Investor update summary
4 Nov, 2026Strategic priorities and commercial opportunity
Four priorities remain unchanged: grow QUVIVIQ, unlock TRYVIO/JERAYGO, develop daridorexant in autism spectrum disorder and advance pipeline innovation, with disciplined capital allocation.
TRYVIO/JERAYGO (aprocitentan) is positioned as the first and only dual endothelin receptor antagonist approved for systemic hypertension, targeting difficult-to-control hypertension and unmet need among patients with comorbidities.
Differentiators include dual ET-A/ET-B antagonism, once-daily oral dosing, no known drug interactions and elimination independent of kidney function; the market opportunity includes an estimated 36 million patients above BP targets.
US execution targets leading hypertension centers and 300 affiliates, plus nephrology and cardiology practices, reaching 5,000+ priority HCPs; ~4 million patients with stage 3B/4 CKD are in the target population, with 17% estimated directly accessible through centers.
US plans focus on specialist uptake and access, with phased EUCAN commercialization, selected co-promotion and licensing opportunities in other territories; TRYVIO has been commercially available in the US since October 2024, while JERAYGO is approved in the EU, UK, Switzerland and Canada.
Clinical evidence
In PRECISION, aprocitentan 12.5 mg reduced mean office systolic BP by 15.4 mmHg at Week 4 on background therapy; reductions emerged by Week 2 and persisted through 48 weeks, with double-digit reductions across reported Week 36 subgroups.
Week 36 subgroup analyses showed double-digit absolute office systolic BP reductions in stage 3/4 CKD, type 2 diabetes, Black patients and older individuals; analyses were exploratory.
Ambulatory BP fell by 8.1 mmHg at night and 2.6 mmHg during daytime; UACR fell 56% in patients with micro-albuminuria and 67% with macro-albuminuria at Week 36, with stable kidney function reported.
Nearly 90% remained on treatment over 48 weeks; edema/fluid retention was generally early, transient and mild to moderate, with fewer than 1% discontinuing due to edema. No hyperkalemia, hyponatremia or hypotension was reported in the cited trial period.
Launch funding and financial structure
CHF 120 million of committed funding supports launch investment in 2027–2028, comprising CHF 72 million from SPV noteholders and CHF 48 million in contributions; expected break-even is in 2029.
Proposed CHF 72 million SPV notes mature in 2050 and rank between existing A and B notes; financing is backstopped by a significant majority of noteholders and remains subject to required approvals, consents and final documentation.
Proposed sales allocation includes 3% to J&J and 30% of global net sales and net licensing revenue allocated directly; the balance goes to the SPV until debt repayment, after which SPV upside is split 88%/12% with earn-out holders.
SPV noteholders provide CHF 72 million for new notes and a 12% earn-out across aprocitentan, selatogrel and cenerimod after SPV debt repayment; rights to the assets were transferred to Idorsia Investments SARL in connection with repayment of existing notes.
