BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Feb. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Insmed Incorporated (Nasdaq:INSM), a global biopharmaceutical company on a mission to transform the lives of patients with serious and rare diseases, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023 and provided a business update.

"Insmed continued to deliver strong performance in 2023, demonstrating commercial success evidenced by ARIKAYCE revenues that exceeded the upper end of our 2023 sales guidance range," said Will Lewis, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Insmed. "The positive ARISE data announced in September 2023, followed by encouraging blinded TPIP data shortly thereafter, marked the beginning of a transformative period of clinical catalysts for the Company. This series of meaningful data readouts from our mid- to late-stage pipeline is expected to continue uninterrupted in the months ahead, with topline results from the PH-ILD and ASPEN trials expected in quick succession in the second quarter. We believe these near-term data readouts have the potential to fundamentally change the trajectory for our company and the patients we serve."

Recent Pillar Highlights

Pillar 1: ARIKAYCE

• ARIKAYCE global revenue grew 24% in 2023 compared to 2022, reflecting continued strong growth in the U.S., Japan, and Europe.
• Insmed received encouraging written feedback in December 2023 from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on the patient-reported outcome data produced in the Phase 3 ARISE study. The Company expects to meet with the FDA in the coming months to gain additional insights and guidance, from which it will finalize its statistical plan for the Phase 3 ENCORE study.
• As previously communicated in January 2024, the Company achieved its original target enrollment goal of 250 patients in the ENCORE trial in patients with newly diagnosed or recurrent nontuberculous mycobacterial lung infection caused by Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) who had not started antibiotics. Enrollment in the trial remains open.
• The Data Safety Monitoring Committee for the ENCORE study held its third safety review meeting in November 2023 and recommended that the study continue as planned.
• Consistent with the Company's expectations, the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) in Japan recently confirmed that it would not consider a label expansion for ARIKAYCE based on data from the ARISE study alone due to (i) the lack of Japanese subjects in that study; (ii) the absence of what PMDA considers a sufficiently long treatment exposure (12 months); and (iii) the absence of resulting evidence of culture conversion the PMDA considers durable (15 months). The ongoing ENCORE trial is designed to satisfy the PMDA's remaining regulatory requirements, including the enrollment of Japanese patients, sufficient treatment exposure, and an endpoint for durable culture conversion.
• The Company continues to expect topline data for ENCORE in 2025.

Pillar 2: Brensocatib

• Insmed continues to expect topline data from the Phase 3 ASPEN study of brensocatib in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in the latter part of the second quarter of 2024.
• If ASPEN is successful and regulatory approval is obtained, the Company anticipates a launch in bronchiectasis in the U.S. in mid-2025, followed by launches in Europe and Japan in the first half of 2026. Insmed continues to advance its launch readiness activities in preparation for these potential launches.
• The Data Safety Monitoring Committee for the ASPEN study held its fifth and final meeting in November 2023. No safety signals were identified, and the Committee recommended that the trial continue as planned.
• The Company is currently enrolling patients in the Phase 2b BiRCh trial of brensocatib in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP).
• The Company expects to initiate a Phase 2 study of brensocatib in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) in the second half of 2024, pending positive results from the ASPEN study.

Pillar 3: TPIP

• In October 2023, Insmed announced encouraging blended and blinded data from two ongoing Phase 2 studies of treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP) in pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
• The Company completed enrollment of 39 patients in the Phase 2 safety study in PH-ILD in November 2023, exceeding its initial enrollment target of 32 patients. Topline data from the study are anticipated in advance of Phase 3 ASPEN data in the second quarter of 2024.
• Enrollment remains ongoing in the Phase 2 study in PAH. Insmed anticipates sharing updated blinded data from approximately 40 patients in the PAH study at the same time topline results from the PH-ILD study become available in the second quarter of 2024. Topline results from the Phase 2 PAH study continue to be expected in 2025.
• Insmed has submitted a protocol amendment to the FDA and other regulatory authorities for the open-label extension of the Phase 2 PAH study. This amendment, if approved, would allow investigators to continue to increase the dose of TPIP up to a maximum of 1,280 micrograms once daily.

Pillar 4: Early-Stage Research

• Insmed's early-stage research efforts include more than 30 identified pre-clinical programs in development, all of which have the potential to become first-in-class or best-in-class therapies.
• The Company continues to anticipate the totality of its early-stage research programs will comprise less than 20% of overall annual spend.

Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2023 Financial Results

• Total revenue for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2023, was $83.7 million, reflecting 41% growth compared to total revenue of $59.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Total revenue for the full-year 2023 was $305.2 million, compared to total revenue of $245.4 million for the full-year 2022, reflecting 24% year-over-year growth.
• Total revenue for the full-year 2023 was comprised of ARIKAYCE net sales of $224.2 million in the U.S., $65.7 million in Japan, and $15.3 million in Europe and rest of world. Full-year 2023 sales demonstrated year-over-year growth of 21% in the U.S. and 16% in Japan, reflecting continued strong growth trends for ARIKAYCE in these regions.
• Cost of product revenues (excluding amortization of intangibles) was $18.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $13.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily reflecting the increase in sales volumes. For the full-year 2023, cost of product revenues (excluding amortization of intangibles) was $65.6 million compared to $55.1 million for the full-year 2022.
• Research and development (R&D) expenses were $137.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $124.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. For the full-year 2023, R&D expenses were $571.0 million compared to $397.5 million in 2022, reflecting one-time, non-cash asset acquisition costs and the continued investment in Insmed's early and mid- to late-stage pipeline programs, including increases in headcount to support those existing and acquired programs.
• Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the fourth quarter of 2023 were $89.5 million, compared to $73.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. For the full-year 2023, SG&A expenses were $344.5 million, compared to $265.8 million for the full-year 2022. The year-over-year increase in SG&A expenses resulted primarily from commercial readiness activities for brensocatib and an increase in headcount.
• For the fourth-quarter 2023, Insmed reported a net loss of $186.1 million, or $1.28 per share, compared to a net loss of $160.1 million, or $1.21 per share, for the fourth-quarter 2022. For the full-year 2023, Insmed reported a net loss of $749.6 million, or $5.34 per share, compared to a net loss of $481.5 million, or $3.91 per share, for the full-year 2022.

Balance Sheet, Financial Guidance, and Planned Investments

• As of December 31, 2023, Insmed had cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaling $780.4 million.
• Insmed is reiterating its sales guidance for full-year 2024 global ARIKAYCE revenues in the range of $340 million to $360 million, representing 15% year-over-year growth at the midpoint compared to 2023.
• Insmed continues to anticipate that over 80% of total annual expenditures will be on its mid- to late-stage and commercial programs (ARIKAYCE, brensocatib, and TPIP), and that less than 20% of overall spend will be on its early-stage research programs, reflecting the Company's historical approach to spending.

About ARIKAYCE

ARIKAYCE is approved in the United States as ARIKAYCE^® (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE^® Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion, and in Japan as ARIKAYCE^® inhalation 590 mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). Current international treatment guidelines recommend the use of ARIKAYCE for appropriate patients. ARIKAYCE is a novel, inhaled, once-daily formulation of amikacin, an established antibiotic that was historically administered intravenously and associated with severe toxicity to hearing, balance, and kidney function. Insmed's proprietary PULMOVANCE^® liposomal technology enables the delivery of amikacin directly to the lungs, where liposomal amikacin is taken up by lung macrophages where the infection resides, while limiting systemic exposure. ARIKAYCE is administered once daily using the Lamira^® Nebulizer System manufactured by PARI Pharma GmbH (PARI).

About PARI Pharma and the Lamira^® Nebulizer System

ARIKAYCE is delivered by a novel inhalation device, the Lamira^® Nebulizer System, developed by PARI. Lamira^® is a quiet, portable nebulizer that enables efficient aerosolization of ARIKAYCE via a vibrating, perforated membrane. Based on PARI's 100-year history working with aerosols, PARI is dedicated to advancing inhalation therapies by developing innovative delivery platforms to improve patient care.

About Brensocatib

Brensocatib is a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1) being developed by Insmed for the treatment of patients with bronchiectasis, CRSsNP, and other neutrophil-mediated diseases. DPP1 is an enzyme responsible for activating neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs), such as neutrophil elastase, in neutrophils when they are formed in the bone marrow. Neutrophils are the most common type of white blood cell and play an essential role in pathogen destruction and inflammatory mediation. In chronic inflammatory lung diseases, neutrophils accumulate in the airways and result in excessive active NSPs that cause lung destruction and inflammation. Brensocatib may decrease the damaging effects of inflammatory diseases such as bronchiectasis by inhibiting DPP1 and its activation of NSPs. Brensocatib is an investigational drug product that has not been approved for any indication in any jurisdiction.

About TPIP

Treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP) is a dry powder formulation of treprostinil palmitil, a treprostinil prodrug consisting of treprostinil linked by an ester bond to a 16-carbon chain. Developed entirely in Insmed's laboratories, TPIP is a potentially highly differentiated prostanoid being evaluated for the treatment of patients with PAH, PH-ILD, and other rare and serious pulmonary disorders. TPIP is administered in a capsule-based inhalation device. TPIP is an investigational drug product that has not been approved for any indication in any jurisdiction.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION AND BOXED WARNING FOR ARIKAYCE IN THE U.S.

