Atabak Mokari: Please refer to those documents for more information. We disclaim any intention or duty to update forward-looking statements. Our revenue in the Q2 2026 was $256.1 million, a 32% increase over the prior year period. Korlym and authorized generic product revenue was $208.6 million. Lifyorli product revenue was $47.6 million in its Q1 of availability. We expect growth to continue and have increased our 2026 revenue guidance to a range of $1.1 to $1.2 billion. Net income was $43 million in the Q2 2026, compared to net income of $35 million in the prior year period. Please note that our operating expenses in the Q2 were flat to the Q1 2026. Our cash and investments at June 30 were $545 million. I will now turn the call over to Sean Maduck, President of our endocrinology division. Sean?

Speaker #2: At 32% increase over the prior year period. Coralem and authorized generic product revenue was $208.6 million. The purely product revenue was $47.6 million, and its first quarter of availability.

Speaker #2: We expect growth to continue and have increased our 2026 revenue guidance to a range of $1.1 to $1.2 billion. Net income was $43 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to net income of $35 million in the prior-year period.

Atabak Mokari: Net income was $43 million in the Q2 2026, compared to net income of $35 million in the prior year period. Please note that our operating expenses in the Q2 were flat to the Q1 2026. Our cash and investments at June 30 were $545 million. I will now turn the call over to Sean Maduck, President of our endocrinology division. Sean?

Speaker #2: Please note that our operating expenses in the second quarter were flat to the first quarter of 2026. Our cash and investments at June 30 were $545 million.

Speaker #2: I will now turn the call over to Sean Maduck, president of our endocrinology division. Sean?

Speaker #3: Thanks, Atabak. Our Cushing Center business continues to experience strong demand. The second quarter saw a record number of new prescriptions and first-time prescribers. We have never had more patients receiving our medications, or more active prescribers.

Sean Maduck: Thanks, Atabak Mokari. Our Cushing's syndrome business continues to experience strong demand. The Q2 saw a record number of new prescriptions and first-time prescribers. We have never had more patients receiving our medications or more active prescribers. Our growth is due to physicians' increasing awareness that hypercortisolism is a serious disease that is more prevalent than previously understood. Hypercortisolism is underdiagnosed because its signs and symptoms, such as difficult-to-treat diabetes or resistant hypertension, are the same as those of other more common conditions. Tens of millions of people have diabetes or hypertension or both, but those patients whose conditions are being driven by hypercortisolism have often been missed. That is especially important because hypercortisolism-induced hyperglycemia or hypertension responds poorly, if at all, to conventional pharmacotherapy. A drug that reduces excess cortisol activity is required to treat these patients.

Speaker #3: Our growth is due to physicians' increasing awareness that hypercortisolism is a serious disease that is more prevalent than previously understood. Hypercortisolism is under-diagnosed because its signs and symptoms, such as difficult-to-treat diabetes or resistant hypertension, are the same as those of other, more common conditions.

Sean Maduck: Hypercortisolism is underdiagnosed because its signs and symptoms, such as difficult-to-treat diabetes or resistant hypertension, are the same as those of other more common conditions. Tens of millions of people have diabetes or hypertension or both, but those patients whose conditions are being driven by hypercortisolism have often been missed.

Speaker #3: That is especially important because hypercortisolism-induced hyperglycemia or hypertension responds poorly, if at all, to conventional pharmacotherapy. A drug that reduces excess cortisol activity is required to treat these patients.

Speaker #3: As clinical practice adapts to this critical insight, screening for and treatment of Cushing syndrome will continue to increase, as will the number of patients receiving our medications.

Sean Maduck: As clinical practice adapts to this critical insight, screening for and treatment of Cushing's syndrome will continue to increase, as will the number of patients receiving our medications. Our landmark CATALYST and MOMENTUM trials are driving increased physician awareness of hypercortisolism. CATALYST showed that 24% of patients with difficult-to-treat diabetes had hypercortisolism, and that treatment with Korlym led to substantial reductions in hemoglobin A1C, excess body weight, and waist circumference. MOMENTUM screened more than 1,000 patients with high blood pressure that was not controlled despite concurrent use of three or more antihypertension medications, a condition known as resistant hypertension, and found that 27% of these patients had hypercortisolism. Patients with both resistant diabetes and resistant hypertension, the prevalence of hypercortisolism was even higher, 39.7% in CATALYST and 32.6% in MOMENTUM. These paradigm-shifting findings will take time to be fully incorporated into medical practice, a process that is only just beginning.

Speaker #3: Our landmark CATALYST and MOMENTUM trials are driving increased physician awareness of hypercortisolism. CATALYST showed that 24% of patients with difficult-to-treat diabetes had hypercortisolism, and that treatment with Corlem led to substantial reductions in hemoglobin A1C, excess body weight, and waist circumference.

