The financial information presented in this press release may be adjusted at a later date following the completion of customary quarterly financial reviews and audit procedures.

“Myovant delivered on its mission of redefining care for women and for men over the course of calendar-year 2021 as momentum for ORGOVYX and MYFEMBREE launches continued to build, positioning the company for long-term success. Our strong quarterly performance continues to give us the confidence that ORGOVYX and MYFEMBREE have the potential to become standard of care therapies in advanced prostate cancer and uterine fibroids, respectively,” said David Marek, Chief Executive Officer of Myovant Sciences, Inc. “We believe we have set the stage for an important year in 2022 as we seek to drive significant revenue growth with continued ORGOVYX adoption and the potential launch of MYFEMBREE in endometriosis, pending FDA approval, while also expanding our pipeline by advancing relugolix lifecycle opportunities and pursuing business development.”

  • MYFEMBREE net product revenue is estimated to be in the range of $2.3-$2.6 million for fiscal third quarter 2021. New-to-brand prescription (NBRx) share among GnRH antagonists FDA-approved for the treatment of uterine fibroids was 45% in December 2021 compared to 20% in September 2021, reflecting steadily increasing demand for the differentiated clinical profile of MYFEMBREE while growing the class. There were no material changes in channel inventory for MYFEMBREE over the course of fiscal third quarter 2021.

• Pfizer collaboration revenue in fiscal third quarter 2021 was $25.2 million, reflecting the partial recognition of the upfront payment Myovant received from Pfizer in December 2020 and of the regulatory milestone payment that was triggered upon the FDA approval of MYFEMBREE for the management of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in May 2021.

Relugolix is a once-daily, oral gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonist that reduces testicular testosterone, a hormone known to stimulate the growth of prostate cancer, and ovarian estradiol, a hormone known to stimulate the growth of uterine fibroids and endometriosis. ORGOVYX^® (relugolix 120 mg) was approved in the U.S. by the FDA in December 2020 as the first and only oral GnRH receptor antagonist for the treatment of adult patients with advanced prostate cancer, and relugolix (120 mg) is also under regulatory review in Europe for men with advanced prostate cancer. MYFEMBREE^® (relugolix 40 mg, estradiol 1.0 mg, and norethindrone acetate 0.5 mg) was approved in the U.S. by the FDA in May 2021 as the first and only once-daily oral treatment for the management of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women, with a treatment duration of up to 24 months, and by the European Commission and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency in July 2021 and August 2021, respectively, as RYEQO^® for the treatment of moderate to severe symptoms of uterine fibroids in adult women of reproductive age, with no limitation for duration of use.
