Corporate presentation summary
14 Sep, 2026Commercial performance and product portfolio
YCANTH is the only FDA-approved, HCP-administered treatment for molluscum contagiosum, with $15.3M in 2025 revenue (+130% YoY) and $9.4M in H1 2026 (+18% YoY).
Approved in Japan in September 2025 and launched in February 2026; global expansion underway.
Label expansion for YCANTH is targeted through ongoing global Phase 3 trials for common warts, with topline data expected in Q1 and mid-2027.
VP-315 is Phase 3-ready for basal cell carcinoma, showing a 97% objective response rate in Phase 2 and favorable safety.
Multiple key inflection points expected in early to mid-2027, including pivotal trial readouts.
Clinical development and pipeline
YCANTH’s global Phase 3 program for common warts is fully enrolled for COVE-2 and over 50% enrolled for COVE-3, with Torii funding the first $40M of costs.
VP-315 targets basal cell carcinoma with a streamlined Phase 3 program, FDA alignment, and potential expansion to squamous cell carcinoma.
YCANTH leverages the same platform for both molluscum and common warts, utilizing established infrastructure.
Strong IP protection for YCANTH (to 2041) and VP-315 (to 2045) supports long-term commercial potential.
Preparation for EU submission for YCANTH is underway.
Market opportunity and strategy
Common warts represent a $1B+ market in the US, with 22M patients and no FDA-approved treatments.
Basal cell carcinoma has 3.6M annual US cases and a $5.5B addressable market; VP-315 could expand to SCC, adding 1.8M cases.
Commercial infrastructure for molluscum can be leveraged for common warts, targeting overlapping prescribers.
Nearly 80% of surveyed patients would prefer VP-315 over surgery for BCC.
Global rights for YCANTH (outside Japan/Israel) and VP-315 provide partnership and licensing opportunities.
