Key Operational Highlights
HETLIOZ® (tasimelteon)
- In January 2022, Vanda announced it has settled its HETLIOZ® patent litigation against MSN Pharmaceuticals Inc. and MSN Laboratories Private Limited. The litigation remains pending against the other defendants.1
- In November 2021, a HETLIOZ® patient filed a federal lawsuit challenging the unlawfulness of Colorado Medicaid's prior authorization criteria, which limited HETLIOZ® coverage to totally blind patients. In response to the lawsuit, Colorado changed its criteria to cover HETLIOZ® for all Non-24 patients and to no longer restrict HETLIOZ® coverage on the basis of vision status. Since then, 10 additional states have revised their criteria to eliminate the restriction of HETLIOZ® coverage to totally blind patients.
Tradipitant
- In February 2022, Vanda reported the results from the Phase III study (VP-VLY-686-3301) of tradipitant in gastroparesis. The study did not meet its prespecified primary endpoint, but significant treatment effects were observed when adjusting for confounding factors. Vanda plans to complete the analysis of the data of this study and prepare for submission to regulatory authorities and scientific journals.2
Fanapt® (iloperidone)
- A Phase III clinical study of Fanapt® in acute manic episodes in patients with bipolar disorder is now more than 50% enrolled and expected to complete enrollment by the end of 2022.
