Thank you, Nidhi. Good afternoon and thank you for joining us. This has been a tremendous start to the year for Trevere. We've made significant progress across our three strategic priorities. We achieved the first FDA approval in FSGS. We reported a new high in demand for Filspari and IJ nephropathy, and we dosed the first new patient in the Phase III Harmony study of pegtabatinase following restart of enrollment. April 13th marked a pivotal point for the FSGS community and Trevere. Achieving the first full FDA approval for Filspari and FSGS, established it as the first and only approved medicine for this rare and devastating kidney condition. With the potential to help more than 30,000 people living with FSGS without nephrotic syndrome, this approval is a significant indication expansion for Filspari and meaningfully increases the opportunity ahead for us. The first quarter also marked another period of exceptional commercial performance in IJ Nephropathy. We delivered another quarter of record new patient start forms. As we look ahead, we are already building upon our experience gained from the successful launch of Bilspari and IJ Nephropathy and are executing a strong launch in FSGS. Across IGNapropathy and FSGS, we are now estimating that more than 100,000 patients in the U.S. could be eligible for PhilSparry. Together, we believe this represents a $3 billion potential peak sales opportunity for PhilSparry, reinforcing a compelling long-term growth trajectory for the company. We are also advancing our pipeline to support further sustainable growth. We recently dosed the first new patient in our pivotal phase three harmony study evaluating pegdabatinase and classical homocystinuria following the restart of enrollment. Importantly, achieving this milestone puts us on track to deliver top-line results in the second half of 2027. Based on the data we've generated to date, we believe this program has the potential to become the first disease-modifying therapy for the HCU community. We expect there are approximately 7,000 to 10,000 people living with HCU globally who would be addressable for PEG-debatanase. I'm incredibly proud of our team's accomplishments and look forward to accelerating Trevere's growth as we expand our reach and serve more patients across the rare disease community. With that, I'll turn it over to Jula for a medical update. Jula?

Thank you, Eric. I'm very excited to have the first ever approved medicine for the FSGS community now available for patients. As a reminder, Filspari was approved to reduce proteinuria in adults and children eight years and older with FSGS without nephrotic syndrome. I would like to take a moment to highlight how nephrotic syndrome is defined in clinical practice and what it means in the context of which patients may be eligible for Filspari. Nephrotic syndrome is a clinical diagnosis and is typically defined by the presence of all three of the following criteria. High levels of proteinuria greater than 3.5 grams per day, low serum albumin levels of less than 3.0 grams per deciliter, and the presence of edema. If a patient is missing any one of these criteria, they are not considered to have active nephrotic syndrome. This is different than nephrotic range proteinuria, which is typically greater than 3.5 grams per day. For example, a patient with 4 grams of proteinuria, low serum albumin, but no edema will be eligible for Filspari. Importantly, nephrotic syndrome is not a chronic state. If a patient with FSGS presents without nephrotic syndrome, which represents the majority of the FSGS population spanning all types of FSGS, they are immediately available for Filspari. For those who initially present with nephrotic syndrome, Physicians will typically use immunosuppression induction to try to control the patient's proteinuria and stabilize them, after which these patients may also become eligible for Filspari. In addition, based on the data from DuPlex, patients treated with Filspari demonstrated sustained reductions in proteinuria over time, with proteinuria levels reaching approximately 1.5 grams per gram or less on average at study end. At these proteinuria levels, patients would be expected to have a much lower risk of relapsing to nephrotic syndrome. Based on our discussions with key opinion leaders following the approval, there is wide enthusiasm for using Filspari across the types of FSGS, including among secondary and genetic FSGS. This is supported by a recent publication in CJSON demonstrating consistent efficacy and safety in patients with genetic FSGS, a population often considered the most difficult to treat. Physicians consistently highlight the need for effective non-immunosuppressive options for long-term disease management. Now let me talk about IgA nephropathy. We recently published data in CJSON from the PROTECT study showing that patients with IgA nephropathy who achieved complete remission of proteinuria to less than 0.3 grams per gram experienced rates of EGFR decline of less than one milliliter per minute per year. a rate which is similar to healthy aging. The KGGO guidelines recommend a treatment approach for IgA nephropathy that addresses both kidney injury and upstream immune drivers. And include Filspari as a first-line option for patients at risk of progression. The data published this month reinforced Filspari's role as a foundational medicine in IgA nephropathy, demonstrating that Filspari helps more patients reach complete remission, which is associated with improved preservation of kidney function over time. Turning briefly to our pipeline, we are pleased to have reinitiated enrollment in our Phase 3 Harmony study of pegtabatinase, with the first new patient now dosed. HARMONY is a randomized, double-blind study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pegtabatinase compared to placebo, with a primary endpoint focused on reduction in plasma total homocysteine, a key driver of disease in classical HCU. The primary endpoint for HARMONY is assessed at 12 weeks, consistent with the primary endpoint timing from our Phase I-II Compose study. Patients who complete the HARMONY study are eligible to enroll in the Ensemble Extension study. This open-label extension will allow us to evaluate long-term outcomes, including sustained homocysteine control, as well as meaningful aspects for patients, such as the potential for greater dietary flexibility and self-administration. This program is supported by data from our Phase I-II Compose study, where PEG-to-Batnase demonstrated rapid, sustained, and dose-dependent reductions in total homocysteine levels. At the 2.5 mg per kg dose twice a week, PEG-to-Batnase delivered a 67.1% mean relative reduction in total homocysteine from baseline to 12 weeks, as well as maintenance of mean total homocysteine below the clinically meaningful threshold of 100 micromoles, and was generally well-tolerated. Pectobatinase has the potential to become the first disease-modifying therapy for patients living with classical HCU, and as Eric mentioned earlier, we expect top-line data from the Harmony study in the second half of 2027. Finally, we continue to generate and share new data across IG nephropathy, FSGS, and HCU, and we look forward to upcoming medical meetings, including NKF this week and ERA next month, where we will present additional analyses in both IGAN and FSGS. I'll now turn it over to Peter for a commercial update. Peter?

