DARZALEX Q1 net sales were USD 629 million vs USD 432 million in Q1 18, driven by the continued strong uptake in the US, EU and Japan – resulting in royalties of DKK 502M – we firmly expect to reach net sales USD 3 billion in 2019…

13/5 14:04 af Andrew Carlsen |
In conclusion a very busy Q119, we believe..
| |
13/5 14:05 af Helge Larsen/PI-redaktør |
Can you tell us about your guiding for the hole year?
| |
13/5 14:07 af Andrew Carlsen |
Well we have reiterated our 2019 guidance which is based on our Darzalex sales guidance of USD 3bn...
| |
13/5 14:08 af Andrew Carlsen |
We continue to believe that the MAIA approval will arrive in Q219 and the uptake will be immediate so still confident on our 2019 sales guidance..
| |
13/5 14:08 af jkj |
Sales for dara. Row Q1 were lower than expected, do you have an explanation for this ?
| |
13/5 14:10 af Andrew Carlsen |
The FX effect has to be taken into account. So in Q119 RoW grew by 80% y-o-y in local currency while in USD only 65%. So underlying growth in RoW is very encouraging.
| |
13/5 14:10 af Sukkeralf |
Looking at Darzalex sales in the EU top five countries - I guess Germany is going very well but how do Italy and Spain compare to that right now?
| |
13/5 14:12 af Andrew Carlsen |
We cannot provide updates on specific countries however what you should notice is that 9 additional countries have been added and Darzalex is now in 40 countries
| |
13/5 14:13 af Sukkeralf |
Could Janssen launch Darzalex in first line right after MAIA approval or do they need to negotiate reimbursement first?
| |
13/5 14:14 af Andrew Carlsen |
The process is expected to go in tandem so that we expect an immediate launch with reimbursement in place with as many as possible.
| |
13/5 14:14 af E L |
Can you tell us if the list price for Daratumumab has been raised yet this year, and if so by how much?
| |
13/5 14:15 af Andrew Carlsen |
The list price was raised in January by 3.9%.

Hi Andrew. Jan has in the past been very excited about AXL, especially in lung cancer. But lately we have heard more about DR5 and CD3 x CD20. Has there been any setbacks in AXL? When can we expect to receive any news re. AXL?
| |
13/5 14:16 af Andrew Carlsen |
First of all no setbacks in AXL...
| |
13/5 14:16 af Andrew Carlsen |
Enapotamab (Humax-Axl) continues to be a program that we are very excited about. It should be noted that Enapotamab is the asset that is progressed the furthest after Tisotumab and we expect data at ASCO from the Ph I dose escalation study in NSCLC and in H219 we should get meaningful data from the expansion cohort.
| |
13/5 14:17 af peter12 |
Does dara sc only need one generic FDA approval, or are further approvals needed ?
| |
13/5 14:18 af Andrew Carlsen |
The COLUMBA (Phase III) and PLEAIDES (Phase II) trials will hopefully form the basis for approval in the current indications that IV Darzalex is approved in.
| |
13/5 14:19 af peter12 |
What are the plans with dara IV when dara sc is approved ? Will it be sold at a reduced price for promotion ?
| |
13/5 14:20 af Andrew Carlsen |
Good question. Jassen has not disclosed anything with regards to price yet.
| |
13/5 14:20 af GeorgeBest |
Jan has previously mentioned that TV could have the best effect in pancreatic cancer (according to preclinical results). When will we see clinical data on TV in pancreas?
| |
13/5 14:21 af Andrew Carlsen |
We hope to present data from the Solid tumor basket trial in H219.
| |
13/5 14:21 af Sukkeralf |
The PD-L1/4-1BB BsAb seems to have overtaken CD40/4-1BB bsAb - why ? Do the 4-1BB arm come from the same antibody or are they different moieties ?
| |
13/5 14:22 af Andrew Carlsen |
We are fortunate enough to have two exciting programs with our partner BioNTech and the reason for PD-L1/41BB being slightly further progressed has to do with prioritization and resource allocation. With regards to the 4-1BB arm we have not disclosed this to the public.
| |
13/5 14:22 af Relax |
What can investors expect regarding biotec deals with other companies for the current year 2019?
| |
13/5 14:25 af Andrew Carlsen |
You should neither be surprised nor disappointed with regards to news or no news on deals in 2019. There is always something ongoing which could or could not materialise
.
| |
13/5 14:25 af Sukkeralf |
In the Q1 CC you talked about partnering up DR5/DR5 or CD20/CD3 if data looks very promissing - and that you would hold on to 50% and rights to commercialization in the US. In your collaboration with Seattle Genetics for tisotumab vedotin they have the commercialization rights in the US. So which part of the world would you focus on until you can take on the whole world by yourself?
| |
13/5 14:28 af Andrew Carlsen |
Given the US market is a very large and attractive market it is naturally a focus market from our side. We will be very strategic about our approach depending on if we go alone or together with a partner.
| |
13/5 14:28 af Sukkeralf |
Regarding future partnerships would you rather have very specific partnerships on a single candidate (like DR5/DR5 or CD20/CD3) or could you be interested in broader partnerships that cover clinical candidates, preclinical candidates and e.g tehc platforms?
| |
13/5 14:31 af Andrew Carlsen |
We are very pragmatic and realistic in our approach to partnerships. If it makes sense and we can find one strategic partner that can maximise one or several of our candidates then we will do that otherwise deal making will be determined by finding the right partner for the right asset
.
| |
13/5 14:32 af Bulder |
When can we expect to see the first results of the collaboration with Immatics?
| |
13/5 14:34 af Andrew Carlsen |
We have not communicated any timeline, it is early days and by end of 2019 we will have 7 assets in the clinic which is keeping us very
busy.
| |
13/5 14:34 af Bulder |
Will top line data from the SC-combination study be published before filing?
| |
13/5 14:36 af Andrew Carlsen |
We are not aware of when or where the PLEAIDAES data will be presented yet.
| |
13/5 14:36 af bibob |
Hello Andrew. How many countries are awaiting approval for Dara in any combination ?- and when can we expect the approval in Japan in first line.
| |
13/5 14:38 af Andrew Carlsen |
I am unable to give you an answer with regards to number of countries awaiting approval in any combination. However of important markets Japan is expected in H219.
| |
13/5 14:38 af bongobob |
What is the status for commercial foot print Tisotumab. How many of the EU clusters are staffed?
| |
13/5 14:39 af Andrew Carlsen |
We have no updates on commercial footprint other than the progress I ongoing. We have recently opened in Japan.
| |
13/5 14:39 af Solsen |
Dear Andrew Is there any news related to Daratumumab in RA indications. Can we expect trials and data in coming years ?
