PALO ALTO, Calif., Feb. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BridgeBio Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: BBIO) (BridgeBio or the Company), a commercial-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on genetic diseases and cancers, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2023, and provided an update on the Company’s operations.
“Our focus this year is executing on the launch of acoramidis for patients with ATTR cardiomyopathy,” said Neil Kumar, Ph.D., founder and CEO of BridgeBio. “At the same time, we are also focused on fully enrolling three ongoing Phase 3 clinical trials by the end of 2024. Finally, we hope that reading out potentially exciting data from our Phase 1/2 trial in congenital adrenal hyperplasia later this year will let us take the next step in serving that patient community.”
BridgeBio’s key programs:
- Acoramidis (AG10) – Transthyretin (TTR) stabilizer for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM):
- The Company filed an NDA for acoramidis for the treatment of ATTR-CM with the US FDA; the NDA was accepted for review with a PDUFA date of November 29, 2024. The Company has also filed a Marketing Authorization Application for acoramidis with the EMA, which has been accepted for review.
- The regulatory filings were based on data from the Phase 3 ATTRibute-CM study, which met its primary endpoint (Win Ratio of 1.8) with a highly statistically significant p-value (p<0.0001). Additional results from ATTRibute-CM include:
- An 81% survival rate on acoramidis, which approaches the survival rate in the age-matched U.S. database (~85%), and a 0.29 mean annual CVH rate on acoramidis, which approaches the annual hospitalization rate observed in the broader U.S. Medicare population (~0.26);
- Improvements from baseline observed for a large proportion of participants treated with acoramidis on laboratory and functional measures including n-terminal prohormone of brain natriuiretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and 6-minute walk distance;
- Rapid clinical benefit on the composite endpoint of ACM and CVH in participants treated with acoramidis, demonstrated by placebo and acoramidis time-to-first event Kaplan-Meier curves for a composite of ACM and CVH that separated at Month 3 and continued to diverge steadily through Month 30 as presented at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions in November 2023; and
- Acoramidis was well-tolerated with no safety signals of potential clinical concern identified.
- The Company also shared positive results of an open-label, single-arm Phase 3 study conducted in Japan by licensing partner Alexion, AstraZeneca Rare Disease, including that no mortality was reported over the 30 month acoramidis treatment period.
- Additional detailed results of ATTRibute-CM are planned for presentation at 2024 medical meetings.
- Low-dose infigratinib – FGFR1-3 inhibitor for achondroplasia and hypochondroplasia:
- In December 2023, the Company announced the dosing of the first child in PROPEL 3, its global Phase 3 registrational study of infigratinib in achondroplasia.
- In February 2024, the Company announced a partnership with Kyowa Kirin wherein the Company grants Kyowa Kirin an exclusive license to develop and commercialize infigratinib for achondroplasia, hypochondroplasia, and other skeletal dysplasias in Japan; in exchange, the Company will receive an upfront payment of $100 million as well as royalties up to the high-twenties percent on sales of infigratinib in Japan, with the potential for additional milestone-based payments.
- The Company is committed to exploring the potential of infigratinib on the wider medical and functional impacts of achondroplasia, hypochondroplasia and other skeletal dysplasias, and anticipates initiating its clinical program for hypochondroplasia in 2024.
- BBP-418 – Glycosylation substrate for limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I/R9):
- FORTIFY, the global Phase 3 registrational trial of BBP-418, continues to enroll in the U.S. with clinical trial sites planned for Europe and Australia. Full enrollment of the interim analysis population is expected in 2024. The Company believes there is potential to pursue Accelerated Approval for BBP-418 based on recent interactions with the FDA on the use of glycosylated αDG levels as a surrogate endpoint.
- Encaleret – Calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) inhibitor for autosomal dominant hypocalcemia type 1 (ADH1):
- CALIBRATE, the Phase 3 clinical trial of encaleret, continues to enroll; the Company anticipates sharing topline data from CALIBRATE in 2025.