Thank you, Joan. I'm pleased to share that we started the year strongly and set new records with our Phil Spari performance. The first quarter marked the highest demand to date as we received 993 new patient platforms, reflecting continued expansion among new prescribers and deepening utilization across established accounts. Importantly, we continue to see an increasing number of practices treating multiple IGA nephropathy patients with Filspari, with VIVU as a meaningful indicator of physician's confidence with the medicine's foundational and nephroprotective positioning. As new treatment options become available for this indication, Filspari remains the most commonly prescribed medicine approved for IGA nephropathy in the US. This broad utilization supports our confidence in Filspari's continued growth potential in IGAM, and we are seeing strong demand in the start of the second quarter. For the first quarter of 2026, we reported approximately $105 million in Filspari revenue, despite the typical beginning-of-the-year insurance resets and growth-to-net dynamics, as well as recognizing fewer revenue shipping weeks. The strength of our performance in IGAM and the momentum we have with Filspari is directly relevant as we enter the FSGS launch. There is significant overlap in the prescriber base between these two indications, and many nephrologists already have experience with Filspari in their IGAM patients. This will support early adoption in FSGS patients, and we anticipate a faster uptake compared to the initial IGAN ones. In fact, early feedback from the FHGS community has been overwhelmingly positive. We received our first patient start forms already on the first day following approval. And we are encouraged by the enthusiasm and engagement we are experiencing. Having spent time in the field over the past two weeks, I've seen that as enthusiasm firsthand in discussions with nephrologists in their offices, and it reinforces our belief that the FSGS opportunity is expected to be even bigger than IGA nephropathy. Established payer access in IGAM is helping to position Phil Spari for a supportive access environment in FSGS. In fact, we saw our first FSGS reimbursement approvals already in the first week. Payers often manage access at the product and indication level and our team is focused on expanding payer plans and formularies to include phil spari for fsds while education on the fsds indication will be important we are starting from a position of strength with an experienced commercial team and an established infrastructure we believe there are more than 30 000 patients in the us with fsds who are currently eligible for Filspari, and we expect that number to grow. In summary, the start of 2026 reflects exceptional commercial execution with record demand and revenue growth. With our continuing performance in IGA nephropathy and Filspari's recent FFDS approval, I am confident in our ability to continue to delivering strong, sustained growth, and long-term leadership across these rare kidney disease indications. I am incredibly proud of our team and the impact they continue to have on patients and physicians, and I'm excited for what lies ahead for us in 2026. I'll now turn the call over to Chris for the financial update. Chris?

