Item 7.01     Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company announced data from a Phase 3 RESILIENT trial of its Tonmya™ (TNX-102 SL, cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) product candidate for the management of fibromyalgia in a poster presentation (the “Presentation”) at the International Association for the Study of Pain 2024 World Congress on Pain (“IASP”). A copy of the press release which discusses this matter is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.01, and incorporated herein by reference. A Copy of the Presentation is furnished hereto as Exhibit 99.02 and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibits 99.01 and 99.02 attached hereto, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the United States Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.

 

Item 8.01.     Other Events.

 

On August 12, 2024, the Company presented data from the Presentation at the IASP. The Presentation, entitled, “Targeting Fibromyalgia Non-Restorative Sleep with Bedtime TNX-102 SL (Sublingual Cyclobenzaprine HCl): Results of the Positive Phase 3 RESILIENT Trial Consistent with Syndromal Improvement,” presented a new post hoc analysis showing correlations between improvements in pain and sleep quality at Week 14 in both treatment groups of the Resilient trial. The Company believes that these findings are consistent with the hypothesis that improving sleep quality may lead to a corresponding improvement in pain, supporting the targeting of sleep to achieve syndromal improvement in fibromyalgia.
