Current report
We have completed the analysis of safety, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic biomarker data from all four cohorts of the single ascending dose (“SAD”) portion of the clinical trial and from the three completed cohorts of the multiple ascending dose (“MAD”) portion of the clinical trial. In total, 86 healthy volunteer participants were observed, including 51 receiving CMP-001. CMP-001 demonstrated a favorable safety profile in both the SAD and MAD portions of the clinical trial, with no serious adverse events or discontinuations due to adverse events. Pharmacokinetic data similarly was observed to be consistent with expectations, demonstrating a dose-dependent increase in exposure (Cmax and AUC) with clear separation between groups and low-to-moderate variability in key pharmacokinetic parameters at all dose levels. There were no conclusive determinations of pharmacodynamic activity or non-activity in this healthy volunteer population, which we believe may have resulted from intrinsic variability in the ureagenesis rates of healthy individuals measured with the investigational 13C-sodium acetate test used in the study. We have made the strategic decision to pause new investment in our UCD program and to prioritize the development of our SYNGAP program. We continue to believe that CMP-001 has the potential to be the first disease-modifying therapy for the most prevalent UCDs and intend to pursue partnership opportunities to support the further development of CMP-001.
Current report
R&D expenses were $9.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease of $0.3 million was primarily due to a decrease of $0.3 million in clinical and preclinical expenses related to the Company’s UCD program. Other R&D expenses remained relatively comparable with the same period in the previous year.

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
Current report
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, was $1.6 million higher than the same period in 2024. The increase in cash used for operations was primarily due to the $2.0 million higher net change in assets and liabilities, partially offset by higher non-cash adjustments of $2.1 million and a lower net loss of $1.6 million. The higher net change in assets and liabilities was primarily due to the $1.6 million change in accounts payable due to the timing of payments and the increased costs of becoming a public company. The higher non-cash adjustment was primarily due to loss on the change in fair value of our tranche liability of $1.8 million and the impairment of the Boulder lease ROU asset of $0.5 million.
Current report
Valuation of Derivative Tranche Liability
Current report
In connection with our Private Placement in September 2025, we had a commitment and investors had an obligation to purchase securities in a second closing at a fixed price, if specified conditions are met. The obligation to issue additional securities at a future date was determined to be a freestanding derivative instrument and is accounted for as a liability. The derivative tranche liability was accounted for at fair value at the issuance date and remeasured at the end of each reporting period until the shares are issued or the obligation expires. Changes in the fair value of the derivative tranche liability are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Current report
The fair value of the derivative tranche liability was determined using a probability weighted model, which considered as inputs the probability of achieving tranche closing conditions, the estimated fair value of our common stock and a discount rate. We recognized a $1.8 million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, related to the change in fair value of the derivative tranche liability.

Previous wording
We are leveraging our RAP Platform to advance a preclinical program for the treatment of synaptic Ras GTPase activating protein 1 (“SYNGAP1”)-related disorders, a group of neurodevelopmental conditions caused by pathogenic variants in the SYNGAP1 gene that result in a haploinsufficient state, reducing SYNGAP protein levels by up to 50%. SYNGAP plays a critical role in cognitive development and synaptic function. Epilepsy is a common characteristic of these disorders and nearly all patients experience some degree of developmental delay and cognitive impairment. Incidence estimates vary significantly, ranging from one to 40 per 100,000 individuals. While we believe that SYNGAP1-related disorders remain underdiagnosed, we estimate that there are approximately 10,000 individuals living with these disorders in the United States. SYNGAP1-related disorders are reported to represent 0.5% to 1.0% of all intellectual disability cases, making them among the most common causes of intellectual disability in patients with epilepsy, and indicating that the patient population may be significantly larger than incidence estimates suggest. There are no FDA-approved, disease-modifying therapies for SYNGAP1-related disorders. Treatment is often limited to supportive physical, occupational and speech therapy. A combination of non-specific anti-seizure medications may be prescribed, though SYNGAP1-related disorders have proven difficult to control with available therapeutics. Up to 50% of patients do not adequately respond to medication, in which case implantable devices, such as those for vagus nerve stimulation, may offer incremental therapeutic benefit. We are advancing our CMP-SYNGAP program to address the significant unmet need by targeting the direct cause of SYNGAP1-related disorders, haploinsufficiency, which we believe is amenable to targeting through regRNAs. Our CMP-SYNGAP program is a novel approach that targets the SYNGAP1 gene at the transcriptional level to restore SYNGAP function and improve symptoms by utilizing an intrathecally delivered ASO. Upregulation of SYNGAP1 gene expression may increase SYNGAP protein levels in amounts sufficient to yield therapeutic benefit. Our preclinical studies demonstrated a dose-dependent increase in SYNGAP mRNA levels accompanied by an increase in SYNGAP protein expression. On May 16, 2025, we presented preclinical data from our SYNGAP program in an oral presentation at the 28th American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy Annual Meeting. We observed that intracerebroventricular injection of our lead development candidate, CMP-SYNGAP-01, restored SYNGAP protein levels to near normal range in haploinsufficient mice carrying a single copy of the human SYNGAP1 gene after a single dose and rescued motor defects and spatial learning defects following two doses. Additionally, we observed that biweekly intrathecal injections of CMP-SYNGAP-01 were well tolerated in cynomolgus monkeys and resulted in a significant increase in SYNG…