Thank you, Peter. As you've heard from the team, we delivered another strong quarter of execution across the business. And recently, we achieved an important milestone with Filspari's approval on FSGS that further strengthens our outlook for continued growth. In the first quarter, we generated $124.5 million in total U.S. net product sales, reflecting strong year-over-year growth. Importantly, U.S. net product sales at Filspari grew approximately 88% year-over-year to $105.2 million, despite typical beginning-of-year growth the net impacts and fewer revenue recognition days. As Peter noted, for Filspari, we recognize revenue when product is delivered to our specialty pharmacies. This typically occurs a couple of days after shipment from our logistics partner. Due to the quarter end timing and typical early week ordering patterns, the first quarter had one fewer shipping week than usual. As a result, some Filspari shipments made in the first quarter will be recognized in the second quarter. Adjusting for this dynamic and supported by record demand during the first quarter, we believe Filspari is on a strong trajectory in IGA nephropathy for the balance of the year. Elsewhere, Viola and Viola EC contributed $19.3 million in U.S. net product sales during the first quarter, and we recognized $2.7 million in license and collaboration revenue, resulting in $127.2 million in total revenue for the first quarter. Moving to operating expenses, our research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2026 for $57.1 million, compared to $46.9 million for the same period in 2025. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, R&D expenses were $51.5 million compared to $42.2 million for the same period in 2025. The increase is primarily driven by the restart of enrollment in the Phase III Harmony study of pectivatinase during the quarter. Selling general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $80.3 million compared to $60.4 million for the same period in 2025. On a non-GAAP adjusted basis, SG&A expenses were $69.3 million compared to $53.3 million for the same period in 2025. The increase is primarily attributable to investments in preparation for Filspari's launch in FSGS, including an expanded field team, as well as investments in IGA and the property. Beginning in the first quarter, we revised the presentation of our amortization expense associated with royalty and milestone payments to a separate royalty expense line item in order to provide greater transparency to underlying operating expenses. For the quarter, we recognized $24.8 million in royalty expense compared to $12.4 million for the same period in 2025. pot. The increase is primarily a result of the Thiola intangible asset reaching the end of its accounting useful life, resulting in amortization of the full amount of the royalty payments accrued this quarter, as well as an increase in capitalized Fospari royalties. Under accounting policy, Thiola royalties will now be expensed to royalty expense in the same quarter as the corresponding net sales. Contractual milestones in royalty payments related to Fospari will continue to be capitalized to intangible assets and amortized on a straight line basis over its useful life with only amortized expense recognized within royalty expense. Total other income net for the first quarter of 2026 was less than $1 million compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2025. Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $37.1 million or 40 cents per basic share compared to a net loss of $41.2 million or 47 cents per basic share for the same period in 2025. On a non-gap adjusted basis, net income for the first quarter was $4.1 million or 5 cents per basic share compared to a net loss of $16.9 million or $0.19 for basic share for the same period of 2025. As of March 31st, 2026, we had cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and receivables of approximately $352 million. Receivables include the $25 million sales-based milestone payment from Miram Pharmaceuticals that was recognized in the fourth quarter of 2025 and received in April. This is not yet reflected in our cash balance of approximately $264.7 million as of March 31st. Looking ahead, we are well positioned to fund our operations with existing resources. We are investing with discipline across our key priorities, including the commercialization of Filspari and IG Nefropathy and FSGS, ongoing evidence generation, and advancement of the Pivotal Harmony study of pectobatinase in HCU, alongside building further pectobatinase supply. We expect continued strong demand in IG Nefropathy to drive sustained revenue growth, with FSGS further contributing to our top-line trajectory. Overall, we believe our balance sheet, expected top-line expansion, and disciplined approach to investing in our priorities position us to execute with confidence and deliver durable, long-term growth. I'll now turn the call over to Eric for his closing remarks. Eric?

