Revance Therapeutics, Inc. RVNC, a biotechnology company focused on innovative aesthetic and therapeutic offerings, including its next-generation neuromodulator product, DaxibotulinumtoxinA for Injection (DAXI), today provided a corporate update given the ongoing COVID-19 (coronavirus) situation.

Operations

• The health and safety of the Revance team and their families remains the company's top priority. As a result, the company has curtailed employee travel and implemented a corporate shut down and work from home policy. Management continues to monitor the situation and will resume normal operations once it is prudent to do so. In the meantime, the company has adopted remote working tools to ensure minimal disruption and enable achievement of existing goals and objectives.

Regulatory

• On the regulatory front, the Biologics License Application (BLA) application for DAXI in the treatment of glabellar (frown) lines was accepted in February by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of November 25, 2020. At this time, the FDA has not informed the company of any changes to its PDUFA date and Revance continues to assist the Agency with its review.

Clinical Trials

• Revance has multiple therapeutic clinical trials for DAXI underway, including the ASPEN-1 Phase 3 study and the ASPEN open-label safety study (OLS) in cervical dystonia, the JUNIPER Phase 2 trial in adult upper limb spasticity, and a Phase 2 trial for plantar fasciitis. The ASPEN-1 and plantar fasciitis trials are fully enrolled with all subjects dosed and past the primary endpoint visit; enrollment for ASPEN-OLS is ongoing. Enrollment in the JUNIPER Phase 2 adult upper limb spasticity trial is paused due to challenges in subject assessments during time of required social distancing. Revance plans to report topline results for the ASPEN-1 cervical dystonia and Phase 2 plantar fasciitis trials in 2H of 2020, and will provide additional updates as there is greater clarity.

• Revance has three aesthetic trials underway for DAXI, including Phase 2 open-label studies in forehead lines, crow's feet and upper facial lines. The forehead lines and crow's feet trials are fully enrolled with all subjects dosed and past the primary endpoint visit. The upper facial lines trial is fully enrolled, and all subjects have been dosed. Revance is on-track for 2Q 2020 readouts of the forehead and crow's feet line Phase 2 studies, and will provide an update on the timing of the upper facial lines study results as it gets greater clarity.

• To ensure proper trial coordination and completion, in line with the FDA-issued guidance of March 18, 2020 on the Conduct of Clinical Trials of Medical Products during the COVID-19 Pandemic, Revance is evaluating and implementing risk-based approaches for remote clinical trial monitoring and activities, including remote patient assessment, for those subjects who cannot physically visit clinic sites, to ensure the full completion of trials.

Product Supply

• As Revance is U.S. based and manufactures its drug substance and drug product in Newark, CA, the company does not anticipate any supply chain issues related to the production of DAXI and expects to have drug product on time for commercial launch, subject to product approval.

• Product supply of RHA® dermal fillers has been delayed by distribution partner, Teoxane SA, as they temporarily suspended production in Geneva, Switzerland as a precaution surrounding the COVID-19 situation. Teoxane SA is committed to resuming manufacturing operations as soon as it is prudent to do so and has projected a supply delay of one quarter. As a result, Revance's anticipated product launch of the RHA® 2, 3 and 4 dermal fillers has moved from 2Q to 3Q of 2020.

Commercial Launches

• As of last week, the company completed the hiring of its commercial leadership team to support the launch of three FDA-approved Resilient Hyaluronic Acid® (RHA®) dermal fillers, RHA® 2, 3 and 4, and the anticipated approval and launch of DAXI in 4Q of 2020. The commercial team is currently focused on setting up key operations including commercial processes, systems, sales team training, and customer targeting.

• The hiring timeframe of an approximately 100-person sales force, to initially focus on RHA® dermal fillers, has been adjusted to coincide with product availability. Revance is actively recruiting field representatives using a unique platform technology facilitating remote, live group interviews with potential candidates in the safety of their home. Revance plans to source the best candidates for each geography and will onboard the field representatives in a manner that is consistent with the revised RHA® product launch timeframe.

Financials

• Revance reiterates its 2020 GAAP and non-GAAP operating expense financial guidance of $270-$280 million and $220-$230 million respectively, but notes that with the delay in the RHA® dermal fillers launch and associated hiring of field representatives, actual operating expense results could be at the lower end of these ranges.
• As of February 14, 2020, Revance had $533.3M in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, with 56.9M shares outstanding as of February 13, 2020.

"We are excited to bring the RHA® portfolio of FDA approved dermal filler products to the market as soon as the COVID-19 situation allows and, in the meantime, we continue to put the necessary infrastructure in place to ensure a successful launch," said Mark Foley, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Also, we remain focused on supporting the activities associated with our November PDUFA date for DAXI and are confident in our ability to have adequate supply to support the launch, assuming approval later this year. We look forward to reporting out our cervical dystonia Phase 3 and plantar fasciitis Phase 2 trial results later this year, as the data will help inform our value in the therapeutic market. Lastly, we feel fortunate that we are very well-capitalized during this uncertain time and expect that the loss of revenue associated with the one quarter slip of our filler launch will be offset by lower commercialization expenses allowing us to deliver on our existing 2020 operating expense guidance, with existing cash and equivalents sufficient to fund operations into 2023."
