Isturisa®

Approved in EU as a new therapeutic option for patients with Cushing's Syndrome

Change of mUFC in individual patients during the randomized withdrawal period

Study Conclusion: Osilodrostat was significantly superior to placebo at maintaining mUFC ≤ULN after randomized withdrawal and normalized mUFC in two-thirds of enrolled patients at W48, with few patients discontinuing treatment because of AEs. This randomized withdrawal study demonstrates osilodrostat to be a highly effective treatment for CD, with good tolerability.*

The European Commission (EC) granted marketing authorization for Isturisa® (osilodrostat), indicated for the treatment of endogenous Cushing's syndrome (CS) in adults.

  • The data generated throughout the clinical program show that Isturisa® leads to biochemical control (normal cortisol levels) in the majority of patients, as well as improvement in multiple clinical features of the disease and in QoL measurements.
  • In LINC-3 ( phase 3, multicentre, double - blind, randomized withdrawal study), a significantly higher proportion of patients in the osilodrostat arm maintained normal mUFC response at the end of the 8-week randomised withdrawal period (week 34) versus placebo (86.1% vs 29.4%).
  • The European Commission also confirmed the Orphan status of Isturisa® providing 10 years of market exclusivity.
  • In the US PDUFA date is March 7, 2020
  • Filing in Japan is planned for Q2
  • IP protection until 2031
  • Potential peak sales of more than $ 100 million

Financial projections - Key assumptions

  • Mid single digit Net Revenue growth, driven by:
    • Continued underlying volume growth in Specialty and Primary Care off-setting impact of generic entries for Urorec® (silodosin) in Q1 and Livazo® (pitavastatin) in Q2
    • Double digit growth of the rare diseases business, with sales of Ledaga®, Juxtapid® and Cystadrops® more than off-setting expected Panhematin® erosion in US and Signifor®, Signifor® LAR and initial sales of Isturisa® in Europe contributing net revenue of around € 70 million*.
  • Additional investment to maximise opportunity of new Endocrinology franchise in both EU and US
  • R&D costs to be 9 to 10% of sales, increasing mainly due to amortization charges and endocrinology clinical trials
  • Slight improvement in EBITDA margin due to product/country mix and stable operating income margin
  • Tax rate to be of around 23 - 24%
  • No new acquisitions or business development included in 2020 targets
  • 2021 plan, announced in May 2019, confirmed

* Refers to booked sales. Only margins on sales of Signifor® and Signifor® LAR to be booked until market

13 authorizations are transferred from Novartis to Recordati.