Thank you, Chris. As we look ahead, our priorities are clear. Continue to drive growth by reaching more patients with IJ nephropathy, execute a strong launch in FSGS and enroll our Harmony study of PEG-Dapatinase. With Filspari now approved in IG nephropathy and FSGS and a pipeline progressing into late-stage development, we believe we are well positioned to deliver meaningful value for patients and shareholders over the near and long term. With that, I'll turn the call back over to Nidhi for Q&A. Nidhi?

Thank you, Eric. Operator, we can now open up the line for Q&A.

Thank you. We will now begin the question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your keypad to raise your hand. To withdraw your question, press star one again. We ask that you pick up your handset when asking a question to allow for optimum sound quality. If you are muted locally, please remember to unmute your device. As a reminder, we ask that you limit yourself to one question. If you have another question, please rejoin the queue. Please stand by while we compile the Q&A roster. Your first question comes from the line of Joseph Schwartz with Learink Partners. Joseph, your line is open. Please go ahead.

This is Will Suhikian on for Joe. Thanks for taking our question and congrats on all the progress this quarter. The one for us on FSGS, you guys have messaged several times that the launch is expected to progress at a faster rate than IJ nephropathy. Could you please characterize what you are seeing at this early stage and how it compares to the original IGAN rollout a few years ago? It seems like the full approval here could also make a difference, especially since we know nephrologists are sometimes slower to adopt innovative medicines. Is what you're seeing in these early days supportive of a more rapid FSGS launch? Thanks so much.

Will, thank you so much for the question. And I am very pleased with the early performance and particularly the execution from our field Peter, with that, why don't you give some color to what you are seeing in the early part of the launch?

Absolutely, Eric. And Will, thank you for that question. and indeed we are confident in a faster uptake in fsgs relative to the eigen launch for multiple reasons first of all this is a very high embed need um and this is the fastest progressive uh glomerular disease as well where for eigen we really had to establish the urgency to intervene earlier uh in addition to that we had we built upon a very strong brand awareness and many of physicians already have the experience with spills parry given this is basically the same call point for iga nephropathy and from a payer perspective we already are in most of the formularies and payer plans we have currently over 97 percent uh access a pathway to access for patients so we built upon a very strong foundation and that gives me confidence that we will have a more rapid uptake uh in fsgs relative to our initial eigenlance and we believe it's an even bigger opportunity with FSGS and ITA.

Thank you so much.

Your next question comes from the line of Tyler Van Buren with TD Cowan. Tyler, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Hi, this is Greg on for Tyler. Thanks for taking my question. So, you noted that the first FSGS PFFs arrived the day after approval and reimbursed treatment started within one week. So, how many FSGS PSFs have you recorded this far the launch and what proportion of early starts are coming through payer authorizations versus exceptions or appeals and what are you seeing on initial payer behavior in general thanks all right thanks so much for the question um while it's too early for us to be able to quantify some of that um peter certainly can provide some qualitative and directional uh views on the demand and the payer dynamics peter yeah great i would love to answer that question but this is a q1 call so i'm looking forward to share that with you in the second quarter call but following

my answer of the earlier question on the faster uptake in iga new property i would say everything we are seeing so far is confirming what i have said with regards to a faster uptake than our initial iga property loans that counts both for demand as well as for the early approval rates we are seeing with with payers we're seeing actually a higher first pass approval at the payer level than what we saw initially for iga your next question comes from the line of anupam rama with jp morgan anupam your line is open please go ahead hey guys um thanks so much for

taking the question um i was wondering on the fsgs launch if you could build upon some of your prior comments, which was, I know you mentioned that there's a need to further educate physicians. I know that it's only three weeks post-approval, but I was wondering if you could speak to what's resonating with physicians in terms of the product label and the product profile, and then within that, where do you think the education is required? Thanks so much.

Paul, thanks so much for the questions.

