NEWTON, Mass., Feb. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: KPTI), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2024. In addition, Karyopharm highlighted select corporate milestones and provided an overview of its key clinical development programs.
"In 2025, our teams remain focused on the transformative opportunity to redefine the standard of care in myelofibrosis, with top-line data from our Phase 3 SENTRY trial evaluating selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib on-track for the second half of 2025. We look forward to completing enrollment of our SENTRY trial in the first half of this year and leveraging our demonstrated commercialization capabilities in multiple myeloma to support a rapid launch, subject to approval," said Richard Paulson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Karyopharm. "In endometrial cancer, today we announced our updated plans for our Phase 3 trial and intend to primarily focus on the TP53 wild-type pMMR population, which represents approximately 50% of all women with endometrial cancer, and expect to share top-line data in mid-2026."

Based on its current operating plans, Karyopharm expects the following for full year 2025:
2Excluding re-payment of $24.5 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's remaining senior convertible notes due October 2025 (the 2025 Notes) and $25.0 million minimum liquidity covenant under the Company's senior secured term loan due 2028.

Full Year and Fourth Quarter 2024 Financial Results
Total revenue: Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $30.5 million, compared to $33.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $145.2 million, compared to $146.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Net product revenue: Net product revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $29.3 million, compared to $25.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Net product revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $112.8 million, compared to $112.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
License and other revenue: License and other revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $1.3 million, compared to $8.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. License and other revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $32.4 million, compared to $34.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Cost of sales: Cost of sales for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $1.3 million, compared to $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $6.0 million, compared to $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. Cost of sales reflects the costs of XPOVIO units sold and third-party royalties on net product revenue.
R&D expenses: R&D expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were $33.3 million, compared to $39.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. R&D expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $143.2 million, compared to $138.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in both periods was primarily due to increased clinical trial activity, partially offset by a reduction in headcount and contractors.
SG&A expenses: SG&A expenses for the fourth quarter of 2024 were $27.2 million, compared to $30.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. SG&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024 were $115.4 million, compared to $131.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to a reduction in headcount and contractors as well as lower commercial-related activities in connection with cost optimization efforts.
Interest income: Interest income for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $1.5 million, compared to $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $7.4 million compared to $10.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, due to lower investment balances in 2024 as compared to 2023.
Interest expense: Interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $11.2 million, compared to $6.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $37.4 million, compared to $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in both periods was primarily due to the term loan and convertible debt that were issued in 2024.
Gain on extinguishment of debt and other income: Other income for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $10.1 million due to non-cash fair value remeasurements. The Company had immaterial other expense in the fourth quarter of 2023. Gain on extinguishment of debt and other income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $73.1 million primarily due to the recognition of a $44.7 million non-cash gain on extinguishment of debt and $28.7 million non-cash fair value remeasurements, both of which related to the refinancing transactions that were completed in mid-2024. The Company had immaterial other expense for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Net loss: Karyopharm reported a net loss of $30.8 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to a net loss of $41.8 million, or $0.36 per basic and diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023.

XPOVIO is a first-in-class, oral exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor and the first of Karyopharm's Selective Inhibitor of Nuclear Export (SINE) compounds for the treatment of cancer. XPOVIO functions by selectively binding to and inhibiting the nuclear export protein XPO1. XPOVIO is approved in the U.S. and marketed by Karyopharm in multiple oncology indications, including: (i) in combination with VELCADE® (bortezomib) and dexamethasone (XVd) in patients with multiple myeloma after at least one prior therapy; (ii) in combination with dexamethasone in patients with heavily pre-treated multiple myeloma; and (iii) under accelerated approval in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), including DLBCL arising from follicular lymphoma, after at least two lines of systemic therapy. XPOVIO® (also known as NEXPOVIO® in certain countries) has received regulatory approvals in various indications in a growing number of ex-U.S. territories and countries, including but not limited to the European Union, the United Kingdom, Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, South Korea, Singapore, Israel, and Canada.
