About Lantheus Holdings, Inc.
About Lantheus Holdings, Inc.
Lantheus Holdings markets PYLARIFY (piflufolastat F-18, FDA-approved May 2021) for prostate PSMA PET imaging, DEFINITY ultrasound contrast with an estimated over 80% share of the U.S. echocardiography ultrasound enhancing agent segment, and Neuraceq for Alzheimer's amyloid PET imaging — acquired via Life Molecular Imaging in July 2025 for $352.9 million. On January 1, 2026, the company sold its SPECT business to SHINE Technologies for up to $155.0 million, sharpening focus on PET radiodiagnostics and microbubbles.
Lantheus earns revenue across three categories: Radiopharmaceutical Oncology (dominated by PYLARIFY), Precision Diagnostics (DEFINITY, Neuraceq), and Strategic Partnerships, which includes royalties, milestones, and CDMO revenue from Evergreen Theragnostics (acquired April 1, 2025 for $276.4 million upfront). PYLARIFY is sold to hospitals, independent imaging centers, and government facilities in the United States through an internal sales team and selected PMF partner sales teams; reimbursement shifted from ASP-plus-six-percent under expired TPT Status (through December 31, 2024) to a mean unit cost basis under the CMS 2026 OPPS Rule — paying at a lower rate than competing PSMA agents from Telix Pharmaceuticals, Novartis, and Blue Earth Diagnostics that retain TPT Status. DEFINITY relies on Jubilant HollisterStier as a substantial supplier and competes with GE Healthcare and Bracco Diagnostics. The company also purchases certain key raw materials from sole suppliers, including the specially designed synthesis boxes for PYLARIFY manufacturing and lipid blend material and perflutren gas for DEFINITY.
Show full overview
PYLARIFY's five-year new chemical entity exclusivity expires May 26, 2026, potentially opening the ANDA pathway to generic challengers under the Hatch-Waxman Act. Lantheus holds six Orange Book-listed patents for PYLARIFY, the last expiring in 2037; a timely Paragraph IV lawsuit could trigger a 30-month FDA stay potentially extending to November 2028. Separately, Lantheus submitted an NDA for a new PYLARIFY formulation with an FDA PDUFA target date of March 6, 2026 — if approved, the company plans to seek three years of renewed TPT Status from CMS, which could partially offset the reimbursement disadvantage versus agents retaining existing TPT Status.