Speaker #3: Momentum screened more than 1,000 patients with high blood pressure that was not controlled despite concurrent use of three or more antihypertension medications, a condition known as resistant hypertension, and found that 27% of these patients had hypercortisolism.

Sean Maduck: MOMENTUM screened more than 1,000 patients with high blood pressure that was not controlled despite concurrent use of three or more antihypertension medications, a condition known as resistant hypertension, and found that 27% of these patients had hypercortisolism.

These paradigm-shifting findings will take time to be fully incorporated into medical practice, a process that is only just beginning.

Speaker #3: Patients with both resistant diabetes and resistant hypertension—the prevalence of hypercortisolism was even higher. 39.7% in catalysts and 32.6% in time to be fully incorporated into medical practice.

Speaker #3: A process that is only just beginning. Catalyst results were published in the field's leading journal, Diabetes Care, in 2025 and were referenced in the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology, or ACE, guidance documents for the management of diabetes in March of this year.

Sean Maduck: CATALYST results were published in the field's leading journal, "Diabetes Care," in 2025 and were referenced in the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology, or AACE, guidance documents for the management of diabetes in March of this year. MOMENTUM's results are also recent. We first presented them at the annual conference of the American College of Cardiology, or ACC, in March, and again at the American Diabetes Association, or ADA, annual scientific sessions in June. The results will be published in a major medical journal later this year. That being said, the CATALYST and MOMENTUM results are becoming more widely known, and doctors are acting upon them. Screening for and treatment of Cushing's syndrome is increasing, and with it, the number of patients being treated with our medications.

Screening for and treatment of Cushing's syndrome is increasing, and with it, the number of patients being treated with our medications.

Speaker #3: Screening for and treatment of Cushing syndrome is increasing, and with it, the number of patients being treated with our medications. We expect this trend to continue, propelling our current Cushing syndrome business to at least $2 billion in annual revenue by the end of this decade.

Sean Maduck: We expect this trend to continue, propelling our current Cushing's syndrome business to at least $2 billion in annual revenue by the end of this decade. Relacorilant's availability, which should occur shortly after the 17 December PDUFA date assigned to its resubmission, will accelerate this growth. With the addition of relacorilant, we expect that our Cushing's syndrome annual revenue will grow to between $3 and 5 billion in 2020. I'll now turn the call over to Roberto Vieira, President of our oncology division. Roberto?

Speaker #3: Royal Coralem's availability, which should occur shortly after the December 17th PDUFA date assigned to its resubmission, will accelerate this growth. With the addition of Royal Coralem, we expect that our Cushing syndrome annual revenue will grow to between $3 billion and $5 billion in 2020.

Speaker #3: I will now turn the call over to Roberto Vieira, president of our oncology division. Roberto?

Speaker #4: Thanks, Sean. If you always launch is one of the strongest ever for an oncology medication. The FDA-approved lithium on March 25th needed four months ahead of its PDUPA date.

Roberto Vieira: Thanks, Sean. Lifyorli's launch is one of the strongest ever for an oncology medication. The FDA approved Lifyorli on 25 March, nearly four months ahead of its PDUFA date. A few days after that, on 1 April, we sold our first Lifyorli capsules. Revenue for Q1 was $47.6 million. Our success has been driven in large part by Lifyorli's compelling clinical characteristics. Patients with ovarian cancer have few good treatment options. This is especially true for those with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. They and their physicians are excited to have a new treatment backed by strong efficacy data, a very manageable safety profile, convenient oral administration, and no biomarker requirement. Accordingly, Lifyorli is on its way to becoming a new standard of care. Payer coverage for Lifyorli has been excellent.

Speaker #4: Accordingly, lithium is on its way to becoming a new standard of care. Payer coverage for lithium has been excellent. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network, or NCCN, guidelines listed lithium as a preferred regimen just 15 days after approval—an unusually quick action that has supported broad insurance coverage and accelerated physician adoption.

Roberto Vieira: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network, or NCCN, guidelines listed Lifyorli as a preferred regimen just 15 days after approval, an unusually quick action that has supported broad insurance coverage and accelerated physician adoption. As of today, more than 70% of the combined Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial lives have formal coverage policies for Lifyorli in place. More than 1,300 patients have now started treatment with Lifyorli, a number that continues to grow every day. Demand has come from gynecology, medical, and hematology oncologists in academic and non-teaching hospitals, as well as community oncology clinics across the country. As of today, more than 1,000 doctors have prescribed Lifyorli to at least one patient, and an increasing number of physicians have written prescriptions for multiple patients. While we are extremely pleased with Lifyorli's rapid uptake, we are just getting started.

As of today, more than 1,000 doctors have prescribed lithium to at least one patient in an increasing number of physicians have written prescriptions for multiple patients.

Speaker #4: While we are extremely pleased with lithium's rapid uptake, we are just getting started. Anita, we expect to reach more physicians at more oncology practices large and small.

