We reached thousands of patients with Revuforj and Niktimvo and generated over $275 million in 2025 sales, rapidly advancing the company towards profitability,” said Michael A. Metzger , Chief Executive Officer. “With strong momentum and multiple growth drivers for both products, including increasing uptake of Revuforj in R/R NPM1m AML and the post-transplant setting, Syndax is well positioned for continued growth in 2026 and beyond.” Mr. Metzger continued, “We’ve also made excellent progress advancing our development programs designed to further unlock multi-billion-dollar opportunities for both our medicines. We are positioned to be first to frontline AML with a menin inhibitor, and to expand our impact on chronic GVHD and other fibrotic diseases through CSF-1R inhibition. Earlier this year, we completed enrollment in our Phase 2 IPF trial and remain on track for topline data later this year which could further unlock Niktimvo’s potential as a novel antifibrotic.” Recent Business Highlights and Anticipated Milestones Revuforj® (revumenib) Achieved $44.2 million in Revuforj net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025, a 38% increase over the third quarter of 2025. Revuforj net revenue for the full year 2025 totaled $124.8 million . Observed continued acceleration in demand following the FDA’s approval on October 24, 2025 , of Revuforj for the treatment of relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with a susceptible nucleophosmin 1 mutation (NPM1m) in adult and pediatric patients one year and older who have no satisfactory alternative treatment options. Total Revuforj prescriptions in the fourth quarter of 2025 were approximately 1,150, an approximate 35% increase over the third quarter of 2025. Initiated REVEAL-ND, a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of revumenib in combination with intensive chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients with NPM1m AML in November 2025 . The trial has dual primary endpoints of measurable residual disease (MRD) negative complete remission (CR) and event free survival (EFS) to support the potential for accelerated approval and full approval, respectively. Received the ‘Best New Drug’ award for Revuforj at the Scrip Awards in December 2025 . The award recognizes excellence in pharmaceutical development and the drug that represents the best therapeutic advance in its area. Highlighted the company’s leadership in menin inhibition with the presentation of 12 revumenib abstracts, including three oral presentations, at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting in December 2025 . The presentations reported compelling results with revumenib in multiple acute leukemia subtypes across the R/R, frontline, and post-stem cell transplant maintenance setting. The data presented included the first real-world evidence for a menin inhibitor. The results showed an overall response rate (ORR) of 77% (10/13), a measurable residual disease (MRD) negativity rate of 75% (9/12), and favorable tolerability among primarily R/R NPM1m, KMT2Ar, and NUP98r acute leukemia patients who received revumenib in combination with standard of care therapies or as a monotherapy outside of a clinical trial. Multiple clinical trials evaluating revumenib across the acute leukemia treatment continuum are ongoing, such as: EVOLVE-2: A pivotal, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of revumenib in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine in newly diagnosed NPM1m (primary efficacy analysis population) and KMT2Ar AML patients who are unfit for intensive chemotherapy. The trial is being conducted in collaboration with the HOVON network, a leading cooperative clinical trial group with extensive experience studying novel therapies for hematologic malignancies. REVEAL-ND: A pivotal, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of revumenib in combination with intensive chemotherapy in newly diagnosed NPM1m AML patients. SAVE: A Phase 1/2 trial evaluating an all-oral combination of revumenib with venetoclax and decitabine/cedazuridine in pediatric and adult patients with newly diagnosed and R/R AML or mixed-lineage acute leukemia (MPAL) harboring either NPM1m, KMT2Ar, or NUP98r alterations. The trial is being conducted by investigators from MD Anderson Cancer Center. New data presented at the 2025 ASH Annual Meeting from the first cohort of newly diagnosed patients showed a complete remission (CR) rate of 76% (16/21), an ORR of 86% (18/21), and a MRD negativity rate among responders of 100% (18/18). Intensive chemotherapy: Two ongoing Phase 1 trials evaluating the combination of revumenib with intensive chemotherapy (7+3) in newly diagnosed NPM1m or KMT2Ar acute leukemia patients. Preliminary data presented from both trials at the 2025 ASH Annual Meeting showed that the safety profile of the combination was consistent with the profile for intensive chemotherapy alone, along with high rates of response and MRD negativity. BEAT AML: A Phase 1 trial evaluating the combination of revumenib with venetoclax and azacitidine in newly diagnosed older adults (≥60 years) with NPM1m or KMT2Ar AML. The trial is being conducted as part of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Beat AML® Master Clinical Trial. Data presented at the 2025 European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress and simultaneously published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology showed a CR rate of 67% (29/43), an ORR of 88% (38/43), and a MRD negativity rate of 100% (37/37) among responders. Post-transplant maintenance: A Phase 1 trial evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of revumenib as post-transplant maintenance after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in patients with KMT2Ar or NPM1m acute leukemia. The trial is being conducted by investigators from the City of Hope Medical Center . Break Through Cancer: A Phase 2 trial studying whether the combination of revumenib and venetoclax can eliminate MRD in patients with AML and