reports Fourth Quarter and Year End 2016 Financial Results and Operational Highlights

Conference call to be held today at 8:30 am ET

Devon, PA, March 27, 2017 – Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZYNE), a clinical-stage specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative transdermal synthetic cannabinoid treatments, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2016 and provided an overview of recent operational highlights.

“2016 was a year marked by tremendous progress for our lead development candidate, ZYN002 CBD gel, as we initiated Phase 2 trials for epilepsy, osteoarthritis and Fragile X syndrome.  I am pleased that we have completed enrollment in the epilepsy and osteoarthritis trials,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and CEO.  “We enter 2017 with great momentum and expect it to be a transformational year with several key milestones expected in the coming months, including top-line results from the three ZYN002 clinical trials and the commencement of our clinical program for ZYN001, our patent-protected pro-drug of THC in development for the treatment of fibromyalgia and peripheral neuropathic pain.”

Fourth Quarter 2016 and Recent Highlights

Completed Enrollment of Phase 2 STAR 1 Clinical Trial for ZYN002 CBD Gel in Adult Epilepsy Patients

Zynerba has completed enrollment in the Phase 2 STAR 1 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in adult patients with refractory epilepsy.  Of the 224 patients that have been screened, 170 patients have been randomized into the trial and there are 19 patients still in the eight-week baseline period.  The Company expects to meet or exceed the 180 patient target for randomization in this trial once all patients have completed the baseline period.  Patients are receiving either 195 mg or 390 mg of CBD in ZYN002 4.2% gel or placebo daily for 12 weeks.  The primary endpoint of the trial is the median reduction in seizure frequency per 28-day period compared to baseline. Top-line results are expected in July/August 2017.

Initiated Phase 2 STAR 2 Open-Label Extension Clinical Trial for ZYN002 CBD Gel in Adult Epilepsy Patients

In November 2016, Zynerba initiated an open-label clinical trial in adult patients with refractory epilepsy who complete the STAR 1 trial. Patients who elect to enroll into the STAR 2 trial receive treatment with ZYN002 for up to 52 weeks. The open-label clinical trial is designed to support long-term safety and tolerability of ZYN002 CBD gel, and is intended to evaluate how ZYN002 CBD gel is tolerated across a range of doses over long-term use. Of the 110 patients who have completed the STAR 1 trial to date, 106 have enrolled into STAR 2.

Completed Enrollment of Phase 2 STOP Clinical Trial for ZYN002 CBD Gel in Adult Osteoarthritis Patients

Zynerba has completed enrollment in the Phase 2 STOP randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial in osteoarthritis of the knee.   A Total of 320 patients have been randomized which exceeds the 300 patient randomization target for the trial.  Patients are receiving either 250 mg or 500 mg of CBD in ZYN002 4.2% gel or placebo daily for 12 weeks.  The primary endpoint of the trial is the change from baseline in the weekly mean of the 24-hour average worst pain score at week 12.  Top-line results are expected in July/August 2017.

Top-line results for the FAB-C Exploratory Phase 2 Clinical Trial of ZYN002 CBD Gel in Pediatric Fragile X Syndrome Patients Now Expected in Q3 2017

The Phase 2 exploratory clinical trial called FAB-C is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ZYN002 CBD gel in patients between the ages of 8-17 years with Fragile X syndrome (FXS) and is targeting to enroll 16 patients. The complex healthcare needs of children with FXS and the significant impact on families and caregivers have caused delays in patients enrolling into the study. Top-line data are now expected to be available in the third quarter of 2017 rather than the end of the first half of 2017.

Strengthened Balance Sheet with Successful Follow-On Offering Raising $58 Million in Gross Proceeds

In the first quarter of 2017, the Company completed a follow-on offering, selling 3,220,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $18.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $58.0 million. Net proceeds received after deducting underwriting and commissions and offering expenses were $54.3 million, which Zynerba intends to use for the clinical development of ZYN002 and ZYN001, general research and development, and general corporate purposes.

Presented Phase 1 Data on ZYN002 CBD Gel at the 70th Annual Meeting of the American Epilepsy Society 

At the 70th Annual Meeting of the American Epilepsy Society held in December, results from a Phase 1 double-blind, placebo-controlled single ascending dose study involving 32 healthy adults were presented in two  posters entitled, “Neuropsychological Effects of ZYN002 (Synthetic Cannabidiol) Transdermal Gel in Healthy Subjects and Patients With Epilepsy: Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Studies” and “Safety and Tolerability of ZYN002 (Synthetic Cannabidiol) Transdermal Permeation-Enhanced Gel in Healthy Subjects and Patients with Epilepsy:  Three Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Studies”, which illustrated that ZYN002 CBD gel was safe and well-tolerated at all dose levels ranging from 50 mg to 504 mg and did not produce impairment in critical areas of cognitive function often impacted by medications used to treat central nervous system conditions.

Strengthened Senior Management Team

In December, Marcel Bonn-Miller, PhD, joined Zynerba as Director of Cannabinoid Research. Dr. Bonn-Miller has spent over a decade investigating the interrelations between cannabis and various diseases and disorders.  Dr. Bonn-Miller is a world-renowned expert and has published well over 100 peer-reviewed empirical publications, and he serves on the editorial boards of six scientific journals.

In January 2017, Brian Rosenberger was appointed Vice President, Commercial.  Mr. Rosenberger is an experienced pharmaceutical executive who has held leadership roles in marketing, sales, business development, analytics and alliance management at Cipher Pharmaceuticals, Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Neurocrine Biosciences and GlaxoSmithKline.

