Description: AXSM Axsome Therapeutics November 05, 2025

Axsome Therapeutics (NASDAQ: AXSM) is a U.S.-based biopharma that targets central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Its commercial lineup includes Auvelity (dextromethorphan-bupropion) for major depressive disorder, Sunosi (solriamfetol) for excessive daytime sleepiness in narcolepsy or obstructive sleep apnea, and Symbravo (AXS-07), a rapid-onset migraine therapy that combines meloxicam and rizatriptan.

The pipeline features several late-stage candidates: AXS-05 (dextromethorphan-bupropion) has finished Phase III for Alzheimer’s disease agitation and Phase II for smoking cessation; AXS-12 (reboxetine) completed Phase III for narcolepsy; AXS-14 (esreboxetine) wrapped Phase III for fibromyalgia; and Solriamfetol is in Phase III trials for ADHD, major depression, binge-eating disorder, and shift-work sleepiness. Axsome also maintains a research collaboration with Duke University to evaluate AXS-05 in smoking cessation.

As of the latest quarter (Q2 2024), Axsome reported $68 million in total revenue, driven primarily by Sunosi and Auvelity, and held $550 million of cash and marketable securities, giving it roughly 18 months of runway at current burn rates. The CNS therapeutics market is expanding at a 6-7 % CAGR, buoyed by aging demographics and unmet needs in depression and sleep disorders-trends that underpin Axsome’s growth thesis.