extend progression-free survival. The trial is being conducted by Break Through Cancer, a collaboration between leading U.S. cancer research centers. INTERCEPT: A Phase 1 trial evaluating the use of novel therapies, including revumenib, to target MRD and early relapse in AML. The trial is being conducted by the Australasian Leukaemia and Lymphoma Group as part of the INTERCEPT AML master clinical trial. The Company expects to present additional revumenib data at major medical meetings throughout 2026, including additional real-world evidence and data from the frontline and post-HSCT maintenance setting. The Company expects the RAVEN trial to initiate in the second half of 2026. RAVEN is a Phase 2 collaborative trial of revumenib in combination with venetoclax and azacitidine in newly diagnosed KMT2Ar patients who would be considered eligible, or fit, for intensive chemotherapy. Niktimvo™ (axatilimab-csfr) Achieved $56.0 million in Niktimvo net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2025, a 22% increase over the third quarter of 2025. Niktimvo net revenue for the full year 2025 totaled $151.6 million . Syndax and Incyte are co-commercializing Niktimvo. Syndax records 50% of the Niktimvo net commercial profit, defined as net product revenue minus the cost of sales and commercial expenses. Syndax’s share of the Niktimvo product contribution, reported as collaboration revenue, was $19.4 million and $42.4 million in the fourth quarter and full year 2025, respectively. Presented data from 11 axatilimab abstracts, including three oral presentations, at the 2025 ASH Annual Meeting. The abstracts highlighted the potential for axatilimab to provide long-term benefit in recurrent or refractory chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and the tolerability of axatilimab with ruxolitinib in newly diagnosed chronic GVHD. Presented data from nine axatilimab abstracts, including one oral presentation, at the Tandem Meetings (Transplantation & Cellular Therapy Meetings of ASTCT® and CIBMTR®) in February 2026 . The data presented included a comprehensive analysis of axatilimab in patients with chronic GVHD-related bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) in two clinical studies. The results show clinical and symptom responses across a spectrum of lung involvement. Two trials evaluating axatilimab in combination with standard of care therapies in newly diagnosed chronic GVHD patients are ongoing, including: A Phase 2, open-label, randomized, multicenter trial of axatilimab in combination with ruxolitinib in patients ≥ 12 years of age with newly diagnosed chronic GVHD. A pivotal Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial of axatilimab in combination with corticosteroids in patients ≥ 12 years of age with newly diagnosed chronic GVHD. Completed enrollment in MAXPIRe, a Phase 2, 26-week randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial of axatilimab on top of standard of care in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in the first quarter of 2026. The Company expects to report topline data in the fourth quarter of 2026. Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results As of December 31, 2025 , Syndax had cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of $394.1 million and 87.7 million common shares and prefunded warrants outstanding. Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $68.7 million , which consisted of $44.2 million in Revuforj net revenue, $19.4 million in Niktimvo collaboration revenue, and $5.1 million in milestone, license and royalty revenue. Total revenue for the full year 2025 was $172.4 million , which consisted of $124.8 million in Revuforj net revenue, $42.4 million in Niktimvo collaboration revenue, and $5.1 million in milestone, license and royalty revenue. The Niktimvo collaboration revenue is derived from the $151.6 million in Niktimvo net revenue that was previously reported by the Company's partner Incyte for the full year 2025. Syndax records 50% of the Niktimvo net commercial profit, defined as net revenue (recorded by Incyte) minus the cost of sales and commercial expenses. Fourth quarter 2025 research and development expenses increased to $78.6 million from $65.5 million for the comparable prior year period, and for the full year 2025 increased to $258.8 million compared to $241.6 million for 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to increased clinical, medical, and employee-related expenses. Fourth quarter 2025 selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $49.9 million from $37.7 million for the comparable prior year period, and for the full year 2025 increased to $179.7 million compared to $120.9 million for 2024. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to increased employee-related expenses and increased sales and marketing expenses related to the U.S. commercial launches of Revuforj and Niktimvo. For the three months ended December 31, 2025 , Syndax reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $68.0 million , or $0.78 per share, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $94.2 million , or $1.10 per share, for the comparable prior year period. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Syndax reported a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $285.4 million or $3.29 per share, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $318.8 million or $3.72 per share for the comparable prior year period. Financial Guidance For the full year of 2026, the Company expects total research and development plus selling, general and administrative expenses to be approximately $400 million , excluding the impact of $50 million in estimated non-cash stock compensation expense. Syndax expects that its operating expense base will remain stable over the next couple of years. As a result, Syndax expects that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, combined with its anticipated product revenue, collaboration revenue and interest income, will enable the Company to reach profitability.
