Management Commentary
“We entered 2021 well positioned to further grow VASCEPA revenue in the U.S. while expanding internationally as we continue to lead the creating of an important new paradigm in preventative cardiovascular care beyond cholesterol management for at-risk patients,” stated John F. Thero, president and chief executive officer. “Our record revenue for the fourth quarter and full year of 2020, despite the headwinds we faced from the COVID-19 pandemic, underscores the large, untapped market need for VASCEPA in its new indication of persistent cardiovascular risk (P-CVR) reduction in the United States. We continue to focus our efforts on increasing awareness and education of P-CVR and VASCEPA’s demonstrated benefits in reducing that risk as proven in the landmark REDUCE-IT® study.”
“The positive CHMP opinion, as recently announced, leads us to expect the European Commission to render its formal approval of VAZKEPA in April 2021. The CHMP opinion and anticipated approval are significant milestones for Amarin that brings us closer to making this important drug available in Europe to millions of patients at high risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. Our growing commercial team in Europe is advancing commercial launch plans with unbranded engagement, and preliminary market access discussions are underway in certain key markets.”
“Our global expansion plans are being further advanced by the progress of our partner in the China region, Edding, which includes Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Edding is making tremendous progress across several key initiatives critical to the successful approval and launch of VASCEPA in the region, including the positive readout from their pivotal Phase 3 clinical study, inclusion of icosapent ethyl in the treatment guidelines of the CSC, the acceptance of the regulatory filing related to Mainland China with the NMPA and the introduction of VASCEPA in the Hainan Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone program. The China region represents a very significant market opportunity and we continue to work closely with Edding in support of their efforts to bring this important therapeutic to the millions of patients in the China region with high triglycerides who are at risk of cardiovascular events.”
“Amarin has a very dynamic year ahead and we expect to achieve a number of potentially value-creating milestones and to advance our leadership in cardiovascular risk reduction,” concluded Mr. Thero.
U.S. Prescription Growth
Normalized prescriptions for VASCEPA (prescription of 120 grams of VASCEPA representing a one-month supply) in the United States increased by approximately
Following a temporary suspension of in-person promotional activities in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and quarantine in the United States, in June 2020 Amarin resumed field-based, face-to-face interactions with healthcare providers, to the extent such healthcare providers allow. For the second half of 2020, substantially all of the company’s field force personnel had the ability to resume face-to-face customer interactions, though such interactions became more challenging in the fourth quarter of 2020 with the resurgence of COVID-19. While Amarin utilizes various means to interact with healthcare professionals virtually and digitally, such interactions tend to be less impactful than frequent in-person communications. This is particularly true for VASCEPA, as it is being newly introduced to many healthcare professionals as a treatment for cardiovascular risk reduction based on its second FDA indication, which had launched in January 2020.
Complications in 2020 from COVID-19 were exacerbated as many at-risk patients in 2020 delayed doctors’ visits and blood tests. In the United States, public reports from IQVIA showed patient visits to medical offices for non-emergency medical care were down approximately
In November 2020, a generic version of VASCEPA was launched in the United States, and that generic drug is indicated only as an adjunct to diet for lowering triglyceride levels in adult patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia (TG ≥500 mg/dL), which based on industry data, represents no more than approximately
In late 2020 and early 2021, various managed care companies improved their insurance coverage of branded VASCEPA. In addition, many insurance companies and patients have reported that branded VASCEPA is less expensive to them than the generic version and the wholesale acquisition cost of branded VASCEPA continues to be lower than that of other branded drugs with positive outcomes study results. In these and other ways, this is an atypical generic launch in the United States. Amarin believes the untapped market opportunity in the cardiovascular risk reduction indication is large and that more patients will be helped by VASCEPA with continued investment in market education regarding its benefits. Amarin’s goal is to grow the market faster than generic competition can take share. Amarin intends to vigorously defend its intellectual property rights.
European Market Expansion
Amarin is seeking to commence commercial sale of VAZKEPA in one or more countries of Europe before the end of 2021. On January 28, 2021, Amarin received a positive CHMP opinion, which recommended marketing authorization be granted for icosapent ethyl in the European Union for cardiovascular risk reduction under the brand name VAZKEPA. Approval of VAZKEPA for marketing and sale by the European Commission is expected in April 2021. The need for preventative cardiovascular care beyond cholesterol management is potentially as large or larger in Europe than the United States.
Market access in Europe is managed on a country-by-country basis and, consequently, the timing for receiving market access for each European country will vary significantly. Amarin is planning a staged launch in Europe, including likely launch in 2021 in Germany, Europe’s largest market. In preparation for commercial launch, Amarin’s team in Europe has increased to approximately 50 experienced professionals and is targeted to increase to approximately 200 employees by the end of 2021. Additional information regarding securing market access in Europe and Amarin’s commercialization plans in Europe can be found in the FAQ section under investor relations at www.amarincorp.com.