Peter, why don't you take that, and Jule, I know your team has got extensive uh engagements with uh with thought leaders so you can add anything that you might uh uh want to peter yeah happy to take that question and to my earlier point overwhelmingly positive responses from from the physicians but you still have to educate them you still have to read them i was in the field a few days and many of the community nephrologists in particular they may not know yet that phil spari was approved and so that that awareness you have to build uh you have to educate the physicians also on the on the label in particular with like not being in the product syndrome that requires some education once you explain that it resonates with physicians because it's very uh similar to how patients are being treated today it's actually very consistent also to the guidelines, the guidelines, but maybe you can provide some sort of context on that.

Yeah, thanks. Our team, as Eric mentioned, has been out at conferences, advisory boards, seminars, and I would say that the approval is getting resoundingly positive feedback from physicians. This patient community has been waiting a long time, and they're excited to have a non immunosuppressive treatment options to control these patients and get their proteinuria down. You did ask about education. Part of it is a reminder about active nephrotic syndrome is not the same as nephrotic range proteinuria, so we are educating around that. But as Peter mentioned, very positive and excitement to have this option to treat their Thanks so much for taking our question.

Thanks, Anabam.

Your next question comes from the line of Prakar Agrawal with Cantor Fitzgerald. Prakar, your line is open.

Please go ahead. hi uh thank you for taking my questions and congrats on the quarter uh so maybe going back to your comments on faster uptake than eigen uh when i go back to the eigen launch in the first few full quarters you had 400 to 450 uh patient start forms is that how should we think about the uptake for fsgs as well um and secondly on access uh do you expect pairs to cover the secondary fsgs patients broadly as well despite the segment not being tested in phase three are you hearing any pushbacks from the pairs? Thank you so much.

Ricard thanks for the questions. With regard to the uptake we're not going to be providing guidance and we won't be breaking out the PSS by indication as we move forward. I will reinforce what Peter shared that everything that we're seeing so far in the first three weeks of launch have confirmed what we've been saying around a faster uptake, around an eagerness to prescribe, and the payer dynamics really, I think, helping getting patients from PSF onto therapy. With that said, Peter, why don't you take the question around payer access and the different types of MSGS, secondary, et cetera, and any pushback, I think.

Yeah. No, absolutely. And maybe good to start with repeating what I just mentioned, that I'm mostly encouraged by the early approval rates that we are seeing for FSGS that is higher than what we saw initially for IGA nephropathy. Before I specifically answered the question, maybe it's good to provide a little bit of context that payers understand that FSGS is a more rare disease compared to IGA nephropathy with a more progressive nature. This is what we have been educating payers on over the last six seven months and in that context payers are not really focused on like types or subtypes of fsds they understand the common injury pathway and how phil spa is the first approved medicine for this patient population that is rapidly progressing so that's what i would say what we are hearing and seeing so far in the context of uh conversation we have had with payers over the last six, seven months.

Thank you. Thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Vamil Devon with Guggenheim Security. Vamil, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Great. Thanks for taking my question. So I wanted to get back to the topic around the history and the product syndrome. I think as we've spoken to some physicians since the approval, there seems to be some confusion about this and whether they can prescribe dospari in these patients or not. So, I'm just curious if you're going to elaborate there in terms of, do you think, you know, will patients, will payers, physicians focus on, you know, the history of nephronic syndrome, and it sounds like maybe you mentioned there may be some education you still need to work on on that topic. So, maybe just elaborate on that in terms of what you're doing to make sure it's clear, because it certainly sounds like, from your perspective, that that should not be a limiting Thank you, Vommel, for the question.

And we firmly believe that this is not going to be a challenge. It's certainly an opportunity to educate. Jula, why don't you talk about the efforts that you're doing in the reaction from nephrologists. Peter, you can talk about how payers may be thinking about this topic.

Yeah. This has not been an area of focus from physicians, and we've had a fair bit of engagement, and so has Peter's team. So we do not believe that history of nephrotic syndrome should reserve a physician from prescribing Phil Spari. And really the reason for that is because of our labeled indication. It's for patients without active nephrodic syndrome. And this is very much aligned with KDGO. It recommends patients with active nephrodic syndrome be treated with immunosuppression, while those without it receive optimized, supportive foundational care. And that's where Filspari provides the best treatment option for these patients.

