Overview We are cultivating a differentiated neuroscience company, rooted in innovation and driven by a commitment to addressing the unmet needs of patients living with neurological diseases. To date, we have focused on rare neurological diseases with a growing portfolio now spanning sleep/wake, rare epilepsy, and neurobehavioral and we are harnessing scientific insights and pioneering approaches to advance meaningful treatments that help patients thrive. In July 2017, we entered into a License Agreement (as amended, the “2017 LCA”) with Bioprojet Société Civile de Recherche (“Bioprojet”) whereby we acquired the exclusive right to commercialize the pharmaceutical compound pitolisant. Our lead product, WAKIX® (pitolisant) (“WAKIX”), is a first-in-class therapy with a novel mechanism of action designed to enhance histamine signaling in the brain by binding to H 3 receptors. Since its initial FDA approval in 2019 for excessive daytime sleepiness (“EDS”) in adult patients with narcolepsy and subsequent approvals for cataplexy in adult patients in 2020, EDS in pediatric patients six years and older in 2024 and cataplexy in pediatric patients six years and older in 2026, WAKIX has continued to reshape the treatment landscape for narcolepsy and remains the only FDA-approved treatment for narcolepsy that is not scheduled as a controlled substance by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (“DEA”). Beyond narcolepsy, we have taken a mechanistic-based approach to expanding the reach of pitolisant, advancing late-stage clinical programs exploring pitolisant in idiopathic hypersomnia (“IH”), Prader-Willi syndrome (“PWS”) and myotonic dystrophy type 1 (“DM1”) and continue to grow our impact in other rare neurological diseases. In July 2022, we entered into a License and Commercialization Agreement with Bioprojet (the “2022 LCA”) whereby we obtained exclusive rights to manufacture, develop and commercialize one or more next generation pitolisant based products in the United States and Latin America. Two of the next generation formulations, pitolisant Gastro-Resistant (“Pitolisant GR”) and pitolisant High-Dose (“Pitolisant HD”) are currently in clinical development. In April 2024, we expanded into orexin science through a sublicense agreement with Bioprojet for an orexin 2 receptor agonist (“BP1.15205”) in preclinical development for narcolepsy and other potential indications (the “Sublicense”). Under the Sublicense, we obtained the exclusive right to develop, manufacture and commercialize BP1.15205 in the United States and Latin American territories, which are rights originally licensed from Teijin Pharma, the innovator of BP1.15205. We further broadened our portfolio into rare epilepsy with the acquisition of Epygenix Therapeutics, Inc., adding global rights to develop, manufacture and commercialize EPX-100, a serotonin (5HT-2) receptor agonist , and EPX-200, a selective 5HT-2C agonist. EPX-100 is in two Phase 3 registrational trials, one each for Dravet Syndrome (“DS”) and Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (“LGS”), and EPX-200 is in the pre-IND phase for developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (“DEEs”). In June 2025, we entered into a research collaboration, option and license agreement (the “CiRC Agreement”) with a related party, CiRC Biosciences, Inc. (“CiRC”). Under this agreement, Harmony and CiRC will collaborate on the research and development of two discovery-stage candidates, CBS105 for treatment-resistant narcolepsy and CBS104 for refractory epilepsy (together the “Candidates”), using cell replacement therapy for the treatment of refractory epilepsies and treatment-resistant narcolepsy. Our innovative portfolio of assets reflects our dedication to novel science, innovative therapies and excellence in delivering these treatments to patients with serious medical conditions who have few or no available options.