Roberto Vieira: In the near term, we expect to reach more physicians at more oncology practices, large and small. We also expect physicians to prescribe Lifyorli more frequently as they gain experience with the drug. Those efforts alone should grow Lifyorli's annual revenue in the United States to more than $1 billion. I will now turn the call over to Joe Belanoff, our Chief Executive Officer. Joe?

Speaker #4: We also expect physicians to prescribe lithium more frequently as they gain experience with the drug. Those efforts alone should grow lithium's annual revenue in the United States to more than $1 billion.

Atabak Mokari: Okay. We're back.

Speaker #1: You may proceed.

Operator: You may proceed.

Operator: I apologize. Yeah. I apologize to everyone. We had a drop in the telephone line, but I will start my section again. Thank you, Roberto, for your oncology update. Thank you, everyone, for joining us. Since our founding, Corcept has worked to discover and develop molecules that harness glucocorticoid receptor, GR antagonist, to treat serious diseases. We have made important progress. It is now established that hypercortisolism is much more prevalent than previously believed, and that modulating cortisol's activity can help many patients. Lifyorli's unprecedented uptake as a treatment for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer is eye-catching, and is an important step to proving that GR antagonism can help treat many types of solid tumors. Our plans go well beyond Cushing's syndrome and oncology.

Joe Belanoff: I apologize. Yeah. I apologize to everyone. We had a drop in the telephone line, but I will start my section again. Thank you, Roberto, for your oncology update.

Speaker #5: Lithium's unprecedented uptake as a treatment for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer is eye-catching, and it's an important step to proving that GR antagonism can help treat many types of solid tumors.

Speaker #5: And our plans go well beyond Cushing's syndrome and oncology. Royal Coralem's new drug application, NDA, in Cushing's syndrome is based on the positive outcome of our pivotal phase three GRACE trial, with confirmatory evidence from our double-blind placebo-controlled phase three gradient trial, our long-term extension study, and our earlier stage development data.

Joseph K. Belanoff: relacorilant's new drug application, NDA, in Cushing's syndrome is based on the positive outcome of our pivotal phase III GRACE trial, with confirmatory evidence from our double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III GRADIENT trial, our long-term extension study, and our earlier stage development data. Collectively, these results show that patients treated with relacorilant experience meaningful, durable improvements in the signs and symptoms of Cushing's syndrome. Without the serious adverse events associated with the currently approved medications, hypokalemia, endometrial hypertrophy, vaginal bleeding, adrenal insufficiency, or QT prolongation. To say that we were disappointed when we received a complete response letter at the end of last year is an understatement. At our meeting with the FDA in April, the agency requested additional analyses of the data in our original NDA submission. We completed those analyses, and based on their results, we resubmitted our NDA on 17 June.

Speaker #5: We completed those analyses, and based on their results, we resubmitted our NDA on June 17th. The FDA accepted our resubmission, and has assigned it a PDUPA date of December 17th, 2026.

Joseph K. Belanoff: The FDA accepted our resubmission and has assigned it a PDUFA date of 17 December 2026. It is important to make relacorilant available as soon as possible. As Sean said, the CATALYST and MOMENTUM studies are changing medicine. As screening for hypercortisolism becomes the norm rather than the exception in patients with resistant diabetes and hypertension, many patients whose health has been damaged by previously undiagnosed hypercortisolism will be able to receive more effective targeted care. Better treatments are greatly needed. The approval of Lifyorli was enormously gratifying. It is wonderful to be able to offer patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, one of the most challenging forms of cancer, a safe and effective treatment option.

It is wonderful to be able to offer patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, one of the most challenging forms of cancer, a safe and effective treatment option. We presented complete results from Lifyorli's pivotal trial, ROSELA, in April at the Society of Gynecologic Oncology, SGO's annual meeting, with their simultaneous publication in The Lancet. In ROSELA, Lifyorli met both primary endpoints, significantly delaying disease progression and, even more important, significantly extending overall survival.

Joseph K. Belanoff: We presented complete results from Lifyorli's pivotal trial, ROSELA, in April at the Society of Gynecologic Oncology, SGO's annual meeting, with their simultaneous publication in The Lancet. In ROSELA, Lifyorli met both primary endpoints, significantly delaying disease progression and, even more important, significantly extending overall survival. Patients treated with Lifyorli and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy experienced a 35% reduction in their risk of death, a hazard ratio of 0.65, compared to patients treated with nab-paclitaxel alone. The P value was 0.0004. Notably, these survival benefits were achieved in all patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, not just those selected based on a specific biomarker. Lifyorli's approval is just the first step toward advancing GR antagonism's full potential to treat solid tumors. Many tumors exploit GR signaling to drive treatment resistance. Beyond platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, GR antagonist has the potential to treat any solid tumor expressing the GR in combination with any anticancer agent.