Rest of World
China
In November 2020, Amarin’s partner in the China region, Edding, shared positive, statistically significant top line results from their Phase 3 clinical trial of VASCEPA. In December 2020, the CSC included icosapent ethyl in its updated Guidelines for Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases for 2021 as published in the Chinese Journal of Cardiovascular Diseases. In January 2021, VASCEPA was accepted for introduction into the Hainan Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone program. Most recently, in Mainland China, the Chinese National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) accepted for review the New Drug Application for VASCEPA. Edding currently anticipates receiving a decision in Mainland China and, separately in Hong Kong, near the end of 2021, followed by steps to ensure that this unique therapy is reimbursed in the major provinces of Mainland China as the first and only drug for its important potential indication for use based on VASCEPA’s demonstrated clinical results. With approximately 180.4 million hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) patients in Mainland China in 2019, representing approximately
Canada, Middle East and Other
Cardiovascular disease is a growing public health burden globally. Amarin has elected to pursue VASCEPA approval in limited countries initially with plans to seek regulatory approvals in other geographies after the product is launched and has market access in Europe. Limited exceptions are in select countries of the Middle East and in Canada where promotion of VASCEPA has commenced in a phased manner.

Use of Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Information
Included in this press release are non-GAAP adjusted financial information as defined by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation G. The GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to each non-GAAP adjusted financial measure used or discussed, and a reconciliation of the differences between each non-GAAP adjusted financial measure and the comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in this press release after the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Non-GAAP adjusted net income was derived by taking GAAP net (loss) income and adjusting it for non-cash stock-based compensation expense. Management uses these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures for internal reporting and forecasting purposes, when publicly providing its business outlook, to evaluate the company’s performance and to evaluate and compensate the company’s executives. The company has provided these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to GAAP financial results because it believes that these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures provide investors with a better understanding of the company’s historical results from its core business operations.
While management believes that these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying performance of the company’s business operations, investors are reminded to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the company’s results of operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, it should be noted that these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, and management may utilize other measures to illustrate performance in the future.

About REDUCE-IT
REDUCE-IT was a global cardiovascular outcomes study designed to evaluate the effect of VASCEPA in adult patients with LDL-C controlled to between 41-100 mg/dL (median baseline 75 mg/dL) by statin therapy and various cardiovascular risk factors including persistent elevated triglycerides between 135-499 mg/dL (median baseline 216 mg/dL) and either established cardiovascular disease (secondary prevention cohort) or diabetes mellitus and at least one other cardiovascular risk factor (primary prevention cohort).
REDUCE-IT, conducted over seven years and completed in 2018, followed 8,179 patients at over 400 clinical sites in 11 countries with the largest number of sites located within the United States. REDUCE-IT was conducted based on a special protocol assessment agreement with FDA. The design of the REDUCE-IT study was published in March 2017 in Clinical Cardiology.1 The primary results of REDUCE-IT were published in The New England Journal of Medicine in November 2018.2 The total events results of REDUCE-IT were published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology in March 2019.3 These and other publications can be found in the R&D section on the company’s website at www.amarincorp.com.
About VASCEPA® (icosapent ethyl) Capsules
VASCEPA (icosapent ethyl) capsules are the first-and-only prescription treatment approved by the U.S. FDA comprised solely of the active ingredient, icosapent ethyl (IPE), a unique form of eicosapentaenoic acid. VASCEPA was launched in the United States in January 2020 as the first and only drug approved by the U.S. FDA for treatment of the studied high-risk patients with persistent cardiovascular risk after statin therapy. VASCEPA was initially launched in the United States in 2013 based on the drug’s initial FDA approved indication for use as an adjunct therapy to diet to reduce triglyceride levels in adult patients with severe (≥500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia. Since launch, VASCEPA has been prescribed over ten million times. VASCEPA is covered by most major medical insurance plans. In addition to the United States, VASCEPA is approved and sold in Canada, Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates. In Europe, approval is anticipated in April 2021 following the January 28, 2021 favorable opinion of the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommending that marketing authorisation be granted to icosapent ethyl in the European Union for the reduction of risk of cardiovascular events in patients at high cardiovascular risk, under the brand name VAZKEPA®.
Indications and Limitation of Use (in the United States)
VASCEPA is indicated:
- As an adjunct to maximally tolerated statin therapy to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, coronary revascularization and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adult patients with elevated triglyceride (TG) levels (≥ 150 mg/dL) and
- established cardiovascular disease or
- diabetes mellitus and two or more additional risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
- As an adjunct to diet to reduce TG levels in adult patients with severe (≥ 500 mg/dL) hypertriglyceridemia.
The effect of VASCEPA on the risk for pancreatitis in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia has not been determined.
Important Safety Information
- VASCEPA is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity (e.g., anaphylactic reaction) to VASCEPA or any of its components.
- VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (
3% vs2% ) of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter requiring hospitalization in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of atrial fibrillation was greater in patients with a previous history of atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter. - It is not known whether patients with allergies to fish and/or shellfish are at an increased risk of an allergic reaction to VASCEPA. Patients with such allergies should discontinue VASCEPA if any reactions occur.
- VASCEPA was associated with an increased risk (
12% vs10% ) of bleeding in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of bleeding was greater in patients receiving concomitant antithrombotic medications, such as aspirin, clopidogrel or warfarin. - Common adverse reactions in the cardiovascular outcomes trial (incidence ≥
3% and ≥1% more frequent than placebo): musculoskeletal pain (4% vs3% ), peripheral edema (7% vs5% ), constipation (5% vs4% ), gout (4% vs3% ), and atrial fibrillation (5% vs4% ). - Common adverse reactions in the hypertriglyceridemia trials (incidence >
1% more frequent than placebo): arthralgia (2% vs1% ) and oropharyngeal pain (1% vs0.3% ). - Adverse events may be reported by calling 1-855-VASCEPA or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.
- Patients receiving VASCEPA and concomitant anticoagulants and/or anti-platelet agents should be monitored for bleeding.
