CLINICAL HIGHLIGHTS
Lumateperone:
In these studies, lumateperone robustly met the primary endpoint by demonstrating reduction in the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score compared to placebo plus antidepressants at Week 6. Results for the primary endpoint are summarized as follows:
Primary Endpoint: Change from baseline vs. placebo on the MADRS Total Score at Week 6 (modified intent-to-treat study population) | |||||

Similarly, in both pivotal studies, lumateperone met the key secondary endpoint in the study by demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful reduction in the Clinical Global Impression Scale for Severity of Illness (CGI-S). Statistically significant efficacy was also seen in both studies in the patient reported Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology Self-Report (QIDS-SR) scale, a self-reported measure of symptom severity of depression.
Lumateperone was generally safe and well-tolerated in these studies and adverse events were similar to those seen in prior studies of lumateperone in bipolar depression, MDD with mixed features, and schizophrenia. In Study 501 and Study 502, mean changes in key metabolic parameters, including glucose, insulin, triglycerides, and total, LDL and HDL cholesterol, were similar between lumateperone and placebo. Importantly, mean changes in weight were also similar to placebo.
Other pipeline programs:
Lenrispodun (ITI-214) Parkinson’s disease (PD) program: Our Phase 2 clinical trial is ongoing with topline results anticipated in 2025. The objective of this study is to evaluate improvements in motor symptoms in patients with PD. Changes in cognition and inflammatory biomarkers are also being assessed.
ITI-1020 cancer immunotherapy program: Our Phase 1 single ascending dose study in healthy volunteers is ongoing. The objective of this study is to evaluate pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of different doses of ITI-1020.

About CAPLYTA (lumateperone)
CAPLYTA 42 mg is an oral, once daily atypical antipsychotic approved in adults for the treatment of schizophrenia and the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar I or II disorder (bipolar depression) as monotherapy and as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate. While the mechanism of action of CAPLYTA is unknown, the efficacy of CAPLYTA could be mediated through a combination of antagonist activity at central serotonin 5-HT2A receptors and postsynaptic antagonist activity at central dopamine D2 receptors.
Lumateperone is being studied for the treatment of major depressive disorder, and other psychiatric and neurological disorders. Lumateperone is not FDA-approved for these disorders.
