BioCryst Presents New Data on the Long-term Efficacy and Safety of ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) Across all Ages at EAACI
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: BCRX) today announced new data on the long-term efficacy and safety of ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) for the prophylactic treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in patients across all age groups. 'These data from both clinical trials and real-world settings continue to strengthen the evidence that ORLADEYO is an effective and well-tolerated long-term prophylactic treatment for HAE. Importantly, patients report not only fewer and less severe attacks, but also meaningful improvements in daily functioning and emotional well-being. This contributes to the growing body of evidence supporting the use of ORLADEYO as a long-term prophylactic option for adolescents and adults living with HAE,' said Helen Thackray, chief research and development officer of BioCryst. The following four studies were presented at the European Academy of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (EAACI) meeting in Glasgow, United Kingdom, from June 13 to 16, 2025. Berotralstat Use Reduced Number of HAE Attacks Requiring Treatment or Professional Care in Pediatric Patients: Interim Results from APeX-P The ongoing open-label APeX-P study is evaluating the pharmacokinetic, safety, and effectiveness of berotralstat in children aged 2 to 11 years with HAE. Patients were enrolled into four weight-based cohorts. Cohort 1 received a 150 mg capsule once daily; cohorts 2-4 received once-daily oral granule doses of 108 mg, 96 mg and 78 mg, respectively. The median age was 8 years (range: 3–11), with disease onset typically between ages 2–6 years. All patients received standard of care (SOC) treatment for 12 weeks prior to the study. Key results Eighty-six percent reduction in attacks requiring professional care: attacks dropped from 22 during the 12-week SOC period to three following 12 weeks of berotralstat treatment Early/rapid and sustained reduction in the rate of HAE attacks requiring on-demand treatment Mean (SEM) adjusted monthly attack rate decreased from 1.28 (0.25) during SOC to 0.38 (0.13) from day one to week four of berotralstat treatment Sustained reduction for up to 48 weeks of follow-up Berotralstat was well tolerated across all cohorts; the most common treatment-emergent adverse events were nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection, and headache. Assessment of the Effectiveness and Tolerability of Berotralstat for Long-term Prophylaxis in Hereditary Angioedema: Findings from the Berolife Study The Berolife study is an open-label observational study in France which assessed the real-world tolerability and effectiveness of oral once-daily berotralstat (150 mg) in patients with HAE aged >12 years. A total of 82 patients were enrolled, with a mean (SD) age of 40.0 (17.5) years. The mean (SD) baseline attack rate was 1.1 (1.0) attacks per month (median: 0.83), based on the six months prior to enrollment. Key results Significant reduction in monthly HAE attacks was observed at six months (in patients with follow-up data (n=37)) Median monthly attack rate decreased from 1.0 to 0.44 attacks after six months of berotralstat treatment Sustained reductions in attack frequency maintained at 12, 18, and 24 months Berotralstat was well tolerated throughout the study period Adverse events were consistent with previous clinical trial data Impact of Berotralstat on Quality of Life in Patients with Hereditary Angioedema This analysis assessed the impact of berotralstat on patient-reported quality of life (QoL) outcomes compared to placebo, using pooled data from previous Phase 3 APeX-2 and APeX-J clinical trials which showed that once-daily berotralstat 150 mg significantly reduced the frequency of HAE attacks. This QoL assessment was measured using the validated Angioedema Quality of Life Questionnaire (AE-QoL), which evaluates four key domains: functioning, fatigue/mood, fears/shame, and nutrition. Key results Significant improvements in AE-QoL total and domain scores were observed with berotralstat versus placebo at week 24 Benefits sustained through week 96, indicating lasting improvement in daily life At week 24, 60 percent of patients receiving berotralstat achieved the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) in AE-QoL total score, compared to 52.4 percent in the placebo group Over time, the proportion of patients reaching MCID increased in the berotralstat cohort, suggesting progressive and cumulative improvements in QoL alongside reductions in HAE attack frequency Patients With HAE Report Positive Perceptions Following Berotralstat Treatment: Results from a Focus Group This qualitative study explored patient experiences with HAE, including their care journey and perceptions of treatment with berotralstat. Focus groups were conducted to gain insight into the real-world impact of berotralstat on patients' daily lives. Seven patients from France, aged 20-70 years, participated in the focus groups. All had been treated with berotralstat for at least six months, with a median age at HAE diagnosis of 28 years. Prior to starting berotralstat, the majority of participants (71 percent) had switched from previous treatments due to long-term tolerability concerns and guidance from health authorities. Key findings Participants reported notable improvements in disease control, including reduced frequency and severity of HAE attacks Minimal side effects were observed Berotralstat was described as less burdensome and easier to incorporate into daily routines compared to previous therapies Improved disease management was associated with reduced psychological distress and a greater sense of normalcy, contributing to enhanced quality of life About ORLADEYO® (berotralstat)ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) is the first and only oral therapy designed specifically to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older. One capsule of ORLADEYO per day works to prevent HAE attacks by decreasing the activity of plasma kallikrein. U.S. Indication and Important Safety Information INDICATIONORLADEYO® (berotralstat) is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor indicated for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults and pediatric patients 12 years and older. Limitations of useThe safety and effectiveness of ORLADEYO for the treatment of acute HAE attacks have not been established. ORLADEYO should not be used for the treatment of acute HAE attacks. Additional doses or dosages of ORLADEYO higher than 150 mg once daily are not recommended due to the potential for QT prolongation. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATIONAn increase in QT prolongation was observed at dosages higher than the recommended 150 mg once-daily dosage and was concentration dependent. The most common adverse reactions (≥10% and higher than placebo) in patients receiving ORLADEYO were abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, back pain, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. A reduced dosage of 110 mg taken orally once daily with food is recommended in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C). Berotralstat is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein. P-gp inducers (eg, rifampin, St. John's wort) may decrease berotralstat plasma concentration, leading to reduced efficacy of ORLADEYO. The use of P-gp inducers is not recommended with ORLADEYO. ORLADEYO at a dose of 150 mg is a moderate inhibitor of CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. For concomitant medications with a narrow therapeutic index that are predominantly metabolized by CYP2D6 or CYP3A4, appropriate monitoring and dose titration is recommended. ORLADEYO at a dose of 300 mg is a P-gp inhibitor. Appropriate monitoring and dose titration is recommended for P-gp substrates (eg, digoxin) when coadministering with ORLADEYO. The safety and effectiveness of ORLADEYO in pediatric patients <12 years of age have not been established. There are insufficient data available to inform drug-related risks with ORLADEYO use in pregnancy. There are no data on the presence of berotralstat in human milk, its effects on the breastfed infant, or its effects on milk production.

BioCryst Highlights Real-world Data Showing ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) Consistently Reduces HAE Attacks Across All Ages
New data shared at the 14th C1-inhibitor Deficiency & Angioedema Workshop supports berotralstat use at all stages of life RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: BCRX) today announced new data which highlights the reduction in the percentage of days with hereditary angioedema (HAE) symptoms among young children initiating berotralstat in the APeX-P trial, and the broad safety and efficacy outcomes observed across all age groups of patients taking ORLADEYO to prevent HAE attacks. 'These data underscore the potential of our oral, once-daily prophylactic treatment to deliver consistent, meaningful benefits for people living with HAE across all stages of life. From young children to adolescents and adults, ORLADEYO continues to show strong efficacy and tolerability, helping patients experience more days free from attacks. These clinical and real-world results give me confidence that we can continue to have a very positive impact on advancing care for all those living with HAE, regardless of their age,' said Helen Thackray, chief research and development officer at BioCryst. The following three studies are being presented at the 14th C1-Inhibitor Deficiency & Angioedema Workshop in Budapest, Hungary from May 29–June 1, 2025. Reduction in Percentage of Days with Angioedema Symptoms Among Young Children Initiating Berotralstat – Interim Results from ApeX-P Oral Presentation - Session IV - Saturday, May 31 - 10:30 – 12:45 (12:00-12:15) The ongoing open-label APeX-P study is evaluating berotralstat in children aged 2 to 11 years with HAE. There were four weight-based cohorts. Cohort 1 from these interim results received 150 mg capsules daily, while cohorts 2–4 received daily oral granule doses of 108, 96, and 78 mg, respectively. The median age was 8 years (range: 3–11), with disease onset typically between ages 2–6 years. Prior to enrollment, patients reported a mean (SD) of 18.0 (20.5) missed school days annually due to HAE. While on berotralstat, at least half of patients were attack-free each month. The percentage of days with angioedema symptoms dropped from a mean (SD) of 11 percent (9.4 percent) during the standard-of-care period, measured pre-study, to 4.0 percent (4.7 percent) over 12 weeks, with this improvement sustained up to 48 weeks. The most common treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection and headache. These interim findings suggest berotralstat may help children with HAE experience fewer symptoms and a more normal daily life. Berotralstat for the Prevention of Hereditary Angioedema Attacks: Results from the Italian Expanded Access Program Oral Presentation - Session VI- Sunday, June 1 - 08:00 – 09:30 (09:00-09:15) In the Italian expanded access program (EAP), 22 patients received berotralstat free of charge until commercial availability, with an additional 12 weeks of treatment to ensure continuity. Safety was monitored throughout, and data on breakthrough attacks, disease control, and quality of life (QoL) were collected. Among 12 patients with available data, median (mean) Angioedema Control Test (AECT) scores improved from 11.5 (12.8) at baseline to 13.0 (14.0) at month three and 16.0 (14.8) at month six, indicating better disease control. Median (mean) AE-QoL total scores decreased from 45.0 (42.3) at baseline to 40.0 (37.6) at month three and 36.2 (34.0) at month six, reflecting clinically meaningful improvements in QoL. All 15 patients still enrolled at program closure transitioned to commercially available ORLADEYO. The treatment was associated with a consistently low HAE attack rate, improved disease control and a safety profile consistent with clinical trial findings. Tolerability and Effectiveness of Berotralstat for Prophylaxis in Adolescents with Hereditary Angioedema: subgroup analysis of the Berolife Study Oral Presentation - Session VI - Sunday June 1 – 08:00-9:30 (08:30-08:45) The Berolife study, a real-world observational study in France, assessed the tolerability and effectiveness of berotralstat in patients with HAE, including a subgroup of adolescents (aged 12–17) who received 150 mg once daily. The mean (SD) baseline attack rate was 1.8 (1.1) attacks/month (median: 1.8), based on the six months prior to enrolment. After six months of treatment, the median monthly attack rate decreased to 0.55 (from 2.25 at baseline), with similar reductions sustained at 12 and 18 months. TEAEs in adolescents were consistent with those seen in the overall Berolife population and in the APeX-2 and APeX-S clinical trials. These findings support berotralstat as an effective and well-tolerated long-term prophylactic option for adolescents with HAE. About ORLADEYO® (berotralstat)ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) is the first and only oral therapy designed specifically to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older.

