DUBLIN, Oct. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Theravance Biopharma, Inc. ("Theravance Biopharma" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: TBPH) today announced the publication of a sub-study of the pivotal 12-week, randomized, registrational revefenacin Phase 3 trials (Trials 0126 [NCT02459080] and 0127 [NCT02512510]) for YUPELRI, the first and only FDA approved once-daily nebulized long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), evaluating the area under the curve (AUC) lung function effects in moderate-to-very-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. These data and analyses, published in the International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, reinforce that YUPELRI provides consistent and durable improvements in lung function, as compared with placebo, over a full 24-hours. "Where previous data showed that revefenacin significantly improved peak and trough FEV1 at Day 85 compared with placebo in patients with moderate-to-very-severe COPD, this subset post-hoc analysis depicts a more comprehensive view of 24-hour bronchodilation as assessed by examining AUC over multiple time periods," said Dr. Donald A. Mahler, Emeritus Professor of Medicine at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth in Hanover, NH and Pulmonologist and Respiratory Director at Valley Regional Hospital in Claremont, NH. "It provides additional valuable clinical insight into the duration and consistency of revefenacin over the entire dosing interval." Dr. Blake LeMaster, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Division of Allergy, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, commented, "Importantly, this drug also exhibits a substantial peak response as well as bronchodilation over the initial 2-hour period as exhibited by FEV1 AUC 0-2H." He added, "Clinically meaningful bronchodilation was seen within the first 15 minutes of administration, persisting over the 24-hour duration during which patients underwent serial spirometry. These data demonstrate that revefenacin can provide rapid and prolonged bronchodilation with just a single dose." Key Study Findings: Analysis of a retrospective, pooled sub-study from Phase 3 Studies 0126 and 0127 demonstrated that revefenacin (n = 50) improved bronchodilation versus placebo (n = 47) in patients with moderate-to-very-severe COPD when assessed by FEV1 AUC. Rapid onset of bronchodilation was observed, with a mean FEV1 difference of 145 mL achieved at 15 minutes, exceeding the accepted Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) of 100 mL with approximately 97.5% confidence. Day 84 bronchodilation improvements were sustained over 24 hours vs. placebo, with mean differences of 282 mL, 220 mL, 205 mL and 212 mL for FEV1 AUC0–2h, AUC0–12h, AUC12–24h and AUC0–24h, respectively, (p<0.001 for all). Trough FEV1 is an important endpoint often used in COPD trials and provides the magnitude of lung function benefit at the end of a given dosing interval. FEV1 AUC measurements provide additional information on the magnitude and consistency of bronchodilation throughout the dosing interval, including both daytime and nighttime effects. As patients depend on the magnitude of sustained bronchodilation to address COPD symptoms, combined use of both trough FEV1 and FEV1 AUC may allow for a more comprehensive assessment of bronchodilator efficacy to support clinical decision-making. About Studies 0126 and 0127 Studies 0126 (placebo, n = 209; 88 mcg revefenacin, n = 212; and 175 mcg revefenacin, n = 198), and 0127 (placebo, n = 208; 88 mcg revefenacin, n = 205; and 175 mcg revefenacin, n = 197) were replicate Phase 3 studies which included adults ≥40 years old with documented moderate-to-very-severe COPD, and a current or past smoking history of ≥10 pack-years. Subjects were randomized 1:1:1 to receive revefenacin 88 mcg, revefenacin 175 mcg, or placebo administered once-daily in the morning by a standard jet nebulizer (PARI LC Sprint) for 12 weeks. The prespecified primary efficacy endpoint was change from baseline in trough FEV1 on Day 85. Peak FEV1 on Day 1 was a secondary endpoint and FEV1 AUC from 0 to 2 hours (FEV1 AUC0–2h) on Days 1, 15, 29, 57, and 84 was a prespecified exploratory endpoint1. While both revefenacin 88 mcg and 175 mcg doses were investigated in these trials, the post hoc analysis reported herein focused only on the 175 mcg dose as this is the dose approved by the FDA2. About YUPELRI YUPELRI® (revefenacin) inhalation solution is the first and only once-daily nebulized long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) approved for the maintenance treatment of COPD in the U.S. LAMAs are recognized by international COPD treatment guidelines as a cornerstone of maintenance therapy for COPD.

DUBLIN, Jan. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Theravance Biopharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: TBPH) today announced results from the Phase 4 PIFR-2 study of YUPELRI® (revefenacin) inhalation solution, the only once-daily, nebulized long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) approved in the U.S. for maintenance treatment of COPD. The PIFR-2 study aimed to demonstrate greater improvement in lung function for YUPELRI delivered via standard jet nebulizer compared to Spiriva® (tiotropium) delivered via a dry powder inhaler (Spiriva® HandiHaler®) in adults with severe to very severe COPD and suboptimal peak inspiratory flow rate (PIFR). The study did not show a statistically significant difference between YUPELRI and Spiriva HandiHaler on the primary endpoint, change from baseline in trough forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) at Day 85. Similar lung function improvement was demonstrated in both arms of the study. YUPELRI demonstrated safety and tolerability consistent with its profile in previous clinical studies. Chief Executive Officer Rick E Winningham said: "While the primary endpoint in the Phase 4 PIFR-2 study was not met, YUPELRI demonstrated an efficacy and safety profile consistent with its performance in other clinical studies. We appreciate the growth opportunities that lie ahead for YUPELRI, which is an important option for COPD maintenance care, and look forward to sharing additional details from PIFR-2 in the future, following additional data analyses." About the PIFR-2 Study The Phase 4 PIFR-2 Study (NCT05165485) is a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study, comparing improvements in lung function in adults with severe to very severe COPD (FEV1 <50% of predicted) and suboptimal PIFR (<55 L/min) following once-daily treatment over 12 weeks with either YUPELRI (revefenacin) inhalation solution delivered via standard jet nebulizer or Spiriva (tiotropium) delivered via a dry powder inhaler (Spiriva HandiHaler). YUPELRI is approved in the U.S. for the maintenance treatment of patients with COPD; Spiriva HandiHaler is approved in the U.S. for the long-term, once-daily, maintenance treatment of bronchospasm associated with COPD, and for reducing COPD exacerbations. About YUPELRI® YUPELRI® (revefenacin) inhalation solution is a once-daily nebulized long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) approved for the maintenance treatment of COPD in the U.S. LAMAs are recognized by international COPD treatment guidelines as a cornerstone of maintenance therapy for COPD, regardless of severity of disease. Our market research indicates there is an enduring population of COPD patients in the U.S. that either need or prefer nebulized delivery for maintenance therapy. The stability of revefenacin in both metered dose inhaler and dry powder inhaler ("MDI/DPI") formulations suggests that revefenacin could also serve as a foundation for novel handheld combination products.
