FOSTER CITY, Calif. – August 5, 2026 – Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: MIRM), a leading rare disease company, today reported financial results for the second quarter 2026 and provided a business update.
“Mirum delivered another strong quarter, with continued commercial momentum supporting an increase to our full-year net product sales guidance and launch readiness for the upcoming potential approval of zilurgisertib,” said Chris Peetz, Chief Executive Officer of Mirum. “The FDA’s decision to grant volixibat Breakthrough Therapy and Orphan Drug Designations underscores the strength of the VISTAS efficacy data and the serious unmet need in PSC. VISTAS was designed with FDA input as a pivotal study and met its primary endpoint with highly significant results. However, at our recent pre-NDA meeting, the agency recommended conducting a Phase 3 study. We intend to hold further discussions with the FDA before a potential NDA submission in the first half of 2027 based on VISTAS.”

About LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) oral solution and LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) tablets
LIVMARLI® (maralixibat) is an orally administered, ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT) inhibitor approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for two pediatric cholestatic liver diseases. It is approved for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients with Alagille syndrome (ALGS) in the U.S. three months of age and older and in Europe for patients two months of age and older. It is also approved in the U.S. for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus in patients with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) 12 months of age and older and in Europe for the treatment of PFIC in patients three months of age and older. For more information for U.S. residents, please visit LIVMARLI.com.
LIVMARLI has received Breakthrough Therapy designation for ALGS and PFIC type 2 and orphan designation for the treatment of ALGS and PFIC. LIVMARLI is currently being evaluated in the Phase 3 EXPAND study in additional settings of cholestatic pruritus. To learn more about ongoing clinical trials with LIVMARLI, please visit Mirum’s clinical trials section on the company’s website.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Limitation of Use: LIVMARLI is not for use in PFIC type 2 patients who have a severe defect in the bile salt export pump (BSEP) protein.
LIVMARLI can cause side effects, including:
Liver injury. Changes in certain liver tests are common in patients with ALGS and PFIC but can worsen during treatment. These changes may be a sign of liver injury. In PFIC, this can be serious or may lead to liver transplant or death. Your healthcare provider should do blood tests and physical exams before starting and during treatment to check your liver function. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you get any signs or symptoms of liver problems, including nausea or vomiting, skin or the white part of the eye turns yellow, dark or brown urine, pain on the right side of the stomach (abdomen), bloating in your stomach area, loss of appetite or bleeding or bruising more easily than normal.
Stomach and intestinal (gastrointestinal) problems. LIVMARLI can cause stomach and intestinal problems, including diarrhea and stomach pain. Your healthcare provider may advise you to monitor for new or worsening stomach problems including stomach pain, diarrhea, blood in your stool or vomiting. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you have any of these symptoms more often or more severely than normal for you.
A condition called Fat Soluble Vitamin (FSV) Deficiency caused by low levels of certain vitamins (vitamin A, D, E, and K) stored in body fat is common in patients with ALGS and PFIC but may worsen during treatment. Your healthcare



provider should do blood tests before starting and during treatment and may monitor for bone fractures and bleeding which have been reported as common side effects.

US Prescribing Information
About Volixibat
Volixibat is an investigational oral, minimally absorbed agent designed to selectively inhibit the ileal bile acid transporter (IBAT). Volixibat may offer a novel approach in the treatment of adult cholestatic diseases by blocking the recycling of bile acids, through inhibition of IBAT, thereby reducing bile acids systemically and in the liver. Volixibat is currently being evaluated in Phase 2b studies for primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) (VISTAS study) and primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) (VANTAGE study).
In 2026, Mirum shared that the Phase 2b VISTAS study of volixibat in PSC met its primary endpoint, with statistically significant and clinically meaningful reductions in pruritus observed in patients treated with volixibat. Volixibat’s safety profile in the study was generally consistent with the known effects of IBAT inhibition. Volixibat has been granted FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus due to PSC.
In 2024, Mirum announced positive interim results from the Phase 2b VANTAGE study of volixibat in PBC. No new safety signals were observed in the study. Volixibat has been granted FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of cholestatic pruritus due to PBC.
About Brelovitug
Brelovitug is an investigational, highly potent, pan-genotypic, fully human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) that targets the surface antigen (anti-HBsAg) on both the hepatitis delta virus (HDV) and the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Brelovitug is designed to neutralize and remove hepatitis B and hepatitis D virions and deplete HBsAg-containing subviral particles. Brelovitug has FDA Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of chronic HDV infection and PRIME and Orphan designations from the European Medicines Agency.
In 2026, Mirum announced that in the Phase 2b portion of the AZURE-1 study in HDV, treatment with brelovitug demonstrated strong antiviral activity in HDV and achieved the primary composite endpoint of virologic response and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) normalization at Week 24 in both brelovitug dose arms as compared to the delayed treatment arm. Favorable safety and tolerability profiles were observed. Brelovitug is currently being evaluated in the global Phase 3 AZURE clinical program. Mirum owns worldwide rights to brelovitug.
About Zilurgisertib
Zilurgisertib is an investigational, oral, small molecule, activin receptor-like kinase 2 (ALK2) inhibitor in development for the treatment of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP). Zilurgisertib is designed to inhibit the ALK2 receptor, which is abnormally active in most patients with FOP and leads to bone formation in soft tissues, a process known as heterotopic ossification (HO). FOP is an ultra-rare genetic disease that affects approximately 300 patients in the U.S. and 900 worldwide, with diagnosis typically occurring in early childhood. Zilurgisertib was evaluated in the PROGRESS pivotal Phase 2 study, which formed the basis of a new drug application (NDA). The FDA has accepted the NDA for zilurgisertib in FOP under Priority Review with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date of September 26, 2026.
Mirum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. licensed zilurgisertib from Incyte for worldwide development and commercialization.
About MRM-3379
MRM-3379 is an in-licensed investigational oral therapy being evaluated for the treatment of Fragile X syndrome (FXS). It is a selective phosphodiesterase-4D (PDE4D) inhibitor designed to enhance cAMP signaling. MRM-3379 may offer a novel approach to improving cognition, language, and daily function in individuals with FXS. MRM-3379 has been granted FDA Fast Track designation for the treatment of FXS.
The BLOOM Phase 2 clinical study of MRM-3379 is currently underway in FXS. Males ages 16 to 45 will be randomly assigned to receive one of three dose levels of MRM-3379 or placebo for 12 weeks. An open-label cohort of boys ages 13 to 16 will receive the lowest dose, in order to explore effects of treatment in younger boys, closer to the age of diagnosis. The study’s primary endpoint is safety and tolerability, the key secondary endpoint is the NIH Toolbox Crystallized Cognition Composite (CCC), and several exploratory endpoints will assess potential effects on mood, behavior, and other symptoms that are relevant to this population. Mirum owns worldwide rights to MRM-3379.
