– Data support the long-term safety and effectiveness of Zygel –

– Greatest improvements seen in those with complete methylation of their FMR1 gene –

Devon, PA, May 11, 2022 — Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZYNE), the leader in innovative pharmaceutically-produced transdermal cannabinoid therapies for rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, is presenting an oral podium presentation at the International Society for Autism Research Annual Meeting (INSAR 2022), being held both in-person and virtually May 11-14, 2022, from Austin, TX. A copy of the presentation will be made available on the Zynerba corporate website following the presentation on May 12, 2022, at 4:30 p.m. ET at http://zynerba.com/publications/.

The presentation titled, “Long-Term Safety and Sustained Efficacy of ZYN002 Cannabidiol Transdermal Gel in Children and Adolescents with Fragile X Syndrome (ZYN2-CL-017),” includes data from 240 patients and demonstrates the long-term safety and efficacy of Zygel in children and adolescents with FXS.

The study includes patients who entered the trial from two completed trials with Zygel: CONNECT-FX, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trial, and FAB-C, the initial open-label Phase 2 trial in FXS. The efficacy data were evaluated through 15 months of treatment and demonstrated improvements in both ABC-C_FXS Social Avoidance and Irritability subscales. Patients with complete methylation of their FMR1 gene who completed CONNECT-FX and matched the primary efficacy population in the ongoing confirmatory RECONNECT trial achieved and maintained clinically meaningful change in ABC-C_FXS Social Avoidance, and demonstrated similar improvements in ABC-C_FXS Irritability subscale scores. These finding support the design enhancements that were made for RECONNECT.

Zygel was well tolerated in patients, with a median duration of exposure of 16 months (range 21 days to 38 months). Adverse events potentially related to Zygel were reported in 12.9% of patients; the most common reported in 6.7% of patients was application site pain which resolved quickly and was mild in the majority of cases.

“The interim results from this open-label extension trial support the long-term safety and effectiveness of Zygel in children and adolescents with Fragile X syndrome, with the greatest improvements seen in those with complete methylation of their FMR1 gene,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zynerba. “We are excited by the potential that Zygel may offer for patients with FXS.”

About Zygel
Zygel is the first and only pharmaceutically-manufactured cannabidiol formulated as a patent-protected permeation-enhanced clear gel, designed to provide controlled drug delivery into the bloodstream transdermally (i.e. through the skin). Recent studies suggest that cannabidiol may modulate the endocannabinoid system and improve certain behavioral symptoms associated with neuropsychiatric conditions. Zygel is an investigational drug product in development for the potential treatment of behavioral symptoms associated with Fragile X syndrome (FXS), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q). The Company has received orphan drug designation for cannabidiol, the active ingredient in Zygel, from the FDA and the European Commission in the treatment of FXS and by the FDA for the treatment of 22q. Additionally, Zygel has been designated a Fast Track development program for treatment of behavioral symptoms of FXS.

DEVON, Pa., March 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZYNE), the leader in innovative pharmaceutically-produced transdermal cannabinoid therapies for rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2021, and provided an overview of recent operational highlights and a pipeline update.

“In 2022, we look to build on last year’s progress as we continue to enroll patients in our confirmatory pivotal Phase 3 trial in Fragile X syndrome, initiate a Phase 3 program in autism spectrum disorder and report topline results in our Phase 2 trial in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zynerba. “We are committed to achieving our goal of bringing the first pharmaceutical product indicated for the treatment of behavioral symptoms of Fragile X syndrome to market, as well as advancing Zygel in other rare and near rare neuropsychiatric indications.”

Operational Highlights and Pipeline Update

Zygel in Fragile X Syndrome (FXS)

• In February 2022, the European Commission granted orphan drug designation to cannabidiol, the active ingredient in Zygel, for the treatment of FXS. As previously announced, the Company believes, based on the scientific advice of the European Medicines Agency, that the successful completion of the current development program for Zygel in FXS will satisfy the requirements of a marketing authorization application in the European Union.
• The Company continues to expect topline results from RECONNECT, a confirmatory pivotal Phase 3 trial of Zygel in patients with FXS, in the second half of 2023. The Company believes that the results from RECONNECT, if positive, will be sufficient to support the submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) for Zygel in patients with FXS.

Provides 10-year market exclusivity in EU upon regulatory approval

Devon, PA, February 28, 2022 — Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZYNE), the leader in innovative pharmaceutically-produced transdermal cannabinoid therapies for rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, today announced that the European Commission (EC) has granted orphan drug designation to cannabidiol, the active ingredient in its transdermal gel, Zygel™, for the treatment of Fragile X syndrome (FXS).

“Orphan drug designation by the EC is another important milestone for Zygel,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zynerba. “It underscores the urgent, unmet medical need for patients diagnosed with Fragile X syndrome, and will benefit us as we continue to advance our clinical programs and prepare to bring Zygel to market.”

Zynerba is currently enrolling patients in RECONNECT, a confirmatory pivotal Phase 3 trial of Zygel in children and adolescents with FXS, and continues to expect topline results from this trial in the second half of 2023. As previously announced, the Company believes, based on the EMA’s scientific advice, that the successful completion of the current development program for Zygel in FXS will satisfy the requirements of a marketing authorization application in the European Union (EU).

