"I am very pleased with the continued growth of TYMLOS, which has become the preferred treatment for postmenopausal osteoporosis patients starting on anabolic therapy. We are confident that in 2020 we will reach leadership in the U.S. TRx anabolic market and complete the recruitment of our three ongoing Phase 3 studies with abaloparatide-SC in male osteoporosis, abaloparatide-patch and elacestrant," said Jesper Hoeiland, President and Chief Executive Officer of Radius.

TYMLOS exited the year reaching market leadership in new anabolic patient starts with a 52% market share and a 42% total U.S. anabolic market share in December. A 7.9% price increase for TYMLOS took effect on January 1, 2020.

For 2020, Radius expects full-year TYMLOS U.S. net revenue to be between $220 to $235 million and its full-year cash burn to be below $80 million.

Radius’ strategy is to expand the TYMLOS label to include treatment for male osteoporosis, as well as transform the use of anabolic therapy to serve unmet needs of high-risk osteoporosis patients with the development and potential launch of abaloparatide-patch. The Company’s abaloparatide-patch Phase 3 wearABLe study was initiated in August 2019 and is expected to deliver top-line results in the second half of 2021.

The Company’s elacestrant Phase 3 EMERALD study is on track to complete recruitment in the third quarter of this year. Given its refined focus on bone health and targeted endocrine diseases, the Company is evaluating strategic options for its oncology assets to maximize their potential value.
