Wall Street Analysts Think Urogen Pharma (URGN) Could Surge 27.14%: Read This Before Placing a Bet | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Shares of Urogen Pharma (URGN - Free Report) have gained 10.1% over the past four weeks to close the last trading session at $46.8, but there could still be a solid upside left in the stock if short-term price targets of Wall Street analysts are any indication. Going by the price targets, the mean estimate of $59.5 indicates a potential upside of 27.1%.The average comprises eight short-term price targets ranging from a low of $44.00 to a high of $75.00, with a standard deviation of $8.68. While the lowest estimate indicates a decline of 6% from the current price level, the most optimistic estimate points to a 60.3% upside. More than the range, one should note the standard deviation here, as it helps understand the variability of the estimates. The smaller the standard deviation, the greater the agreement among analysts. While the consensus price target is a much-coveted metric for investors, solely banking on this metric to make an investment decision may not be wise at all. That's because the ability and unbiasedness of analysts in setting price targets have long been questionable. However, an impressive consensus price target is not the only factor that indicates a potential upside in URGN. This view is strengthened by the agreement among analysts that the company will report better earnings than what they estimated earlier. Though a positive trend in earnings estimate revisions doesn't give any idea as to how much the stock could surge, it has proven effective in predicting an upside. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise Here's What You Should Know About Analysts' Price TargetsAccording to researchers at several universities across the globe, a price target is one of many pieces of information about a stock that misleads investors far more often than it guides. In fact, empirical research shows that price targets set by several analysts, irrespective of the extent of agreement, rarely indicate where the price of a stock could actually be heading. While Wall Street analysts have deep knowledge of a company's fundamentals and the sensitivity of its business to economic and industry issues, many of them tend to set overly optimistic price targets. Are you wondering why? They usually do that to drum up interest in shares of companies that their firms either have existing business relationships with or are looking to be associated with. In other words, business incentives of firms covering a stock often result in inflated price targets set by analysts. However, a tight clustering of price targets, which is represented by a low standard deviation, indicates that analysts have a high degree of agreement about the direction and magnitude of a stock's price movement. While that doesn't necessarily mean the stock will hit the average price target, it could be a good starting point for further research aimed at identifying the potential fundamental driving forces. That said, while investors should not entirely ignore price targets, making an investment decision solely based on them could lead to disappointing ROI. So, price targets should always be treated with a high degree of skepticism. Why URGN Could Witness a Solid UpsideAnalysts' growing optimism over the company's earnings prospects, as indicated by strong agreement among them in revising EPS estimates higher, could be a legitimate reason to expect an upside in the stock. That's because empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the current year has increased 73.2%, as five estimates have moved higher compared to no negative revision. Moreover, URGN currently has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), which means it is in the top 20% of more than 4,000 stocks that we rank based on four factors related to earnings estimates. Given an impressive externally-audited track record, this is a more conclusive indication of the stock's potential upside in the near term. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) stocks here >>>> . Therefore, while the consensus price target may not be a reliable indicator of how much URGN could gain, the direction of price movement it implies does appear to be a good guide. |

UroGen Announces Strategic Collaboration and Investment Agreements with IntraGel to Access Biodegradable Sustained-Release Gel Platform and Expand Oncology Pipeline | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Collaboration grants UroGen a research license and exclusive options to license and develop up to three oncology products utilizing IntraGel's proprietary SRGel platformAgreement also includes an exclusive option to acquire worldwide rights to TumoCure, an investigational therapy for advanced head and neck cancer PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotechnology company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced a strategic Option and Research License Agreement (the Option Agreement) and a related equity investment agreement (the Investment Agreement) with IntraGel Therapeutics, Ltd. (IntraGel).The Option Agreement includes two strategic components. First, UroGen gains access to IntraGel's proprietary SRGel platform, a biodegradable, sustained-release formulation technology designed for localized drug delivery, through a research license and options to obtain an exclusive, worldwide license to develop and commercialize up to three additional oncology products combining the SRGel platform with compounds to be designated by UroGen. Second, UroGen receives an exclusive option to obtain an exclusive, worldwide license to develop and commercialize TumoCure, IntraGel’s investigational therapy for advanced head and neck cancer, following IntraGel's completion of a Phase 2 clinical study. "This Option Agreement represents an important step in expanding UroGen's oncology pipeline and technological capabilities," said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. "IntraGel's biodegradable, sustained-release technology complements our expertise in local drug delivery while creating significant optionality for future innovation. Beyond the opportunity to advance TumoCure following a Phase 2 clinical study, we believe the SRGel technology could potentially enable multiple therapeutic approaches across a range of solid tumors and provide a foundation for new product opportunities over time." In connection with the Option Agreement, UroGen has also entered into an Investment Agreement with IntraGel, pursuant to which UroGen will invest up to $7 million in the equity securities of IntraGel. SRGel is a biodegradable depot technology designed to enable sustained local release of therapeutic agents over extended periods. The platform's flexibility supports multiple therapeutic modalities and has potential applicability across a broad range of solid tumor settings. “UroGen’s leadership in localized oncology therapies and commercial-stage experience make them an ideal partner to help advance the SRGel platform and accelerate the development of TumoCure,” said Peter Siman, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of IntraGel. “We see in this collaboration an important validation of the SRGel platform and the clinical potential of our lead product candidate, TumoCure, while creating a strong pathway to accelerate development across multiple oncology indications.” TumoCure is an investigational cisplatin treatment formulated with IntraGel’s proprietary SRGel platform, designed to enable prolonged localized drug exposure while limiting systemic exposure. Presented at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, early clinical data (N=8) showed that TumoCure was generally well tolerated in Phase 1b patients, showed low systemic cisplatin exposure, and provided early indications of anti-tumor activity in a heavily pretreated patient population, including patients with cisplatin treatment-resistant disease. Investigators also reported improvements in tumor-related symptoms in certain patients. These findings support continued clinical development of TumoCure and further expansion of the SRGel platform as a potential approach for sustained local therapy across additional solid tumors with the goal of minimizing systemic exposure. About SRGel SRGel is IntraGel’s proprietary injectable hydrophobic gel-like drug delivery platform designed to enable sustained drug release directly within solid tumors. Built on a proprietary water-free and solvent-free fatty-acids based polymer matrix, SRGel is engineered to provide controlled, and prolonged release of therapeutic agents following a single administration, with applicability for both localized delivery at the target site and sustained local exposure. The technology is designed, when injected intratumorally, to maintain high local drug concentrations while minimizing systemic exposure and associated toxicities. SRGel has shown early indications of compatibility with a broad range of therapeutic modalities, including small molecules, peptides and biologics, and may be applicable across various therapeutic areas and indications, including weight loss management and inflammatory diseases. About TumoCure TumoCure is IntraGel’s lead product candidate and the first clinical application of the SRGel platform. TumoCure consists of cisplatin incorporated into the SRGel biodegradable matrix and is administered as a single intratumoral injection. The investigational therapy is designed to provide sustained delivery of cisplatin directly within tumor tissue over several months while limiting systemic exposure. TumoCure is Phase 2-ready and is currently being developed for patients with locally advanced, inoperable head and neck cancers, who are ineligible for systemic cisplatin-based chemoradiation. IntraGel is pursuing development through the U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA)’s 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway and believes the technology may have future applicability across additional solid tumor indications, including lung, brain, gastrointestinal, ovarian and testicular cancers. About UroGen Pharma Ltd. UroGen is a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers because patients deserve better options. UroGen has developed RTGel® reverse-thermal hydrogel, a proprietary sustained-release, hydrogel-based platform technology that has the potential to improve the therapeutic profiles of existing drugs. UroGen’s sustained release technology is designed to enable longer exposure of the urinary tract tissue to medications, making local therapy a potentially more effective treatment option. Our first product is approved to treat low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer, and our second product is approved for adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Both products are designed to ablate tumors by non-surgical means. UroGen is headquartered in Princeton, NJ with operations in Israel.