Speaker #5: In ROSELA, lithium met both primary endpoints, significantly delaying disease progression and even more important, significantly extending overall survival. Patients treated with lithium and napaclitaxel chemotherapy experienced a 35% reduction in their risk of death, a hazard ratio of 0.65 compared to patients treated with napaclitaxel alone.

Joe Belanoff: Patients treated with Lifyorli and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy experienced a 35% reduction in their risk of death, a hazard ratio of 0.65, compared to patients treated with nab-paclitaxel alone.

Joe Belanoff: Many tumors exploit GR signaling to drive treatment resistance. Beyond platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, GR antagonist has the potential to treat any solid tumor expressing the GR in combination with any anticancer agent. Our oncology development program aims to provide the evidence needed to realize that potential. We are evaluating relacorilant combined with chemotherapy in a variety of solid tumors. One of the arms of our BELLA trial is studying the effect of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel and bevacizumab in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

We are evaluating relacorilant combined with chemotherapy in a variety of solid tumors. One of the arms of our BELLA trial is studying the effect of relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel and bevacizumab in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. This arm will produce results this year. Our BELLA trial has two other arms, one which is studying the treatment of patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer and earlier stage of the disease, and one which is studying endometrial cancer. Our STELLA trial in cervical cancer and our TRIDENT trial as a first-line treatment for pancreatic cancer are also underway. These trials will all produce results by the end of next year. We expect data from these studies to be NCCN guideline-enabling and to inform our future development decisions.

Speaker #5: We expect data from these studies to be NCCN guideline-enabling and to inform our future development decisions. Successful results would immediately increase the number of patients that Relacorilant may help by fivefold.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Successful results would immediately increase the number of patients that relacorilant may help by fivefold. Also, very important, GR antagonism may augment the effects of immunotherapy. Cortisol suppresses the immune system, blunting the effectiveness of therapies that stimulated an immune response. A treatment regimen combining an immunotherapy agent with a GR antagonist may stimulate a stronger, more effective immune response. We have initiated SYNERGY, a phase I-B study of our proprietary selective GR antagonist, nenicorilant, in combination with nivolumab, a PD-1-directed immunotherapy across a broad range of solid tumors. We expect results from SYNERGY by the end of next year. Finally, cortisol activity at the GR stimulates the growth of prostate cancer tumors, helping them escape the effects of androgen deprivation therapy.

Speaker #5: Our collaborators at the University of Chicago are enrolling a randomized, placebo-controlled phase 2 trial of relacorilant plus the androgen receptor blocker enzalutamide in patients with early-stage prostate cancer.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Our collaborators at the University of Chicago are enrolling a randomized, placebo-controlled phase II trial of relacorilant plus the androgen receptor blocker enzalutamide in patients with early-stage prostate cancer to see if adding a GR antagonist can block cortisol-mediated tumor escape routes. Cortisol activity is involved in the development and progression of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, or MASH. This serious liver disorder afflicts millions of patients worldwide and is a significant and rapidly growing cause of liver and cardiometabolic morbidity and mortality. Our proprietary selective cortisol modulator, miricorilant, is very potent in the liver. In our phase I-B study, it rapidly reduced liver fat and improved other elements of important markers of liver health, including fibrosis. Miricorilant was well-tolerated without the gastrointestinal side effects commonly seen in patients being treated for MASH. Our 175-patient, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II-B MONARCH study has completed enrollment and will produce data later this year.

Joe Belanoff: Our collaborators at the University of Chicago are enrolling a randomized, placebo-controlled phase II trial of relacorilant plus the androgen receptor blocker enzalutamide in patients with early-stage prostate cancer to see if adding a GR antagonist can block cortisol-mediated tumor escape routes.

Speaker #5: Our 175-patient, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 B MONARCH study has completed enrollment and will produce data later this year. Positive results would support advancement to Phase 3.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Positive results would support advancement to phase III. Patients with ALS frequently have elevated cortisol levels, which is why we believe cortisol modulation may help them. Results from DAZZLE, the phase II trial of our proprietary selective cortisol modulator dazucorilant, have been very encouraging. Patients who received 300 milligrams of dazucorilant exhibited an 84% reduction in risk of death at the one-year mark compared to patients who received placebo. The P value for this finding was 0.0009. This survival benefit persisted into the study's second year with an 87% reduction in risk of death with a P value of less than 0.0001. There's a common misperception that death from ALS is always coterminous with severe functional decline. It isn't. Many patients die from complications such as pneumonia or cardiovascular events arising well before they have lost significant function and quality of life.

Speaker #5: Patients with ALS frequently have elevated cortisol levels, which is why we believe cortisol modulation may help them. Results from DASLS, the Phase 2 trial of our proprietary selective cortisol modulator, DASAcoralem, have been very encouraging.

Speaker #5: Patients who receive 300 milligrams of DASAcoralem exhibited an 84% reduction in risk of death at the one-year mark placebo. The p-value for this finding was 0.0009.

