**Incannex Reports Positive Results from Phase 2 Clinical Trial of PSX-001 (Psi-GAD) for Generalised Anxiety Disorder**

*Psi-GAD delivers statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements across validated measures of anxiety, mood, disability, and quality of life; results establish PSX-001 as a leading psilocybin-assisted therapy in development globally*

MELBOURNE, Australia and NEW YORK, USA - August 26 - Incannex Healthcare Inc. (Nasdaq: IXHL) ("Incannex" or the "Company") is pleased to report positive data from its Phase 2 clinical trial of PSX-001 (formerly Psi-GAD), a psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy treatment for Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD). The results confirm statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements across every key endpoint assessed in the study, reinforcing PSX-001's potential as a best-in-class therapy for patients with moderate to severe GAD.

**Trial Design Overview**

The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study enrolled 73 adult participants diagnosed with moderate to severe Generalised Anxiety Disorder. Participants were randomly assigned to complete two dosing sessions with either a 25 mg dose of synthetic psilocybin or placebo, administered in a controlled clinical setting as part of a proprietary psychotherapeutic protocol developed. All participants received equal hours of psychological support and preparation, ensuring that any treatment effect could be attributed to psilocybin itself and not therapeutic bias. Efficacy was assessed using a suite of validated clinical measures at multiple timepoints post-treatment, with the primary endpoint focused on change in HAM-A (Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale) scores.

**Exceptional Efficacy Results: Statistically Significant and Clinically Meaningful Improvements Across All Key Measures**

The Phase 2 trial of Psi-GAD demonstrated a robust and consistent pattern of efficacy, delivering statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements across all primary and secondary endpoints.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **HAM-A (Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale):** Patients treated with Psi-GAD achieved an average 12.8-point reduction in HAM-A scores from baseline, compared to a 3.6-point reduction in the placebo group. This difference was statistically significant (p<0.0001) and sustained across the 11-week follow-up period, indicating a rapid onset and durable treatment effect. As the trial's primary endpoint, the HAM-A outcome establishes a strong efficacy signal for Psi-GAD.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **Clinical Response and Remission:** Psi-GAD treatment resulted in a clinically meaningful response, corresponding to a reduction in HAM-A score from baseline of ≥50% in 44.1% of patients. A response rate more than four times higher than that of the placebo group. Of patients receiving PsiGAD treatment, 27% achieved full disease remission (HAM-A ≤7), five times higher than placebo.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **GAD-7 (Generalised Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale):** The Psi-GAD group recorded an average 7.4-point reduction in GAD-7 scores, compared to a 3.5-point reduction for placebo. This difference was statistically significant (p<0.0004), confirming Psi-GAD's effect across multiple validated measures of anxiety severity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **SDS (Sheehan Disability Scale):** Patients in the Psi-GAD group experienced a 6.0-point reduction in SDS scores, versus 1.3 points in the placebo group—a statistically significant improvement (p<0.007). These results demonstrate a marked improvement in functional impairment across work, social, and family domains, which are often severely impacted in GAD.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9):** Psi-GAD also showed statistically significant antidepressant effects, with a 3.9-point reduction in PHQ-9 scores compared to just 0.3 points in the placebo group (p<0.005). This supports PSX-001's broad therapeutic utility in mood-related comorbidities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● **PWI (Personal Wellbeing Index):** Quality of life, as measured by the PWI, improved by an average of 10.6 points in the Psi-GAD group versus 2.7 points for placebo—a statistically significant difference (p<0.002). These results reflect substantial and sustained enhancements in overall psychological wellbeing.

**Safety and Tolerability**

Treatment with Psi-GAD was well tolerated across the study population. No serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported, and only one of the 73 subjects withdrew from the trial during the 7 week treatment program. The majority of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were transient, mild to moderate in nature, and consistent with the expected pharmacological effects of psilocybin. Importantly, there were no signs of increased suicidality, psychosis, or prolonged psychological distress—concerns often cited with psychedelic treatments. The controlled setting, comprehensive preparation, and therapist-supported integration sessions contributed to the overall safety of the intervention. These findings reinforce the strong risk-benefit profile of Psi-GAD and support its continued advancement into late-stage development.

**Dr. Lou Barbato, Chief Medical Officer of Incannex, commented:**

"These results speak for themselves—statistically significant, clinically meaningful, and consistent across every validated measure. Psi-GAD demonstrated a reduction in anxiety, improved mood, enhanced quality of life, and better day-to-day functioning. Importantly, the treatment effect was durable and observed across 11 weeks. These outcomes reinforce the power of our proprietary psychotherapeutic model and position Psi-GAD as a global leader in anxiety treatment innovation. We are also very pleased with the safety profile of Psi-GAD, particularly when considered alongside comparator programs in the market, which strengthens our confidence in both the clinical utility and scalability of this treatment."

**Joel Latham, President and Chief Executive Officer of Incannex, commented:**

"These are outstanding results for Incannex and a major milestone for our clinical pipeline. Alongside our strong cash position, the success of PSX-001 significantly de-risks another of our lead assets and further validates our strategy of developing innovative combination and psychedelic-based therapies. To deliver back-to-back positive Phase 2 results for both PSX-001 and IHL-42X is an exceptional achievement, and one that gives us tremendous confidence as we progress towards late-stage development and continue to build value for patients and shareholders alike."

**Next Steps**

The Company has an open Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the U.S. FDA and is preparing to initiate a multi-jurisdiction Phase 2 clinical trial. In parallel, Incannex continues to refine formulation strategies to ensure a robust and defensible intellectual property (IP) position. The Company is also exploring strategic partnerships to accelerate development and broaden global access to PSX-001 for patients with unmet needs.