UroGen Submits NDA for UGN-103, an Investigational Treatment of Recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced the submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its investigational drug UGN-103 (mitomycin) for intravesical solution. UGN-103 is a next-generation mitomycin formulation being developed for the treatment of adults with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC). It is built on the clinical and commercial foundation of ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution."The NDA submission for UGN-103 marks another important milestone in advancing our vision to redefine the treatment of urothelial cancers," said Liz Barrett, President and CEO of UroGen. "UGN-103 represents the next evolution in our portfolio and is designed to provide a more streamlined manufacturing process, simplified reconstitution and extended shelf-life of the reconstituted product while leveraging our RTGel® technology." The NDA for UGN-103 is supported by the clinical data from the ongoing Phase 3 UTOPIA trial, a single-arm, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of UGN-103 in adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. UGN-103 demonstrated a 77.8% three-month complete response (CR) rate (95% CI: 68.3%, 85.5%) and a 94.5% six-month duration of response (DOR) by Kaplan-Meier estimate (95% CI: 86.1%, 97.9%). Both the three-month CR rate and the DOR observed at six months with UGN-103 in the UTOPIA trial are consistent with those observed in the pivotal ENVISION trial of ZUSDURI. Because these findings are derived from separate clinical studies, no formal cross-trial comparison was performed. About UGN-103 In January 2024, UroGen entered into a licensing and supply agreement with medac to develop UGN-103 for recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. UGN-103 is designed to reinforce and build on the clinical and commercial foundation of ZUSDURI, the first and only FDA-approved treatment for adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. The program maintains UroGen’s innovative and proven RTGel technology, enabling sustained mitomycin exposure in the bladder, while incorporating next-generation enhancements, including a more streamlined manufacturing process and simplified reconstitution to support improved ease of use in clinical practice. UroGen holds U.S. patents covering the combination of its proprietary RTGel technology with medac’s licensed lyophilized mitomycin formulation, as well as the use of UGN-103 in LG-IR-NMIBC, with intellectual property coverage expected to extend into July 2044. About ZUSDURI ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is an innovative drug formulation of mitomycin, approved for the treatment of adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Utilizing UroGen’s proprietary RTGel technology (a sustained release, hydrogel-based formulation), ZUSDURI is delivered directly into the bladder by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter in an outpatient setting, thereby enabling the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means. About Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) LG-IR-NMIBC affects around 82,000 people in the United States every year and of those, an estimated 59,000 are people experiencing recurrence. Bladder cancer primarily affects older populations with increased risk of comorbidities, with the median age of diagnosis being 73 years. Guideline recommendations for the management of NMIBC include transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) as the standard of care. Up to 70 percent of NMIBC patients experience at least one recurrence, and LG-IR-NMIBC patients are even more likely to recur and face repeated TURBT procedures. Learn more about NMIBC at www.BladderCancerAnswers.com. About UTOPIA The UTOPIA trial is a single-arm, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of UGN-103 in 99 patients across global sites. Enrolled patients received 75 mg of UGN-103 via intravesical instillation in an outpatient setting once weekly for six weeks. The primary endpoint is CR rate at three months, with responders entering a follow-up phase of up to 12 months to assess DOR. For more information on the UTOPIA study, please visit https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06331299. About UroGen Pharma Ltd. UroGen is a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers because patients deserve better options. UroGen has developed RTGel reverse-thermal hydrogel, a proprietary sustained-release, hydrogel-based platform technology that has the potential to improve the therapeutic profiles of existing drugs. UroGen’s sustained release technology is designed to enable longer exposure of the urinary tract tissue to medications, making local therapy a potentially more effective treatment option. UroGen’s first product treats low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer and UroGen’s second product, ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution, treats adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC; both are designed to ablate tumors by non-surgical means.

Are You Looking for a Top Momentum Pick? Why Urogen Pharma (URGN) is a Great Choice | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Momentum investing revolves around the idea of following a stock's recent trend in either direction. In "long context," investors will be essentially be "buying high, but hoping to sell even higher." With this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock's price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving that way. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.Even though momentum is a popular stock characteristic, it can be tough to define. Debate surrounding which are the best and worst metrics to focus on is lengthy, but the Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us. Below, we take a look at Urogen Pharma (URGN - Free Report) , a company that currently holds a Momentum Style Score of A. We also talk about price change and earnings estimate revisions, two of the main aspects of the Momentum Style Score. It's also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Urogen Pharma currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of "A or B" outperform the market over the following one-month period. You can see the current list of Zacks #1 Rank Stocks here >>> Set to Beat the Market?Let's discuss some of the components of the Momentum Style Score for URGN that show why this company shows promise as a solid momentum pick. Looking at a stock's short-term price activity is a great way to gauge if it has momentum, since this can reflect both the current interest in a stock and if buyers or sellers have the upper hand at the moment. It is also useful to compare a security to its industry, as this can help investors pinpoint the top companies in a particular area. For URGN, shares are up 22.8% over the past week while the Zacks Medical - Biomedical and Genetics industry is up 5.91% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 20.3% compares favorably with the industry's 0.93% performance as well. While any stock can see a spike in price, it takes a real winner to consistently outperform the market. Shares of Urogen Pharma have increased 61.04% over the past quarter, and have gained 139.64% in the last year. In comparison, the S&P 500 has only moved 5.06% and 21.84%, respectively. Investors should also take note of URGN's average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. Right now URGN is averaging 878,770 shares for the last 20 days.. Earnings OutlookThe Zacks Momentum Style Score also takes into account trends in estimate revisions, in addition to price changes. Please note that estimate revision trends remain at the core of Zacks Rank as well. A nice path here can help show promise, and we have recently been seeing that with URGN. Over the past two months, 5 earnings estimates moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost URGN's consensus estimate, increasing from -$0.98 to -$0.20 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 5 estimates have moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period. Bottom LineTaking into account all of these elements, it should come as no surprise that URGN is a #2 (Buy) stock with a Momentum Score of A. If you've been searching for a fresh pick that's set to rise in the near-term, make sure to keep Urogen Pharma on your short list. |

Urogen Pharma Q2 Earnings Call Highlights | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
3 Bullish Biotech Stocks With Explosive Growth TrendsUrogen Pharma NASDAQ: URGN reported second-quarter 2026 revenue of $72.5 million, up from $24.2 million a year earlier, as the commercial launch of bladder cancer treatment ZUSDURI continued to gain traction. The company recorded a net loss of $14.4 million, or $0.28 per share, compared with a $49.9 million loss, or $1.05 per share, in the prior-year quarter.ZUSDURI generated $50.4 million in net product revenue during the quarter, representing a 73% increase from the first quarter, according to President and Chief Executive Officer Liz Barrett. The treatment is approved for adults with recurrent, low-grade, intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Get Urogen Pharma alerts: Barrett said the launch showed expanding use in hospital and community settings, greater repeat prescribing and improved practice workflows. As of June 30, the company had 1,444 activated accounts, compared with 972 at the end of the first quarter. Unique prescribers rose to 452 from 256, while repeat prescribers nearly doubled to 204. Repeat prescribers represented about 45% of ZUSDURI writers at quarter-end, versus approximately 40% in the first quarter. Barrett said the company considers repeat use an important measure of physicians’ confidence and the product’s potential for longer-term adoption. ZUSDURI Adoption Shifts Toward Community Practices Approximately 55% of ZUSDURI utilization came from community urology practices at the end of the quarter, compared with 45% from hospitals. Barrett said UroGen estimates that about 70% of the addressable market is treated in community practices, making that setting a key opportunity for future growth. The company said it has open access across more than 95% of covered lives and does not see material reimbursement barriers. Barrett said the product’s permanent J-code has improved reimbursement confidence and enabled broader utilization. Management said it is working to reduce the time between patient enrollment and treatment initiation. UroGen’s goal is to reach a two-to-three-week enrollment-to-treatment cycle similar to what it sees for JELMYTO, its treatment for low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer. During the question-and-answer session, Barrett said ZUSDURI usage has been observed across patients who have undergone varying numbers of transurethral resection of bladder tumor, or TURBT, procedures. She said physicians are increasingly using the treatment without surgery as they gain familiarity with it, although some continue to use it after an initial procedure. Chief Financial Officer Chris Degnan said the company expects quarter-to-quarter variability in ZUSDURI sales, including possible seasonal effects during the summer. While management expects continued quarter-over-quarter growth in the third quarter, Barrett said the company does not expect the same degree of acceleration seen in the second quarter. UroGen does not yet provide full-year ZUSDURI revenue guidance. Degnan said the company intends to let demand trends develop through the remainder of 2026 before considering formal guidance, which he indicated would be more likely next year. JELMYTO Revenue Remains Stable JELMYTO generated $22 million in second-quarter revenue, compared with $21.7 million in the first quarter. UroGen maintained its full-year JELMYTO net product revenue guidance of $97 million to $101 million, representing growth of roughly 3% to 7% over 2025. Barrett said the company has seen some physicians begin using JELMYTO after being contacted about ZUSDURI, but it has not experienced a broad “halo” effect on JELMYTO demand. She also noted that UroGen’s sales force has prioritized ZUSDURI and that clinical trials, including UroGen’s UGN-104 study and competitor studies, may be enrolling patients who might otherwise have been candidates for JELMYTO. During the quarter, UroGen reached a settlement and license agreement with Teva that resolved JELMYTO patent litigation. The company also received a notice of allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a method-of-treatment patent covering ZUSDURI and UGN-103. UroGen expects the patent, once issued, to provide protection through July 2044. Pipeline Programs Advance Chief Medical Officer Mark Schoenberg said updated data from the Phase 3 ENVISION study showed that, among patients who achieved a complete response at three months, the Kaplan-Meier estimated probability of remaining disease-free at 36 months was 64.5%. At a median follow-up of 35.5 months, the median duration of response had not been reached. UroGen remains on track to submit a new drug application for UGN-103, an investigational next-generation treatment for recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, in the third quarter of 2026. The company previously reported a six-month duration of response of 94.5% by Kaplan-Meier estimate in the Phase 3 UTOPIA trial. Following a Type C meeting with the FDA, UroGen plans to begin a Phase 3 trial of UGN-103 later this year in high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. The company also plans to study the treatment in the adjuvant setting for newly diagnosed low-grade intermediate-risk patients beginning in 2027. UGN-104, a potential successor to JELMYTO for low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer, remains in Phase 3 development, with enrollment expected to be completed by the end of 2026. UroGen also expects to begin a Phase 1 study of UGN-501, an investigational oncolytic virus for high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, later this year after the FDA cleared its investigational new drug application in July. Expenses Rise as Company Increases Commercial Investment Research and development expense fell to $17.3 million from $18.9 million a year earlier, primarily because ZUSDURI manufacturing costs had been recorded as research and development expense before its FDA approval in 2025. Selling, general and administrative expense increased to $48.4 million from $43.2 million, reflecting ZUSDURI sales-force expansion, marketing and other commercial operating costs. UroGen raised its 2026 operating expense guidance to $260 million to $270 million, including about $20 million to $24 million in non-cash share-based compensation. Degnan said the increase reflects accelerated investment in healthcare professional education and patient-awareness efforts for ZUSDURI, as well as startup work for the UGN-103 high-grade trial and development activities for UGN-501 using the company’s RTGel technology. As of June 30, UroGen had $108 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Degnan said the company remains confident its existing capital resources can fund operations through profitability.

|
Original source text
Urogen Pharma (URGN - Free Report) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.28 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.38. This compares to a loss of $1.05 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +26.32%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this company would post a loss of $0.56 per share when it actually produced a loss of $0.47, delivering a surprise of +16.07%. Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times. Urogen Pharma, which belongs to the Zacks Medical - Biomedical and Genetics industry, posted revenues of $72.46 million for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 16.42%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $24.22 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Urogen Pharma shares have added about 70.5% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 13%. What's Next for Urogen Pharma?While Urogen Pharma has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions. Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Urogen Pharma was favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to outperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well.