And I have to build upon that from a payer perspective. and maybe good to build on what I just mentioned with regards to a more rare disease with a more rapidly progressive disease manifestation. The most important one is to educate payers on that what Julia said, mesmeric syndrome is a dynamic state. It's not like a chronic state and payers understand that. These conversations haven't really come up given what I said earlier. This This is a rapid-progressing disease, and payers understand that as well.

Okay, thank you. Thanks, Pablo.

Your next question comes from the line of Gavin Clark-Gartner with Evercore. Gavin, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Hey, guys. Thanks for taking the question. I actually wanted to pivot over to IJ nephropathy quickly. What are you seeing as a discontinuation rates over time here? Let's say maybe at the one-year mark and the two-year mark since patients start therapy. And how does that actually compare to what you saw in the IgA phase 3?

All right, Peter, why don't you take that question?

Yeah, the compliance and the persistence rates for IgA nephropathy, cross-party and IgA nephropathy have been very high. We haven't given specifics on the numbers, but we haven't seen any change or disruption in those rates as well, which gives me high confidence both on the effect it has for patients that they're being helped with it, but also the physician that they are seeing that this product works for a patient population that historically didn't have a treatment option. You, and maybe you can provide the context what we are seeing versus what we saw in the PROTECT trial.

Yeah, I would say consistent. We saw a fair high persistence of patients staying on treatment during the two-year double-blind trial, and I think it's very aligned with what we're seeing commercially. And part of the reason for that is patients have that positive reinforcement. Their proteinuria goes down, they see it, and they feel like they're getting better. And with very consistent side effect profile to herbicartan. And so patients tend to stay on therapy, and they understand this should be truly a lifelong, as long as they keep their kidneys, they should stay on Filspari.

Great, thanks.

Your next question comes from the line of Mohit Bunsel with Wells Fargo.

Mohit, your line is open. Go ahead. Hi, this is Sadia Rahman on through Mohit. Thanks for taking your question. So the patient start form number this quarter, again, looks very impressive. Can you provide some color on the conversion rate for these forms to patients ultimately starting treatment and any reasons for any drop-offs along the way?

Thanks, Sadia. Peter, why don't you take that?

Yeah, I'm glad that you reflect on the 993 patient thought forms as impressive, because I'm really impressed with my team that is continuing to show growth and hygiene and property in a rapidly changing environment. With regards to conversion, I would say we continue to convert those patients quite rapidly over time. We continue to make improvements, but where we are right now, that is not as dramatic as what you saw in the beginning. but we don't see any drop-offs or changes. And I think with regards to translation patients' thought forms into revenue, that may be part of your question. I think Chris was providing some poll on that with regards to less ordering shipment weeks in Q1, relative to also having the typical growth to net dynamic that you see usually in Q1. So I hope that I answered your question, Tony.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Laura Chico with Wedbush Securities. Laura, your line is open. Please go ahead. Thank you very much for taking the questions.

I apologize if this has been asked already. But one question I had was on IG and property dynamics for Phil Spari. you know, it's great to see the PSF number continuing to increase, and I'm presuming that's predominantly from IgA nephropathy patients. But we also had a competitive update. Novartis indicated the aligned confirmatory study for VIN and RAPIA did not reach statistical significance. And while they will pursue an FDA approval, full approval, I'm just wondering how that changes your views on the competitive landscape dynamics for IgA nephropathy with how are you thinking about pushes and pulls on demand drivers in 26 and then i have a quick follow-up if that's okay okay thanks laura peter why don't you take that and certainly jula add anything further as you see the you know evolution or or or uh consistency of the treatment landscape yeah i'm happy to answer that question i think most important that this is a market in development Most growth in this marketplace is not coming from competitive share, but mainly from continuation of growing the market.

