PEDFIC 1 was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III trial that evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of Bylvay in reducing pruritus and serum bile acids (sBAs) in children with PFIC, and PEDFIC 2 is a long-term, open-label Phase III extension trial. Patients with PFIC have impaired bile flow, or cholestasis, and the resulting bile build-up in liver cells causes liver disease and symptoms, such as intense itching, poor sleep, delayed growth, and diminished quality of life. The harmful impacts of the disease extend to parents and caregivers, as the 2022 multinational PICTURE trial revealed that PFIC negatively affects caregivers\u2019 quality of life, relationships, and career prospects.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>About the <\/strong><strong>Phase III <\/strong><strong>ASSERT<\/strong> <strong>trial<\/strong><br \/>ASSERT is a gold standard, prospective intervention trial with 32 sites across North America, Europe, Middle East, and Asia Pacific. The double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 120 \u00b5g \/kg\/day Bylvay for 24 weeks in relieving pruritus in patients with ALGS. Key secondary endpoints measure serum bile acid levels and safety and tolerability. The trial enrolled patients aged 0 to 17 years of age with a genetically confirmed diagnosis of ALGS. In the primary analysis, the trial met the primary endpoint showing statistically significant reduction in pruritus as measured by the PRUCISION Observer-Reported Outcome scratching score (0-4 point scale), from baseline at month 6 (weeks 21 to 24), compared to the placebo arm (p=0.002). Over 90% of patients were pruritus responders during the trial, as defined as at least a 1-point drop at any time point. The trial also met the key secondary endpoint showing a statistically significant reduction in serum bile acid concentration from baseline to the average of weeks 20 and 24 (compared to the placebo arm p=0.001). Statistically significant improvements in multiple sleep parameters were observed as early as week 1-4 compared to patients on placebo with continued improvement through week 24. In the trial, there were no patient discontinuations. Bylvay was well tolerated, with an overall adverse event incidence similar to placebo and a low incidence of drug-related diarrhea (11.4% vs. 5.9% placebo).<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>About <\/strong><strong>Bylvay<\/strong><sup><strong>\u00ae<\/strong><\/sup><strong> (<\/strong><strong>odevixibat<\/strong><strong>)<\/strong><br \/>Bylvay is a potent, once-daily, non-systemic IBATi that acts locally in the small intestine and has minimal systemic exposure. It is approved in the U.S. for the treatment of pruritus in patients three months of age and older with PFIC, where it has orphan exclusivity. Bylvay was first launched as a treatment option for patients with PFIC in the U.S. in 2021, where it is supported by a program designed to assist with access to treatment and patient support. Bylvay is also approved in the E.U. for the treatment of PFIC in patients aged six months or older. It has launched in over nine countries and has secured public reimbursement across several major markets including Germany, Italy, the U.K., France and Belgium. <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">View full E.U. prescribing information here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=1C_Rc1GNoH9G4stXz8Re4HxiWDykwG5ccva8yMYa_1NrjlEp_j8fsklvW2c4IKH5Z72SV1oE4KBWLaG5A9Ix6kmiKjEej-Wr_CBojKwEWrRy6qy7T1Kw0IO2O8iChaHW9HJs8AshDf0UTKzXLVnLC1Hldyk1TMK3d5HQINClaH4=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\"><strong>Bylvay<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=T7N0WhN2iOwvIRptGe975i1VKqHHFa0dV1rqTY8lH8z4sXonEpvCb_6PGkPdaCtgKnXE_d4a8uEz_18t35qkH62d4yoJ2jWVYi374nFMkzqNzBBcoWtxhpWJOfizDPJdlIbIIqSw2l4EKhCD9OZlKFCnNVNCp0XeK_1TIuxXrbM=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\"><strong>, INN-<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=E5A-QrCpRm0HfCUNDu4GvynKsQSkoj5vsNEa4fYM4Zebfz7zGDRTMaNyPaZiSRG4Ax-CTCXpwzmrfeSGbvFLyOVoj7sCN2hWx-h-beM6mN2EUNd1W7dQEsQeOMqhXcLYmCtU_APMD43mRmS2Oljb6d-1C-TQSlS7id9OdEexZkjuYqzhrbk-J90X0a-V9Zjt\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\"><strong>odevixibat<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=JADKbs8UnPUHdqWqdRSq6hN59ANhRe7bYjNe-OpW7ngGhP0XxF2pOASWtPTK77q4kzMySUGp1xcedz6PqhE5-Od--TuphK0amdg2QJjkyzrmHiEPetA8NX6mTGaG7hhuwl8DpAgT3yPQQY_DgOK34i8SW-998Gzkdxh1P11Oelit6EPW1bwNqU1MqH_LZWzu\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\"><strong> (europa.eu)<\/strong><\/a><br \/>View full U.S. prescribing information