This company is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.17 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +70.2%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. Biofrontera Inc.'s revenues are expected to be $9 million, down 0.3% from the year-ago quarter. |

ZUSDURI® generated $50.4 million in revenue in the second quarter of 2026, representing 73% quarter-over-quarter growthOnce issued, new U.S. patent is expected to provide protection into July 2044 for ZUSDURI and UGN-103Continued advancement of pipeline, with UGN-103 on track for NDA submission in the third quarter of 2026 and UGN-501 expected to begin a Phase 1 trial in the fourth quarter of 2026Conference call and webcast held today at 10:00 AM ET PRINCETON, N.J., Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026, and provided an overview of recent developments.“The second quarter marked another important step in establishing ZUSDURI as a foundational therapy for adult patients with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “The continued increase in utilization, expanding adoption across community practices, and growing repeat use reinforce our confidence we are building a durable commercial franchise with blockbuster potential. During the quarter, we strengthened the long-term sustainability of the franchise through a new U.S. patent allowance that, once the patent is issued, is expected to provide intellectual property coverage for both ZUSDURI and UGN-103 into July 2044. We believe this meaningfully enhances the long-term commercial opportunity for both products and further reinforces the sustainability of the franchise. Combined with the life-cycle expansion of UGN-103 and initiation of clinical development for UGN-501, we believe we are exceptionally well positioned to build a durable growth company and create long-term shareholder value.” Q2 2026 and Recent Business Highlights: ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution: ZUSDURI achieved net product revenue of $50.4 million in the second quarter of 2026, representing 73% growth over the first quarter of 2026. As of June 30, 2026, UroGen reported: 1,444 activated sites of care452 unique ZUSDURI prescribers204 repeat ZUSDURI prescribers, representing approximately 45% of total prescribers, up from 40% in the first quarter of 2026 Updated results from the Phase 3 ENVISION trial of ZUSDURI showed a 36-month duration of response (DOR) of 64.5% (95% CI: 54.6, 72.8) by Kaplan-Meier estimate among patients who achieved a complete response (CR) at three months (79.6%). At a median follow-up of 35.5 months, the median DOR had not been reached. ZUSDURI’s durability was achieved without maintenance therapy, supporting a treatment approach that can provide lasting disease control while reducing treatment burden for patients.UroGen received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a new U.S. patent covering methods of treating patients with recurrent, low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC) without transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). Once issued, the patent is expected to provide protection into July 2044, further strengthening the intellectual property supporting ZUSDURI and UGN-103 and reinforcing the long-term commercial opportunity for both products. American Urological Association (AUA) Key Opinion Leader Webinar: On May 17, 2026, UroGen hosted a Key Opinion Leader webinar at the AUA Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., focused on real-world experience with ZUSDURI. The discussion highlighted patient selection, workflow integration, treatment patterns, and physician experience across both hospital and community practices, reinforcing growing confidence in the use of ZUSDURI in routine clinical practice. A replay of the event is accessible through the Investors section of the Company’s website. JELMYTO (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution in LG-UTUC: Generated net product revenue of $22.0 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with $24.2 million reported for the second quarter of 2025. The Company continues to add new users and remains on track to deliver within its JELMYTO full-year 2026 guidance range of $97 million to $101 million.UroGen entered into a settlement and license agreement with Teva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Teva Pharmaceuticals, USA, Inc. (collectively, “Teva”) that resolves the patent litigation UroGen initiated in response to Teva’s submission of an Abbreviated New Drug Application to the U.S. FDA for a generic version of JELMYTO prior to the expiration of the relevant UroGen patents. Under the terms of the agreement, UroGen granted Teva a non-exclusive license to sell its generic version of JELMYTO beginning on September 15, 2030, if approved by the FDA, unless certain limited circumstances customarily included in these types of agreements occur. Next-generation novel mitomycin-based formulations for urothelial cancer: UGN-103 achieved a 94.5% (95% CI: 86.1, 97.9) DOR at six months by Kaplan-Meier estimate, in the ongoing Phase 3 UTOPIA trial in patients with LG-IR-NMIBC. The six-month results from UTOPIA are generally consistent with the 91.9% (95% CI: 86.9, 95.0) six-month DOR by Kaplan-Meier estimate observed with ZUSDURI in the pivotal ENVISION trial.UroGen remains on track to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) for UGN-103 in the third quarter of 2026, with potential FDA approval in 2027 and full launch anticipated following receipt of a unique J-Code. UGN-103 is designed to build on the clinical and commercial foundation of ZUSDURI. The benefits of UGN-103 include a more streamlined manufacturing process and simplified reconstitution, while preserving the innovative and proven RTGel® technology that enables sustained drug exposure at tumor sites in the bladder.The Company expects to initiate a randomized controlled Phase 3 trial evaluating UGN-103 in high-risk NMIBC in the second half of 2026, and a trial evaluating UGN-103 as adjuvant therapy in newly diagnosed intermediate-risk NMIBC patients in 2027.The Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating UGN-104 in low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer (LG-UTUC) remains on track to complete enrollment by the end of 2026. UGN-501 (investigational next-generation oncolytic virus) for use in high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: UroGen’s Investigational New Drug application for UGN-501 has been accepted by the FDA, and the Company plans to initiate its Phase 1 clinical trial in NMIBC in the fourth quarter of 2026. Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results Revenue: Total revenue was $72.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared with $24.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by the continued commercial launch of ZUSDURI. Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $17.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $0.9 million. This compares to $18.9 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $0.4 million, in the same period in 2025. The decrease in R&D expenses was primarily attributable to ZUSDURI manufacturing costs, which were recognized as an R&D expense in the second quarter of 2025 prior to receiving FDA approval. Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses: SG&A expenses were $48.4 million in the second quarter of 2026, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $4.4 million. This compares to $43.2 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $2.3 million, in the same period in 2025. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to ZUSDURI commercial activities, including the sales force expansion following ZUSDURI approval and higher brand marketing expenses, and an increase in overall commercial operation costs. Financing on Prepaid Forward Obligation: UroGen reported non-cash financing expense related to the prepaid forward obligation to RTW Investments of $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared with $4.6 million in the same period in 2025. Interest Expense on Long-term Debt: Interest expense related to long-term debt was $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared with $4.1 million in the same period in 2025. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to the additional borrowings of $75.0 million in the first quarter of 2026 in connection with the Pharmakon refinancing of long-term debt, offset by the lower interest rate. Net Loss: UroGen reported a net loss of $14.4 million, or $0.28 per basic and diluted share, in the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with a net loss of $49.9 million, or ($1.05) per basic and diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities: As of June 30, 2026, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $108.0 million. 2026 JELMYTO Revenue and Updated Company Operating Expense Guidance: The Company continues to expect 2026 net product revenue for JELMYTO to be in the range of $97 million to $101 million. This implies a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 3% to 7% over the $94 million of JELMYTO revenue reported in 2025. The Company is not providing full-year 2026 revenue guidance for ZUSDURI at this time, as the product remains in the early stages of its commercial launch. The Company is increasing its full-year 2026 operating expenses guidance to be in the range of $260 million to $270 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $20 million to $24 million. The increase reflects the decision to accelerate investment behind the business in response to the continued strength of the ZUSDURI launch. Specifically, the Company plans to increase investment in ZUSDURI peer-to-peer promotional education and patient awareness initiatives to support long-term commercial adoption, and also accelerate start-up activities for the UGN-103 high-grade NMIBC trial and development activities of UGN-501 with RTGel®.