And that's exactly what we see. That's what we were anticipating. I think Fulspari is very well positioned to continue to grow in this marketplace because it's really replacing RAS inhibition. There is no other product that has that ability to do so. Most competition is in the other sector, more immune suppressor agents where the B-cells are now playing together with the complement inhibitors and histo-abuse steroids. What I would say, physicians understand the positioning of Phil Spari well as the foundational nephroprotective treatment option, and understand also Phil Spari's positioning relative to apocenton.

And just one thing, Laura, before you get to your next question, you had asked about the PSF increase, that is all based in Q1. So that would be IG nephropathy before the approval of FSGS. So we do expect to see, you know, an acceleration of the demand over time as we look at both indications. But that very, very solid number of 993 patient start forms in Q1 reflection reflects our performance in an increasingly, you know, landscape of multiple treatment options. So I think it's a really impressive number that Peter's team has been able to deliver. And why don't we go to your next question?

Thanks for the clarification, Eric. Okay. Yeah, just real quick. So we've got a few weeks in April with the FSGS approval. It does seem like a couple PSFs are coming through here. Just out of curiosity, are these originating from existing Salspari IGAM prescribers or versus kind of newly activated FSGS prescribers? And I'm just kind of curious, should we be presuming these are already established prescribers in these early days and these early quarters of launch? Thanks very much.

Laura, thanks so much for the question. It is early. Peter, why don't you comment on what you're seeing thus far?

Yeah, it's indeed early. we see both to be honest and more color to come in the q2 call but i think in this context it's good to talk about the halo effect i've spoken about the halo effect in the past and halo effects from uh the experienced prescribers for iga that now also adopt phil spari for fsgs but vice versa we're starting to hear anecdotes as well from positions that have been on the fence are excited about starting for FSDS and based on that now are also excited to start prescribing in IGA. So I think the halo effect will benefit both indications.

Your next question comes from the line of Maury Raycroft with Jeffries. Maury, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Hi, thanks for taking my question and congrats on the quarter. Maybe following up on Laura's question focusing on PSFs. I'm trying to think about how to estimate that going forward for iGAN. And you talked about Atracenton as a competitor, but Atuka also had a good quarter for PSFs growth in iGAN. And so I'm wondering if you have any perspective in how Atuka is launching their drug? And how are you factoring that into your estimates? And if there's any more perspective you can offer on just switching to biologics and how you're thinking about that in your total estimate for $3 billion in peak sales.

Let me take a couple of those. And Peter, why don't you comment on what you're seeing from a competitive standpoint and switching. The first is that the PSFs moving forward will provide an aggregate. So I recognize more of what you're probably trying to figure out is what in IGAN alone. What I would say is there's no reason to believe we can't continue this level of performance because of the number of patients out there and the very unique positioning that non-immunist suppressive kidney targeted therapies are, which Peter can speak to. With regard to the peak year sales of $3 billion, that really is based on continued growth in both indications. And we've talked about FSGS being a larger opportunity than IG nephropathy. So we fully expect there to be growth in both, but a much faster uptake in FSGS is going to allow us to really reach more of those patients over time and contribute more meaningful to the growth at peak. What I would say is that we really We don't see the dynamics as, you know, taking away from our opportunity or performance. But, Peter, why don't you talk about that in the context of new patients as well as switches?

Yeah, I think the most important one is that we don't see B-cells as a direct competitor for Phil Spari. I think conceptually, the way patients are being treated for IGA nephropathy is how it was done in the past with RAS inhibition. And on top of that, you use steroids when needed. that concept is not changing well for RAS inhibition you have now Phil Sparry as a superior option for those patients and for those patients that are needed additional treatment you have now B cells as potentially replacing steroids the growth in this market is not so much competitive growth it's really like developing the market this is a highly underdeveloped market historically there are still so many patients that are treated with generic RAS inhibitors and generic steroids, you have better options available right now. The KDIWO guideline is reinforcing that. I think you have a more ambitious treatment target nowadays, so that requires often more combination therapy as well. So I think there is space for multiple parts to grow, and I think Phil Spari is very well positioned in that mephrodic, in that nephroprotective foundational treatment category.

