Omeros Corporation (OMER) announced that the FDA has accepted the resubmission of its Biologics License Application (BLA) for narsoplimab, targeting the treatment of hematopoietic stem cell transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA). The FDA has assigned a PDUFA date in late September 2025.
The Class 2 resubmission includes crucial data showing statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in survival for narsoplimab-treated patients compared to an external control group. Additional data from the company's expanded access program, treating both adult and pediatric TA-TMA patients, was also included.

Omeros (OMER) has established an Oncology Clinical Steering Committee to advance its OncotoX biologics program targeting acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The committee comprises distinguished clinical experts from leading National Comprehensive Cancer Network Centers, chaired by Dr. Naval Daver from MD Anderson Cancer Center.
The OncotoX-AML program features engineered molecules that deliver toxic payloads to cancer cells. In animal studies, the therapeutic has demonstrated superior efficacy to current standard treatments, showing effectiveness against tumors with mutations found in nearly 90% of AML patients. The treatment targets both AML blasts and leukemia stem cells, while preliminary studies indicate good tolerability at doses well above efficacious levels.
AML, affecting over 20,000 U.S. patients annually with 11,000+ deaths, represents a significant market opportunity. The global AML therapeutic market is projected to reach over $6 billion by 2030, within a broader leukemia therapeutic market forecast of $29 billion.
Omeros (OMER) announced the upcoming first public presentation of its proprietary Targeted Complement Activating Therapy™ (T-CAT™) platform at the European Congress on Infectious Diseases 2025. The technology represents a novel class of pathogen-targeting recombinant antibodies designed to combat multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).
T-CAT's unique mechanism involves engineered antibodies containing complement-cleaving enzymes that directly activate complement on microbial cell surfaces, leading to their destruction. In animal studies, T-CAT antibodies demonstrated effectiveness against life-threatening infections caused by several WHO-designated priority bacterial pathogens, showing >99% reduction in organisms and increased survival rates.
The platform aims to address the global MDRO crisis, which causes over 2.8 million resistant infections and 35,000 deaths annually in the U.S. alone. Unlike current antimicrobials, T-CAT antibodies are designed to be effective against various pathogens without promoting drug resistance. The anti-infectives market reached $46 billion in U.S. sales and $135 billion globally in 2024.
Omeros (OMER) reported Q4 2024 financial results with a net loss of $31.4 million ($0.54 per share), compared to Q3 2024's loss of $32.2 million. The full-year 2024 net loss was $156.8 million ($2.70 per share), up from $117.8 million in 2023.
Cash position stood at $90.1 million as of December 31, 2024, marking an $81.7 million decrease from 2023. Significant outlays included $21.7 million for convertible notes repurchase, $19.1 million for narsoplimab drug substance, and $1.9 million for senior debt transactions.
