Key Operational Highlights
HETLIOZ® (tasimelteon)
- The supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for HETLIOZ® in the treatment of insomnia is under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of March 4, 2024. Vanda announced that on February 4, 2024, it received a notification from the FDA stating that the FDA had identified deficiencies that preclude discussion of labeling and postmarketing requirements/commitments at this time. No deficiencies were disclosed by the FDA in the notification, and the FDA stated that the notification does not reflect a final decision on the information under review. On February 6, 2024, Vanda filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (D.C. District Court) challenging the FDA's conduct in reviewing the insomnia sNDA. Vanda is asking the D.C. District Court to compel the FDA to adhere to the legally mandated 180-day review period for sNDAs and to declare as unlawful and void the regulations the FDA relies upon to issue complete response letters.
- Vanda is also continuing to pursue FDA approval for HETLIOZ® in the treatment of jet lag disorder. Vanda announced in January 2024 that the D.C. District Court granted Vanda's motion for summary judgment on its claim against the FDA for unlawfully delaying a hearing on the approvability of Vanda's sNDA for HETLIOZ® in the treatment of jet lag disorder. The D.C. District Court ordered the FDA to either finally resolve Vanda's jet lag sNDA or commence a hearing on the sNDA on or before March 5, 2024.
- In January 2024, Vanda filed a petition for a writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court to review the decision of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Vanda's HETLIOZ® Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) litigation against Teva Pharmaceuticals USA, Inc. (Teva), Apotex Inc. and Apotex Corp. (collectively, Apotex). Teva and Apotex have waived their opportunity to respond to Vanda's petition, which is now ripe for decision by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Fanapt® (iloperidone)
- The article "Efficacy and Safety of Iloperidone in Bipolar Mania: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study" was published in January 2024 in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry.1 The findings of this pivotal study have been submitted to the FDA as part of Vanda's sNDA for Fanapt® in the treatment of bipolar I disorder in adults.
- The sNDA for Fanapt® in the treatment of bipolar I disorder in adults is under review by the FDA with a PDUFA target action date of April 2, 2024.
PONVORY® (ponesimod)
- Vanda completed the acquisition of the U.S. and Canadian rights to PONVORY® from Janssen for $100.0 million in December 2023 and the transition is ongoing. PONVORY® is a once-daily oral selective sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 modulator, approved by the FDA and Health Canada to treat adults with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis, and is a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of a diverse group of inflammatory/autoimmune disorders ranging from psoriasis to ulcerative colitis.
- Vanda announced in January 2024 that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) had issued a notice of allowance for its PONVORY® patent application, 17/962,968, covering methods for reducing clinical management events before or during the treatment of multiple sclerosis and methods for reinstating treatment after missed doses. When issued, the patent is anticipated to expire on October 10, 2042. Upon issuance, Vanda intends to list this patent in the FDA publication Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, commonly known as the Orange Book.
Tradipitant
- The article "The Efficacy of Tradipitant in Patients with Diabetic and Idiopathic Gastroparesis in Phase III Randomized Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial" was published in January 2024 in the Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology Journal.2 The findings of this pivotal study as well as a previously reported positive placebo-controlled study in diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis have been submitted to the FDA as part of Vanda's New Drug Application (NDA) for tradipitant in the treatment of symptoms of gastroparesis in adults.3
- In December 2023, Vanda announced that the NDA for tradipitant for the treatment of symptoms of gastroparesis was accepted for filing and is under review by the FDA with a PDUFA target action date of September 18, 2024.
- The second Phase III study of tradipitant in the treatment of motion sickness is over 50% enrolled. In May 2023, Vanda previously announced positive results from its first Phase III study of tradipitant in the treatment of motion sickness. Vanda plans to pursue FDA approval upon completion of the clinical development program.
Early-Stage Programs
- In January 2024, Vanda announced that the FDA had approved the Investigational New Drug (IND) application to evaluate VCA-894A for the treatment of a patient with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, axonal, type 2S (CMT2S), an inherited peripheral neuropathy for which there is no available treatment.
- In January 2024, Vanda announced that the FDA had also approved the IND to evaluate VTR-297 for the treatment of onychomycosis, a fungal infection of the nail.
Other Legal Updates
- Vanda announced in January 2024 that the United States Court of Federal Claims denied in part the U.S. government's motion to dismiss Vanda's claims against the U.S. for the FDA's uncompensated taking of Vanda's trade secrets and confidential information, thereby allowing Vanda's lawsuit to proceed. Vanda is seeking compensation from the U.S. for the takings it contends occurred through the FDA's improper communication and disclosure of trade secrets and confidential information to certain generic drug manufacturers. Vanda now intends to engage in discovery to support its claims.
GAAP Financial Results
Net loss was $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to net income of $6.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Diluted net loss per share was $0.04 in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to diluted net income per share of $0.12 in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Net income was $2.5 million for the full year 2023 compared to net income of $6.3 million for the full year 2022. Diluted net income per share was $0.04 for the full year 2023 compared to diluted net income per share of $0.11 for the full year 2022.
2024 Financial Guidance
Given uncertainties surrounding the U.S. market for HETLIOZ® for the treatment of Non-24 as a result of the ongoing HETLIOZ® patent litigation and the at-risk launch of generic versions of HETLIOZ®, Vanda is unable to provide 2024 financial guidance at this time.