Orphan drug designation is granted to medicines that treat, prevent or diagnose a life-threatening or chronically debilitating rare disease, with a prevalence in the EU of not more than 5 in 10,000, and with either no currently approved method of diagnosis, prevention or treatment or with significant benefit to those affected by the disease. The designation potentially provides certain benefits to Zynerba, including 10-year EU market exclusivity upon regulatory approval, if received, reductions in EMA application fees, and access to protocol assistance.

The Company believes that there are approximately 105,000 patients with FXS in the EU and approximately 121,000 in Europe if the United Kingdom (UK) is included. Approximately 60% of all patients are believed to be completely methylated, which indicates that there are approximately 73,000 patients with FXS who are completely methylated in the EU and UK.

As previously disclosed, Zygel has also been granted orphan drug designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of FXS and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. Additionally, the FDA has granted Fast Track designation for Zygel for the treatment of behavioral symptoms associated with FXS. Based on latest census data available, we believe there are approximately 78,000 patients with FXS in the U.S., and approximately 47,000 of those patients are completely methylated.

Zygel is the first and only pharmaceutically-manufactured cannabidiol formulated as a patent-protected permeation-enhanced clear gel, designed to provide controlled drug delivery into the bloodstream transdermally (i.e. through the skin). Recent studies suggest that cannabidiol may modulate the endocannabinois system and improve certain behavioral symptoms associated with neuropsychiatric conditions.

Zygel has been granted orphan drug designation by the FDA and the EC in the treatment of FXS and by the FDA for the treatment of 22q. Additionally, Zygel has been designated a Fast Track development program for treatment of behavioral symptoms of FXS.

About Fragile X Syndrome (FXS)
FXS is a rare genetic developmental disability that is the leading known cause of both inherited intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder, affecting 1 in 3,600 to 4,000 males and 1 in 4,000 to 6,000 females. It is the most common inherited intellectual disability in males and a significant cause of intellectual disability in females, and the leading genetic cause of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The disorder negatively affects synaptic function, plasticity and neuronal connections, and results in a spectrum of intellectual disabilities and behavioral symptoms, such as social avoidance and irritability. In the U.S., there are approximately 78,000 people suffering with FXS, and approximately 121,000 in the EU and UK. We believe that approximately 60% of all patients with FXS have complete methylation of their FMR1 gene.

Topline data from Phase 2 INSPIRE trial expected mid-year 2022

Devon, PA, Feb. 28, 2022 — Zynerba Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZYNE), the leader in innovative pharmaceutically-produced transdermal cannabinoid therapies for rare and near-rare neuropsychiatric disorders, today announced the completion of enrollment for the 14-week Phase 2 INSPIRE (Assessing the Impact of Zygel [Transdermal CBD Gel] on Pediatric Behavioral and Emotional Symptoms of 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome) trial of Zygel in the treatment of behavioral symptoms of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q) in children and adolescents. The Company continues to expect topline data from this trial mid-year 2022. The Company has previously received orphan drug designation for Zygel in 22q from the FDA.

“The completion of enrollment in our INSPIRE trial is an important step forward in advancing Zygel as a potential new treatment option for patients suffering from 22q,” said Armando Anido, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Zynerba. “Pending results from the INSPIRE trial and subsequent discussion with the FDA on the regulatory path forward, we plan to advance our clinical development program in 22q with Zygel. We are thankful for the combined efforts of our researchers, investigators and the patient and caregiver community.”

The 14-week INSPIRE trial is an open-label, multi-dose, Phase 2 clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Zygel in children and adolescents (ages six through 17) with genetically-confirmed 22q. Enrolled patients receive weight-based doses of 250 mg daily or 500 mg daily of Zygel. The efficacy assessments include the Aberrant Behavior Checklist-Community (ABC-C), the Anxiety, Depression and Mood Scale (ADAMS), the Qualitative Caregiver Reported Behavioral Problem Survey, and Clinical Global Impression – Severity and Improvement. A total of 20 patients have been enrolled in the INSPIRE trial.

About 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q)
As the second most common chromosomal disorder after Down syndrome, 22q is caused by a small missing piece of the 22nd chromosome. The deletion occurs near the middle of the chromosome at a location designated q11.2. It is considered a mid-line condition, with physical symptoms including characteristic palate abnormalities, heart defects, immune dysfunction, and esophageal/GI issues, as well as debilitating neuropsychiatric and behavioral challenges. Anxiety is among the most common neuropsychiatric symptoms of 22q and researchers have found that for children with 22q, anxiety is linked to poorer adaptive behaviors such as self-care and communication skills that affect daily life. Children with 22q also experience withdrawn behavior, ADHD, cognitive impairment, and autism spectrum disorder that affect communication and social interaction. Later in life, they are at an increased risk of developing mental illnesses such as schizophrenia. It is estimated that 22q has a prevalence rate of approximately one in 4,000 people in the U.S.^1,2, suggesting that there are approximately 83,000 people living with 22q in the U.S.