here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=Kv_tzfdlceqV_VEixDtPkxSKQCgX7rUurFzj50Sw-SnaxLEG1SjQHqbMzoh0HCELAxcqudbYzqVAct3iP9mRH74aUNmxGIE5iEab4z8NUvmT3c_Pk0fdf8cG_Eb9ZqLv7aMjZyxm0S57rUpt77G3XnXeY8TQjf1vrXdW2K522dM=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\"><strong>label (fda.gov)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>About the <\/strong><strong>PBC trial: E<\/strong><strong>valuating pruritus and fatigue in patients with treatment-refractory primary biliary cholangitis<\/strong><br \/>Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with 20 patients (aged 28-68 years; 19 females) diagnosed with PBC, (mean 10.7 years since diagnosis) experiencing pruritus (mild [30%], moderate [45%] or severe [25%]), using Institutional Review Board-approved materials.

Such statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially from those anticipated herein. All of the above risks could affect Ipsen\u2019s future ability to achieve its financial targets, which were set assuming reasonable macroeconomic conditions based on the information available today. Use of the words \u2018believes\u2019, \u2018anticipates\u2019 and \u2018expects\u2019 and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, including Ipsen\u2019s expectations regarding future events, including regulatory filings and determinations. Moreover, the targets described in this document were prepared without taking into account external-growth assumptions and potential future acquisitions, which may alter these parameters. These objectives are based on data and assumptions regarded as reasonable by Ipsen. These targets depend on conditions or facts likely to happen in the future, and not exclusively on historical data. Actual results may depart significantly from these targets given the occurrence of certain risks and uncertainties, notably the fact that a promising medicine in early development phase or clinical trial may end up never being launched on the market or reaching its commercial targets, notably for regulatory or competition reasons. Ipsen must face or might face competition from generic medicine that might translate into a loss of market share. Furthermore, the research and development process involves several stages each of which involves the substantial risk that Ipsen may fail to achieve its objectives and be forced to abandon its efforts with regards to a medicine in which it has invested significant sums. Therefore, Ipsen cannot be certain that favorable results obtained during preclinical trials will be confirmed subsequently during clinical trials, or that the results of clinical trials will be sufficient to demonstrate the safe and effective nature of the medicine concerned. There can be no guarantees a medicine will receive the necessary regulatory approvals or that the medicine will prove to be commercially successful. If underlying assumptions prove inaccurate or risks or uncertainties materialize, actual results may differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Other risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to, general industry conditions and competition; general economic factors, including interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; the impact of pharmaceutical industry regulation and healthcare legislation; global trends toward healthcare cost containment; technological advances, new medicine and patents attained by competitors; challenges inherent in new-medicine development, including obtaining regulatory approval; Ipsen&#8217;s ability to accurately predict future market conditions; manufacturing difficulties or delays; financial instability of international economies and sovereign risk; dependence on the effectiveness of Ipsen\u2019s patents and other protections for innovative medicines; and the exposure to litigation, including patent litigation, and\/or regulatory actions. Ipsen also depends on third parties to develop and market some of its medicines which could potentially generate substantial royalties; these partners could behave in such ways which could cause damage to Ipsen\u2019s activities and financial results. Ipsen cannot be certain that its partners will fulfil their obligations. It might be unable to obtain any benefit from those agreements. A default by any of Ipsen\u2019s partners could generate lower revenues than expected. Such situations could have a negative impact on Ipsen\u2019s business, financial position or performance. Ipsen expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to update or revise any forward-looking statements, targets or estimates contained in this press release to reflect any change in events, conditions, assumptions or circumstances on which any such statements are based, unless so required by applicable law.
