Ligand Pharmaceuticals' partner Travere Therapeutics has received FDA approval for FILSPARI (sparsentan) to treat focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) in adult and paediatric patients aged eight and older without nephrotic syndrome. FILSPARI becomes the first and only FDA-approved medicine for FSGS, a rare kidney disorder and leading cause of kidney failure. The approval expands FILSPARI beyond IgA nephropathy, where it is already the most commonly prescribed FDA-approved medicine. Ligand is entitled to a 9% royalty on worldwide net sales. Travere estimates the addressable US population exceeds 30,000 individuals with FSGS without nephrotic syndrome. In the Phase 3 DUPLEX Study, FILSPARI demonstrated a statistically significant 48% reduction in proteinuria compared to 27% for irbesartan in patients without nephrotic syndrome.
