Q&A highlights

Q: Maybe one kind of on ampreloxetine, then and then I'll have a follow-up on the commercial performance for Rhonda. To start on the manufacturing side, I appreciate your comments that you have some time before the NDA is even filed, let alone launching the product in the US. So you have some time to maybe adjust to whatever policies may come out. Can you just give us a status update of, like, where the current plan for manufacturing is in terms of locations and then where the IP resides? Is it in Ireland, or has that already been placed in the United States?

A: Yeah. Thanks, Marc, for the question. Yeah. The IP for ampreloxetine currently is in Ireland. Manufacturing of the API is outside the United States, in Taiwan. So we will obviously, we've got a lot of time to adjust what you know, where supplies are, etcetera. But we feel pretty good about you know, where we are right now and the flexibility that we've got.

Q: Hi. This is Ria on for Julian. Thank you for taking our question. Just a couple for us. First, on ampreloxetine. Have you received any feedback yet from payers on ampreloxetine and nOH, or is that something that likely occurs after top-line data from Cyprus? And if, like, on that point, what endpoints do you expect payers to be most receptive to?

A: Yes. Thanks, Ria, for the question. As you would likely anticipate, we have started engagement with payers to ensure not only they have an appreciation of the significant need and the burden this disease has on patients so that they fully appreciate what role a therapy like ampreloxetine can serve in this patient population. And we're working very closely to ensure that on the endpoint and likely scenarios of data input from the study readout itself. The messaging, and their reaction and questioning and additional educational support that they may need. In a post-approval situation that they are armed with the right details and support. So we're definitely very active in space now, but, obviously, we've got a bit of time to ensure that we have that segment and critical element in access set up.

Q: Got it. Thank you. And if I could ask one on YUPELRI, could you provide us with an update on the paragraph four filers? Have settlements been reached for all parties?

A: Yeah. Sure. We've settled with five of the eight filers. We have three outstanding litigants. Really no other update other than outside of that.