UroGen Receives New U.S. Patent Allowance Expected to Provide Protection into July 2044 for ZUSDURI™ and UGN-103 | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
July 15, 2026 08:00 ET | Source: UroGen Pharma Ltd.PRINCETON, N.J., July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced that it has received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for patent application no. 18/784,354 entitled “Treatment of Low-Grade Intermediate-Risk Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer With a Thermally Gelling Pharmaceutical Composition Containing Mitomycin.” The allowed claims cover methods of treating patients with recurrent, low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC) without a transurethral resection of a bladder tumor (TURBT), supported by data from the ENVISION and ATLAS clinical trials. The U.S. patent, once issued, will have an expiration date in July 2044. “This patent allowance further strengthens the intellectual property foundation supporting ZUSDURI and our UGN-103 investigational medicine, if approved, and underscores the innovation behind our proprietary RTGel® technology,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “Supported by data from the ENVISION and ATLAS trials of ZUSDURI, these patent claims reflect the ability of our RTGel-based technology to deliver mitomycin as a primary, non-surgical treatment option for adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC without a TURBT. We believe this approach helps patients achieve highly durable recurrence-free intervals while reducing the burden of repeat surgical interventions.” Building on the growing body of clinical evidence supporting ZUSDURI and UGN-103, UroGen remains focused on advancing its proprietary RTGel technology and developing innovative therapies that have the potential to expand non-surgical treatment options for patients with urothelial cancers and strengthen the company’s long-term growth opportunities. About ZUSDURI ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is an innovative drug formulation of mitomycin, approved for the treatment of adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Utilizing UroGen’s proprietary RTGel technology (a sustained release, hydrogel-based formulation), ZUSDURI is delivered directly into the bladder by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter in an outpatient setting, thereby enabling the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means. About UGN-103 In January 2024, UroGen entered into a licensing and supply agreement with medac to develop UGN-103 for recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. UGN-103 is designed to reinforce and extend the clinical and commercial profile of ZUSDURI, the first and only FDA-approved treatment for adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. The program maintains UroGen’s innovative and proven RTGel technology, enabling sustained mitomycin exposure in the bladder, while incorporating next-generation enhancements, including a more streamlined manufacturing process and simplified reconstitution to support improved ease of use in clinical practice. UroGen holds U.S. patents covering the combination of its proprietary RTGel technology with medac’s licensed lyophilized mitomycin formulation, as well as the use of UGN-103 in LG-IR-NMIBC, with intellectual property protection expected to extend into December 2041. About UroGen Pharma Ltd.

UroGen's Chief Medical Officer Sold $400,000 in Stock After a 191% Run | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Mark Schoenberg, Chief Medical Officer, sold 10,000 ordinary shares of UroGen Pharma Ltd. (URGN 4.15%) on July 9, 2026, for a total value of $400,000, according to an SEC Form 4 filing.Transaction summaryMetricValueTransaction value$400,000Shares sold10,000Post-transaction shares (directly held)119,763Post-transaction value$4.82 millionKey questionsWhat was the mechanism for this transaction? The sale was conducted under a pre-established Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted on August 15, 2025, which provides for automated execution and represents the concluding transaction of that plan's schedule.What is the scale of the insider's remaining direct investment? Mark Schoenberg continues to hold 119,763 ordinary shares directly.What financial context does UroGen Pharma Ltd. present at this valuation? The biotechnology company, which develops solutions for urothelial and specialty cancers, reported trailing 12-month revenue of $140.5 million and a net loss of $133.2 million.How does the current market capitalization compare to the transaction level? The disposition occurred with the company's market capitalization at $2.0 billion, following a period of performance where shares were priced at $40.23 as of the July 9, 2026 market close.Company OverviewMetricValueShare Price (as of market close 2026-07-09)$40.23Market Capitalization$2.0 billionRevenue (TTM)$140.5 millionNet Income (TTM)-$133.2 millionCompany SnapshotUroGen Pharma develops and commercializes innovative solutions for urothelial and specialty cancers, with primary revenue sources including Zusduri, a sustained-release mitomycin formulation for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, and RTGel, a proprietary reverse thermal gelation hydrogel technology platform.The company operates a commercial-stage biotechnology business model focused on bringing novel therapeutic formulations to market, generating revenue through product sales while continuing to invest in research and development for pipeline expansion.UroGen's primary customers are urology and oncology specialists, with target markets encompassing patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and other urothelial malignancies requiring adjuvant chemotherapy and specialized treatment modalities.UroGen Pharma is a commercial-stage biotechnology company with a $2 billion market capitalization, demonstrating significant growth momentum with a one-year stock appreciation of 191.31%. The company has achieved meaningful revenue scale at $140.5 million TTM while maintaining a focused pipeline strategy centered on proprietary drug delivery technologies for underserved oncology indications. UroGen's competitive advantage derives from its proprietary RTGel platform technology and its established commercial infrastructure for specialty cancer therapeutics, positioning the company as a differentiated player in the niche urothelial cancer treatment market. What this transaction means for investorsFirst, it’s important to note that this was the final trade in a 10b5-1 plan Schoenberg set almost a year ago, so the timing was locked in long before Schoenberg could know how the firm was necessarily going to be performing. He still holds nearly 120,000 shares worth close to $4.8 million, and a chief medical officer keeping a stake that size while the company's newest drug is inflecting isn't sending any signal about the science. The launch of Zusduri, UroGen’s new bladder cancer therapy, is what matters here, and it's going well. UroGen's first quarter revenue jumped 152% to $51 million, as a result of the launch, which brought in $29.2 million and more than doubled quarter over quarter after a permanent insurance billing code kicked in. CEO Liz Barrett called January's J-code "a major inflection point," and unique prescribers jumped to 256 from 102 in a single quarter. More recently, the firm announced that the FDA cleared its investigational new drug application for UGN-501, enabling a planned Phase 1 study in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. It’s expected to begin in the fourth quarter. Jonathan Ponciano has no position in any of the stocks mentioned. The Motley Fool has no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

UroGen Announces FDA Clearance of the IND for UGN-501, an Investigational Next-Generation Oncolytic Virus for Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer | FMP Stock News | |

Original source text
July 08, 2026 08:00 ET | Source: UroGen Pharma Ltd.FDA clearance enables initiation of a planned Phase 1 clinical study evaluating local intravesical administration of UGN-501, with patient enrollment expected to begin in Q4 2026UGN-501 is a differentiated investigational next-generation oncolytic virus designed to combine direct tumor cell destruction with anti-tumor immune activation PRINCETON, N.J., July 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared the Company's Investigational New Drug application (IND) for UGN-501, a next-generation investigational oncolytic virus. The IND clearance enables initiation of a planned Phase 1 clinical study in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The Phase 1 study is expected to begin in Q4 2026 and will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of intravesical administration of UGN-501. "Patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer continue to face a significant risk of disease recurrence despite available treatment options," said Mark Schoenberg, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of UroGen. "UGN-501 is an investigational next-generation oncolytic virus designed to selectively destroy tumor cells while generating an anti-tumor immune response. FDA clearance of the IND allows us to begin evaluating whether the encouraging nonclinical profile of UGN-501 can translate into a safe and meaningful therapeutic approach for patients with NMIBC. We look forward to initiating the Phase 1 study and advancing our efforts to develop innovative treatment options for patients with bladder cancer." NMIBC continues to present significant clinical challenges, particularly among patients whose disease recurs following standard treatment. Despite available therapies, recurrence rates remain substantial, underscoring the need for novel bladder-sparing therapeutic approaches. UroGen believes UGN-501's differentiated mechanism of action and local administration strategy may offer a promising new approach for addressing this unmet need. About UGN-501 UGN-501 is an investigational, next-generation oncolytic virus being investigated for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). UGN-501 is designed to selectively replicate within tumor cells, resulting in direct tumor cell destruction and an anti-tumor immune response. The program is supported by nonclinical data demonstrating cytotoxic activity across a broad panel of bladder cancer cell lines representing multiple stages and grades of disease. While UGN-501 is initially being developed for bladder cancer, the Company believes UGN-501's underlying properties may have broader applicability across additional solid tumor indications and intends to evaluate future development opportunities based on emerging clinical and translational data.

Urogen Pharma (URGN) is a Great Momentum Stock: Should You Buy? | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Momentum investing revolves around the idea of following a stock's recent trend in either direction. In "long context," investors will be essentially be "buying high, but hoping to sell even higher." With this methodology, taking advantage of trends in a stock's price is key; once a stock establishes a course, it is more than likely to continue moving that way. The goal is that once a stock heads down a fixed path, it will lead to timely and profitable trades.While many investors like to look for momentum in stocks, this can be very tough to define. There is a lot of debate surrounding which metrics are the best to focus on and which are poor quality indicators of future performance. The Zacks Momentum Style Score, part of the Zacks Style Scores, helps address this issue for us. Below, we take a look at Urogen Pharma (URGN - Free Report) , which currently has a Momentum Style Score of A. We also discuss some of the main drivers of the Momentum Style Score, like price change and earnings estimate revisions. It's also important to note that Style Scores work as a complement to the Zacks Rank, our stock rating system that has an impressive track record of outperformance. Urogen Pharma currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy). Our research shows that stocks rated Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) and #2 (Buy) and Style Scores of "A or B" outperform the market over the following one-month period. You can see the current list of Zacks #1 Rank Stocks here >>> Set to Beat the Market?Let's discuss some of the components of the Momentum Style Score for URGN that show why this company shows promise as a solid momentum pick. Looking at a stock's short-term price activity is a great way to gauge if it has momentum, since this can reflect both the current interest in a stock and if buyers or sellers have the upper hand at the moment. It's also helpful to compare a security to its industry; this can show investors the best companies in a particular area. For URGN, shares are up 10.08% over the past week while the Zacks Medical - Biomedical and Genetics industry is up 2.27% over the same time period. Shares are looking quite well from a longer time frame too, as the monthly price change of 37.28% compares favorably with the industry's 10.3% performance as well. While any stock can see a spike in price, it takes a real winner to consistently outperform the market. Shares of Urogen Pharma have increased 84.47% over the past quarter, and have gained 177.32% in the last year. In comparison, the S&P 500 has only moved 14.34% and 21.46%, respectively. Investors should also pay attention to URGN's average 20-day trading volume. Volume is a useful item in many ways, and the 20-day average establishes a good price-to-volume baseline; a rising stock with above average volume is generally a bullish sign, whereas a declining stock on above average volume is typically bearish. URGN is currently averaging 643,028 shares for the last 20 days. Earnings OutlookThe Zacks Momentum Style Score encompasses many things, including estimate revisions and a stock's price movement. Investors should note that earnings estimates are also significant to the Zacks Rank, and a nice path here can be promising. We have recently been noticing this with URGN. Over the past two months, 2 earnings estimates moved higher compared to none lower for the full year. These revisions helped boost URGN's consensus estimate, increasing from -$1.13 to -$0.88 in the past 60 days. Looking at the next fiscal year, 2 estimates have moved upwards while there have been no downward revisions in the same time period. Bottom LineGiven these factors, it shouldn't be surprising that URGN is a #2 (Buy) stock and boasts a Momentum Score of A. If you're looking for a fresh pick that's set to soar in the near-term, make sure to keep Urogen Pharma on your short list. |

