SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Travere Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: TVTX) today reported its third quarter 2025 financial results and provided a corporate update.


“We delivered outstanding commercial performance in the third quarter, reflecting the growing role of FILSPARI as a foundational therapy in IgAN. This success underscores the strength of our commercial execution and the expanding confidence in FILSPARI among physicians and patients,” said Eric Dube, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Travere Therapeutics. “We continue to be pleased with the progress of our sNDA review in FSGS and are actively preparing for a potential FDA approval early next year. We are also making meaningful progress toward restarting the pivotal HARMONY Study of pegtibatinase and have positioned the company to support long-term growth. We are entering the final months of 2025 in a position of strength as we remain focused on execution and on expanding our impact for people living with rare disease.”
Financial Results for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2025
U.S. net product sales for the third quarter of 2025 were $113.2 million, compared to $61.0 million for the same period in 2024. The increase is attributable to growth in sales of FILSPARI. Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $164.9 million, including recognition of a $40.0 million market access milestone from CSL Vifor and $9.3 million of non-cash license revenue associated with the Company’s partnership with Renalys. The $40.0 million market access milestone payment was received in October 2025.
Research and development (R&D) expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $51.9 million, compared to $51.7 million for the same period in 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, R&D expenses were $148.1 million, compared to $155.4 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease is largely attributable to lower costs associated with the development of pegtibatinase and decreased expense related to the development of sparsentan as the PROTECT and DUPLEX trials advance to completion. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, R&D expenses were $47.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $48.4 million for the same period in 2024.
Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $86.5 million, compared to $65.6 million for the same period in 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, SG&A expenses were $235.5 million, compared to $194.6 million for the same period in 2024. The difference is largely attributable to investment in preparations for a potential FSGS launch in January 2026, increased amortization expense related to capitalized FILSPARI royalties, and increased investment in the commercialization of FILSPARI in IgAN following full approval. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, SG&A expenses were $63.5 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $49.7 million for the same period in 2024.
Total other income, net for the third quarter of 2025 was $0.8 million, compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2024. The difference is primarily attributable to lower interest income.
Net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $25.7 million, or $0.29 per basic share, compared to a net loss of $54.8 million, or $0.70 per basic share for the same period in 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net loss was $28.3 million, compared to $261.3 million for the same period in 2024. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, net income for the third quarter of 2025 was $52.8 million, or $0.59 per basic share, compared to a net loss of $35.6 million, or $0.46 per basic share for the same period in 2024.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $254.5 million, reflecting repayment of approximately $68.9 million of principal and accrued interest on its remaining 2025 convertible notes. This total does not include the $40.0 million market access milestone payment from CSL Vifor received in October 2025.
Program Updates
FILSPARI® (sparsentan) – IgAN
- U.S. net product sales totaled $90.9 million in 3Q 2025, representing 155% growth year-over-year.
- 731 new patient start forms (PSFs) were received during the quarter, reflecting continued uptake among new and repeat prescribers.

FILSPARI® (sparsentan) U.S. Indication
FILSPARI (sparsentan) is indicated to slow kidney function decline in adults with primary immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) who are at risk for disease progression.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
BOXED WARNING: HEPATOTOXICITY AND EMBRYO-FETAL TOXICITY
Because of the risk of hepatotoxicity, FILSPARI is available only through a restricted program called the FILSPARI REMS. Under the FILSPARI REMS, prescribers, patients and pharmacies must enroll in the program.
Hepatotoxicity
Some Endothelin Receptor Antagonists (ERAs) have caused elevations of aminotransferases, hepatotoxicity, and liver failure. In clinical studies, elevations in aminotransferases (ALT or AST) of at least 3-times the Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) have been observed in up to 3.5% of FILSPARI-treated patients, including cases confirmed with rechallenge.
Measure transaminases and bilirubin before initiating treatment and then every 3 months during treatment. Interrupt treatment and closely monitor patients who develop aminotransferase elevations more than 3x ULN.
FILSPARI should generally be avoided in patients with elevated aminotransferases (>3x ULN) at baseline because monitoring for hepatotoxicity may be more difficult and these patients may be at increased risk for serious hepatotoxicity.
Embryo-Fetal Toxicity
FILSPARI is contraindicated for use during pregnancy because it may cause fetal harm if used by pregnant patients. Therefore, in patients who can become pregnant, exclude pregnancy prior to initiation of FILSPARI. Advise use of effective contraception before the initiation of treatment, during treatment, and for two weeks after discontinuation of treatment with FILSPARI. When pregnancy is detected, discontinue FILSPARI as soon as possible.
Contraindications
FILSPARI is contraindicated in patients who are pregnant. Do not coadminister FILSPARI with angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), ERAs, or aliskiren.
Warnings and Precautions
- Hepatotoxicity: Elevations in ALT or AST of at least 3-fold ULN have been observed in up to 3.5% of FILSPARI-treated patients, including cases confirmed with rechallenge. While no concurrent elevations in bilirubin >2-times ULN or cases of liver failure were observed in FILSPARI-treated patients in clinical trials, some ERAs have caused elevations of aminotransferases, hepatotoxicity, and liver failure. To reduce the risk of potential serious hepatotoxicity, measure serum aminotransferase levels and total bilirubin prior to initiation of treatment and then every 3 months during treatment.
Advise patients with symptoms suggesting hepatotoxicity (nausea, vomiting, right upper quadrant pain, fatigue, anorexia, jaundice, dark urine, fever, or itching) to immediately stop treatment with FILSPARI and seek medical attention. If aminotransferase levels are abnormal at any time during treatment, interrupt FILSPARI and monitor as recommended.