BioCryst Presents New Real-world Evidence Showing Significant and Sustained Reductions in HAE Attack Rates in Adolescents and People with Severe HAE Following Initiation of ORLADEYO® (berotralstat)
RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., May 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: BCRX) today announced new real-world evidence on the use of oral, once-daily ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) in adolescents and people with severe HAE showing significant and sustained reductions in HAE attack rates through 18 months of follow-up after beginning treatment with ORLADEYO in both patient populations. The real-world evidence was presented in two posters at the 2025 International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research conference (ISPOR), which is being held in Montreal from May 13-16, 2025. 'The outcomes detailed in these posters show how ORLADEYO is making a difference for people living with HAE, in particular those with very severe disease and those who are adolescents. These two groups experienced far fewer attacks per month compared to baseline after starting ORLADEYO. These kinds of real-world results should give physicians as well as their HAE patients the additional confidence to improve control of their attacks,' said Dr. Raffi Tachdjian, associate clinical professor of medicine & pediatrics, division of allergy & clinical immunology, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California Los Angeles. Significant and sustained reductions in attack rates after ORLADEYO initiation The results presented in two posters at ISPOR 2025 were from a retrospective pre-post study using outcomes collected from BioCryst's sole-source pharmacy from December 15, 2020, to January 8, 2024. The poster 'Real-World Hereditary Angioedema Attack Rates Before and After Berotralstat Initiation Among Patients with C1 Inhibitor Deficiency (Type I/II) and ≥8 Attacks/month' (#PCR182) detailed findings from 56 U.S. patients with HAE with C1-inhibitor deficiency (HAE-C1-INH) who received ORLADEYO. Patients experienced significantly lower HAE attack rates while on ORLADEYO in each 90-day follow-up period (1.24-1.90 attacks/month) compared to baseline (7.78-8.23 attacks/month). Patients experienced significantly fewer HAE attacks per month following ORLADEYO initiation during every 90-day follow-up period relative to baseline, including: 6.25 fewer attacks/month (95 percent confidence period (CI): [5.63, 6.87]; p<0.001) at 12 months (days 271-360) 6.43 fewer attacks/month (95 percent CI: [5.78, 7.09]; p<0.001) at 18 months (days 451-540) The poster 'Real-World Hereditary Angioedema Attack Rates Before and After Berotralstat Initiation Among Adolescents' (#PCR132) highlighted outcomes reported from 99 U.S. patients with HAE aged 12-17 years who received ORLADEYO. Patients had significantly lower HAE attack rates while on ORLADEYO during each 90-day follow-up period (0.36-0.76 attacks/month) compared to the mean baseline rate (2.07-2.30 attacks/month). Compared to baseline, adolescents experienced statistically significant and sustained reductions in HAE attack rates after ORLADEYO initiation during each 90-day follow-up period, including: 1.56 fewer attacks/month (95 percent CI: [0.89, 2.23]; p<0.001) at 12 months (days 271-360) 1.85 fewer attacks/month (95 percent CI: [1.12, 2.58]; p<0.001) at 18 months (days 451-540) 'We continue to generate evidence from real-world use of our oral, once-daily prophylactic therapy for HAE that supports its effectiveness in a wide range of people with HAE. Here, we show that ORLADEYO is having a positive impact on attack reduction for younger people and those with severe disease. These additional findings further underscore that ORLADEYO works well for many patients with HAE, regardless of their attack severity, age or other aspects,' said Dr. Donald S. Fong, chief medical officer of BioCryst.
