-- ROLVEDON™ (eflapegrastim-xnst) injection is now commercially available --
-- Cash runway expected to extend through 2024 --
-- Management to host webcast and conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET / 1:30 p.m. PT --
Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NasdaqGS: SPPI), a biopharmaceutical company focused on novel and targeted oncology therapies, announced today financial results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022 and provided a corporate update.
Third Quarter 2022 and Recent Business Update
- Launched ROLVEDON™ (eflapegrastim-xnst) injection for adult patients with non-myeloid malignancies receiving myelosuppressive anti-cancer drugs associated with clinically significant incidence of febrile neutropenia into an estimated approximately $2 billion market.
- Closed on debt financing with SLR Capital Partners, LLC (SLR) for a term loan facility of up to $65 million, of which $30 million was funded at closing.
- As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $100.3 million of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities available to optimize the ROLVEDON commercial launch and extends the Company’s cash runway through 2024.
- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (“FDA”) Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee (“ODAC”) reviewed poziotinib for the treatment of patients with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) harboring HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations and voted 9-4 that the current benefits of poziotinib do not outweigh its risks. The PDUFA date for poziotinib is scheduled for November 24, 2022.
“The approval of ROLVEDON marks a significant accomplishment for Spectrum and our partner Hanmi Pharmaceutical. We are proud that the product became commercially available in October and are excited to be competing in an estimated $2 billion market opportunity. Importantly, we have been preparing for this milestone and have the financial runway to support ROLVEDON in the marketplace,” said Tom Riga, President and Chief Executive Officer of Spectrum Pharmaceuticals. “While we are disappointed by the ODAC vote on poziotinib, we are awaiting the final response from the FDA and will continue to act in the best interest of the Company, our shareholders, and the patients who need our medicines.”
Three-Month Period Ended September 30, 2022 (All numbers are from Continuing Operations)
Total research and development expenses were $13.3 million during the quarter, compared to $20.9 million in the same period in 2021. The $7.5 million decrease is primarily attributable to completed program spend associated with ROLVEDON, as well as a decrease in personnel-related expenses of $3.0 million related to the strategic restructuring that began in January 2022.
Selling, General and Administrative expenses were $8.3 million during the quarter, compared to $12.2 million in the same period in 2021. The $4.0 million decrease is primarily due to lower costs associated with employee compensation, benefits, and other headcount related expenses related to the reduction of workforce announced in January, as well as decreases in stock-based compensation.
Spectrum recorded a net loss of $21.9 million, or a $0.12 loss per basic and diluted share, in the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of $33.1 million, or a $0.21 loss per basic and diluted share, in the comparable period in 2021.
Cash Position and Guidance
The Company had a total cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balance of approximately $100.3 million at September 30, 2022.
