Neuren Pharmaceuticals Gains AU$50 millions from PRV Sale to Boost Pipeline Development

Nov 06, 2024

Neuren Pharmaceuticals Limited (ASX: NEU) is set to receive around AU$50 million from the sale of a Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher (PRV) by its U.S. partner, Acadia Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ACAD). The PRV, issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following approval of DAYBUE (trofinetide) for treating Rett syndrome, was sold for $150 million, with Neuren entitled to a one-third share. Rett syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder primarily affecting females, with DAYBUE offering symptom relief by targeting inflammatory and neurodevelopmental pathways. This substantial payout will support Neuren's continued investment in its neurodevelopmental drug pipeline, according to CEO Jon Pilcher. At the time of writing, Neuren’s shares are trading at $12.98, marking a 5.8% gain.
