PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Aug. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Harmony Biosciences Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: HRMY) today reported Q2 2026 net revenue for WAKIX® (pitolisant) of $261.3 million, delivering 30% year-over-year growth in its seventh year on the market. These results underscore continued strong demand for WAKIX, disciplined commercial execution across the franchise and sustained momentum through the first half of 2026. Average patients for the quarter were approximately 8,950, an increase in average patients of 450. WAKIX remains on track to achieve full-year net revenue guidance of $1.0 billion to $1.04 billion.
The Company also announced encouraging single ascending dose (SAD) data from its Phase 1 study of BP-205, demonstrating favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety/tolerability profiles that reinforce Harmony’s conviction in BP-205 as a potential best-in-class orexin-2 receptor (OX2R) agonist. These data support Harmony’s robust orexin development strategy, including initiating Phase 2 studies beginning in mid-2027 to evaluate multiple CNS indications.
“Our record second-quarter revenue reflects sustained demand for WAKIX and keeps us firmly on track to deliver over $1 billion in revenue this year. With this strong foundation, we are aggressively advancing our pipeline, with our orexin-2 agonist BP-205 as the centerpiece, that we believe can create significant long-term value for both patients and shareholders,” said Jeffrey M. Dayno, MD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Harmony Biosciences. “The Phase 1 clinical PK and safety/tolerability data for BP-205 that we shared today, together with pre-clinical data demonstrating the highest potency of any orexin-2 agonist currently in the clinic, reinforce our conviction that BP-205 has the potential to be the best-in-class orexin-2 agonist with broad clinical utility across multiple CNS indications.”
Bruce C. Corser, MD, Medical Director of the Sleep Management Institute, said, “The Phase 1 single ascending dose pharmacokinetic and safety/tolerability data for BP-205 are compelling. The potential for rapid onset of action and once-daily dosing, along with a favorable safety/tolerability profile, exceptional potency and high selectivity, suggests that BP-205 may have potential clinical utility in indications beyond orexin deficiency. I look forward to following the continued clinical development of this program.”