Joe Belanoff: The P value for this finding was 0.0009. This survival benefit persisted into the study's second year with an 87% reduction in risk of death with a P value of less than 0.0001. There's a common misperception that death from ALS is always coterminous with severe functional decline. It isn't.

Speaker #5: This survival benefit persisted into the study's second year. With an 87% reduction in risk of death with a p-value of less than 0.0001. There is a common misperception that death from ALS is always co-terminus with severe functional decline.

Speaker #5: It isn't. Many patients die from complications such as pneumonia or cardiovascular events arising well before they have lost significant function and quality of life.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Cortisol modulation could prevent such complications or help patients to survive them. It would provide a significant benefit. We are currently conducting a study to see if dose titration can improve dazucorilant's gastrointestinal tolerability. Nonserious GI distress caused most of the discontinuations in DAZZLE. The findings from this study will inform the design of the pivotal trial that we plan to start early next year. To sum up, our Cushing's syndrome business is growing and is poised for accelerated growth, driven by increasing awareness of hypercortisolism's true prevalence and the increasing evidence of the importance of treating it. Our landmark CATALYST and MOMENTUM studies are leading to much wider screening for and treatment of Cushing's syndrome. Approval of relacorilant would lead to even faster growth. The launch of Lifyorli in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer is off to a very strong start. We believe that GR antagonism has broad utility in oncology.

Speaker #5: The launch of Lufthali in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer is off to a very strong start. We believe that GR antagonism has broad utility in oncology.

Speaker #5: We look forward to helping many more patients with cancer in the near future. Our BELLA, STELLA, and TRIDENT studies will produce results by the end of next year.

Joseph K. Belanoff: We look forward to helping many more patients with cancer in the near future. Our BELLA, STELLA, and TRIDENT studies will produce results by the end of next year and have the potential to increase the number of patients Lifyorli could benefit by a factor of five. We are also evaluating the treatment of other solid tumors and other treatment combinations to fully realize our potential in oncology. Following up on our positive phase II DAZZLE's findings, we are conducting a dose titration study to inform the design of our planned phase III trial in patients with ALS. By year-end, we will have results from our phase II MONARCH trial in patients with MASH. If those results are sufficiently positive, we will proceed to phase III. The potential of cortisol modulation is immense. Developing that potential into safe and effective medications is important work.

Joseph K. Belanoff: We thank the patients who participate in our trials, our employees, our clinical investigators, and our academic collaborators who make it possible. Operator, let's proceed to questions.

Speaker #5: Operator, let's proceed to questions.

Speaker #1: Certainly. And as a reminder, ladies and gentlemen, if you do have a question at this time, please press star 11 on your telephone. Our first question comes from the line of David Anselm from Piper Sandler.

Operator: Certainly. As a reminder, ladies and gentlemen, if you do have a question at this time, please press * one one on your telephone. Our first question comes from the line of David Amsellem from Piper Sandler. Your question, please.

Speaker #1: Your question, please.

Speaker #3: Thanks. So just a few for me first on the patient-level metrics on Lufthali. Can you talk to the number of patients on treatment currently or at the end of two Q?

David Amsellem: Thanks. Just a few from me. First, on the patient-level metrics on Lifyorli, can you talk to the number of patients on treatment currently or at the end of Q2? When you talk about accelerating demand, I just want to get a sense of what exactly that means. Does that mean you're adding the pace of patient adds? It continued to increase through June and into July. That kind of color would be helpful. Then secondly, on the upward revisions of the guidance, is it fair to say that most of that is related to the launch of Lifyorli? If so, can you talk to the dynamics you're seeing surrounding Korlym? Are there any additional bottlenecks or lingering bottlenecks, I should say, regarding the specialty pharmacy and what kinds of assumptions are now embedded in Korlym with this upward revision to your guide? Thank you.

Speaker #3: And when you talk about accelerating demand, I just want to get a sense of what exactly that means. Does that mean you're saying the pace of patient adds continued to increase through June and into July?

Speaker #3: That kind of color would be helpful. And then secondly, on the upward revisions of the guidance, is it fair to say that most of that is related to the launch of Lufthali?

David Amsellem: Then secondly, on the upward revisions of the guidance, is it fair to say that most of that is related to the launch of Lifyorli? If so, can you talk to the dynamics you're seeing surrounding Korlym? Are there any additional bottlenecks or lingering bottlenecks, I should say, regarding the specialty pharmacy and what kinds of assumptions are now embedded in Korlym with this upward revision to your guide?

Speaker #3: And if so, can you talk to the dynamics you're seeing surrounding Corlem? Are there any additional bottlenecks, or lingering bottlenecks I should say, regarding the specialty pharmacy, and what kinds of assumptions are now embedded in the Corlem with this upward revision to your guide?

Speaker #3: Thank you.

