- Ardelyx reported preliminary and unaudited 2025 total product revenue of approximately $378 million, with IBSRELA revenue at $274 million (73% growth over 2024) and XPHOZAH revenue at $104 million.
- For 2026, the company expects IBSRELA revenue between $410 million and $430 million (at least 50% growth) and XPHOZAH revenue between $110 million and $120 million.
- Ardelyx anticipates IBSRELA revenue to reach $1 billion by 2029.
- As of December 31, 2025, Ardelyx held $265 million in cash, cash equivalents, and investments.
- The company commenced a Phase 3 clinical trial for IBSRELA in chronic idiopathic constipation and received a Notice of Allowance for a patent extending intellectual property protection for IBSRELA and XPHOZAH until December 6, 2041.
- Ardelyx reported a "phenomenal year" for its commercial products, IBSRELA and XPHOZAH, with IBSRELA's guidance increased to $270 million-$275 million (implied FY 2025) and a re-emphasized $1 billion opportunity.
- The company is navigating a "tumultuous period" for XPHOZAH due to the TDAPA period, which ends in 2026, but expects a long-term peak sales potential of $750 million by targeting 60,000 patients.
- Ardelyx is approaching cash flow positivity, excluding stock-based compensation, and ended Q3 with $242 million in cash.
- A new, more potent and soluble NHE3 inhibitor molecule, 531, is in development, with an IND filing expected next year, offering potential lifecycle management for IBSRELA and new indications.
- Ardelyx raised its IBSRELA guidance to $270 million-$275 million for the third quarter and projects a $1 billion opportunity for the drug, driven by strong patient satisfaction and ongoing sales force expansion.
- The company anticipates achieving profitability in 2026, having reported $242 million in cash at the end of Q3 and nearly $1 million in positive cash flow (excluding stock-based compensation).
- Despite current challenges with XPHOZAH due to the TDAPA period ending in 2026, Ardelyx maintains a long-term peak sales guidance of $750 million for the drug.
- Ardelyx announced a new, more potent NHE3 inhibitor, 531, with an Investigational New Drug (IND) filing expected next year, which could serve as lifecycle management for IBSRELA or lead to new indications.
- Ardelyx's XPHOZAH is demonstrating significant real-world effectiveness in lowering serum phosphorus to previously unattainable levels, with patient satisfaction improving as clinicians manage side effect expectations.
- The appeals court hearing regarding Medicare coverage for XPHOZAH is viewed as a "free call option," with a decision expected by tomorrow or sometime next year. Reinstatement would likely involve prior authorization, similar to its initial launch.
- Ardelyx strategically opted out of the TDAPA period for XPHOZAH to protect its non-Medicare market and avoid negative pricing impacts, noting that CMS did not include XPHOZAH for a base rate increase for providers. The TDAPA period for binders is projected to last two years.
- IBSRELA is experiencing increased new prescriptions (NRX) due to salesforce and field access manager restructuring, alongside effective omnichannel marketing. Ardelyx is also advancing its pipeline with 531, a new molecule with IND submission updates anticipated in 2026.
- Management expects 2026 to be a "breakout year" for Ardelyx, driven by IBSRELA's strong performance and XPHOZAH's continued success in a challenging market, aiming to solidify the company's sustainable growth.
- Ardelyx presented real-world study data for XPHOZAH at the American Society of Nephrology’s Kidney Week on November 7, 2025.
- The studies demonstrated that XPHOZAH led to a reduction in serum phosphate in patients with hyperphosphatemia on maintenance dialysis, with nearly half of participants (45.3%) experiencing a ≥1 mg/dL reduction.
- Patient surveys indicated positive experiences with XPHOZAH, with 63% of patients reporting better phosphate levels and improvements in bowel movements and lower pill burden.
- A cost-effectiveness analysis presented by Ardelyx's partner, Kyowa Kirin Co., Ltd., concluded that tenapanor was cost-effective for hemodialysis patients in Japan.
- Ardelyx reported total revenue of $110.3 million for Q3 2025, marking a 12% increase compared to Q3 2024. This was driven by IBSRELA revenue of $78.2 million, a 92% increase year-over-year, and XPHOZAH revenue of $27.4 million, a 9% increase compared to Q2 2025.
- The company raised its full-year guidance for IBSRELA revenue to between $270 million and $275 million.
