Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) has announced an out-licensing agreement with Esteve Pharmaceuticals for the commercialization of Increlex® in all markets outside the United States. The agreement grants Esteve licensing rights for up to ten years, along with a future acquisition option for international rights.
Under the partnership, Eton will supply the product to Esteve at a fixed transfer price. This strategic move allows Eton to concentrate on its U.S. growth opportunities, including three planned rare disease product launches in 2025, while avoiding significant international infrastructure investments. The company maintains its projection to reach an $80 million annual revenue run rate by the end of 2025.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) reported record Q4 2024 product revenue of $11.6 million, marking a 59% increase over Q4 2023 and the 16th consecutive quarter of sequential growth. The company achieved several major milestones:
Key developments include the acquisition and January relaunch of Increlex, a pediatric endocrinology biologic, and the acquisition and March relaunch of Galzin for rare diseases. The company also licensed U.S. rights to Amglidia and reported positive pivotal study results for ET-600, with NDA submission planned for April 2025.
Financial highlights: Gross profit reached $6.5 million in Q4 2024, up from $3.6 million in Q4 2023. The company reported a reduced net loss of $0.6 million ($0.02 per share) compared to $2.3 million ($0.09 per share) in the prior year period. Cash position stood at $14.9 million as of December 31, 2024.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) has announced positive results from its bioequivalence study for ET-600, a patented oral solution of desmopressin designed to treat central diabetes insipidus. The pivotal study, involving 75 human subjects, demonstrated pharmacokinetic equivalence to the FDA-approved reference product.
The study was conducted as an open label, balanced, randomized, single-dose, three-treatment, three-sequence, three-period, three-way crossover oral bioequivalence study. Following these successful results, Eton plans to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA in April 2025.
If approved, ET-600 would become the only FDA-approved oral liquid formulation of desmopressin, particularly beneficial for pediatric patients requiring precise and titratable doses. The company anticipates a potential commercial launch in the first quarter of 2026.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) has scheduled a virtual Investor Day and Q4 2024 earnings release for March 18, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. ET.

Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) has announced the commercial launch of Galzin® (zinc acetate) capsules, the only FDA-approved zinc therapy for Wilson disease maintenance treatment. The company aims to expand patient access through its Eton Cares Program, offering $0 co-pay for eligible patients and comprehensive support services.
The medication is now exclusively available through Optime Care, a specialty pharmacy focused on rare diseases. The Eton Cares Program includes prescription fulfillment, insurance benefits investigation, and educational support. The company is actively investing in research and development to advance Wilson disease treatment.
Important safety information includes monitoring for copper deficiency and gastric ulcers during long-term use. Patients should take Galzin on an empty stomach, and regular clinical monitoring is required to ensure therapy adequacy.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) has been granted U.S. Patent No. 12,214,010 for ET-600, its proprietary formulation of desmopressin oral solution, providing patent protection through 2044. The patent is expected to be listed in the FDA Orange Book upon product approval.
ET-600 is being developed for diabetes insipidus treatment, particularly addressing the unmet pediatric need for precise, titratable liquid doses. Currently, desmopressin is only FDA-approved in injectable, tablet, and nasal forms, forcing pediatric patients to rely on compounding pharmacies or attempt fractional tablet dosing.
The product successfully completed a pilot bioequivalence study in 2024 and is currently in pivotal bioequivalence testing, with results expected by end of February. If successful, Eton plans to submit a New Drug Application to the FDA by Q2 2025.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: ETON) announced that the FDA has extended the PDUFA goal date for its New Drug Application (NDA) for ET-400 to May 28, 2025, from the original date of February 28, 2025. The three-month extension was implemented to allow the FDA additional time to review supplemental information provided in December in response to their request.
The company states it has fully addressed all FDA questions with no outstanding requests. CEO Sean Brynjelsen expressed confidence in the NDA package and indicated that this standard extension is not expected to significantly impact their 2025 revenue projections. The drug is intended as a therapy for pediatric rare diseases.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ETON) has announced the acquisition of Galzin® (zinc acetate), an FDA-approved maintenance treatment for Wilson Disease. The drug serves an ultra-rare patient population with less than 5,000 patients currently being treated in the United States.

Patients will have access to the Eton Cares support program, offering $0 co-pay for qualified commercial patients, prescription fulfillment, insurance benefits investigation, and educational support.
The acquisition also includes European rights to the product, where it's marketed as Wilzin® through a third-party distributor. Eton will continue supplying the product while the third party manages European commercialization. Stifel acted as exclusive financial advisor for the transaction.
Eton Pharmaceuticals has completed its acquisition of Increlex® (mecasermin injection) from Ipsen S.A. Increlex® is a biologic treatment for pediatric patients aged 2+ with severe primary insulin-like growth factor 1 deficiency (SPIGFD). The product is approved in 41 territories, including the US and EU, and is the only FDA/EMA-approved treatment for SPIGFD, serving approximately 200 US patients and 900-1,000 European patients.

The Eton Cares Program offers prescription fulfillment, insurance benefits investigation, and financial assistance, including $0 co-pays for qualifying patients. Outside the US, Ipsen will continue distribution during a six-month transition period before Eton takes over commercialization.
Eton Pharmaceuticals (ETON) announced compelling results from a clinical trial evaluating PKU GOLIKE for treating phenylketonuria (PKU) during prolonged fasting periods. The randomized, crossover study demonstrated that PKU GOLIKE, when administered as the last daily dose, significantly improved metabolic control compared to standard amino acid protein substitutes.
Key findings showed PKU GOLIKE achieved a 17.8% reduction in blood phenylalanine (Phe) levels and a 33.8% increase in blood tyrosine (Tyr) levels after overnight fasting. In contrast, standard treatments led to a 27.6% increase in Phe levels with no significant Tyr improvement. The study was conducted at Birmingham Children's Hospital, UK, on pediatric patients with classical PKU.