Anticipated 2017 Milestones

ZYN002, a patent-protected, synthetic CBD formulated as a permeation-enhanced gel for transdermal delivery

• ZYN002 is currently being evaluated in three Phase 2 clinical trials in epilepsy patients with focal seizures, in osteoarthritis and in pediatric patients with FXS which has been designated as an Orphan drug by the US FDA. The Company expects to report top-line data for all three trials in 2017.

  • Top-line results from the Phase 2 STAR1 clinical trial in adult epilepsy patients with focal seizures and from the Phase 2 STOP clinical trials in patients with knee pain due to osteoarthritis are anticipated in July/August 2017;
  • Top-line results from the FAB-C exploratory Phase 2 clinical trial in pediatric patients with Fragile X syndrome are expected in the third quarter of 2017;

ZYN001, a patent-protected, pro-drug of THC that enables transdermal delivery via a patch

  • In the first half of 2017, Zynerba expects to initiate Phase 1 studies to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile and tolerability of ZYN001 in healthy volunteers
  • Zynerba expects to begin two Phase 2 clinical trials for ZYN001 in patients with fibromyalgia and peripheral neuropathic pain in the second half of the year.

Fourth Quarter and Year End 2016 Financial Results 

As of December 31, 2016, cash and cash equivalents totaled $31.0 million, compared to $41.5 million as of December 31, 2015.  During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company entered into an Open Market Sales Agreement with Jefferies LLC pursuant to which the Company sold and issued 794,906 shares of common stock in the open market at a weighted average selling price of $13.39 per share, for net proceeds of $10.0 million, $5.3 million of which were received and included as cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2016.  The remaining $4.7 million in net proceeds were received and included as cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016.

Research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2016 were $4.9 million, including stock-based compensation of $0.4 million. General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2016 were $1.8 million, including stock-based compensation expense of $0.5 million.  Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $6.9 million with basic and diluted net loss per share of $(0.71).

2017 Financial Outlook

In the first quarter of 2017, the Company completed a follow-on public offering, selling 3,220,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $18.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $58.0 million. Net proceeds received after deducting underwriting and commissions and offering expenses were $54.3 million.  Based on Zynerba’s cash position of $31.0 million in cash and cash equivalents at year-end 2016, and including proceeds from the Company’s follow-on public offering in the first quarter of 2017, the Company estimates that this balance is sufficient to develop five Phase 3 ready programs and, assuming feedback from the FDA supports a decision to move forward, initiate at least one Phase 3 program and fund operations and capital requirements into 2019.

Zynerba Pharmaceuticals Announces Completion of Enrollment for ZYN002 in Two Phase 2 Clinical Trials for Epilepsy and Osteoarthritis

Top-line data for both Phase 2 clinical trials remains on track to report in July/August 2017

Devon, PA, March 13, 2017 – Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZYNE), a clinical-stage specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of innovative transdermal synthetic cannabinoid treatments, today announced that it has completed enrollment in the Phase 2 STAR 1 (Synthetic Transdermal Cannabidiol for the Treatment of Epilepsy) clinical trial evaluating ZYN002 cannabidiol (CBD) gel in adult epilepsy patients with refractory focal seizures. The Company also announced that enrollment has completed in the Phase 2 STOP (Synthetic Transdermal Cannabidiol for the Treatment of Knee Pain due to Osteoarthritis) clinical trial evaluating ZYN002 CBD gel for the treatment of osteoarthritis.

In the double-blind, multi-center STAR 1 trial, 224 patients with refractory epilepsy were screened and the Company expects to exceed the target of randomizing 180 patients once the remaining patients complete the 8-week baseline period. The screen failure rate experienced for this trial has been between 10% – 15%.  The primary endpoint for the STAR 1 trial will assess the median percentage change in seizure frequency over the 12-week treatment period.

In the double-blind, multi-center STOP trial, 418 patients with osteoarthritis knee pain were screened and the Company has already exceeded the target of randomizing 300 patients.  Additional patients still in the baseline period are expected to be randomized as well and the screen failure rate experienced for this trial has been between 20% – 25%. The primary endpoint for the STOP trial will assess the change from baseline in the weekly mean of the 24-hour average of worst pain score.

“Reaching our target patient enrollment in the STAR 1 and STOP Phase 2 clinical studies represents key clinical milestones for Zynerba and we remain  on-track to report top-line data for each trial in July/August of this year,” said Armando Anido, chairman and chief executive officer. “The rapid enrollment and significant interest in our trials is highly encouraging. We will continue working diligently to move these potential treatments through clinical and regulatory development as efficiently as possible.”

In June 2016, the company initiated the Phase 2 STAR 1 (Synthetic Transdermal Cannabidiol for the Treatment of Epilepsy) clinical trial of ZYN002 CBD gel in refractory epilepsy patients with focal seizures, the most common form of epilepsy in adults. In August 2016, the Phase 2 STOP (Synthetic Transdermal Cannabidiol for the Treatment of Knee Pain due to Osteoarthritis) clinical trial in patients with knee pain due to osteoarthritis was initiated. In December 2016, the Company initiated the exploratory Phase 2 FAB-C (Treatment of Fragile X Syndrome Anxiety and Behavioral Challenges with CBD) clinical trial in children with Fragile X syndrome (FXS). Zynerba is also developing ZYN001, which utilizes a synthetically manufactured pro-drug of THC. A Phase 1 clinical study for ZYN001 is planned to begin in the first half of 2017.
