SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pharmacyclics, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: PCYC) today reported financial results and recent developments for its three months ended March 31, 2013.
Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013
Non-GAAP net loss reported for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $28.3 million, or $0.40 loss per share compared to non-GAAP net loss of $9.3 million, or $0.14 loss per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a description of our non-GAAP measures. Reconciliation between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided at the end of this press release.
As reported on April 11, 2013, the Company earned a $50 million milestone payment obligation under its collaboration and license agreement (the "Agreement") with Janssen Biotech, Inc. and its affiliates ("Janssen") as a result of the enrollment of a fifth patient in a study using ibrutinib (PCI-32765) as a monotherapy versus chlorambucil in elderly patients with newly diagnosed chronic lymphocytic lymphoma/small lymphocytic lymphoma. The $28.3 million non-GAAP net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 did not include the $50 million milestone earned on April 11, 2013. The Company will record the above milestone as revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2013. As such, the Company expects non-GAAP net income/loss to be near break-even for the quarter ending June 30, 2013 and also for the full year ending December 31, 2013. This includes the assumption of costs by Janssen in excess of the $50 million annual cap per calendar year ("Excess Amounts") under the Agreement with Janssen.
The generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $51.9 million, or $0.73 loss per share. This includes stock-based compensation expense of $23.6 million. For the quarter ended March 31, 2012, GAAP net loss was $12.8 million, or $0.19 loss per share. This includes stock-based compensation expense of $3.5 million.
The increase of the stock-based compensation expense to $23.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily related to the timing and accounting of grants for performance-based stock options, share price appreciation and the growth in the Company's employee base. For the remainder of 2013 the Company expects stock-based compensation expense to average $18 million to $22 million per quarter.
GAAP operating expenses were $55.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, compared to $19.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2012. No Excess Amounts were recognized as a reduction to operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
As of March 31, 2013, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $511.2 million, compared with $317.1 million as of December 31, 2012. As previously announced, during the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company sold 2.2 million shares of its common stock in an underwritten public offering for net proceeds of $201.0 million. The net proceeds from the public stock offering were received during the three months ended March 31, 2013.
As previously disclosed in our earnings release for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, the Company expected to end the calendar year 2013 with cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of more than $225 million. With net proceeds of $201 million from the underwritten public offering and additional milestones expected to be earned during the calendar year, the Company now expects to end 2013 with approximately $500 million in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and receivables due from our collaboration partner.
To date, the Company has earned four milestone payments under the Agreement with Janssen of $50 million each, totaling $200 million, including the $50 million milestone earned on April 11, 2013, which the Company expects to collect during the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The Company may earn up to an additional $625 million in development and regulatory milestone payments, however, clinical development entails risks and the Company has no assurance as to whether or when the milestone targets might be achieved.
The Agreement with Janssen includes a cost sharing arrangement for certain development activities. In general, Janssen is responsible for approximately 60% of development costs and the Company is responsible for 40% of development costs. The Agreement with Janssen also provides for a $50 million annual cap of the Company's share of development costs and pre-tax commercialization losses for each calendar year. As of March 31, 2013, the Company's total share of collaboration costs for the 2013 calendar year to date was approximately $24.9 million.
"This past quarter has been particularly successful for our company," said Bob Duggan, CEO and Chairman of the Board. "We completed the enrollment of our first Phase III trial and are well on track with our clinical programs. We also received the third Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the FDA. Last month at the American Association of Clinical Research we had 8 poster presentations and 1 oral presentation. There are 5 additional oral and 6 poster presentations with clinical and pre-clinical updates planned for the upcoming scientific conferences this summer, the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the European Hematology Association and the International Conference on Malignant Lymphoma. Last month we earned a milestone payment of $50 million from our collaboration partner Janssen, for the start of our front line study in CLL and on March 8th we concluded a successful equity offering netting us $201 million. Pharmacyclics remains resolute in its goal to lead in the creation of a new era of patient friendly, body harmonious, medicinal solutions, which are intended to improve the quality of life, increase duration of life and address serious, unmet medical health care needs for patients."

Recent Developments & Highlights
Three Breakthrough Therapy Designations
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted three Breakthrough Therapy Designations for the investigational oral agent ibrutinib. These include ibrutinib used as a monotherapy in patients with R/R MCL, in patients with WM and in patients with CLL who have a deletion of chromosome 17p.
