Activity Report Consistent with the Company’s prior guidance, topline results were announced in late 4Q’2022 from the Phase 2 randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-centre, dose-ranging PREVAIL Study in SAD in which the primary endpoint was not statistically met. However, the findings do indicate consistent trends favouring BNC210 compared to placebo in primary and multiple secondary endpoints, warranting a further and robust analysis of the PREVAIL dataset in order to assess the future development of BNC210 in SAD. The Company’s recent appointment of a new President & CEO, Spyridon ‘Spyros’ Papapetropoulos, MD, Ph.D., was timely given his extensive experience in CNS clinical development, which will facilitate the Bionomics team’s ongoing analysis of the PREVAIL Study data. The Company remains focused on conducting the analysis, including consulting with key opinion leaders, advisors and regulators, and is eager to share its findings upon reaching a conclusion and determining its path forward.

The Company also continued to closely manage its ongoing Phase 2b ATTUNE Study in PTSD including over-seeing the recurring Independent Safety Review Committee meetings and working with the Contract Research Organisation (“CRO”) to maximize the ongoing study enrollment. As part of these efforts, the ATTUNE Study has been expanded to include seven sites in the United Kingdom and these sites have recently begun enrolling study participants.

Finally, with the additional financing activities during the quarter, the Company has sufficient cash runway to support its ongoing activities and upcoming milestones with runway to at least mid-2024.