Is UroGen Pharma a Stock to Sell After Its Chief Medical Officer Let Go of 10,000 Shares? | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Mark Schoenberg, Chief Medical Officer of UroGen Pharma Ltd. (URGN +2.02%), reported the sale of 10,000 shares of common stock in an open-market transaction on June 22, 2026, according to a SEC Form 4 filing.Transaction summaryMetricValueShares sold (direct)10,000Transaction value$350,100Post-transaction shares (direct)129,763Post-transaction value (direct ownership)~$4.54 millionTransaction value based on SEC Form 4 weighted average purchase price ($35.01); post-transaction value based on June 22, 2026, market close ($34.99). Key questionsHow does this sale compare to Schoenberg's historical trading activity? The 10,000-share sale is in line with his typical open-market trade size, with recent sell-only trades averaging around 9,000 shares; this transaction falls within his established pattern over the past year.What impact does this have on his ownership stake? The transaction reduced Schoenberg's direct holdings by 7.15%, but he continues to hold 129,763 ordinary shares—representing a meaningful ongoing ownership position in UroGen Pharma Ltd.Were any derivative securities or indirect holdings involved? No derivative securities (such as options) or indirect entities (such as trusts or LLCs) were involved; the sale consisted solely of directly held common stock.What does the cadence of recent trades indicate about Schoenberg's strategy? With regular 10b5-1 plan-driven sales and a declining total share base, the moderate trade size reflects both routine liquidity management and a shrinking pool of available shares for further disposition.Company overviewMetricValuePrice (as of market close 6/22/26)$35.01Market capitalization$1.8 billionRevenue (TTM)$140.49 million1-year price change174.3%* 1-year performance calculated using June 30, 2026, as the reference date. Company snapshotDevelops and commercializes specialty therapeutics for urothelial and other specialty cancers, with key products including Jelmyto and Zusduri, and a pipeline focused on non-muscle-invasive bladder and upper tract urothelial cancers.Operates a biotechnology model centered on proprietary drug formulations and sustained-release delivery platforms, generating revenue primarily from product sales and licensing agreements.Targets urology specialists, oncologists, and healthcare providers treating patients with non-muscle invasive urothelial cancers in the United States.UroGen Pharma Ltd. is a biotechnology company specializing in innovative therapies for urothelial cancers, leveraging proprietary hydrogel technology and sustained-release drug formulations. The company’s strategy emphasizes advancing late-stage clinical candidates and expanding its commercial footprint in niche oncology markets. UroGen’s competitive edge lies in its differentiated delivery platforms and focus on unmet medical needs within urologic oncology. What this transaction means for investorsSchoenberg’s recent sale of UroGen stock looks more like an insider supplementing their income than a loss of confidence in the business. After all, they retained the vast majority of their shares. UroGen could have a new treatment option available for patients with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. UGN-103 is similar to the company’s already successful treatment, Zusduri, but it boasts simpler manufacturing and reconstitution processes. In a recent study, UGN-103 produced results in line with those that made Zusduri a success. In the first quarter of 2026, Zusduri sales soared to $29.2 million from just $15.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. Sales of the company’s Jelmyto product for upper tract bladder cancer are expected to rise to a range between $97 million and $101 million from $94 million in 2025. UroGen is still reporting losses, but the losses are shrinking. In the first quarter, the company lost $23.6 million compared to a loss of $43.8 million in the previous year period.

|
Original source text
Mark Schoenberg, Chief Medical Officer of UroGen Pharma Ltd. (URGN +0.75%), reported the sale of 5,222 ordinary shares for a total of approximately $143,000, as disclosed in a SEC Form 4 filing.Transaction summaryMetricValueShares sold (direct)5,222Transaction value$142,561Post-transaction shares (direct)139,763Post-transaction value (direct ownership)~$3.81 millionTransaction value based on SEC Form 4 weighted average purchase price ($27.30); post-transaction value based on the value of post-transaction holdings as reported in the Form 4. Key questionsWhat is the derivative context of this transaction? This filing reflects a two-step process: Schoenberg exercised 10,000 options, then immediately sold 5,222 shares for liquidity, with the remainder held as ordinary shares.How does this sale compare to Schoenberg's historical cadence and capacity? Since May of last year, Schoenberg has made seven sell transactions; as his direct holdings have dropped by 25.81% over the period, average trade sizes have declined in line with reduced available share capacity.Does this transaction impact beneficial ownership or option exposure? Following the sale, Schoenberg reports direct ownership of 139,763 shares and no remaining exercisable options, indicating all option-related equity has either been exercised or lapsed.What is the market context for the transaction? Shares were sold at a weighted average price of around $27.30, near the open and close prices on June 8, 2026, amid a 168.23% one-year total return as of the transaction date.Company overviewMetricValueMarket capitalization1.45 billionRevenue (TTM)$140.49 millionNet income (TTM)-$133.23 million1-year price change147%*1-year performance calculated as of June 12, 2026. Company snapshotOffers proprietary therapeutics for urinary tract cancers, including Jelmyto and a pipeline led by UGN-102 and UGN-301.Generates revenue through the commercialization of specialty oncology drugs, leveraging RTGel technology and strategic licensing agreements.Targets urologists, oncologists, and healthcare institutions treating patients with non-muscle invasive urothelial cancers.UroGen Pharma Ltd. operates as a biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing innovative therapies for urinary tract cancers. The company leverages its proprietary RTGel platform and strategic partnerships to advance a pipeline of specialty oncology drugs targeting underserved patient populations. With a strong emphasis on clinical development and commercialization, UroGen Pharma aims to address significant unmet medical needs in the urology and oncology sectors, positioning itself as a leader in the treatment of non-muscle invasive urothelial cancers. What this transaction means for investorsWith 139,763 shares in his coffers following this transaction, Schoenberg’s interests are still aligned with investors. That said, investors probably want to tread lightly around UroGen Pharma stock. On June 2, the company settled with Teva Pharmaceuticals (TEVA +0.20%), a large generic drug manufacturer, regarding its generic version of Jelmyto. According to the terms, Teva will receive a non-exclusive license to sell generic Jelmyto beginning Sep. 15, 2030. First-quarter Jelmyto sales rose 7% year over year to $21.7 million. The treatment was responsible for about 42.5% of total first-quarter revenue. While Jelmyto could lose ground to generic competition in a few years, the company’s other mitomycin-based therapy, Zusduri, is working hard to offset the losses. First-quarter Zusduri sales jumped 109% higher year over year to $29.2 million. Cory Renauer has no position in any of the stocks mentioned.