Speaker #2: Okay. Thank you, David. And several questions I'll try to sort them out. First question, I think we'll go to Roberto our president of oncology.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Okay. Thank you, David. Several questions. I'll try to sort them out. First question, I think will go to Roberto, our President of Oncology.

Joe Belanoff: Okay. Thank you, David. Several questions. I'll try to sort them out. First question, I think will go to Roberto, our President of Oncology.

Roberto Vieira: Thank you, Joe. Thank you, David. David, we spoke about the 1,300 patients that we have initiated on therapy since we have launched. As you can see from what we discussed in the previous quarter as well, we have really accelerated the adoption of patients there. We are very happy. We see a very broad range of patients. We see patients very early lines of therapy, but also patients across the entire spectrum, late lines as well. We have maintained actually a very strong pace of adding patients every week. We are on our way to become market leaders as well as to realize the potential of a $1 billion just for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer in itself. I think that you can derive from there where we are headed. We are very happy with market access, as we discussed.

Speaker #4: So, thank you, Joe. Thank you, David. So David, we spoke about the 1,300 patients that we have initiated on therapy since we have launched, as you can see from what we discussed in the previous quarter as well.

Speaker #4: We have really accelerated the adoption of patient care. And we are very happy we see a very broad range of patients. We see patients very early lines of therapy, but also patients across the entire spectrum late lines as well.

Speaker #4: And we have maintained actually a very strong pace of adding patients every week. We are on our way to become market leaders as well as to realize the potential of a $1 billion just for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer in itself.

Roberto Vieira: We have maintained actually a very strong pace of adding patients every week. We are on our way to become market leaders as well as to realize the potential of a $1 billion just for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer in itself. I think that you can derive from there where we are headed. We are very happy with market access, as we discussed.

Speaker #4: So I think that you can derive from there what we are headed. We are very happy with market access as we discussed. So overall, the story holds together as significant growth is ahead of us.

Roberto Vieira: Overall, the story holds together and significant growth is ahead of us. Now, talking about this rate of acceleration of demand, we have, of course, as I said, very strong uptake so far, and we are actually working very hard to educate a much broader group of physicians that expands and across new clinics. We think we have meaningful opportunity ahead. Our goal is to really go early and go broad. When I say go early, we think that Lifyorli is a drug that belongs early in the intervention. We think that the overall survival benefit, especially the fact that the drug has the opportunity to impact the disease, has a disease modification effect. You look at the overall survival curve, you see that those curves separate over time. It is increasingly positive benefit to patients.

Speaker #4: Now, talking about this rate of acceleration of demand, we have of course as I said, very strong uptake so far. And we are actually working very hard to educate a much broader group of physicians that expands across new clinics.

Speaker #4: We think we have a meaningful opportunity ahead. So our goal is to really go early and go broad. And when I say go early, we think that Lufthali is a drug that belongs early in the intervention.

Roberto Vieira: Our goal is to really go early and go broad. When I say go early, we think that Lifyorli is a drug that belongs early in the intervention. We think that the overall survival benefit, especially the fact that the drug has the opportunity to impact the disease, has a disease modification effect. You look at the overall survival curve, you see that those curves separate over time. It is increasingly positive benefit to patients.

Speaker #4: We think that the overall survival benefit, especially the fact that the drug has the opportunity to impact the disease as a disease modification effect, is significant.

Speaker #4: You look at the overall survival curve you see that those curves separate over time. So it doesn't increasingly positive benefit to patients. And all those things together, points to this drug really belonging into early lines of platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

Roberto Vieira: All those things together points to this drug really belonging into early lines of platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. When you put all this together, the profile of the drug, the outcome opportunity, you should be looking to continuous growth for the brand for the quarters to come.

Speaker #4: So when we put all this together, the profile of the drug, the outcome opportunity, you should be looking into continuous growth for the brand, for the quarter to come.

Speaker #2: Very good. Thank you, Roberto. And Sean, why don't you take the next question about where things stand with the pharmacy?

Joseph K. Belanoff: Very good. Thank you, Roberto. Sean, why don't you take the next question about where things stand with the pharmacy?

Joe Belanoff: Very good. Thank you, Roberto. Sean, why don't you take the next question about where things stand with the pharmacy?

Speaker #5: Yeah, no, happy to take that. So, in terms of just how the quarter ended up, I want to just set the stage. I mean, we had record enrollments.

Sean Maduck: Happy to take that. In terms of just how the quarter ended up, I want to just set the stage. We had record enrollments. We had a record number of new prescribers, a record number of patients on medicine, which of course led to the highest tablets we've seen. The market is growing, and of course that was evidenced in our business in Q2, but we expect that to continue to grow and of course to continue to benefit our business. In terms of the pharmacy specifically, we saw continuous improvement every single day, and we expect that continued improvement to move forward. As I just mentioned, the market is growing, our business is growing, and we expect them to continue to improve and continue to keep up.

