Product Sales Performance

  • Total product sales increased 5 percent for the second quarter of 2016 versus the second quarter of 2015. The increase was driven by ENBREL, Prolia, KYPROLIS and XGEVA.
  • ENBREL sales increased 10 percent driven by net selling price, offset partially by the impact of competition.
  • Neulasta® (pegfilgrastim) sales decreased 1 percent driven by lower unit demand, offset partially by net selling price in the United States (U.S.).
  • Aranesp® (darbepoetin alfa) sales increased 5 percent. Unit demand grew due to a shift by some U.S. dialysis customers from EPOGEN® (epoetin alfa) to Aranesp. Unit demand growth was offset partially by unfavorable changes in inventory and net selling price.
  • Prolia sales increased 30 percent driven by higher unit demand.
  • Sensipar/Mimpara® (cinacalcet) sales increased 13 percent driven by net selling price and higher unit demand.
  • XGEVA sales increased 15 percent driven mainly by higher unit demand and, to a lesser extent, net selling price.
  • EPOGEN sales decreased 33 percent driven by the impact of competition and, to a lesser extent, a shift by some U.S. dialysis customers to Aranesp.