Journal of Urology Publishes ENVISION Trial Results Showing 72.2% 24-Month Duration of Response with ZUSDURI | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
72.2% Probability of Remaining Event-Free at 24 Months by Kaplan-Meier Analysis After Achieving Complete Response at Three Months (79.6%)PRINCETON, N.J., March 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced the publication of results from the pivotal Phase 3 ENVISION trial of ZUSDURI™ (mitomycin) for intravesical solution in The Journal of Urology. ZUSDURI is indicated for the treatment of adults with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC). The publication reports a 72.2% probability of remaining event-free at 24 months after complete response (CR) (95% CI: 64%, 79%) as determined by Kaplan-Meier analysis. The CR rate at three months was 79.6%. The median follow-up time after three-month CR was 23.7 months, and the median DOR was not reached. “The publication of these long-term data in The Journal of Urology provides important peer-reviewed validation of the durability of ZUSDURI treatment observed in the ENVISION trial,” said Sandip Prasad, M.D., M.Phil., Director of Genitourinary Surgical Oncology and Vice Chair of Urology at Morristown Medical Center/Atlantic Health System, New Jersey, and Principal Investigator of the ENVISION trial. “For patients who achieved a complete response, the likelihood of remaining event-free through two years was substantial, underscoring the potential of ZUSDURI to change the long-term management of this highly recurrent disease with a six-week induction treatment alone without maintenance. For the first time, adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC have an FDA-approved therapy.” The existing standard of care for LG-IR-NMIBC is transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), a surgical procedure typically performed under general anesthesia. Due to high recurrence rates, patients, who are often elderly with multiple comorbidities, may require repeated TURBT procedures over their lifetime, which can negatively impact quality of life and may be associated with increased health risks. An estimated 59,000 patients with LG-IR-NMIBC experience recurrence annually in the United States. “Now that the 24-month duration of response data from ENVISION are published in a leading urology journal, we’re seeing even stronger validation of ZUSDURI’s clinical impact,” said Mark Schoenberg, Chief Medical Officer, UroGen. “As the first and only approved treatment for recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC, ZUSDURI gives patients a real chance at meaningful, recurrence-free periods. These results suggest we may finally be able to break the long-standing cycle of repeated recurrences and surgeries that has defined care for patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC.” The most common (≥10%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, observed in patients treated with ZUSDURI were dysuria, hematuria, urinary tract infection, increased creatinine, increased potassium, decreased hemoglobin, decreased lymphocytes, decreased neutrophils, increased eosinophils, and increased liver enzymes (AST and ALT). Adverse reactions were primarily mild to moderate in severity. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 12% of patients and included urinary retention (0.8%) and urethral stenosis (0.4%). About ZUSDURI ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is an innovative drug formulation of mitomycin approved for the treatment of adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Utilizing UroGen’s proprietary RTGel® technology (a sustained release, hydrogel-based formulation), ZUSDURI is delivered directly into the bladder by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter in an outpatient setting, thereby enabling the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means. About Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) LG-IR-NMIBC affects around 82,000 people in the U.S. every year and of those, an estimated 59,000 are recurrent. Bladder cancer primarily affects older populations with increased risk of comorbidities, with the median age of diagnosis being 73 years. Guideline recommendations for the management of NMIBC include transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) as the standard of care. Up to 70 percent of NMIBC patients experience at least one recurrence, and LG-IR-NMIBC patients are even more likely to recur and face repeated TURBT procedures.

Original source text
PRINCETON, N.J., April 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced the launch of its “LG-UTUC Luminaries” initiative, recognizing clinicians and institutions demonstrating leadership, expertise, and a commitment to advancing low‑grade upper tract urothelial cancer (LG‑UTUC) care.LG‑UTUC is a rare form of cancer affecting an estimated 6,000-7,000 patients each year in the U.S., which represents approximately 40% of patients diagnosed in the U.S. annually with UTUC. While typically noninvasive, it often recurs and may require repeated endoscopic procedures or radical surgery to remove the kidney and ureter, underscoring a continued need for guideline-recommended kidney‑sparing care approaches. “Through the LG-UTUC Luminaries initiative, we are honored to recognize the clinicians and institutions redefining what is possible for patients living with LG-UTUC,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “By elevating these leaders, we aim to inspire broader adoption of evidence-based, kidney-sparing care, strengthen collaboration across the urology community, and accelerate progress toward a future where patients with this highly recurrent disease have better outcomes and a better care experience.” The LG-UTUC Luminaries initiative recognizes clinicians and institutions working to achieve excellence in LG-UTUC care. Honorees have extensive experience with LG-UTUC and are actively involved in treatment, research, and peer-to-peer education. Institutional recipients are distinguished by established, guideline-aligned care pathways spanning diagnosis, treatment, and long-term surveillance, as well as strong commitments to physician training, research participation, and comprehensive patient support. UroGen recognizes Saum Ghodoussipour, MD, Director, Bladder and Urothelial Cancer Program, Rutgers Cancer Institute, and Associate Professor of Surgery, Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, as the first recipient of this flagship LG-UTUC Luminaries recognition—an honor that will continue to be presented to physicians and institutions dedicated to helping shape the future of kidney-sparing management in LG-UTUC. “I’m truly honored to receive this recognition,” said Dr. Saum Ghodoussipour, Director of the Bladder and Urothelial Cancer Program at Rutgers Cancer Institute and Associate Professor of Surgery at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, NJ. “This distinction reflects the dedication of our entire multidisciplinary team at Rutgers Cancer Institute, whose commitment to advancing education, research, and patient-centered care continues to drive progress for individuals living with LG-UTUC. I’d especially like to recognize Dr. Vignesh Packiam, Director of Clinical and Translational Research in Urologic Oncology and Associate Professor of Surgery at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, whose leadership and contributions have been instrumental in shaping our program. Together, we remain committed to improving outcomes through collaboration, innovation, and a steadfast focus on our patients.” About the LG-UTUC Luminaries Initiative The LG-UTUC Luminaries initiative is UroGen’s effort to recognize and collaborate with leading clinicians and institutions advancing care for patients with low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer. By highlighting clinical leadership and fostering collaboration across the urology community, the initiative supports continued progress in kidney-sparing care and efforts to improve outcomes in this rare and highly recurrent disease.

(Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and provided an overview of recent developments.“2026 is off to a strong start, with expanding usage of ZUSDURI™ (mitomycin) for intravesical solution and clear acceleration across key commercial indicators, including prescriber trial and adoption,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “These trends reflect growing clinical confidence in ZUSDURI as a primary, non-surgical therapy for adults with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC). The early launch momentum is now translating into meaningful revenue growth, providing early validation of our commercial model and reinforcing the blockbuster potential for ZUSDURI. In parallel, we continue to advance our broader pipeline, including next generation products UGN-103 in LG-IR-NMIBC and UGN-104 in low-grade upper tract urothelial carcinoma (LG-UTUC), as well as UGN-501, our investigational, potentially best-in-class, next-generation oncolytic virus. With this momentum, we are well positioned to execute our long-term growth strategy and continue to expand our leadership position in uro-oncology.” Q1 2026 and Recent Business Highlights: ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution: Commercial launch of ZUSDURI continues to accelerate, following its U.S. FDA-approval as the first and only FDA-approved medicine for adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC.The permanent Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System Level II J Code (J9282) became effective on January 1, 2026 and has enabled broader adoption by improving reimbursement clarity and confidence across both hospital and community settings.ZUSDURI achieved net product revenue of $29.2 million in the first quarter of 2026, representing 109% quarter-over-quarter growth. The accelerating growth trend in prescribers, particularly repeat prescribers, reflects increasing health care provider confidence and successful integration of ZUSDURI into routine urology practice. As of March 31, 2026, UroGen reported: 972 activated sites of care256 unique ZUSDURI prescribers103 repeat ZUSDURI prescribers Updated results from the Phase 3 ENVISION trial evaluating ZUSDURI were published online ahead of print in the Journal of Urology. The publication reported that patients who achieved a complete response (CR) three months after the first instillation of ZUSDURI had a 72.2% probability of remaining event-free 24 months after CR (95% CI: 64.1%, 78.8%) as determined by Kaplan-Meier analysis. JELMYTO (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution in LG-UTUC: Generated net product revenue of $21.7 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2026, an increase of approximately 7% over the $20.3 million reported for first quarter of 2025. Next-generation novel mitomycin-based formulations for urothelial cancer UroGen plans to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) for UGN-103 (mitomycin) for recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC in the second half of 2026 with potential FDA approval in 2027. The FDA has agreed with the Company’s regulatory plan to submit the NDA based on the data from the Phase 3 UTOPIA trial. Top line results from UTOPIA were reported in November 2025, demonstrating a 77.8% three-month CR rate (95% CI, 68.3%, 85.5%). For more information on the UTOPIA trial, refer to clinicaltrials.gov/NCT06331299.UGN-103 is a next-generation mitomycin product designed to offer improvements over ZUSDURI, including a shorter manufacturing process and simplified reconstitution procedure. It combines UroGen’s RTGel® technology with a novel mitomycin formulation licensed from medac. UroGen continues to evaluate lifecycle management and pipeline expansion opportunities, including potential applications in high-grade NMIBC settings and adjuvant use of UGN-103 in IR-NMIBC patients.The Phase 3 clinical trial to explore the safety and efficacy of UGN-104 is ongoing and is expected to be fully enrolled by the end of 2026. UGN-104 is a next-generation mitomycin product for LG-UTUC. For more information on the UGN-104 Phase 3 trial (UT002), refer to https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06774131. UGN-501 (investigational next-gen oncolytic virus) for use in high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer UGN-501 is a potent and fast-replicating investigational next-generation oncolytic virus being developed as a locally administered cancer treatment. Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling studies are nearing completion, and UroGen plans to submit an IND in the second quarter of 2026 and initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial in NMIBC by year end. Nonclinical data to date demonstrate cytotoxic activity across a panel of bladder cancer cell lines representing a broad range of tumor stages and grades. The Phase 1 trial will initially evaluate aqueous intravesical administration of UGN-501, and UroGen plans to evaluate delivery using its proprietary RTGel technology, which may enable prolonged dwell time and enhanced local activity. The initial focus is bladder cancer with the potential to expand into additional tumor types beyond the genitourinary system. Expanded Debt Facility with Pharmakon Advisors In February 2026, UroGen entered into an amended and restated loan agreement with Pharmakon Advisors for two additional tranches of senior secured term loans. The first tranche of $200 million was funded at closing to refinance the existing $125 million loan facility and provide additional non-dilutive capital. A second tranche of $50 million may be drawn at the Company's option no later than June 30, 2027, subject to customary conditions. All outstanding loans with Pharmakon Advisors will accrue interest at a fixed rate of 8.25% and be repaid in four equal quarterly payments commencing in the second quarter of 2030. All outstanding loans with Pharmakon Advisors can be prepaid in whole at UroGen's discretion at any time, subject to prepayment premiums, make-whole amounts, as applicable, and fees. American Urological Association Key Opinion Leader Panel to Showcase Real-World Experience with ZUSDURI UroGen will host a KOL panel at the upcoming AUA Annual Meeting focused on real-world experience with ZUSDURI, including patient selection, workflow integration, treatment patterns, and patient outcomes. The event will feature leading urologists highlighting the role of ZUSDURI as a primary, non-surgical treatment option in recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk NMIBC and will be webcast and accessible through the Company’s website. To register click here. First quarter 2026 Financial Results Revenue: Total revenue was $51.0 million in the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared with $20.3 million in the first quarter of 2025. Year-over-year revenue growth of 152% was primarily driven by the commercial launch of ZUSDURI and JELMYTO revenue growth. Research and Development (R&D) Expenses: R&D expenses were $15.6 million in the first quarter of 2026, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $0.8 million. This compares to $19.9 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $0.6 million, for the same period in 2025. The decrease in R&D expenses was primarily attributable to the acquisition of UGN-501 in the first quarter of 2025 and ZUSDURI manufacturing costs, which were recognized as R&D expense in the first quarter of 2025 prior to receiving FDA approval. Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses: SG&A expenses were $51.5 million in the first quarter of 2026, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $3.9 million. This compares to $35.0 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $2.5 million, for the same period in 2025. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily attributable to ZUSDURI commercial activities, including the sales force expansion following ZUSDURI approval and higher brand marketing expenses, an increase in overall commercial operation costs, and higher advisory costs, including fees associated with the Pharmakon Advisors debt refinancing in the first quarter of 2026. Financing on Prepaid Forward Obligation: UroGen reported non-cash financing expense related to the prepaid forward obligation to RTW Investments of $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared with $4.6 million in the same period in 2025. Interest Expense on Long-term Debt: Interest expense related to long-term debt was $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $4.1 million in the same period in 2025. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to the additional borrowings of $75.0 million in the first quarter of 2026 in connection with the Pharmakon refinancing of long-term debt, offset by the lower interest rate. Net Loss: UroGen reported a net loss of $23.6 million or ($0.47) per basic and diluted share in the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared with a net loss of $43.8 million or ($0.92) per basic and diluted share in the first quarter of 2025. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities: As of March 31, 2026, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $140.3 million. 2026 JELMYTO Revenue and Company Operating Expense Guidance: The Company continues to expect 2026 net product revenue for JELMYTO to be in the range of $97 million to $101 million. This implies a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 3% to 7% over the $94 million of JELMYTO revenue reported in 2025. The Company is not providing full-year 2026 revenue guidance for ZUSDURI at this time, as the product remains in the early stages of its commercial launch. The Company continues to expect full-year 2026 operating expenses to be in the range of $240 million to $250 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $20 million to $24 million. Conference Call & Webcast Information: Members of UroGen’s management team will host a live conference call and webcast today at 10:00 AM Eastern Time to review UroGen’s financial results and provide a general business update.

