"The third quarter of 2015 saw significant advancements in our three orphan oncology-focused clinical development programs. We maintained good control of our cash burn,while continuing to fund our clinical developments notably our key asset Livatag®, a short term and very strong value driver for the company. Recurring revenues are progressing and we are working closely with our three U.S. partners - Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Innocutis/Cipher and Dara BioSciences - to improve market penetration and build sales momentum. Our ability to generate revenues from registered products combined with a promising R&D pipeline in orphan oncology distinguish Onxeo from other European biotech companies. We believe that this unique value proposition will enable us to continue growing and realize our goal of becoming a leader in the markets we serve”, commented Judith Greciet, CEO of Onxeo.

Q3 Financial information

Total revenues for the third quarter of 2015 amounted to €1.1 million, out of which:

  • €0.7 million of recurring revenues corresponding to product supplies to commercial partners and royalties on partners’ sales;
  • and €0.4 million of non-recurring revenues, mostly corresponding to the upfront payment (€0.3 million) received from Bruno Pharmaceutici, our new partner for Sitavig® in Italy.

Over the first nine months of the year, total revenues stood at €2.7 million, out of which €2.0 million were recurring revenues versus €0.9 million in 2014. This two-fold increase results from the launch of Beleodaq® and Sitavig® in the U.S. by partners Spectrum Pharmaceuticals and Innocutis/Cipher respectively during the summer of 2014, as well as from the initial supply of Oravig® batches to new U.S. partner Dara BioSciences prior to the launch of the product in October 2015.

Although overall revenues significantly increased compared to last year, Beleodaq® and Sitavig® still face significant competition and high barriers to entry in their respective markets in the U.S. Onxeo’s goal is to foster an active coordination with its partners in order to ensure the best conditions for sales uptake for these products in the important U.S. market.

Over the first 12 months of commercialization in the U.S., Beleodaq® net sales have reached $10 million and Sitavig® sales have reached $2.3 million.

As of September 30, 2015, consolidated cash position amounted to €35.8 million. Operating cash burn over the quarter stood at €7.1 million, in line with expectations. Current cash position, taking into account the cashing in of the 2014 R&D tax credit and a new tranche of the Bpifrance grant for Livatag® (total received in October: €2.9 million), is expected to be sufficient to fund the Company until mid 2017, including the ability to fully support ongoing clinical programs.