The Breakthrough Therapy Designation is intended to expedite the development and review of a potential new drug for serious or life-threatening diseases where "preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the drug may demonstrate substantial improvement over existing therapies on one or more clinically significant endpoints, such as substantial treatment effects observed early in clinical development." The designation of a drug as a Breakthrough Therapy was enacted as part of the 2012 Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act. Pharmacyclics, together with Janssen, is working with the FDA to determine the implications of this Breakthrough Therapy Designation to the ongoing and planned development and the filing requirements for the use of ibrutinib in patients. At this time Pharmacyclics is targeting to submit the MCL filing before the end of the third quarter 2013. Pharmacyclics anticipates to provide guidance prior to year end on the WM and CLL with deletion 17p filing timelines after further discussions with the FDA.
The FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designations for ibrutinib were based on data from clinical and pre-clinical studies. Ibrutinib has the potential to improve the outcome in these serious and life-threatening diseases which have a poor prognosis. The company and its collaboration partner, Janssen, have designed and are currently executing a development program for ibrutinib in each of these indications.
Comprehensive Pre-Clinical Research and Clinical Development
To broaden our understanding of ibrutinib, Pharmacyclics has performed research into mechanisms of action both in its own research department, and through collaborations with leading universities and clinical centers. Over the past 3 years, Pharmacyclics' research department has established and maintained 47 collaborations with academic investigators at universities or clinical centers. This broad-reaching collaborative effort has resulted in 40 preclinical abstracts presented at scientific congresses, and 15 original peer-reviewed scientific manuscripts in leading scientific journals, plus 17 review articles and commentaries in the literature. Most recently 8 presentations were made at the American Association for Cancer Research in April, where ibrutinib was evaluated preclinically in various disease settings.
Today over 1300 patients have been dosed with ibrutinib in company sponsored trials. Together with our collaboration partner Janssen, Pharmacyclics has engaged upwards of approximately 250 clinical sites, using ibrutinib in CLL, and additionally over 100 clinical sites engaged for the use of ibrutinib in MCL. These numbers are continuously growing as new studies are being initiated within the overall clinical development program. As of today there are over 28 studies registered with the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Five of these studies are Phase III trials, which each enrolling approximately 300-600 patients. Several of the trials in our clinical program are sponsored by the National Cancer Institute or other medical centers. To date ibrutinib is being clinically advanced in over 25 countries, which include the major population regions: U.S., Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.
Phase II / III / IV Clinical Trials Initiated with Ibrutinib Over the Last 12 Months
- A multicenter, open label Expanded Access Program for ibrutinib in R/R MCL patients (MCL4001) is being initiated in the US by Janssen. In the time before a potential U.S. marketing approval, Pharmacyclics and Janssen will strive to provide early access to ibrutinib under an Expanded Access Program (EAP). EAPs are clinical studies allowed under certain circumstances by the FDA. They are designed to provide a mechanism for access to an investigational drug to treat patients with a serious or immediately life-threatening diseases or conditions until the time of an anticipated U.S. marketing approval. Further information about this program can be found on www.clinicaltrials.gov.
- Phase III study of ibrutinib versus ofatumumab in patients with R/R CLL/SLL, RESONATE™. This trial is a randomized, multi-center, open-label Phase III trial of ibrutinib as a monotherapy. The target enrollment of 350 patients was achieved on April 3, 2013 and the study was closed for further enrollment on April 18, 2013 with an additional 41 patients enrolled at that time. The primary endpoint of this study is to demonstrate a clinically significant improvement in progression-free survival when compared to ofatumumab. A pre-defined number of progression events will trigger an interim analysis. A read out from the interim analysis is expected during Q1 of 2014. If the treatment effect of ibrutinib in comparison to ofatumumab is deemed statistically favorable by an independent review committee, a discussion with the FDA and other health authorities for a potential early filing may take place.
- Phase III study of ibrutinib versus chlorambucil in frontline newly diagnosed elderly CLL/SLL patients, RESONATE™-2. This trial is a randomized, multicenter, open-label study of ibrutinib as a monotherapy versus chlorambucil in patients 65 years or older with treatment naïve CLL/SLL. The study design was granted a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA), designed to demonstrate superiority of ibrutinib with the primary endpoint of progression-free survival when compared to chlorambucil. This global study enrolled its first patient at the end of Q1 of 2013. Pharmacyclics plans to enroll 272 patients worldwide and anticipates enrollment for this study to be completed by the end of Q3 of 2014.
