Phase 2a trial of RAP-219 in refractory focal epilepsy fully enrolled and on track for topline results in September 2025 BOSTON and SAN DIEGO, June 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rapport Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: RAPP) ('Rapport' or the 'Company'), a clinical-stage biotechnology company dedicated to the discovery and development of small molecule precision medicines for patients with neurological or psychiatric disorders, today will host its inaugural Investor and Analyst Day, featuring presentations from Rapport's executive team on the Company's strategic priorities and updates from its clinical pipeline, including progress on the RAP-219 Phase 2a trial in focal epilepsy. The event's agenda also includes a fireside chat with key opinion leader and professor of Neurology at NYU Langone's Comprehensive Epilepsy Center, Jacqueline French, M.D., hosted by Rapport's Chief Medical Officer, Jeffrey Sevigny, M.D. A livestream of the event and presentation materials will be available starting at 2:45 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) today and can be accessed by visiting 'News & Events' in the Investors section of the Company's website: 'Our Phase 2a trial of RAP-219 in refractory focal epilepsy is now fully enrolled, and we remain on track to report topline results in September 2025,' said Abraham N. Ceesay, Chief Executive Officer of Rapport Therapeutics. 'This will mark a major milestone for our lead program and an opportunity to demonstrate the strength of our precision neuroscience approach. We're excited to share additional details about the trial ahead of the readout and honored to be joined by Dr. French, principal investigator of our RAP-219 epilepsy trial, who will provide valuable expert insight on the trial design and unmet need in focal epilepsy. Today's event allows us to further underscore the potential of RAP-219 as a differentiated therapeutic with broad clinical and commercial potential.' Highlights of Rapport's Investor and Analyst Day event include the following: Phase 2a trial of RAP-219 in refractory focal epilepsy The Phase 2a trial of RAP-219 in refractory focal epilepsy is now fully enrolled. This proof-of-concept trial, designed with input from leading epilepsy experts, uses intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) data from the RNS System to access RAP-219's potential effect on long episodes (LEs), an objective biomarker shown to correlate with clinical seizures (CSs). Enrolled patients' baseline characteristicsPreliminary baseline characteristics of the first 14 patients enrolled—those for whom baseline data are available—indicate that the trial population is representative of patients historically enrolled in registrational refractory focal epilepsy trials. Baseline Characteristics of First 14 Patients Enrolled Median(range) Median(1st to 4th quartile range) Age 37 (20-61) CS frequency per 28 days in 4-week prospective baseline 10 (4.25-18.25) Sex (n) 7F/7M LE frequency per 28 days in 12-week baseline (8-week retrospective + 4-week prospective) 51 (21-194) Age at first seizure 19 (0.5-31) Concordance between LEs and electrographic seizure (rated by an independent reviewer) 92% (71-96) Years since RNS implantation 4.4 (1.4-10.2) Concomitant antiseizure medications 3 Anticipated analysis of Phase 2a topline dataThe Company expects to provide the following data analysis when topline results are reported in September 2025: Primary endpoint analysis: Proportion of patients achieving ≥30% reduction in LEs compared with 12-week baseline period Median percent change in LE frequency compared with 12-week baseline period Key secondary endpoint analysis: Median percent change in CS frequency compared with 4-week prospective baseline Proportion of patients achieving ≥50% reduction in CSs compared with 4-week prospective baseline Treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) incidence and grade RAP-219 Phase 1 development update Consolidated Phase 1 safety summary As disclosed in January, a total of four Phase 1 trials have been conducted—a single ascending dose trial, two multiple ascending dose trials, and a multiple ascending dose human positron emission tomography (PET) trial. Across these trials, 100 healthy volunteers have been exposed to RAP-219. The Company's update includes data from the three completed Phase 1 multiple dose trials, including the PET trial from which final data were not available at the time of the Company's January disclosure. Final aggregate data (n=64) across the multiple dose trails continue to reinforce RAP-219's differentiated tolerability: All TEAEs were Grade 1 or 2 No serious adverse events (SAEs), nor clinically significant laboratory, vital signs, or electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities TEAEs occurred early in dosing and resolved without further action Most common TEAEs: headache (n=12), dry mouth (n=5), brain fog (n=5), and fatigue (n=5) Three discontinuations Upcoming catalysts September 2025: RAP-219 Phase 2a topline readout in focal epilepsy