Recent Corporate Updates:
·Secured up to $1.25 billion of capital from Blue Owl and CPP Investments: The raise includes $500 million in cash from Blue Owl and CPP Investments available upon FDA approval of acoramidis in exchange for a 5% royalty on future global net sales of acoramidis, as well as a $450 million credit facility from Blue Owl that refinanced existing senior secured credit, extending maturity from 2026 to 2029 subject to certain conditions.
Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2023 Financial Results:
Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable Securities and Short-term Restricted Cash
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term restricted cash, totaled $392.6 million as of December 31, 2023, compared to cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and short-term restricted cash of $466.2 million as of December 31, 2022. The net decrease of $73.6 million in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and short-term restricted cash was primarily attributable to net cash used in operating activities of $527.7 million and $6.9 million in repurchase of shares to satisfy tax withholdings, primarily offset by net proceeds received of $449.8 million from various equity financings, $6.0 million from stock option exercises, and $3.4 million from common stock issuances under our employee stock purchase plan during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Revenue
Revenue for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023 were $1.7 million and $9.3 million, respectively, as compared to $1.9 million and $77.6 million for the same periods in the prior year, respectively. The net decreases of $0.2 million and $68.3 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023, respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year, were primarily due to license revenue recognized in 2022 upon the transfer of the license in accordance with the Navire-BMS License Agreement which was entered into in May 2022.
Operating Costs and Expenses
Operating costs and expenses for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023 were $179.2 million and $616.7 million, respectively, compared to $131.1 million and $589.9 million, for the same periods in the prior year, respectively.
The overall increase of $48.1 million in operating costs and expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily due to an increase of $39.3 million in research and development and other expenses (R&D) to advance the Company’s pipeline of development programs, an increase of $15.7 million in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses to support commercialization readiness efforts, offset by a decrease of $6.9 million in restructuring, impairment and related charges given that the majority of the restructuring initiatives occurred in the prior year.
The overall increase of $26.8 million in operating costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 , compared to the same period in the prior year, was primarily due to an increase of $55.2 million in R&D expenses to advance the Company’s pipeline of development programs, an increase of $7.4 million in SG&A expenses to support commercialization readiness efforts, offset by a decrease of $35.8 million in restructuring, impairment and related charges given that the majority of the restructuring initiatives occurred in the prior year.
Restructuring, impairment and related charges for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $0.8 million and $7.9 million, respectively. These charges primarily consisted of winding down, exit costs, and severance and employee-related costs. Restructuring, impairment and related charges for the same periods in the prior year were $7.7 million and $43.8 million, respectively. These charges primarily consisted of impairments and write-offs of long-lived assets, severance and employee-related costs, and exit and other related costs.
Stock-based compensation expenses included in operating costs and expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 were $37.1 million, of which $22.5 million is included in R&D expenses, and $14.6 million is included in SG&A expenses. Stock-based compensation expenses included in operating costs and expenses for the same period in the prior year were $22.6 million, of which $8.9 million is included in R&D expenses, and $13.6 million is included in SG&A expenses.
Stock-based compensation expenses included in operating costs and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023 were $115.0 million, of which $61.6 million is included in R&D expenses, and $53.4 million is included in SG&A expenses. Stock-based compensation expenses included in operating costs and expenses for the same period in the prior year were $93.8 million, of which $38.0 million is included in R&D expenses, $54.7 million is included in SG&A expenses, and $1.2 million is included in restructuring, impairment and related charges.
“Coming off of our recent royalty financing, we find ourselves well capitalized to launch acoramidis this year alongside strong new partners who share our confidence in acoramidis’ potential in the ATTR-CM market,” said Brian Stephenson, Ph.D., CFA, Chief Financial Officer of BridgeBio. “We are excited for this launch, as well as for the continued advancement of our late stage pipeline, which we hope will allow us to serve patients with genetic diseases both directly with the advancement of those medicines towards the market as well as by diversifying our top line revenue and enabling reinvestment into the R&D and business development opportunities that will allow us to be sustainable in the long term.”

These forward-looking statements are based upon the current expectations and beliefs of our management as of the date of this press release, and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we assume no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
