OPERATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS
December 2012 and January 2013, Vanda announced positive results for two Phase III studies for tasimelteon in the treatment of Non-24. The SET Phase III study demonstrated that tasimelteon was able to entrain the master body clock as measured by
melatonin and cortisol circadian rhythms. Tasimelteon was also shown to significantly improve clinical symptoms across a number of sleep and wake measures. These results provided robust evidence of direct and clinically meaningful benefits to
patients with Non-24. The RESET Phase III study demonstrated the maintenance effect of 20mg of tasimelteon to entrain melatonin and cortisol circadian rhythms in individuals with Non-24. Patients treated with tasimelteon maintained their clinical
benefits while patients receiving placebo showed significant deterioration in measures of nighttime sleep, daytime naps and timing of sleep. Non-24 is a serious, rare circadian rhythm disorder that affects a majority of totally blind individuals who
lack light perception and cannot entrain (reset) their master body clock to the 24-hour day. Currently there is no approved treatment for Non-24.
Vanda plans to submit an NDA to the FDA in mid-2013. Vanda will meet with the FDA in Q1 of 2013 for a pre-NDA meeting on tasimelteon in the treatment of patients with Non-24.
Vanda has decided to discontinue all activities related to the MDD indication. In January, Vanda announced
that the MAGELLAN Phase IIb/III clinical study in MDD did not meet the primary endpoint of a change from baseline in the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) after 8 weeks of treatment as compared to placebo.
Vanda has formally appealed the EMA s negative opinion for FanaptumTM (oral iloperidone tablets) and requested a re-examination of the decision by the EMA s Committee for Medicinal
Product for Human Use (CHMP). In December 2012, the CHMP issued a negative opinion recommending against approval of
FanaptumTM for the treatment of schizophrenia in adult
patients in the European Union.
Vanda recorded full year 2012 revenue of $32.7 million including Fanapt royalties of $5.9 million. Fanapt prescriptions, as reported by IMS, were approximately 38,200 for the fourth quarter of 2012. This represents a 1% decrease versus third quarter 2012 prescriptions and
a 13% increase over fourth quarter 2011 prescriptions.
Vanda has scheduled a conference call for today, Tuesday, February 12, 2013, at 10:00 AM ET. During the call, Vanda s management will discuss the fourth quarter and full year 2012 results and
other corporate activities. Investors can call 800-901-5248 (domestic) and 617-786-4512 (international) and use passcode 86594010. A replay of the call will be available beginning Tuesday, February 12, 2013 at 12:00 PM ET and will be accessible