Q3 2025: Initiation of RAP-219 Phase 2a trial in bipolar mania 2H 2025: Update on the Company's diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain program 1H 2027: RAP-219 Phase 2a topline readout in bipolar mania Cash runway guidance As of March 31, 2025, Rapport reported $285.4 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, excluding restricted cash. These funds are expected to support operations through the end of 2026. About RAP-219RAP-219 is a clinical-stage AMPA receptor (AMPAR) negative allosteric modulator (NAM) designed to achieve neuroanatomical specificity through its selective targeting of a receptor associated protein (RAP) known as TARPγ8, which is associated with neuronal AMPARs. Whereas AMPARs are distributed widely in the central nervous system, TARPγ8 is expressed only in discrete regions, including the hippocampus and neocortex, where focal seizures often originate. By contrast, TARPγ8 has minimal expression in the hindbrain, where drug effects are often associated with intolerable adverse events. With this precision approach, the Company believes RAP-219 has the potential to provide a differentiated profile as compared to traditional neuroscience medications. Due to the role of AMPA biology in various neurological disorders and the selective targeting of TARPγ8, the Company believes RAP-219 has pipeline-in-a-product potential and is evaluating the compound as a transformational treatment for patients with focal epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and peripheral neuropathic pain.

Let's fix Craighall Park's storm-damaged Blue Bridge
In February, JRA needed R16 billion to fix bridges. This is way beyond the R8.49 billion capital expenditure budget for the entire city. With so much infrastructure that needs fixing, the Joburg Road Agency (JRA) has unsurprisingly not rushed to repair the storm-damaged Blue Bridge across the Braamfontein Spruit in Craighall Park. The delay is seriously affecting a wide Delta Park community. After floodwaters bashed the footbridge on the night of 5 March, I asked for emergency funding. Although the bridge was officially closed on 7 March, it's still in use. So, too, are nearby makeshift crossings where folk put their lives in danger. Before 2006, there was no bridge here. It was dangerous. Jennifer Manale, 36, drowned after being swept away while trying to cross upstream from the Blue Bridge in 2004. Her body was recovered 15km downstream. Hence the original motivation for the bridge was a 'safe crossing for domestic workers'. It's still a major thoroughfare for countless pedestrian commuters but the existence of the bridge has vastly increased business and recreational activities in the area. ALSO READ: Who do you trust? The crisis of media credibility Jozi Trail cyclists and Park Runners use it, alongside dog walkers, horse riders and many others who enjoy this great green lung in the northern suburbs. Businesses large and small are affected by the closure. These include cafés, stables, a trader who sells blankets and dogs' beds, a dealer in artefacts made from wire and beads; an artist selling paintings, and a mobile coffee truck frequented by walker President Cyril Ramaphosa. Is there anything that makes the pedestrian Blue Bridge more worthy of attention than the 700 or so other Joburg bridges reportedly in poor condition? Perhaps. A month before flooding, JRA told Rapport that 20 city bridges were on the verge of closure. The Blue Bridge may be slightly ahead of the curve: it is officially closed. But that doesn't mean JRA can or will allocate money. In February, JRA needed R16 billion to fix existing bridges. This is way beyond the R8.49 billion capital expenditure budget for the entire city, of which JRA is allocated R1.027 billion. There is another possible source of funding. ALSO READ: Broken promises and failing services are sinking Joburg In a letter to JRA's acting chief executive, the DA's Sandton constituency political head, MP Leah Potgieter, said funds were available under a national disaster classification published in the Government Gazette on 7 March this year, in terms of the Disaster Management Act. She said the severe weather that contributed to the bridge damage 'is explicitly included in this classification and Gauteng is among the provinces covered. 'This enables access to national disaster relief funds and mandates coordination across all spheres of government to implement recovery measures, including for infrastructure like the Blue Bridge.' Private businesses are also offering to help – financially and with professional expertise – to fix the bridge. I am questioned daily by residents, business and community leaders about progress. Today, 12 weeks since the storm damage, there is still no sign of JRA's structural assessment report. No work can be done here without approval from JRA and, possibly, from higher authorities, depending on the nature of the tasks. To nudge this process along, we have launched a petition to fix the Blue Bridge. It's on the Ward 90 Johannesburg Facebook page, or on X @marttwit.
