Esperion Settles Patent Litigation with Micro Labs, Preventing Generic NEXLETOL Launch Before 2040

– These cardiovascular medicines have the potential to address a significant unmet medical need for over half a million Canadians
– HLS will leverage existing organizational capabilities and commercial infrastructure
– Already approved and commercially available in the U.S. and Europe,&nbsp;NEXLETOL/NEXLIZET are under regulatory review in Canada with a decision expected later this year
– Deal terms include $1 million paid upfront and additional milestone payments tied to achievement of regulatory, pricing, reimbursement and commercial sales objectives
TORONTO, May 8, 2025 /CNW/ - HLS Therapeutics Inc. ("HLS" or the "Company") (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLS#TSX">HLS</a>), a pharmaceutical company focused on addressing unmet needs in the treatment of psychiatric disorders and cardiovascular disease, announces that it has entered into an agreement with Esperion Therapeutics Inc. ("Esperion") (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESPR#NASDAQ">ESPR</a>) to in-license and commercialize NEXLETOL&#xAE; (bempedoic acid) and NEXLIZET&#xAE; (bempedoic acid and ezetimibe) in Canada. All financial figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise stated.
In Q4 2024, Esperion submitted New Drug Submissions to Health Canada for both NEXLETOL and NEXLIZET1. Under this agreement, HLS will be responsible for obtaining Health Canada approval, which is expected by the end of 2025. NEXLETOL and NEXLIZET are oral medications currently available in the U.S. and several European countries. Initially approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2020 to help reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ("LDL-C") levels, their labels were expanded in 2024 to include broader indications for cardiovascular risk reduction in patients who are unable to take recommended statin therapy, supported by data from the CLEAR Outcomes trial.
Current estimates suggest there are over half a million Canadians who could potentially benefit from NEXLETOL or NEXLIZET. This includes patients with elevated LDL-C levels and who are either statin intolerant or who are not at their LDL-C goal despite being on combination therapy with statins and ezetimibe. &nbsp;&nbsp;

– Expands Development Portfolio with Introduction of a Novel Program Targeting PSC –
– Confirms Highly Specific Allosteric ACLY Inhibitor Shown to Reduce Liver Injury, Inflammation and Fibrosis Across Multiple PSC-Relevant Pre-Clinical Models –
– Demonstrates Internal R&amp;D Capabilities with Wholly Owned, Next-Generation Candidates Targeting Liver and Kidney Disease –
– Esperion to Webcast R&amp;D Day Event Today at 9:00 a.m. ET –
Esperion (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESPR#NASDAQ">ESPR</a>) today announced that the Company plans to highlight new research supporting its lead development candidates for the treatment of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), a rare and progressive liver disease, today at 9:00 a.m. ET in New York City. A live webcast of the event will also be available. These candidates are novel allosteric inhibitors of ATP citrate lyase (ACLY), a key metabolic enzyme with emerging relevance in hepatic inflammation and fibrosis.
"We are leveraging our deep expertise in ACLY biology to expand our portfolio beyond NEXLETOL&#xAE; (bempedoic acid)/NEXLIZET&#xAE; (bempedoic acid and ezetimibe) and to address the urgent needs of patients living with PSC," said Sheldon Koenig, Chief Executive Officer at Esperion. "Our lead candidates, including ESP-1336, are promising, potential first-in-class allosteric ACLY inhibitors, well-characterized with significant preclinical data, and represent a natural extension of our metabolic franchise. PSC is a rare and progressive liver disease with no approved therapies proven to slow or halt its progression. Our next-generation ACLY inhibitor discovery program was purpose-built to improve potency, selectivity, and guide indication and patient population selection through data-driven innovation."
"ACLY is a promising target in hepatic disease, given its central role in metabolic regulation," said David E. Cohen MD, PhD, Chief, Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Endoscopy, Brigham and Women's Hospital. "By modulating acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) levels in multiple hepatobiliary cell types, these inhibitors may disrupt key disease-driving pathways in PSC, offering a potentially transformative approach to treatment."