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (reported as allergic alveolitis, pneumonitis, interstitial lung disease, allergic reaction to ARIKAYCE) was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (3.1%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (0%). Most patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis discontinued treatment with ARIKAYCE and received treatment with corticosteroids. If hypersensitivity pneumonitis occurs, discontinue ARIKAYCE and manage patients as medically appropriate.

Hemoptysis has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Hemoptysis was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (17.9%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (12.5%). If hemoptysis occurs, manage patients as medically appropriate.

Bronchospasm has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Bronchospasm (reported as asthma, bronchial hyperreactivity, bronchospasm, dyspnea, dyspnea exertional, prolonged expiration, throat tightness, wheezing) was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (28.7%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (10.7%). If bronchospasm occurs during the use of ARIKAYCE, treat patients as medically appropriate.

Exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease (reported as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), infective exacerbation of COPD, infective exacerbation of bronchiectasis) have been reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (14.8%) compared to patients treated with background regimen alone (9.8%). If exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease occur during the use of ARIKAYCE, treat patients as medically appropriate.

Anaphylaxis and Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious and potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported in patients taking ARIKAYCE. Signs and symptoms include acute onset of skin and mucosal tissue hypersensitivity reactions (hives, itching, flushing, swollen lips/tongue/uvula), respiratory difficulty (shortness of breath, wheezing, stridor, cough), gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, crampy abdominal pain), and cardiovascular signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis (tachycardia, low blood pressure, syncope, incontinence, dizziness). Before therapy with ARIKAYCE is instituted, evaluate for previous hypersensitivity reactions to aminoglycosides. If anaphylaxis or a hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue ARIKAYCE and institute appropriate supportive measures.

Ototoxicity has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Ototoxicity (including deafness, dizziness, presyncope, tinnitus, and vertigo) were reported with a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (17%) compared to patients treated with background regimen alone (9.8%). This was primarily driven by tinnitus (7.6% in ARIKAYCE plus background regimen vs 0.9% in the background regimen alone arm) and dizziness (6.3% in ARIKAYCE plus background regimen vs 2.7% in the background regimen alone arm). Closely monitor patients with known or suspected auditory or vestibular dysfunction during treatment with ARIKAYCE. If ototoxicity occurs, manage patients as medically appropriate, including potentially discontinuing ARIKAYCE.

Nephrotoxicity was observed during the clinical trials of ARIKAYCE in patients with MAC lung disease but not at a higher frequency than background regimen alone. Nephrotoxicity has been associated with the aminoglycosides. Close monitoring of patients with known or suspected renal dysfunction may be needed when prescribing ARIKAYCE.

Neuromuscular Blockade: Patients with neuromuscular disorders were not enrolled in ARIKAYCE clinical trials. Patients with known or suspected neuromuscular disorders, such as myasthenia gravis, should be closely monitored since aminoglycosides may aggravate muscle weakness by blocking the release of acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Aminoglycosides can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Aminoglycosides, including ARIKAYCE, may be associated with total, irreversible, bilateral congenital deafness in pediatric patients exposed in utero. Patients who use ARIKAYCE during pregnancy, or become pregnant while taking ARIKAYCE should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus.

Contraindications: ARIKAYCE is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any aminoglycoside.

Most Common Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in Trial 1 at an incidence ≥5% for patients using ARIKAYCE plus background regimen compared to patients treated with background regimen alone were dysphonia (47% vs 1%), cough (39% vs 17%), bronchospasm (29% vs 11%), hemoptysis (18% vs 13%), ototoxicity (17% vs 10%), upper airway irritation (17% vs 2%), musculoskeletal pain (17% vs 8%), fatigue and asthenia (16% vs 10%), exacerbation of underlying pulmonary disease (15% vs 10%), diarrhea (13% vs 5%), nausea (12% vs 4%), pneumonia (10% vs 8%), headache (10% vs 5%), pyrexia (7% vs 5%), vomiting (7% vs 4%), rash (6% vs 2%), decreased weight (6% vs 1%), change in sputum (5% vs 1%), and chest discomfort (5% vs 3%).

Drug Interactions: Avoid concomitant use of ARIKAYCE with medications associated with neurotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and ototoxicity. Some diuretics can enhance aminoglycoside toxicity by altering aminoglycoside concentrations in serum and tissue. Avoid concomitant use of ARIKAYCE with ethacrynic acid, furosemide, urea, or intravenous mannitol.

Overdosage: Adverse reactions specifically associated with overdose of ARIKAYCE have not been identified. Acute toxicity should be treated with immediate withdrawal of ARIKAYCE, and baseline tests of renal function should be undertaken. Hemodialysis may be helpful in removing amikacin from the body. In all cases of suspected overdosage, physicians should contact the Regional Poison Control Center for information about effective treatment.
