5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Theravance Biopharma, Inc. ("Theravance Biopharma" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: TBPH ) today announced financial and operational results for the second quarter of 2024. "YUPELRI net sales decreased 1% from the prior quarter, owing to near-term headwinds from an evolved channel mix and a lower realized net price," said Rick Winningham , Theravance Biopharma CEO.
"We are disappointed with this quarter's net sales result, but remain confident in our ability to continue to grow YUPELRI in the future, given strong and consistent demand generation." He continued, "In addition, while we have activated over 80% of study sites in CYPRESS and achieved solid enrollment in the quarter, we now anticipate enrolling the last patient into the open-label portion of the study in mid-2025. We continue to prioritize delivering a high-quality study in pursuit of making ampreloxetine available to those MSA patients suffering without viable treatment options for their symptomatic nOH.
Finally, we are pleased with another exceptional quarter for TRELEGY, which increases our confidence in achieving milestones in 2024, which would contribute to our existing balance sheet strength." Second Quarter Highlights YUPELRI ® (revefenacin) inhalation solution, the first and only once-daily, nebulized LAMA (long- acting muscarinic agent) bronchodilator approved in the US for the maintenance treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): Realized total net sales of $54.5 million for the quarter, a decrease of 1% compared with the same period in 2023.
1 Generated a robust 13% increase in customer demand (Q2 2024 vs Q2 2023). 2 Increased hospital doses sold by 43% (Q2 2024 vs Q2 2023). 3 Increased share of the long-acting nebulized segment of the COPD market, with hospital share surpassing 18% and community share reaching 32%, both all-time highs.
4 Granted an additional method of use patent for YUPELRI on July 30, 2024 , with an expiration date of August 2039 . Listed in the FDA Orange Book.

Corporate Initiatives to Maximize Shareholder Value Pursuant to a recently-completed review of its substantial Irish tax assets, the Company is engaging tax and financial advisors to explore opportunities through which to unlock value, given the gap between our share price and the value of our diverse and unique portfolio, including YUPELRI, ampreloxetine, TRELEGY and the Company's tax assets. We will provide further updates as appropriate. Intellectual Property Updates Patent Infringement Suits Patent litigation is pending against four companies, along with certain affiliates; we previously disclosed litigation involving three of these companies.
In June 2024 , the Company filed a patent infringement suit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania against a subsequent filer of an abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) for a generic version of YUPELRI.
As a result of this lawsuit, a 30-month stay of approval through November 2026 would be expected to be automatically granted by the FDA on the subsequent filer's ANDA pending any adverse court decision. As of July 31, 2024 , the Company has settled litigation with four companies pursuant to individual agreements in which we granted these companies a royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable license to manufacture and market their respective generic versions of YUPELRI inhalation solution in the US on or after the licensed launch date of April 23, 2039 , subject to certain exceptions as is customary in these type of agreements. As required by law, the settlements are subject to review by the U.
S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission. Additional Patent An additional method of use patent for YUPELRI was granted on July 30, 2024 , which expires in August 2039 , and is listed in the FDA Orange Book.

