WASHINGTON, May 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Vanda Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Vanda) (NASDAQ:VNDA) today announced financial and operational results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

"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.

(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 – Commercial

Fanapt^® (iloperidone)

Fanapt^® was approved in the second quarter of 2024 for the acute treatment of bipolar I disorder. Vanda initiated the commercial launch of Fanapt^® in this indication in the third quarter of 2024. In the first quarter of 2025, as compared to the first quarter of 2024, total prescriptions (TRx)¹ increased by approximately 14% and Fanapt^® net product sales increased by 14%. Additionally, new patient starts, as reflected by new to brand prescriptions (NBRx),¹ increased by nearly threefold in the same period.

Fanapt^® total prescriptions (TRx) for the week of April 25, 2025 reached the milestone of 2,000, making Fanapt^® one of the fastest growing atypical antipsychotics.¹ Vanda has also announced an expansion of its psychiatry sales force to approximately 300 representatives.

HETLIOZ^® (tasimelteon)

Through the first quarter of 2025, HETLIOZ^® continues to retain the largest portion of market share despite generic competition for over two years.²

HETLIOZ^® MAA in Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) submitted to the EMA in Q4 2024.

Bysanti™ (milsaperidone)

The NDA for Bysanti™ for the acute treatment of bipolar I disorder and the treatment of schizophrenia was accepted for filing by the FDA with a PDUFA target action date of February 21, 2026. 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.

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.
