1、J.P.Morgan Healthcare ConferenceJanuary 2023Sage Therapeutics 2023Safe Harbor Statement2 The slides presented today and the accompanying oral presentations contain forward-looking statements,which may be identified by the use of words such as“may,”“might,”“will,”“should,”“can,”,“expect,”“plan,”“anti
2、cipate,”“believe,”“estimate,”“project,”“intend,”“future,”“opportunity”,“goal”,“mission”,“potential,”“target”,or“continue,”and other similar expressions.Forward-looking statements in this presentation include statements regarding:our clinical development plans,including expected timelines for activit
3、ies and our expectations as to potential results;our belief that our NDA for zuranolone will be accepted and the possibility of priority review;the potential for approval and launch of zuranolone and potential timelines;our belief in the potential benefit and profile of zuranolone and in its potenti
4、al to be successful and to meet an unmet need in the treatment of MDD and PPD;the potential for commercialization of zuranolone and our commercialization plans,including plans to help enable access;our expectations as to the types of MDD patients who may benefit from zuranolone,if approved;the poten
5、tial for success of our other product candidates in various indications,including the potential profile and benefit of our other product candidates;our estimates as to the number of patients with disorders and diseases of interest to us and that we hope to help and the potential market for our produ
6、ct candidates,if approved;the goals,opportunity,mission and vision for business;and our views with respect our financial strength and potential value creation opportunities.These forward-looking statements are neither promises nor guarantees of future performance,and are subject to a variety of risk
7、s and uncertainties,many of which are beyond our control,which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in these forward-looking statements,including the risk that:The FDA may not accept our NDA for zuranolone for review or may accept the filing for review but not gran
8、t approval or may grant approval for a narrower indication than we expect or with unexpected limitations.The FDA may ask for additional clinical trials,nonclinical studies or other data in order for us to file for or obtain regulatory approval of zuranolone.The FDA may not grant priority review of o
9、ur NDA for zuranolone.Our expectations for timing of review of our NDA and of launch of zuranolone,if approved,may not be accurate.The FDA may ultimately decide that the design or results of our clinical trials for our product candidates are not sufficient to successfully file for or obtain regulato
10、ry approval.Our clinical trials may not meet their primary endpoints or key secondary endpoints.Success in non-clinical studies or in prior clinical trials of our product candidates may not be repeated or observed in ongoing,planned or future studies involving the same compound or other product cand
11、idates.Non-clinical and clinical results from ongoing or future trials may not support further development of the product candidate or filing for or obtaining regulatory approval on the timelines we expect or at all and we may be required to conduct additional clinical trials or nonclinical studies
12、which may not be successful.We may experience slower than expected enrollment in our clinical trials or may encounter other delays or problems,including in analyzing data or requiring the need for additional analysis,data or patients,and such issues with any trial could cause delay in completion of
13、the trial,availability of results and timing of future activities.We may encounter unexpected safety or tolerability issues with respect to any of our product candidates or marketed products;we may encounter different or more severe adverse events at the higher doses,different frequency or length of
14、 dosing or in new indications we are studying or may study in ongoing or planned trials.At any stage,regulatory authorities may ask for additional clinical trials,nonclinical studies or other data in order for us to proceed further in development or to file for or obtain regulatory approval.Other de
15、cisions or actions of the FDA or other regulatory authorities may affect the initiation,timing,design,size,progress and cost of clinical trials and our ability to proceed with further development.Even if zuranolone is approved,we may not achieve market acceptance or use of zuranolone in the MDD and
16、PPD patient types we expect and we may not achieve reimbursement of zuranolone at the levels or with the type of access we expect.The benefit and safety profile of zuranolone in clinical practice,if approved,may not meet our expectations.We may not be successful in execution of our planned commercia
17、lization activities or we may change our plans.We may never be successful or achieve our goals with respect to commercialization of zuranolone,if approved.Even if zuranolone or our other product candidates are successfully developed and approved,the number of patients with the diseases or disorders
18、our products treat or the subset of such patients we believe will use our products,the need for new treatment options,and the actual market for such products may be smaller than our current estimates.The anticipated benefits of our collaborations,including our collaboration with Biogen,may never be
19、achieved.The need to align with our collaborators may hamper or delay our development and commercialization efforts or increase our costs;our business may be adversely affected and our costs may increase if any of our key collaborators fails to perform its obligations or terminates our collaboration
20、.We may not be able to obtain and maintain adequate intellectual property protection or other forms of data and marketing exclusivity for our products,or to defend our patent portfolio against challenges from third parties.We may face competition from others developing products or with approved prod
21、ucts for similar uses as those for which our product candidates are being developed.Our operating expenses may be higher than forecasted,our revenues may be lower than we expect,or we may face unexpected expenditures,which could cause us to change our plans.We may need or choose to raise additional
22、funding,which may not be available on acceptable terms,or at all.We may not be able to establish and maintain key business relationships with third parties on acceptable terms or we may encounter problems with the performance of such third parties.We may encounter technical and other unexpected hurd
23、les in the manufacture,development or commercialization of our products.Any of the foregoing or other factors may negatively impact our ability to achieve our goals,mission,opportunities,plans or expectations for our business.For additional disclosure regarding these and other risks Sage faces,see t