Speaker #5: We had a record number of new prescribers and a record number of patients on medicine, which, of course, led to the highest number of tablets we've seen.

Speaker #5: The market is growing. And of course, that was evidenced in our business in the second quarter. But we expect that to continue to grow.

Speaker #5: And of course, to continue to benefit our business. Now, in terms of the pharmacy specifically, I mean, we saw continuous improvement. Every single day.

Sean Maduck: In terms of the pharmacy specifically, we saw continuous improvement every single day, and we expect that continued improvement to move forward. As I just mentioned, the market is growing, our business is growing, and we expect them to continue to improve and continue to keep up.

Speaker #5: And we expect that continued improvement to move forward. As I just mentioned, the market is growing. Our business is growing. And we expect them to continue to improve and continue to keep up.

Speaker #2: And Atabak, perhaps you can respond to the guidance question.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Atabak, perhaps you can respond to the guidance question.

Joe Belanoff: Atabak, perhaps you can respond to the guidance question.

Atabak Mokari: Sure. Our new guidance range reflects strength across both of our businesses, across both Endocrinology and Oncology. Both of those are reflected in the updated guidance range.

Speaker #3: Sure. Yeah. So our new guidance range reflects strength across both of our businesses, across both endocrinology and oncology. And so that's both of those are reflected in the update.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Okay. Please. Thank you, David. Next question. Certainly. Our next question comes from the line of Swayam Ramakanth from H.C. Wainwright. Your question, please.

Joe Belanoff: Okay. Please. Thank you, David. Next question.

Speaker #2: Okay. Please. Thank you, David. And next question.

Speaker #1: Certainly. And our next question comes from the line of Swayampakula Ramakanth from HC Wainwright. Your question, please.

Operator: Certainly. Our next question comes from the line of Swayam Ramakanth from H.C. Wainwright. Your question, please.

Speaker #3: Thank you. Good afternoon. I have just a couple of questions. One on Lufthali and one on Coralem. On Lufthali, did 40 approximately 48 million in the first quarter.

Swayam Ramakanth: Thank you. Good afternoon. I have just a couple of questions, one on Lifyorli and one on Korlym. On Lifyorli, did approximately $48 million in Q1, with more than 1,300 patients started, as you stated. How much of that reflects distanced demand versus initial channel build? How many unique prescribers do you have at this point beyond the 200 that you cited in April? Any commentary on duration of therapy would be helpful as well. On Korlym-

Speaker #3: With more than 1,300 patients started, as you stated, how much of that reflects distance demand versus initial channel build? And how many unique prescribers do you have at this point, beyond the 200 that you cited in April?

Speaker #3: And any commentary on duration of therapy would be helpful as well. And then on Coralem, we are back to. We are back to seeing 27% sequential growth.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Yeah

Joe Belanoff: Yeah

Swayam Ramakanth: we are back to seeing-

Joseph K. Belanoff: Sorry, RK

Joe Belanoff: Sorry, RK

Swayam Ramakanth: We are back to seeing 27% sequential growth. How much of this is clearing up of the backlog from the pharmacy transition versus capacity growth that you currently have gained with the new pharmacy on board?

Speaker #3: How much of this is clearing up the backlog from the pharmacy transition versus capacity growth that you currently have gained with the new pharmacy onboard?

Speaker #2: Okay, thank you, Arkie. I think we got both of those questions. Roberto, would you like to answer the first question on oncology growth?

Joseph K. Belanoff: Okay. Thank you, RK. I think we got both of those questions. Roberto, would you like to answer the first question on oncology growth?

Joe Belanoff: Okay. Thank you, RK. I think we got both of those questions. Roberto, would you like to answer the first question on oncology growth?

Speaker #5: Yeah. So Arkie, as you said, 1,300 patients initiated therapy and 1,000 unique prescribers since we have launched. So that is, I think, the answer to your question.

Roberto Vieira: Yeah. RK, as you said, 1,300 patients initiated therapy and 1,000 unique prescribers since we have launched. That is, I think, the answer to your question. You asked about the duration of therapy. It's kind of early for us to assess the duration of therapy. As you can imagine, most of our patients, we have followed them through for a couple of months or weeks. We think that the ROSELA data is a very good benchmark for us. Think about our PFS data. That's what we think that we will have that reflect in the patient population.

Speaker #5: You asked about the duration of therapy. It's kind of early for us to assess the duration of therapy as you can imagine most of our patients, we have followed them through just for a couple of months or weeks.

Speaker #5: And we think that the Rosella data is a very good benchmark for us to think about our PFS there. That's what we think that we will have that reflected in the patient population.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Roberto. And Sean.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Thank you, Roberto. Sean.

Joe Belanoff: Thank you, Roberto. Sean.

Atabak Mokari: He had a question on inventory.

Speaker #3: He had a question on inventory.

