(Nasdaq: GOSS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of seralutinib for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD), today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, and provided a business update. “Our team at Gossamer continues to execute on our mission to enhance the lives of patients with pulmonary hypertension, underscored by the transformative development and co-commercialization collaboration with Chiesi that we just announced,” said Faheem Hasnain, Co-Founder, CEO, and Chairman of Gossamer Bio. “This transaction immediately adds $160 million in cash to our balance sheet and positions us to accelerate seralutinib into a registrational Phase 3 for the treatment of PH-ILD in the middle of next year. The future of Gossamer and seralutinib is exceptionally bright, and we are excited to see what it holds.” Seralutinib (GB002): Inhaled PDGFR, CSF1R and c-KIT Inhibitor for PAH Enrollment is ongoing in the PROSERA Study, a global registrational Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with WHO Functional Class II and III PAH. The primary endpoint is change in six-minute walk distance (6MWD) from baseline at week 24. Topline results from the PROSERA Study are expected in the fourth quarter of 2025. On May 6, Gossamer Bio and Chiesi Group announced a development and co-commercialization collaboration for seralutinib. Gossamer and Chiesi will split global development costs for seralutinib, except for the PROSERA Study, for which Gossamer will remain solely responsible. Gossamer remains the global development lead in PAH and PH-ILD. In the US, Gossamer and Chiesi will split profits and losses, with Gossamer leading commercialization in PAH and PH-ILD, Chiesi leading in additional indications, and both companies contributing 50 percent of commercial efforts. Chiesi will be solely responsible for commercialization of seralutinib outside of the United States, for which Gossamer will receive mid-to-high teens royalties. Gossamer received a $160 million development reimbursement payment and is eligible to receive up to $146 million in regulatory and $180 million in sales milestones. In mid-2025, after engaging and discussing with global regulatory authorities, we expect to commence a global registrational Phase 3 clinical trial of seralutinib for the treatment of PH-ILD. Lancet Respiratory Medicine published the TORREY Study manuscript. The Phase 2 TORREY Study evaluated the effects of seralutinib in PAH patients, on top of standard of care. The paper, titled "Seralutinib in Adults with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (TORREY): A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase 2 Trial," details the study's significant findings in advancing the treatment of PAH. The manuscript can be accessed at (24)00072-9 and will be featured in an upcoming print version of the journal. Updated data from the ongoing TORREY Open Label Extension Study of seralutinib in patients with PAH will be featured in at the American Thoracic Society (ATS) 2024 International Conference taking place in San Diego.
