NEW YORK, Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LB Pharmaceuticals Inc (“LB Pharmaceuticals” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: LBRX) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended on September 30, 2025 and provided recent corporate updates.

“Following our recent initial public offering, we are well-positioned to continue executing on our strategy to advance LB-102 into a Phase 3 trial in acute schizophrenia, as well as a Phase 2 trial in bipolar depression,” said Heather Turner, Chief Executive Officer of LB Pharmaceuticals. “The robust and statistically significant results recently reported from our potentially registrational Phase 2 trial in acute schizophrenia confirm the meaningful clinical impact and differentiated tolerability of LB-102, which we believe has the potential to be the first benzamide antipsychotic drug approved for neuropsychiatric disorders in the United States. Our team is focused on advancing LB-102 towards FDA approval to expand treatment options for underserved patients.”

About LB-102

LB-102 is a Phase 3-ready oral, small molecule and a methylated derivative of amisulpride. In early 2025, LB Pharmaceuticals announced positive data from a four-week placebo-controlled, double-blinded, Phase 2 trial in patients with acute schizophrenia. The Phase 2 trial demonstrated statistically significant benefit versus placebo at all doses studied, a potentially class leading safety profile among D2 antagonists and partial agonists, and positive effects on negative symptoms and cognition. LB-102 is advancing into a Phase 3 clinical trial for acute schizophrenia and a Phase 2 clinical trial for bipolar depression. Additional expansion opportunities for LB-102 could include major depressive disorder (MDD), predominantly negative symptoms of schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease psychosis and agitation, as well as bipolar mania and cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia.