We are also evaluating our clinical candidate, CMP-CPS-001, for the treatment of the most prevalent urea cycle disorders (“UCDs”), in a Phase 1 clinical trial in healthy volunteers. UCDs are a group of severe, inherited metabolic diseases caused by mutations in the genes that encode one or more of the eight enzymes and transporters necessary to convert ammonia into urea. The inability of the body to properly metabolize ammonia leads to the accumulation of toxic levels in circulation, ultimately resulting in severe health outcomes, such as neurologic disability, seizure and death. CMP-CPS-001 is designed to improve urea cycle activity by amplifying expression of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (“CPS1”), an enzyme that catalyzes the first step of the urea cycle, by binding to a CPS1-specific regRNA. Our preclinical studies have demonstrated that modulating the activity of the target regRNA increases expression of the CPS1 gene, resulting in increased CPS1 enzyme levels, which allows for more ammonia to be converted into urea, thereby lowering ammonia levels to normal, healthy ranges. These preclinical studies also demonstrated that CMP-CPS-001 can increase the level of, or upregulate, the production of multiple enzymes responsible for converting ammonia into urea, potentially allowing us to address more than 85% of patients with UCDs. We have completed a planned interim analysis of safety and pharmacokinetic data from all four cohorts of the single ascending dose (“SAD”) portion of the clinical trial, and we have completed dosing of the first three cohorts from the multiple ascending dose (“MAD”) portion of the clinical trial, with no safety trends of concern observed to date. We have also submitted a clinical trial application in Europe for a Phase 1b expansion to enroll female participants who are heterozygous for a mutation of the OTC gene. We estimate that there are approximately 2,000 diagnosed female OTC heterozygotes in the United States who have inherited one copy of a gene with OTC-related changes and experience potentially addressable UCD symptoms. We expect to report data from all four cohorts of the SAD portion and the first three cohorts of the MAD portion of the clinical trial, including safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic biomarker data, in the fourth quarter of 2025 and to evaluate potential next steps for the further development of CMP-CPS-001 based on these data, which may include exploring potential partnership opportunities.

The change of $0.9 million was primarily due to a $1.8 million expense for the change in fair value of our derivative tranche liability associated with the second tranche of our private placement. This was partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in interest income due to higher average invested cash equivalent balances during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and a decrease in other expenses of $0.2 million primarily due to lower foreign exchange losses.
Previous wording
As of June 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of $39.1 million. Based on our current operating plan, we estimate that our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2025 will be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second quarter of 2026. However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could deplete our capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our capital resources will not be sufficient to fund operations through at least the next twelve months from the date the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2025 are issued based on our expected cash needs, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our future viability is dependent on our ability to generate cash from our operating activities or to raise additional capital to finance our operations. There is no assurance that we will succeed in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to us to fund continuing operations, if at all.

However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could deplete our capital resources sooner than we currently expect. Our future viability is dependent on our ability to generate cash from our operating activities or to raise additional capital to finance our operations. There is no assurance that we will succeed in obtaining sufficient funding on terms acceptable to us to fund continuing operations, if at all.

R&D expenses were $20.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase of $1.4 million was primarily due to an increase of $0.5 million in clinical and preclinical expenses related to the Company’s UCD clinical trial and SYNGAP preclinical work. There was also an increase of $0.5 million in professional and consulting fees due to increased utilization of external support for clinical operations. In addition, there was an increase of $0.3 million in personnel-related expenses due to lower offsetting personnel reimbursements under one of our collaboration agreements and due to annual merit-related salary increases and stock compensation expense.
