Psychiatry Month in Review: November 2024

Intra-Cellular Therapies submitted an sNDA to the FDA for lumateperone as an adjunctive therapy for MDD, with phase 3 studies showing significant symptom reduction. Supernus Pharmaceuticals presented phase 2a data on SPN-820, showing rapid depressive symptom reduction and decreased suicidal ideation. Teva announced phase 3 SOLARIS study results showing TEV-749 improved social functioning in schizophrenia patients. Intra-Cellular Therapies also reported lumateperone delayed relapse in schizophrenia patients. However, emraclidine did not show significant symptom reduction in phase 2 trials.