About Ampreloxetine Ampreloxetine, an investigational, once-daily norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor in development for the treatment of symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA). The unique benefits of ampreloxetine treatment reported in MSA patients from Study 0170 included an increase in norepinephrine levels, a favorable impact on blood pressure, clinically meaningful and durable symptom improvement, and no signal for supine hypertension. In the US, the Company has been granted an Orphan Drug Designation for ampreloxetine for the treatment of symptomatic nOH in patients with MSA and, if results from the ongoing Phase 3 CYPRESS study are supportive, plans to file an NDA for full approval in this indication.
About CYPRESS (Study 0197), a Phase 3 Study Study 0197 ( NCT05696717 ) is currently enrolling. This is a registrational Phase 3, multi-center, randomized withdrawal study to evaluate the efficacy and durability of ampreloxetine in participants with MSA and symptomatic nOH after 20 weeks of treatment; the primary endpoint of the study is change in the Orthostatic Hypotension Symptom Assessment (OHSA) composite score. The Study includes four periods: screening, open label (12-week period, participants will receive a single daily 10 mg dose of ampreloxetine), randomized withdrawal (eight-week period, double-blind, placebo-controlled, participants will receive a single daily 10 mg dose of placebo or ampreloxetine), and a long-term treatment extension.
Secondary outcome measures include change from baseline in Orthostatic Hypotension Daily Activity Scale (OHDAS) item 1 (activities that require standing for a short time) and item 3 (activities that require walking for a short time). About Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) and Symptomatic Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (nOH) MSA is a progressive brain disorder that affects movement and balance and disrupts the function of the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls body functions that are mostly involuntary.
One of the most frequent autonomic symptoms associated with MSA is a sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing (nOH). 6 There are approximately 50,000 MSA patients in the US 7 and 70-90% of MSA patients experience nOH symptoms. 8 Despite available therapies, many MSA patients remain symptomatic with nOH.
Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) is a rare disorder defined as a fall in systolic blood pressure of ⩾20 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure of ⩾10 mm Hg, within 3 minutes of standing. Severely affected patients are unable to stand for more than a few seconds because of their decrease in blood pressure, leading to cerebral hypoperfusion and syncope. A debilitating condition, nOH results in a range of symptoms including dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, fatigue, blurry vision, weakness, trouble concentrating, and head and neck pain.

Theravance Biopharma intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Examples of such statements include statements relating to: the Company's expectations regarding its future profitability, expenses and uses of cash, the Company's goals, designs, strategies, plans and objectives, future growth of YUPELRI sales, future royalty payments, the ability to provide value to shareholders, the Company's regulatory strategies and timing of clinical studies, possible safety, efficacy or differentiation of our investigational therapy, the status of patent infringement litigation initiated by the Company and its partner against certain generic companies in federal district courts; contingent payments due to the Company from the sale of the Company's TRELEGY ELLIPTA royalty interests to Royalty Pharma, and expectations around the use of OHSA scores as endpoints for clinical trials.
These statements are based on the current estimates and assumptions of the management of Theravance Biopharma as of the date of this press release and the conference call and are subject to risks, uncertainties, changes in circumstances, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results of Theravance Biopharma to be materially different from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements include, among others, risks related to: factors that could increase the Company's cash requirements or expenses beyond its expectations and any factors that could adversely affect its profitability, whether the milestone thresholds can be achieved, delays or difficulties in commencing, enrolling or completing clinical studies, the potential that results from clinical or non-clinical studies indicate the Company's product candidates or product are unsafe, ineffective or not differentiated, risks of decisions from regulatory authorities that are unfavorable to the Company, dependence on third parties to conduct clinical studies, delays or failure to achieve and maintain regulatory approvals for product candidates, risks of collaborating with or relying on third parties to discover, develop, manufacture and commercialize products, and risks associated with establishing and maintaining sales, marketing and distribution capabilities with appropriate technical expertise and supporting infrastructure, the ability of the Company to protect and to enforce its intellectual property rights, volatility and fluctuations in the trading price and volume of the Company's shares, and general economic and market conditions. Other risks affecting Theravance Biopharma are in the Company's Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 15, 2024 , and other periodic reports filed with the SEC.
In addition to the risks described above and in Theravance Biopharma's filings with the SEC, other unknown or unpredictable factors also could affect Theravance Biopharma's results. No forward-looking statements can be guaranteed, and actual results may differ materially from such statements. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Theravance Biopharma assumes no obligation to update its forward-looking statements on account of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Theravance Biopharma provides a non-GAAP profitability target and a non-GAAP metric in this press release. Theravance Biopharma believes that the non-GAAP profitability target and non-GAAP net profit (loss) from operations provide meaningful information to assist investors in assessing prospects for future performance and actual performance as they provide better metrics for analyzing the performance of its business by excluding items that may not be indicative of core operating results and the Company's cash position.
Because non-GAAP financial targets and metrics, such as non-GAAP profitability and non-GAAP net loss from continuing operations, are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these measures with other companies' non-GAAP targets or measures having the same or a similar name. Thus, Theravance Biopharma's non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, or in isolation from, the Company's actual GAAP results and other targets. Please see the appendix attached to this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP net profit (loss) from operations to its corresponding measure, net profit (loss) from operations.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP net profit (loss) from operations to its corresponding GAAP measure is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, expenses and other factors in the future.
