Market Opportunity We believe that the total global market opportunity for hypochondroplasia will approach that of the achondroplasia market, driven by growing awareness of the condition due to ongoing clinical trials in the condition. We believe that low-dose infigratinib, if approved, would have meaningful commercial potential as a differentiated oral route of administration preferred by many patients.

Recently, however, it has been shown that scintigraphy with technetium-labeled radiotracers paired with single-photon emission computerized tomography (“SPECT) imaging is a highly accurate, non-invasive, and cost-effective method for ATTR-CM diagnosis. We believe that both increased disease awareness and availability of this non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique allow for earlier diagnosis of ATTR-CM patients and the identification of previously misdiagnosed patients.

We believe acoramidis (Attruby/Beyonttra) will also be an important treatment option for patients inadequately managed by the current treatment. Further, we believe that acoramidis (Attruby/Beyonttra) has the potential to be a best-in-class stabilizer for the treatment of ATTR-CM and that stabilization is likely to remain the preferred mechanism.

Design Criteria Acoramidis (Attruby/Beyonttra) is a commercially available, orally administered, small molecule TTR stabilizer that treats ATTR at its source. We designed acoramidis to meet two primary criteria to preserve circulating native TTR and to reduce amyloid deposition by minimizing toxic TTR monomer formation.

Market Opportunity We believe that the total market for ATTR therapeutic interventions will continue to grow for the foreseeable future as the population of diagnosed patients increases because of heightened disease awareness and the increased adoption of non-invasive diagnostic techniques, and that the potential total global addressable market could reach as high as $20.0 billion.

Clinical trials generally are conducted in three sequential phases, known as Phase 1, Phase 2 and Phase 3, and may overlap. Phase 1 clinical trials generally involve a small number of healthy volunteers or disease-affected patients who are initially exposed to a single dose and then multiple doses of the product candidate.

The number of estimated diagnosed ATTR-CM patients in the United States has grown from fewer than 5,000 in 2019 to more than 50,000 in 2024. As such, we believe that there could be a significant population of either newly diagnosed or undiagnosed patients who have not previously been treated with a disease-modifying therapy and could be treated with acoramidis (Attruby/Beyonttra).

European Union Orphan Designation and Exclusivity In the EU, the European Commission (upon recommendation of the EMA’s Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products) may grant an orphan designation in respect of a product if its sponsor can establish that: (1) the product is intended for the diagnosis, prevention or treatment of a life-threatening or chronically debilitating condition; (2) either (i) such condition affects no more than five in 10,000 persons in the EU when the application is made, or (ii) it is unlikely that the product, without the benefits derived from orphan status, would generate sufficient return in the EU to justify the necessary investment in its development; and (3) there must be no satisfactory method of diagnosis, prevention or treatment of such condition authorized for marketing in the EU, or, if such a method exists, the product would be of significant benefit to those affected by that condition.

With the increasing availability of disease-modifying therapeutics, disease awareness is heightened. 3 We believe the population of diagnosed ATTR-CM patients is also growing rapidly due to the shift to an accurate and reliable non-invasive diagnostic imaging technique. Historically, a heart biopsy was required to make a diagnosis of ATTR-CM.

Biggest changeWe could also encounter delays if an ongoing or planned clinical trial is suspended or terminated by us, by the data safety monitoring board (“DSMB”) including for our ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial of low-dose infigratinib, our ongoing Phase 2 and planned Phase 3 clinical trials of BBP-418, and our ongoing Phase 3 clinical trial of encaleret, or by the FDA or other regulatory authority, or if the IRBs of the institutions in which such trials are being conducted suspend or terminate the participation of their clinical investigators and sites subject to their review.
Biggest changeClinical trial delays could also shorten any periods during which our product candidates have patent protection and may allow our competitors to bring products to market before we do, which could impair our ability to successfully commercialize product candidates and may harm our business and results of operations. 68 Table of Contents We could also encounter delays if an ongoing or planned clinical trial is suspended or terminated by us, by the data safety monitoring board (“DSMB”), or by the FDA or other regulatory authority, or if the IRBs of the institutions in which such trials are being conducted suspend or terminate the participation of their clinical investigators and sites subject to their review.
Sales of Attruby or any other product candidates, if approved, that we may identify will depend substantially, both domestically and abroad, on the extent to which the costs of such drugs will be paid by health maintenance, managed care, pharmacy benefit and similar healthcare management organizations, or reimbursed by government health administration authorities, private health coverage insurers and other third-party payors.

The continuing efforts of the government, insurance companies, managed care organizations and other payors of healthcare services to contain or reduce costs of healthcare and/or impose price controls may adversely affect: the demand for Attruby and Beyonttra and our other product candidates, if approved; our ability to receive or set a price that we believe is fair for our future products; our ability to generate revenue and achieve or maintain profitability; the amount of taxes that we are required to pay; and the availability of capital.

We face significant competition in an environment of rapid technological and scientific change, and there is a possibility that our competitors may achieve regulatory approval or commercial success before us or develop therapies that are safer, more advanced or more effective than ours, which may negatively impact our ability to successfully market or commercialize any product candidates we may develop and ultimately harm our financial condition.

Additionally, the potentially addressable patient population for our product candidates may be limited or may not be amenable to treatment with our products or product candidates, and new patients may become increasingly difficult to identify or gain access to, which would adversely affect our results of operations and our business.
