I previously speculated our antimetabolite might be Siklos (hydroxyurea tablets), which loses pediatric exclusivity Dec 2024. I do not know the annual sales of Siklos, so I cannot confirm, just a guess. I think it is worth reiterating that Siklos was approved with priority review, orphan drug status, and pediatric exclusivity, so it costs around $1900 per month. At the same time, the exact same medicine in capsule form costs $20 per month. Until last year, Siklos was officially FDA-approved only for pediatric sickle cell disease, while hydroxyurea capsules have multiple additional indications (see my previous post). One might surmise why it was not a huge commercial success, but that doesn’t mean there is no market. If generic hydroxyurea tablets are cost-competitive with generic capsules, then they will immediately compete in a much larger market as the standard of care medication for both adult and pediatric sickle cell disease. As I said in the previous post, I believe an easy-dispersing, cost-competitive tablet could become the dominant form not just for SCD but also for all the other indications for hydroxyurea as well. I would also mention the U.S. market is a small portion of the world SCD market.
