Alles in den Erwartungen. Es ist noch eine Milliarde CHF Cash da, die Projekte entwickeln sich angeblich plangemäss. Die Aktie zeigt keine sonderlichen Regungen.
André C. Muller, Chief Financial Officer, commented: In the first six months of 2019, we fully focused on recruiting patients for our late-stage clinical trials, the main cost driver this year, and shaping our commercial strategy. As expenses are in line with expectations, the financial guidance for 2019 remains unchanged. Excluding unforeseen events and potential milestone payments, we expect non-GAAP operating expenses for 2019 to be around CHF 530 million.
Guy Braunstein, MD and Head of Global Clinical Development, commented: "I'm very pleased that the global Phase 3 program with daridorexant is on track to report 3-month efficacy results in the first half of 2020 and long-term efficacy and safety results later in the same year. If the results observed in the Phase 2 program and presented at SLEEP 2019 are confirmed, daridorexant is very likely to be one of our first assets submitted to health authorities. We also expect top line results of our Phase 3 study with lucerastat and from the clazosentan program in Japan thereafter in 2020." |
