About Travere Therapeutics, Inc.
About Travere Therapeutics, Inc.
FILSPARI (sparsentan) received full FDA approval in September 2024 as the first and only approved oral, once-daily, non-immunosuppressive therapy indicated to slow kidney function decline in adults with primary IgA nephropathy. Travere Therapeutics simultaneously has an sNDA under FDA review for FILSPARI in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, with a PDUFA target action date of April 13, 2026. Revenue is supplemented by milestone payments, including a $17.5 million regulatory milestone from CSL Vifor in May 2025 and a $40.0 million market access milestone in Q4 2025.
Travere earns product revenue primarily from U.S. sales of FILSPARI for IgAN and Thiola (tiopronin) for cystinuria, distributed through third-party distributors as the company has no in-house distribution capabilities. Manufacturing of both commercialized products is contracted exclusively to third-party sole-source suppliers, since Travere has no manufacturing capabilities. Ex-U.S. commercialization of sparsentan is delegated entirely to CSL Vifor — covering Europe, Australia, and New Zealand — and to Chugai, which acquired Renalys in Q4 2025 and assumed Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan rights. Thiola faces generic competition following FDA approval of generic tiopronin tablets in 2021 and 2022, which has pressured revenue from that product line. Pegtibatinase, an investigational enzyme replacement therapy for classical homocystinuria (HCU), is in a pivotal Phase 3 HARMONY Study that restarted enrollment in Q1 2026 after a voluntary pause related to manufacturing scale-up challenges.
Show full overview
The FSGS indication represents the highest-binary-event risk in Travere's portfolio. The Phase 3 DUPLEX Study did not achieve its two-year primary eGFR endpoint with statistical significance over irbesartan; the sNDA submitted in March 2025 relied on proteinuria-based evidence supported by the independent PARASOL workgroup. In January 2026, the FDA extended the review timeline after Travere submitted additional responses — classified as a Major Amendment — pushing the PDUFA date from January 13 to April 13, 2026. A complete response letter from the FDA would delay and potentially extinguish the FSGS expansion opportunity, leaving the company dependent on IgAN revenues and milestone timing from its licensing partners.