- Phase III study of ibrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab in patients with R/R CLL/SLL, HELIOS (CLL3001). This trial is a randomized, multi-center, double blinded, placebo controlled trial of ibrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab in R/R CLL/SLL patients who received at least one line of prior systemic therapy. The primary endpoint of the study is to demonstrate a clinically significant improvement in progression-free survival when compared to bendamustine and rituximab. This global study, conducted by Janssen, is open and Janssen plans to enroll 580 patients worldwide.
- Phase II study, RESONATE™-17, which is a single-arm, open-label, multi-center trial using ibrutinib as a monotherapy in patients who have deletion 17p and who did not respond to or relapsed after at least one prior treatment (a high unmet need population). The primary endpoint of the study is the overall response rate. This global study is open and Pharmacyclics plans to enroll 111 patients worldwide. The Company plans to complete enrollment for this study before year end 2013.
- Phase III study of ibrutinib versus temsirolimus in R/R MCL patients, RAY (MCL3001). This trial is a randomized, multi-center, open-label trial of ibrutinib as a monotherapy versus temsirolimus in R/R MCL patients who received at least one prior rituximab-containing chemotherapy regimen. The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free-survival when compared to temsirolimus. This global study, conducted by Janssen outside the US, is open and Janssen plans to enroll 280 patients.
- Phase III study of ibrutinib in combination with bendamustine and rituximab in patients with newly diagnosed MCL, SHINE (MCL3002). This trial is a randomized, multi-center, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial of ibrutinib plus bendamustine and rituximab versus placebo plus bendamustine and rituximab in patients with newly diagnosed MCL. The primary endpoint of the study is progression-free-survival when compared to bendamustine and rituximab. Janssen plans to enroll 520 patients in this study.
- Phase II study of ibrutinib in patients with R/R MCL who progress after bortezomib therapy, SPARK (MCL2001). This is a single-arm, multi-center trial of ibrutinib as a monotherapy in R/R MCL patients who received at least one prior rituximab-containing chemotherapy regimen and who progressed after bortezomib therapy. The primary endpoint of the study is overall response rate, which is scheduled to be evaluated 6 months from the completion of enrollment. This global study, conducted by Janssen has completed enrollment of the planned 110 patients in April of 2013.
- Phase Ib dose escalating study of ibrutinib in combination with R-CHOP in patients with newly diagnosed CD20 positive B-cell Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (DLBCL, MCL, FL). The purpose of this study is to identify a safe and tolerable dose of ibrutinib in combination with R-CHOP. With a recommended Phase II dose established, the study is currently in the expansion phase in patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL. This global, multi-center study, conducted by Janssen, has been fully accrued. An update on the dose escalating phase of this study will be provided at ASCO, 2013.
- Phase II study of ibrutinib in patients with R/R MM. This is a Phase II, multi-center, open-label trial designed trial to assess the safety and efficacy of ibrutinib single agent and in combination with dexamethasone in patients with R/R MM. This study is conducted by Pharmacyclics and is currently exploring ibrutinib administration at 560 mg in combination with dexamethasone. Two further cohorts are planned to be explored; 840 mg with dexamethasone and 840 mg as a single agent. Pharmacyclics anticipates an update on this program will be provided by year end 2013.
- Phase II study of ibrutinib in patients with R/R follicular lymphoma (FL). This is a multi-center, global study of ibrutinib in patients with chemoimmunotherapy-resistant FL, whose disease has relapsed from at least 2 prior lines of therapy, including at least 1 rituximab combination chemotherapy regimen. The primary endpoint of this study is objective response rate. This global study, conducted by Janssen, was opened in Q1 of 2013 and Janssen plans to enroll 110 patients.

About Ibrutinib
Ibrutinib was designed to specifically target and selectively inhibit an enzyme called Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK). BTK is a key mediator of at least three critical B-cell pro-survival mechanisms occurring in parallel – regulation of apoptosis, cell adhesion, and cell migration and homing.
The effectiveness of ibrutinib alone or in combination with other treatments is being studied in several B-cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and multiple myeloma. To date 5 Phase III trials have been initiated with ibrutinib and a total of 28 trials are currently registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov. Janssen Biotech, Inc. and Pharmacyclics entered a collaboration and license agreement in December 2011 to co-develop and co-commercialize ibrutinib.