Consider re-initiation of FILSPARI only when hepatic enzyme levels and bilirubin return to pretreatment values and only in patients who have not experienced clinical symptoms of hepatotoxicity. Avoid initiation of FILSPARI in patients with elevated aminotransferases (>3x ULN) because monitoring hepatotoxicity in these patients may be more difficult and these patients may be at increased risk for serious hepatotoxicity.
- FILSPARI REMS: Due to the risk of hepatotoxicity, FILSPARI is available only through a restricted program called the FILSPARI REMS. Prescribers, patients, and pharmacies must be enrolled in the REMS program and comply with all requirements (www.filsparirems.com).
- Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Based on data from animal reproduction studies, FILSPARI may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant patient and is contraindicated during pregnancy. The available human data for ERAs do not establish the presence or absence of fetal harm related to the use of FILSPARI. Counsel patients who can become pregnant of the potential risk to a fetus. Exclude pregnancy before initiating treatment with FILSPARI. Advise patients who can become pregnant to use effective contraception prior to initiation of treatment, during treatment, and for two weeks after discontinuation of treatment with FILSPARI. When pregnancy is detected, discontinue FILSPARI as soon as possible.
- Hypotension: Hypotension has been observed in patients treated with ARBs and ERAs. There was a greater incidence of hypotension-associated adverse events, some serious, including dizziness, in patients treated with FILSPARI compared to irbesartan. In patients at risk for hypotension, consider eliminating or adjusting other antihypertensive medications and maintaining appropriate volume status. If hypotension develops, despite elimination or reduction of other antihypertensive medications, consider a dose reduction or dose interruption of FILSPARI. A transient hypotensive response is not a contraindication to further dosing of FILSPARI, which can be given once blood pressure has stabilized.
- Acute Kidney Injury: Monitor kidney function periodically. Drugs that inhibit the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) can cause kidney injury. Patients whose kidney function may depend in part on the activity of the RAS (e.g., patients with renal artery stenosis, chronic kidney disease, severe congestive heart failure, or volume depletion) may be at particular risk of developing acute kidney injury on FILSPARI. Consider withholding or discontinuing therapy in patients who develop a clinically significant decrease in kidney function while on FILSPARI.
- Hyperkalemia: Monitor serum potassium periodically and treat appropriately. Patients with advanced kidney disease, taking concomitant potassium-increasing drugs (e.g., potassium supplements, potassium-sparing diuretics), or using potassium-containing salt substitutes are at increased risk for developing hyperkalemia. Dosage reduction or discontinuation of FILSPARI may be required.
- Fluid Retention: Fluid retention may occur with ERAs, and has been observed in clinical studies with FILSPARI. FILSPARI has not been evaluated in patients with heart failure. If clinically significant fluid retention develops, evaluate the patient to determine the cause and the potential need to initiate or modify the dose of diuretic treatment then consider modifying the dose of FILSPARI.
Most common adverse reactions
The most common adverse reactions (≥5%) are hyperkalemia, hypotension (including orthostatic hypotension), peripheral edema, dizziness, anemia, and acute kidney injury.
Drug interactions
- Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS) Inhibitors and ERAs: Do not coadminister FILSPARI with ARBs, ERAs, or aliskiren due to increased risks of hypotension, syncope, hyperkalemia, and changes in renal function (including acute renal failure).
- Strong and Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use of FILSPARI with strong CYP3A inhibitors. If a strong CYP3A inhibitor cannot be avoided, interrupt FILSPARI treatment. When resuming treatment with FILSPARI, consider dose titration. Monitor blood pressure, serum potassium, edema, and kidney function regularly when used concomitantly with moderate CYP3A inhibitors. Concomitant use with a strong CYP3A inhibitor increases sparsentan exposure which may increase the risk of FILSPARI adverse reactions.
- Strong CYP3A Inducers: Avoid concomitant use with a strong CYP3A inducer. Concomitant use with a strong CYP3A inducer decreases sparsentan exposure which may reduce FILSPARI efficacy.
- Antacids and Acid Reducing Agents: Administer FILSPARI 2 hours before or after administration of antacids. Avoid concomitant use of acid reducing agents (histamine H2 receptor antagonist and PPI proton pump inhibitor) with FILSPARI. Sparsentan exhibits pH-dependent solubility. Antacids or acid reducing agents may decrease sparsentan exposure which may reduce FILSPARI efficacy.
- Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents (NSAIDs), Including Selective Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) Inhibitors: Monitor for signs of worsening renal function with concomitant use with NSAIDs (including selective COX-2 inhibitors). In patients with volume depletion (including those on diuretic therapy) or with impaired kidney function, concomitant use of NSAIDs (including selective COX-2 inhibitors) with drugs that antagonize the angiotensin II receptor may result in deterioration of kidney function, including possible kidney failure.
- CYP2B6, 2C9, and 2C19 Substrates: Monitor for efficacy of concurrently administered CYP2B6, 2C9, and 2C19 substrates and consider dosage adjustment in accordance with the Prescribing Information. Sparsentan decreases exposure of these substrates, which may reduce efficacy related to these substrates.
- P-gp and BCRP Substrates: Avoid concomitant use of sensitive substrates of P-gp and BCRP with FILSPARI. Sparsentan may increase exposure of these transporter substrates which may increase the risk of adverse reactions related to these substrates.
- Agents Increasing Serum Potassium: Monitor serum potassium frequently in patients treated with FILSPARI and other agents that increase serum potassium. Concomitant use of FILSPARI with potassium-sparing diuretics, potassium supplements, potassium-containing salt substitutes, or other drugs that raise serum potassium levels may result in hyperkalemia.
Please see the full Prescribing Information, including BOXED WARNING, for additional Important Safety Information.
