TITUSVILLE, N.J. (October 10, 2025) — Johnson & Johnson (NYSE: JNJ) announced today that 17 abstracts featuring new clinical and real-world data will be presented at the annual European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP) Congress, taking place October 11-14 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Presentations include the latest research from across the Company’s neuropsychiatry portfolio, including major depressive disorder (MDD), treatment-resistant depression (TRD), and schizophrenia.

“MDD is a complex disorder that can manifest in different ways for each individual, and the traditional one-size-fits-all treatment approach often results in mixed patient outcomes,” said Bill Martin, Ph.D., Global Neuroscience Therapeutic Area Head, Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine.^1,2 “At Johnson & Johnson, we are committed to advancing innovative and differentiated therapies through a targeted and patient-first approach, and our data at ECNP strongly reflects our relentless focus on this commitment.”

Key presentations include:

• New analysis of Phase 3 data evaluating the impact of investigational adjunctive CAPLYTA^® (lumateperone) on sexual function in patients with MDD (Poster PS04-3102).³
• An oral presentation highlighting findings from a sub-group analysis of Phase 3 data evaluating the efficacy of adjunctive seltorexant, an investigational first-in-class therapy, compared with adjunctive quetiapine extended release (XR) in European Union and United Kingdom patients with MDD with insomnia symptoms.⁴
• Findings from a post-hoc analysis of the ESCAPE-TRD study examining the association between baseline patient characteristics and reaching remission with SPRAVATO® (esketamine) CIII nasal spray versus quetiapine XR in patients with TRD (Poster PS02-1219).⁵
• Real-world safety data from the French ELLIPSE study of SPRAVATO^® (PS02-1111).⁶
• Results from a Delphi research study outlining expert consensus recommendations of European psychiatrists on key decision-making factors for continuation of SPRAVATO^® treatment in patients with TRD (Poster PS04-3215).⁷

Johnson & Johnson will present the following posters at ECNP Congress on October 12 from 8:00 – 8:30 a.m. CET (e-posters), October 13 from 12:35 – 2:00 p.m. CET, and October 14 from 12:35 – 2:00 p.m. CET.

ABOUT MAJOR DEPRESSIVE DISORDER (MDD)
MDD is one of the most common psychiatric disorders and a leading cause of disability worldwide, impacting an estimated 332 million people – or about 4 percent of the population.^8,9 In 2023, approximately 22 million adults in the U.S. had at least one major depressive episode.¹⁰ While depression is typically treated with a “one-size-fits-all” approach, no two cases are the same. MDD is a complex, heterogeneous disorder involving multiple regions of the brain and presenting with as many as 256 unique symptom combinations.^1,2 As a result, responses to treatment vary widely. With current standard-of-care oral antidepressants, 2 in 3 people living with MDD continue to experience residual or persistent symptoms.¹¹ Moreover, MDD is a risk factor for the development and worsening of a range of comorbidities, illustrating the importance of integrating mental and general health care.¹²

Insomnia is one of the most common symptoms of MDD, affecting more than 80 percent of people living with MDD.¹³ Disturbed sleep and insomnia symptoms have a significant impact on a patient’s quality of life and exacerbate the risk of depressive relapse and suicide.^14,15

Approximately one-third of adults with MDD will not respond to oral antidepressants alone and are considered to have treatment-resistant depression (TRD), which is often defined as inadequate response to two or more oral antidepressants that were administered at an adequate dose for an adequate duration.^16,17 TRD has a significant negative impact on the lives of those affected and has one of the highest economic burdens of all psychiatric disorders.¹⁷ Patients often cycle through multiple oral medications, waiting 4-6 weeks for potential relief.¹⁸ Based on the STAR*d study, after trying their third oral antidepressant, approximately 86 percent of patients do not achieve remission.¹⁸

ABOUT CAPLYTA^®
CAPLYTA^® (lumateperone) 42 mg is an oral, once daily atypical antipsychotic approved for the treatment of adults with schizophrenia, as well as depressive episodes associated with bipolar I or II disorder (bipolar depression), as monotherapy, and as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate.

While its exact mechanism of action is unknown, CAPLYTA^® is characterized by high serotonin 5-HT_2A receptor occupancy and lower amounts of dopamine D² receptor occupancy at therapeutic doses.

A supplemental new drug application (sNDA) for CAPLYTA^® as an adjunctive treatment for adults with major depressive disorder is currently under U.S. Food and Drug Administration review.

ABOUT SELTOREXANT
Seltorexant, an investigational first-in-class therapy, is a selective antagonist of the human orexin-2 receptor currently being developed as an adjunctive treatment for adults with MDD with insomnia symptoms. Seltorexant selectively antagonizes the orexin-2 receptors, potentially improving mood symptoms and restoring sleep without next-day sedation in patients with depression.¹⁹ When orexin-2 receptors are stimulated for too long or at inappropriate times, their activation can cause hyperarousal manifestations, including insomnia and excessive cortisol release, which may contribute to depression and insomnia.^20,21 Seltorexant is the only investigational therapy being studied in MDD that is believed to work by normalizing the overactivation of the orexin-2 receptors, thereby addressing the underlying biology that contributes to depression and causes insomnia symptoms.

ABOUT SPRAVATO^®
SPRAVATO^® (esketamine) CIII nasal spray is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration alone or in conjunction with an oral antidepressant for adults with MDD when they have inadequate response to at least two oral antidepressants (TRD) and depressive symptoms in adults with major depressive disorder with acute suicidal ideation or behavior in conjunction with an oral antidepressant. It is a non-selective, non-competitive antagonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and is believed to work differently than traditional antidepressants by acting on a pathway in the brain that affects glutamate. The mechanism by which esketamine exerts its antidepressant effect is unknown. To date, SPRAVATO^® has been approved in 79 markets and administered to more than 150,000 patients worldwide.