Yeah, thank you, Peter. And Maury, maybe if we just take a step back, one of the things that I'd like to reinforce is we talked over the last couple of years around the new entrants coming and really helping to accelerate growth within the IG Nephropathy market that is not going to take away our performance and our outlook. That's exactly what we're seeing with the entrants that have come to the IJ Necropathy Foundation, and I think that the performance that we've posted this quarter really reflects the opportunity that we have, but perhaps more importantly, the opportunity that patients that have been undertreated with off-label therapies have the opportunity to really have innovation moving forward, both with Phil Spari as well as the other therapies. And that's really, I think, going to be the foundation for continued performance of Phil Sparrow.

Got it. That's really helpful. Thank you very much. Thanks, Martin.

Your next question comes from the line of Jason Zemansky with Bank of America. Jason, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Good afternoon. Congrats on the progress and thanks so much for taking our question. And maybe, Jula, one for you. I was curious as to where you get the sense or are seeing Phil Spari's use sequenced in FSGS. Is it in lieu of the ACE ARBs? Are these patients usually already on SGLT2s? We've just gotten some mixed feedback regarding, you know, if this drug is going to be used first line or whether in those, I guess, uncontrolled while already on an ARB or an ACE and an SGLT2. Thanks.

Yeah, thanks for the question. So just like IgA nephropathy, the vast majority of patients are already on some form of a RAS inhibitor, an ACE or an ARB, even by the time they get sent to the nephrologist, so predating their diagnosis. It's slightly lower than IgA nephropathy because kids may or may not always be on an ACE inhibitor, but you're still talking at more than 70, at least 80% of patients are on some form of foundational treatment. And as far as SGLT2 inhibitor, I would say it is used, just potentially not quite as prevalent because we don't have as great of data around SGLT2s. But as Peter has mentioned multiple times, these patients are very high risk for rapid progression to kidney failure. So physicians will be pulling at as many things as they can in their tool belt to try and stabilize these patients, and now they have Filspari, which is better in a head-to-head versus a RAS inhibitor, so they are going to take patients off their RAS inhibitor and initiate Filspari, and ideally at their next clinic visit when they see these patients.

And Jula, maybe I can add something else for Jason's question. Particularly for those patients with primary especially FSGS, and particularly those with active nephrotic syndrome, they are, based on the guidelines, going to be treated with an immunosuppressant, and once they are not in active nephrotic syndrome, they would be eligible and likely placed on Filspari. So in terms of them not being first-line use, it's a slight nuance, but that's also an opportunity moving forward. But, Juleen, please clarify if there's anything further you'd like to add.

No, that's accurate.

Great. Thanks, Jason. Thanks.

Your next question comes from the line of Alex Thompson with Stiefel. Alex, your line is open. Please go ahead.

Awesome. Thanks so much. Just a quick follow-up question on IGAN, and then maybe I'd like to ask about pig to batnace as well. Maybe, Chris, are you able to quantify the shipping week impact at all? That'd be helpful for the quarter. And then for pig to batnace in the phase three, Congrats on restarting that. You know, have you met with sort of the FDA review division recently, and how confident are you that total homelessness team is still going to be an approvable endpoint here?

Thank you. All right, Chris, and then we can turn that over to Bill for the PEGP question.

Yeah, thanks for the question, Alex. We don't typically break down individual weeks of revenue. So what I would point you to as the best proxy is to take the average for the quarter. we had about 12 weeks of revenue recognition within the court, and that will get you to the best proxy there.

And I will take the PEG-T question. We've got breakthrough therapy designation for PEG-T, so that allows us to have a lot of interaction with the FDA. And through that process, we reached alignment on the endpoint for that Harmony study. And it was noted in the prepared remarks, that mirrors the timing of what we saw in the COMPOSED study. So, it was in a collaborative discussion with the agency where we settled on that 12-week endpoint.

Has that happened since the original alignment this year or since you redosed or was that originally the alignment?

That's the original discussion. We haven't had reason to discuss That's the end point of the trial once it was agreed and aligned upon.

Okay, thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes the question and answer session of today's conference call. I'll hand the call back over to Nivy.

Great. Thank you, everyone, for joining today's call. Have a great rest of your day.

Thank you for attending. You may now disconnect.
