First Quarter 2024 and Recent Highlights

XPOVIO Commercial Performance

  • Achieved U.S. net product revenue of $26.0 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $25.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $28.3 million for the first quarter 2023.
  • XPOVIO net product revenue was supported by quarter-over-quarter growth in new patient starts amidst increased competition, while being adversely impacted by softness in refills following lower new prescriptions in the fourth quarter of 2023 and higher gross to net driven by increased Medicare rebates and 340B discounts.
  • Approximately 60% of XPOVIO net product revenue came from the community setting, with a vast majority of XPOVIO patient mix continuing to be in earlier lines of therapy. In the academic setting, demand for XPOVIO grew quarter-over-quarter despite competitive pressures, driven by the expanding use of XPOVIO immediately preceding and following T-cell therapies in later lines.
  • Effective January 1, 2024, XPOVIO was added to Mainland China's National Reimbursement Drug List for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma whose disease is refractory to at least one proteasome inhibitor, one immunomodulatory agent and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody.
  • In April 2024, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in the United Kingdom recommended the expanded use of NEXPOVIO in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone, as a treatment for multiple myeloma patients who have received one or two prior treatments.

  • Long-term follow-up data from a pre-specified exploratory subgroup analysis of patients with advanced or recurrent TP53 wild-type endometrial cancer from the SIENDO study (NCT03555422) was presented as an encore oral presentation at the 25th European Gynaecological Oncology Congress (ESGO) in March 2024.