About JELMYTO JELMYTO® (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution is a mitomycin-containing reverse thermal gel containing 4 mg mitomycin per mL gel indicated for the treatment of adult patients with LG-UTUC. It is recommended for primary treatment of biopsy-proven LG-UTUC in patients deemed appropriate candidates for renal-sparing therapy. JELMYTO is a viscous liquid when cooled and becomes a semi-solid gel at body temperature. The drug slowly dissolves over four to six hours after instillation and is removed from the urinary tract by normal urine flow and voiding. It is approved for administration in a retrograde manner via ureteral catheter or antegrade through nephrostomy tube. The delivery system allows the initial liquid to coat and conform to the upper urinary tract anatomy. The eventual semisolid gel allows for chemoablative therapy to remain in the collecting system for four to six hours without immediately being diluted or washed away by urine flow.

Urogen Pharma (URGN) Reports Q1 Loss, Beats Revenue Estimates | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Urogen Pharma (URGN - Free Report) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.47 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.56. This compares to a loss of $0.92 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +16.44%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this company would post a loss of $0.66 per share when it actually produced a loss of $0.54, delivering a surprise of +18.18%. Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times. Urogen Pharma, which belongs to the Zacks Medical - Biomedical and Genetics industry, posted revenues of $50.96 million for the quarter ended March 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 16.96%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $20.25 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates two times over the last four quarters. The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call. Urogen Pharma shares have added about 1.8% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 6%. What's Next for Urogen Pharma?While Urogen Pharma has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock? There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately. Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions. Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Urogen Pharma was favorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to outperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is -$0.48 on $55.25 million in revenues for the coming quarter and -$1.45 on $249.47 million in revenues for the current fiscal year. Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Medical - Biomedical and Genetics is currently in the bottom 40% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1. One other stock from the same industry, Guardant Health (GH - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended March 2026. The results are expected to be released on May 7. This provider of oncology testing services is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.47 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +4.1%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.8% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. Guardant Health's revenues are expected to be $278.52 million, up 36.9% from the year-ago quarter. |

Urogen Pharma (URGN) Just Flashed Golden Cross Signal: Do You Buy? | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
From a technical perspective, Urogen Pharma (URGN - Free Report) is looking like an interesting pick, as it just reached a key level of support. URGN's 50-day simple moving average crossed above its 200-day simple moving average, which is known as a "golden cross" in the trading world.A golden cross is a technical chart pattern that can signify a potential bullish breakout. It's formed from a crossover involving a security's short-term moving average breaking above a longer-term moving average, with the most common moving averages being the 50-day and the 200-day, since bigger time periods tend to form stronger breakouts. Golden crosses have three key stages that investors look out for. It starts with a downtrend in a stock's price that eventually bottoms out, followed by the stock's shorter moving average crossing over its longer moving average and triggering a trend reversal. The final stage is when a stock continues the upward climb to higher prices. This kind of chart pattern is the opposite of a death cross, which is a technical event that suggests future bearish price movement. Shares of URGN have been moving higher over the past four weeks, up 36.3%. Plus, the company is currently a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank, suggesting that URGN could be poised for a breakout. The bullish case solidifies once investors consider URGN's positive earnings outlook. For the current quarter, no earnings estimate has been cut compared to 3 revisions higher in the past 60 days. The Zacks Consensus Estimate has increased too. With a winning combination of earnings estimate revisions and hitting a key technical level, investors should keep their eye on URGN for more gains in the near future. |

ZUSDURI Median Duration of Response Still Not Reached with 64.5% 36-month Duration of Response in the Pivotal ENVISION Trial | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
64.5% Probability of Remaining Event-Free at Three Years by Kaplan-Meier Analysis After Achieving Complete Response at Three MonthsFirst and Only FDA-Approved Medicine for Recurrent Low-Grade Intermediate-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer PRINCETON, N.J., May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced a 36-month duration of response (DOR) of 64.5% (95% CI, 54.6% - 72.8%) by Kaplan-Meier estimate in patients who achieved a complete response (CR) at three months (79.6%) in the pivotal Phase 3 ENVISION trial of ZUSDURI™ (mitomycin) for intravesical solution. At a median follow-up of 35.5 months, the median DOR had not been reached. These data demonstrate that a substantial proportion of complete responders remained disease-free at three years, and durable outcomes were achieved without the need for maintenance therapy.“This update from the pivotal ENVISION trial shows that many patients who achieve a complete response with ZUSDURI remain disease-free through three years,” said Sandip Prasad, M.D., M.Phil., Director of Genitourinary Surgical Oncology and Vice Chair of Urology at Morristown Medical Center/Atlantic Health System, NJ, and Principal Investigator of the ENVISION trial. “Among patients who achieved a complete response, the event rate over time has remained stable. Importantly, ZUSDURI’s durability was achieved without maintenance therapy, supporting a treatment approach that can provide lasting disease control while reducing ongoing treatment burden for patients.” As a non-surgical, in-office treatment, ZUSDURI offers patients an opportunity to achieve meaningful disease- and treatment-free living without the burden of repeated TURBT procedures under general anesthesia. The current standard of care for LG-IR-NMIBC is transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), a surgical procedure typically performed under general anesthesia. Due to high recurrence rates following surgery, patients often undergo multiple TURBTs over their lifetime, leading to a cycle of repeat procedures that can impact quality of life and increase cumulative risk, particularly in older patients with comorbidities. An estimated 59,000 patients with LG-IR-NMIBC recur annually. “The ENVISION 36-month DOR data reinforce ZUSDURI’s potential to shift the treatment paradigm for recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC,” said Mark Schoenberg, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, UroGen. “By delivering durable responses without maintenance therapy, ZUSDURI provides an opportunity to move beyond the cycle of repeated surgical interventions and toward a more durable, lower-burden treatment approach over time.” The most common (≥ 10%) adverse reactions (ARs), including laboratory abnormalities, that occurred in patients were dysuria, increased potassium, increased creatinine, decreased hemoglobin, increased eosinophils, increased aspartate aminotransferase, increased alanine aminotransferase, decreased lymphocytes, urinary tract infection, decreased neutrophils, and hematuria. ARs were mainly mild to moderate. Serious ARs occurred in 12% of patients, including urinary retention (0.8%) and urethral stenosis (0.4%). About ZUSDURI ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is an innovative drug formulation of mitomycin, approved for the treatment of adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Utilizing UroGen’s proprietary RTGel® technology (a sustained release, hydrogel-based formulation), ZUSDURI is delivered directly into the bladder by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter in an outpatient setting, thereby enabling the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means. About Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) LG-IR-NMIBC affects around 82,000 people in the United States every year and of those, an estimated 59,000 are recurrent. Bladder cancer primarily affects older populations with increased risk of comorbidities, with the median age of diagnosis being 73 years. Guideline recommendations for the management of NMIBC include TURBT as the standard of care. Up to 70 percent of NMIBC patients experience at least one recurrence, and LG-IR-NMIBC patients are even more likely to recur and face repeated TURBT procedures. Learn more about non-muscle invasive bladder cancer at www.BladderCancerAnswers.com. About ENVISION The Phase 3 ENVISION trial is a single-arm, multinational, multicenter pivotal study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution as a chemoablative therapy in adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. The Phase 3 ENVISION trial completed target enrollment with 240 patients across 56 sites. Study participants received six once-weekly intravesical instillations of ZUSDURI. The primary endpoint evaluated the CR rate three months after the first instillation, and the key secondary endpoint evaluates durability over time in patients who achieved a CR at the three-month assessment. Learn more about the Phase 3 ENVISION trial at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05243550). About UroGen Pharma Ltd.

