Updates about ORLADEYO
BCRX reported preliminary unaudited ORLADEYO net revenue of $45.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. For the full year of 2021, the revenue was $122 million.
ORLADEYO prescriber base continues to grow significantly and it is now covered by all major payors and national and regional pharmacy benefit managers, which will lead to more patients being reimbursed quickly.
BioCryst is expecting that ORLADEYO will become their most prescribed prophylactic treatment in the next 12 months and revenues in 2022 to more than double in the second year of launch as the company benefits from a full year of reimbursement and continued strong demand from patients and physicians.