Speaker #2: Oh, yes. Okay, I'm sorry. Yes, the question was related to inventory. That's for you, Atabak.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Oh, yes. Okay, I'm sorry. Yes. The question was related to inventory. That's for you, Atabak.

Joe Belanoff: Oh, yes. Okay, I'm sorry. Yes. The question was related to inventory. That's for you, Atabak.

Atabak Mokari: I'll take that one. Your question on that, RK, the simple answer is no, there's not much inventory contribution in the quarter results. What do I mean by that? The background is that we sell through both specialty pharmacies and specialty distributors. Revenues through the specialty pharmacy are direct to patient, so there is no inventory at the channel level. It's all direct to patient and realized when the patient received the medicine. Just to be clear, in our Cushing's syndrome business, almost 100% of our business goes through the specialty pharmacy. On the oncology side, about 30% goes through the specialty pharmacy, and the rest goes through specialty distributors, which do hold inventory to then ultimately provide to hospital pharmacies and so forth. Within that, ultimately, given the cost of the medication, the distributors want to hold minimal inventory.

Speaker #3: I'll take that one. So your question on that, Arkie, is the simple answer is no, there's not much inventory contribution in the quarter results.

Speaker #3: And so what do I mean by that? So the background is that we sell through both specialty pharmacies and specialty distributors. Our revenues through the specialty pharmacy are direct to patient.

Speaker #3: So there is no inventory at the channel level. It's all direct to patient and realized when the patient receives the medicine. So through the specialty and in just to be clear, in our Cushing syndrome business, almost 100% of our business goes through the specialty pharmacy.

Atabak Mokari: Just to be clear, in our Cushing's syndrome business, almost 100% of our business goes through the specialty pharmacy. On the oncology side, about 30% goes through the specialty pharmacy, and the rest goes through specialty distributors, which do hold inventory to then ultimately provide to hospital pharmacies and so forth. Within that, ultimately, given the cost of the medication, the distributors want to hold minimal inventory. You're talking about roughly about a week of demand that they keep on hand. Like I stated at the beginning, very little of inventory dynamics in the quarter results.

Speaker #3: And on the oncology side, about 30% goes through the specialty pharmacy. And the rest goes through specialty distributors, which do hold inventory to then ultimately provide to hospital pharmacies and so forth.

Speaker #3: Within that, I mean, ultimately, this is given the cost of the medication, the distributors want to hold minimal inventory. So you're talking about roughly about a week of demand that they keep on hand.

Atabak Mokari: You're talking about roughly about a week of demand that they keep on hand. Like I stated at the beginning, very little of inventory dynamics in the quarter results.

Speaker #3: So, like I said at the beginning, there was very little impact from inventory dynamics in the quarter's results.

Speaker #2: Thank you. Okay. And Sean, you have a couple of questions here.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Thank you. Okay. Sean, you have a couple questions here.

Joe Belanoff: Thank you. Okay. Sean, you have a couple questions here.

Speaker #5: Yeah. So thanks, Arkie. So your question, I think, was the 44 million dollar growth we saw from Q2 over Q1 driven by sort of catch-up associated with the pharmacy transition.

Sean Maduck: Yeah. Thanks, RK. Your question, I think, was the $44 million growth we saw from Q2 over Q1 driven by sort of catch-up associated with the pharmacy transition. The answer to that is no. The transition is behind us. The number was driven by continued servicing of our existing patient base and, as I shared earlier, a record number of new enrollments coming in, so the servicing of new patients coming in. We've had a record number of patients every single month, and we expect that to continue to grow.

Speaker #5: And the answer to that is no. The transition is behind us. The number was driven by continued servicing of our existing patient base and as I shared earlier, a record number of new enrollments coming in.

Speaker #5: So the servicing of new patients coming in. We've had a record number of patients every single month. And we expect that to continue to grow.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Thank you, Sean.

Joe Belanoff: Thank you, Sean.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Sean.

Speaker #3: Thank you.

Swayam Ramakanth: Thank you.

Joseph K. Belanoff: Okay. Thank you. Well, thank you everyone. It was a very exciting quarter for us. It is really wonderful to be able to help this new group of patients. We really hope to enlarge that as we go forward and really have great expectations that we will. We will talk to you next quarter. Thank you very much, and enjoy the rest of your summer. Bye-bye.

Joe Belanoff: Okay. Thank you. Well, thank you everyone. It was a very exciting quarter for us. It is really wonderful to be able to help this new group of patients. We really hope to enlarge that as we go forward and really have great expectations that we will. We will talk to you next quarter. Thank you very much, and enjoy the rest of your summer. Bye-bye.

Speaker #2: Okay. Thank you. Well, thank you, everyone. It was a very exciting quarter for us. It's really wonderful to be able to help this new group of patients.

Speaker #2: We really hope to enlarge that as we go forward and really have great expectations that we will. So we'll talk to you next quarter.

Speaker #2: Thank you very much. And enjoy the rest of your summer. Bye-bye.
