HETLIOZ® net product sales were $41.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, a 7% decrease compared to $44.5 million in the second quarter of 2021, due in part to continued reimbursement challenges for prescriptions for patients with Non-24.

HETLIOZ® net product sales were $78.2 million in the first six months of 2022, a 7% decrease compared to $83.9 million in the first six months of 2021, due in part to continued reimbursement challenges for prescriptions for patients with Non-24.

Key Operational Highlights
HETLIOZ® (tasimelteon)
Clinical trials for HETLIOZ® in delayed sleep phase disorder (DSPD) and sleep disturbances in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are currently enrolling patients.
Vanda is preparing for the submission of a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for HETLIOZ® in the treatment of insomnia.
Since November 2021, more than 15 states have revised or agreed to revise their Medicaid prior authorization criteria to broaden access to HETLIOZ® for patients with Non-24 and patients with nighttime sleep disturbances in Smith-Magenis Syndrome (SMS).
In July 2022, an Administrative Law Judge struck down a Medicare Part D plan policy that blocked HETLIOZ® coverage for sighted Non-24 patients. Vanda intends to advocate with other Part D plans to challenge similar policies and improve HETLIOZ® access for Non-24 patients.
In January 2022, Vanda settled its HETLIOZ® patent litigation against one of the Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) defendants. The trial for the consolidated lawsuit against the remaining defendants was held in March 2022. A decision is expected from the court by the end of 2022.
Tradipitant
Vanda is continuing to conduct an open-label safety study for tradipitant in gastroparesis and continues to receive requests from patients seeking access to tradipitant through the Expanded Access program that has multiple patients who have taken tradipitant for more than a year.
Vanda recently held a pre-NDA meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to discuss the planned New Drug Application (NDA) submission for tradipitant in the short-term treatment of nausea in gastroparesis. Vanda is preparing for the submission of the NDA for this indication.
The Phase III study of tradipitant in the treatment of motion sickness is approximately 30% enrolled.
Fanapt® (iloperidone)
Enrollment of the Phase III clinical study of Fanapt® in acute manic episodes in patients with bipolar disorder is close to being fully enrolled. The study is a placebo controlled four-week evaluation of approximately 400 patients at sites in the U.S. and Europe. Results are expected by the end of 2022.
VQW-765
The Phase II clinical study of a single-dose treatment of VQW-765 to alleviate social/performance anxiety is fully enrolled. Results are expected by the end of 2022.
GAAP Financial Results
Net income was $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to net income of $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. Diluted net income per share was $0.05 in the second quarter of 2022 compared to diluted net income per share of $0.17 in the second quarter of 2021.
