(Vanda) (Nasdaq: VNDA) today announced financial and operational results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025. Fanapt® TRx and NBRx "Vanda has entered a new growth phase with multiple commercialized products and a rich innovative pipeline. Fanapt commercial growth has accelerated, reaching multi-year highs, with weekly prescriptions surpassing 2,000 at the end of April as an increasing number of prescribers are adding Fanapt to their therapeutic armamentarium," said Mihael H. Polymeropoulos, M.D., Vanda's President, CEO and Chairman of the Board. "Our recent new drug application filings for tradipitant and Bysanti are a testament to our productive research and development pipeline. The addition of imsidolimab alongside Ponvory establishes an anti-inflammatory franchise that we believe has significant growth potential. These accomplishments have been possible because of our talented employees, who for the first time surpassed 400 in number, a 22-year high." Financial Highlights Total net product sales from Fanapt®, HETLIOZ® and PONVORY® were $50.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, a 5% increase compared to $47.5 million in the first quarter of 2024. Fanapt® net product sales were $23.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, a 14% increase compared to $20.6 million in the first quarter of 2024.

PONVORY® net product sales were $5.6 million in the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of 18% compared to $6.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. Net loss was $29.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to net loss of $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2024.

(Anaptys) for the development and commercialization of imsidolimab and increased commercial activities. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities (Cash) was $340.9 million as of March 31, 2025, representing a decrease to Cash of $33.7 million compared to December 31, 2024. The decrease to Cash reflects the payment of $15.0 million during the first quarter of 2025 related to the exclusive, global license agreement with Anaptys for the development and commercialization of imsidolimab. Key Operational Highlights – CommercialFanapt® (iloperidone) Fanapt® was approved in the second quarter of 2024 for the acute treatment of bipolar I disorder.

Key Clinical HighlightsFanapt® (iloperidone) Schizophrenia: A Phase III program for the long acting injectable (LAI) formulation of Fanapt® in the treatment of schizophrenia in relapse prevention is ongoing. Hypertension: Vanda initiated a study of the Fanapt® LAI as a once-a-month injectable for uncontrolled hypertension and plans to begin enrolling patients soon.

Exclusivity for Bysanti™, including pending patent applications, could extend into the 2040s. Bysanti™ is a new chemical entity, which was initially identified as an active metabolite of iloperidone. Vanda discovered that milsaperidone, when administered orally, quickly interconverts to iloperidone. In clinical studies, milsaperidone and iloperidone have been shown to be bioequivalent at both low and high doses, administered both in single and multiple dose studies. The results of these clinical studies will be presented in late May, at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology annual meeting in Scottsdale, Arizona. The Bysanti™ Phase III clinical study for use as a once-daily adjunctive treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) is ongoing. Results are expected in 2026.

Tradipitant The NDA for tradipitant for the treatment of motion sickness was accepted for filing by the FDA with a PDUFA target action date of December 30, 2025.

Results are expected in the third quarter of 2025. Imsidolimab In February 2025, Vanda announced it entered into an exclusive, global license agreement with Anaptys for the development and commercialization of imsidolimab (IL-36R antagonist mAb). A BLA for GPP is expected to be submitted to the FDA in 2025. Early-Stage Program Highlights VQW-765, an alpha-7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor partial agonist, is currently in clinical development for the treatment of acute performance anxiety in social situations. Vanda expects to initiate the Phase III program in 2025. The IND application for VCA-894A in the treatment of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, type 2S (CMT2S), an inherited peripheral neuropathy for which there is no available treatment, was accepted by the FDA in 2024.