UroGen Reports 94.5% Six-Month Duration of Response in Phase 3 UTOPIA Trial, Advancing UGN-103 Toward Potential Approval in Recurrent Low-Grade Intermediate-Risk NMIBC | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
PRINCETON, N.J., May 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotechnology company focused on transforming the treatment of urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced UGN-103 achieved a 94.5% (95% CI: 86.1, 97.9) durability of response (DOR) at six months by Kaplan-Meier estimate, in the ongoing Phase 3 UTOPIA trial of UGN-103 (mitomycin) for intravesical solution in patients with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC). The six-month results from UTOPIA are generally consistent with the 91.9% (95% CI: 86.9, 95.0) six-month DOR observed with ZUSDURI™ (mitomycin) for intravesical therapy in its pivotal ENVISION trial. ZUSDURI is the first and only treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC.Based on the consistency of UTOPIA data with the results of the ENVISION trial studying ZUSDURI in patients meeting the same eligibility criteria and alignment with the FDA, UroGen remains on track to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) for UGN-103 in the third quarter of 2026. “The durability of response observed at six months with UGN-103 in the UTOPIA trial is generally consistent with that observed in the pivotal ENVISION trial of ZUSDURI, and highlights the potential to further advance care for adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC,” said Abishek Srivastava, MD, Urologic Oncologist at Atlantic Urology Clinics, Myrtle Beach, SC, START Center for Cancer Research, Carolinas and lead investigator of the UTOPIA trial. “UGN-103 builds on a proven therapeutic approach with meaningful innovations that could help enhance how we deliver this therapy in clinical practice.” UGN-103 is designed to build on the clinical and commercial foundation of ZUSDURI. The benefits of UGN-103 include a more streamlined manufacturing process and simplified reconstitution, while preserving the innovative and proven RTGel® technology that enables sustained drug exposure at tumor sites in the bladder. “These clinical data reinforce the potential of UGN-103 to become a new standard of care for adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “With FDA alignment on our regulatory path, we are advancing with urgency toward NDA submission. We believe UGN-103 represents a significant opportunity to build on our leadership in uro-oncology, expand our commercial portfolio, and drive long-term growth.” UroGen holds U.S. patents covering the combination of its proprietary RTGel technology with medac’s licensed lyophilized mitomycin formulation, as well as the use of UGN-103 in LG-IR-NMIBC, with intellectual property protection expected to extend into December 2041. About UTOPIA The UTOPIA trial is a single-arm, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of UGN-103 in 99 patients across global sites. Enrolled patients received 75 mg of UGN-103 via intravesical instillation in an outpatient setting once weekly for six weeks. The primary endpoint is CR rate at three months, with responders entering a follow-up phase of up to 12 months to assess DOR. For more information on the UTOPIA study, please visit https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06331299. About UGN-103 In January 2024, UroGen entered into a licensing and supply agreement with medac to develop UGN-103 for recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. UGN-103 is designed to reinforce and extend the clinical and commercial profile of ZUSDURI, the first and only FDA-approved treatment for adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. The program maintains UroGen’s innovative and proven RTGel technology, enabling sustained mitomycin exposure in the bladder, while incorporating next-generation enhancements, including a more streamlined manufacturing process and simplified reconstitution to support improved ease of use in clinical practice. UroGen holds U.S. patents covering the combination of its proprietary RTGel technology with medac’s licensed lyophilized mitomycin formulation, as well as the use of UGN-103 in LG-IR-NMIBC, with intellectual property protection expected to extend into December 2041. About ZUSDURI ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is an innovative drug formulation of mitomycin approved for the treatment of adults with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Utilizing UroGen’s proprietary RTGel technology (a sustained release, hydrogel-based formulation), ZUSDURI is delivered directly into the bladder by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter in an outpatient setting, thereby enabling the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means. About Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) LG-IR-NMIBC affects around 82,000 people in the United States every year and of those, an estimated 59,000 are recurrent. Bladder cancer primarily affects older populations with increased risk of comorbidities, with the median age of diagnosis being 73 years. Guideline recommendations for the management of NMIBC include transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) as the standard of care. Up to 70 percent of NMIBC patients experience at least one recurrence, and LG-IR-NMIBC patients are even more likely to recur and face repeated TURBT procedures. Learn more about NMIBC at www.BladderCancerAnswers.com. About UroGen Pharma Ltd.

UroGen Announces Agreement Resolving Patent Litigation Relating to JELMYTO® (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution | FMP Stock News | |
|
Original source text
Agreement reinforces the value of UroGen’s innovation and reflects the strength of the Company’s intellectual property portfolioTeva will be granted a non-exclusive license to sell its generic version of JELMYTO beginning on September 15, 2030, if approved by the FDA PRINCETON, N.J., June 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UroGen Pharma Ltd. (Nasdaq: URGN), a biotechnology company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers, today announced that it has entered into a settlement and license agreement (the “Agreement”’) with Teva Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Teva Pharmaceuticals, USA, Inc. (collectively, “Teva”). This Agreement resolves the patent litigation UroGen initiated in response to Teva’s submission of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) seeking approval to market a generic version of JELMYTO® (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution prior to the expiration of the relevant Company patents. Please note, that the Teva ANDA has not received tentative approval from the FDA, according to the Agency’s public database.Under the terms of the Agreement, UroGen will grant Teva a non-exclusive license to sell its generic version of JELMYTO beginning on September 15, 2030, if approved by the FDA, unless certain limited circumstances customarily included in these types of agreements occur. In accordance with the Agreement, the parties will ask the court to dismiss the pending patent litigation with prejudice. “We believe this resolution underscores the innovation behind our RTGel® technology and the strength of our intellectual property portfolio,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “We look forward to continuing to execute on our mission to transform paradigms in uro-oncology with our innovative treatments.” JELMYTO has regulatory exclusivity through April 15, 2027, and is covered by Orange Book-listed patents expiring on January 20, 2031. The negotiated license date preserves nearly all of this patent protection period, reflecting the strength of the Company’s intellectual property. As required by law, the companies will submit the Agreement to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and U.S. Department of Justice for review. About JELMYTO JELMYTO® (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution is a mitomycin-containing reverse thermal gel containing 4 mg mitomycin per mL gel approved for the treatment of adult patients with LG-UTUC. JELMYTO is a viscous liquid when cooled and becomes a semi-solid gel at body temperature. The drug slowly dissolves over four to six hours after instillation and is removed from the urinary tract by normal urine flow and voiding. It is approved for administration in a retrograde manner via ureteral catheter or antegrade through a nephrostomy tube. The delivery system allows the initial liquid to coat and conform to the upper urinary tract anatomy. The eventual semisolid gel allows for chemoablative therapy to remain in the collecting system for four to six hours without immediately being diluted or washed away by urine flow. About Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer Urothelial cancer is the ninth most common cancer globally and the eighth most lethal neoplasm in men in the U.S. Between five percent and ten percent of primary urothelial cancers originate in the ureter or renal pelvis and are collectively referred to as UTUC. In the U.S., there are approximately 6,000 - 7,000 new or recurrent LG-UTUC patients annually. Most cases are diagnosed in patients over 70 years old, and these older patients often have multiple comorbidities. There are limited treatment options for UTUC, with the most common being endoscopic surgery or nephroureterectomy (removal of the entire kidney and ureter). Treatment with endoscopic surgery can be associated with a high rate of recurrence and relapse. About UroGen Pharma Ltd. UroGen is a biotech company dedicated to developing and commercializing innovative solutions that treat urothelial and specialty cancers because patients deserve better options. UroGen has developed RTGel® reverse-thermal hydrogel, a proprietary sustained-release, hydrogel-based platform technology that has the potential to improve the therapeutic profiles of existing drugs. UroGen’s sustained release technology is designed to enable longer exposure of the urinary tract tissue to medications, making local therapy a potentially more effective treatment option. Our first product is approved to treat low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer, and our second product is approved for adult patients with recurrent LG-IR-NMIBC. Both products are designed to ablate tumors by non-surgical means. UroGen is headquartered in Princeton, NJ with operations in Israel.
