Q1 2025 commentary and recent highlights
Telix Managing Director and Group CEO, Dr. Christian Behrenbruch, stated, “Illuccix has continued its momentum, gaining market share and maintaining price stability in a competitive landscape. Telix is the only company with two FDA[4]-approved PSMA-PET[5] imaging agents – Illuccix and Gozellix – enabling us to broaden patient reach and maximize choice for our customers. The expansion of our commercial portfolio and launches of Illuccix into new international markets provides a foundation to diversify and grow revenue globally, while we continue to deliver on multiple catalysts in our pipeline. This quarter also includes the first two months of revenue from RLS since completion of our acquisition, highlighting its potential as a platform to drive further growth. This strategic acquisition has significantly expanded our manufacturing footprint in the U.S., which we believe is an increasingly important consideration amid changing global trade dynamics.”
Therapeutics business
- ProstACT™ Global, the Phase 3 trial of TLX591 (177Lu-rosopatamab tetraxetan), Telix’s prostate cancer therapy candidate, continues to recruit and remains on track to deliver a Part 1 readout (safety and dosimetry) in H1 2025.
- IPAX-Linz, a Phase 2 investigator-initiated trial of TLX101 (131I-iodofalan, or 131I-IPA), Telix’s brain cancer therapy candidate, reported positive preliminary results. Early efficacy from IPAX-1 was substantiated and TLX101 was found to be well tolerated in combination with external beam radiation therapy. No serious adverse events were reported in patients at first or second recurrence with high-grade gliomas (HGG), including glioblastoma, often after multiple resections[6].
- Following consultations with the FDA, the Company remains on track to submit Investigational New Drug (IND) applications to enable pivotal trials for TLX101 and Telix’s kidney cancer therapy candidate (TLX250, 177Lu-DOTA-girentuximab) to commence this year, subject to regulatory approval.
- The first patient was dosed in the Phase 1 ZOLAR[7] trial of TLX300-CDx (89Zr-olaratumab), which aims to validate the use of olaratumab, an antibody exclusively licensed from Eli Lilly and Company (Lilly), as a potential treatment for advanced, metastatic soft tissue sarcoma.
- Telix completed the acquisition of a suite of clinically validated FAP[8]-targeting therapeutic and precision medicine (diagnostic) radiopharmaceutical candidates. Telix has added the lead FAP-targeting therapeutic compound to its pipeline under the designation TLX400.
- Telix acquired the therapeutics assets of antibody engineering company ImaginAb, Inc. The transaction included a pipeline of next-generation therapeutic candidates, a proprietary novel biologics technology platform, and a protein engineering and discovery research facility in Los Angeles, California[9], staffed by a talented team of discovery, protein engineering and radiopharmaceutical development experts who joined the Company on the ImaginAb acquisition closing.
- Telix announced that it has developed and validated a breakthrough generator technology for the production of lead-212 (212Pb) and successfully completed first production of this promising alpha-emitting therapeutic radioisotope[10]. The new generator technology, developed internally by Telix’s IsoTherapeutics team, significantly increases the amount of radioactivity, yield and shelf life compared to currently available 212Pb generators and provides an additional isotope supply for Telix’s next-generation targeted alpha therapy program.
Precision Medicine business
- On 21 March 2025, the FDA approved the New Drug Application (NDA) for Gozellix®[11], Telix’s next-generation PSMA-PET imaging agent for prostate cancer that provides a longer shelf life of up to six hours and an extended distribution radius compared to existing gallium-based imaging products.
- Commercial launch of Gozellix® in the U.S. is expected to commence during Q2 2025 where Telix has appointed Cardinal Health, Inc. (Cardinal Health)[12] and RLS Radiopharmacies as distribution partners.
- Telix received a positive decision on the decentralized Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) for Illuccix® in the European Economic Area (EEA)[13]. Illuccix® also received MAA approval in the United Kingdom (UK) and Brazil. Country level approvals are now being implemented in the EEA, with approvals to date granted in Denmark, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden[14].
- Illuccix® is now commercially available in Brazil, under the joint venture with R2PHARMA (Telix Innovations Brazil, Ltda.), and commercial launches will commence in the UK and in European markets where Illuccix® has received approval during Q2 2025.
- The NDA for TLX101-CDx (Pixclara®15, 18F-floretyrosine or 18F-FET), Telix’s brain cancer imaging candidate, continues to progress with a PDUFA goal date of 26 April 2025.
Telix Manufacturing Solutions (TMS)
- In April, the TMS Brussels South facility (Seneffe) received notice of its GMP accreditation, enabling first commercial radiopharmaceutical dose production.
- Telix reaffirms that it does not expect any material impact on its business or supply chain as a result of the international trade tariffs announced by the U.S. government on 2 April 2025 (subject to a three-month delay) or the subsequent inclusion of pharmaceuticals. Telix has an extensive U.S.-based manufacturing and distribution infrastructure, including third-party manufacturing sites and radiopharmacy partner networks, for the production and delivery of its FDA-approved products Illuccix® and Gozellix®[17].
- Telix also notes that it does not rely on rare earth elements of the kind utilized in semi-conductor supply chains and is therefore not impacted by the recent export controls imposed by the Chinese government this month.
Board renewal
Telix announced new Director appointments as part of a Board succession planning and renewal process[18]:
- H Kevin McCann AO will retire as a Non-Executive Director (NED) and Board Chairman on 21 May 2025, immediately following Telix’s Annual General Meeting.
- Tiffany Olson will be appointed Board Chair following Mr. McCann’s retirement.
- Marie McDonald joined the Board as a NED, effective 3 March 2025 and, on appointment, immediately succeeded Mr. McCann as Chair of the People Committee.
- Anne Whitaker joined the Board as a NED, effective 7 April 2025, and was appointed as a member of the Audit and Risk Committee and the People Committee.