ABOUT SCHIZOPHRENIA
Schizophrenia is a complex, chronic brain disorder that affects how people think, feel, speak, and act. It affects up to an estimated 2.8 million adults in the U.S. yet remains widely misunderstood and insufficiently treated.²² Symptoms vary by person, but confusion and distortions in perceptions, emotions, and behavior are common.²³ Evidence shows that the first three to five years after diagnosis – “the critical period” – from symptom onset are key for a patient’s treatment, as this is when the condition progresses most rapidly.^24,25 A comprehensive treatment plan, which may include medication, therapy, and psychosocial services, can be critical in delaying the time to relapse for adults with schizophrenia.²⁶

ABOUT JOHNSON & JOHNSON’S SCHIZOPHRENIA PORTFOLIO
Johnson & Johnson’s portfolio of schizophrenia therapies offers the broadest range of oral and long-acting injectable treatment options to support each patient’s individual treatment journey. The Company’s long-acting injectable treatments for adults with schizophrenia provides the most varied range of dosing options and the longest-lasting schizophrenia treatments with each dose available, including INVEGA SUSTENNA^® (1-month paliperidone palmitate), INVEGA TRINZA^® (3-month paliperidone palmitate), and INVEGA HAFYERA^® (6-month paliperidone palmitate), all of which are administered in a clinical setting by a medical professional.^23,24

CAPLYTA^® is a once-daily oral therapy approved to treat adults with schizophrenia. A supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for CAPLYTA^® with long-term data evaluating the safety and efficacy of the medication for the prevention of relapse in schizophrenia was recently
submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

CAPLYTA^® IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

CAPLYTA^® (lumateperone) is indicated in adults for the treatment of schizophrenia and depressive episodes associated with bipolar I or II disorder (bipolar depression) as monotherapy and as adjunctive therapy with lithium or valproate.

Important Safety Information

Boxed Warnings:

· Elderly patients with dementia-related psychosis treated with antipsychotic drugs are at an increased risk of death. CAPLYTA is not approved for the treatment of patients with dementia-related psychosis.
· Antidepressants increased the risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in pediatric and young adults in short-term studies. All antidepressant-treated patients should be closely monitored for clinical worsening, and for emergence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The safety and effectiveness of CAPLYTA have not been established in pediatric patients.

Contraindications: CAPLYTA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to lumateperone or any components of CAPLYTA. Reactions have included pruritus, rash (e.g., allergic dermatitis, papular rash, and generalized rash), and urticaria.

Warnings & Precautions: Antipsychotic drugs have been reported to cause:

• Cerebrovascular Adverse Reactions in Elderly Patients with Dementia-Related Psychosis, including stroke and transient ischemic attack. See Boxed Warning above.
• Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS), which is a potentially fatal reaction. Signs and symptoms include: high fever, stiff muscles, confusion, changes in breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure, elevated creatinine phosphokinase, myoglobinuria (and/or rhabdomyolysis), and acute renal failure. Patients who experience signs and symptoms of NMS should immediately contact their doctor or go to the emergency room.
• Tardive Dyskinesia, a syndrome of uncontrolled body movements in the face, tongue, or other body parts, which may increase with duration of treatment and total cumulative dose. TD may not go away, even if CAPLYTA is discontinued. It can also occur after CAPLYTA is discontinued.
• Metabolic Changes, including hyperglycemia, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and weight gain. Hyperglycemia, in some cases extreme and associated with ketoacidosis, hyperosmolar coma or death, has been reported in patients treated with antipsychotics. Measure weight and assess fasting plasma glucose and lipids when initiating CAPLYTA and monitor periodically during long-term treatment.
• Leukopenia, Neutropenia, and Agranulocytosis (including fatal cases). Complete blood counts should be performed in patients with pre-existing low white blood cell count (WBC) or history of leukopenia or neutropenia. CAPLYTA should be discontinued if clinically significant decline in WBC occurs in absence of other causative factors.
• Decreased Blood Pressure & Dizziness. Patients may feel lightheaded, dizzy or faint when they rise too quickly from a sitting or lying position (orthostatic hypotension). Heart rate and blood pressure should be monitored and patients should be warned with known cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease. Orthostatic vital signs should be monitored in patients who are vulnerable to hypotension.
• Falls. CAPLYTA may cause sleepiness or dizziness and can slow thinking and motor skills, which may lead to falls and, consequently, fractures and other injuries. Patients should be assessed for risk when using CAPLYTA.
• Seizures. CAPLYTA should be used cautiously in patients with a history of seizures or with conditions that lower seizure threshold.
• Potential for Cognitive and Motor Impairment. Patients should use caution when operating machinery or motor vehicles until they know how CAPLYTA affects them.
• Body Temperature Dysregulation. CAPLYTA should be used with caution in patients who may experience conditions that may increase core body temperature such as strenuous exercise, extreme heat, dehydration, or concomitant anticholinergics.
• Dysphagia. CAPLYTA should be used with caution in patients at risk for aspiration.

Drug Interactions: CAPLYTA should not be used with CYP3A4 inducers. Dose reduction is recommended for concomitant use with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors.

Special Populations: Newborn infants exposed to antipsychotic drugs during the third trimester of pregnancy are at risk for extrapyramidal and/or withdrawal symptoms following delivery. Dose reduction is recommended for patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment.

Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in clinical trials with CAPLYTA vs. placebo were somnolence/sedation, dizziness, nausea, and dry mouth.

CAPLYTA is available in 10.5 mg, 21 mg, and 42 mg capsules.
