PRINCETON, N.J., Nov. 06, 2025 (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 third quarter ended September 30, 2025, and provided an overview of recent developments.
“Our launch of ZUSDURI, the first and only FDA-approved medicine for adults with recurrent low-grade intermediate-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, continues to gain momentum,” said Liz Barrett, President and Chief Executive Officer of UroGen. “Despite slower than anticipated new patient starts, we are encouraged by the patient demand reflected in our patient enrollment forms. Strong enthusiasm and engagement from urologists, growing physician awareness, and broad reimbursement coverage are expanding patient access. Early launch indicators reflect robust interest and confidence in ZUSDURI’s clinical value, reinforcing our belief in the significant commercial opportunity ahead and our ability to fully capitalize on it. The strong complete-response rate for UGN-103 and the FDA’s agreement with our NDA submission plan supports our strategy for the next-generation medicines that are expected to enhance supply, improve manufacturing and preparation efficiencies and provide opportunity for lifecycle extensions. With a strong financial position, we are committed to driving a successful launch of ZUSDURI and advancing our pipeline in ways that deliver lasting impact for patients and long-term value for shareholders.”
Q3 2025 and Recent Business Highlights:
ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution:
JELMYTO (mitomycin) for pyelocalyceal solution in low-grade upper tract urothelial cancer (LG-UTUC)
Next-generation novel mitomycin-based formulation for urothelial cancers
UGN-301 (zalifrelimab), an anti-CTLA4 antibody for use in high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
UGN-501 (investigational next-gen oncolytic virus) for use in high-grade non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (
Third quarter 2025 Financial Results
Revenue: Total revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025 were $27.5 million. JELMYTO generated net product revenue of $25.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $25.2 million (which included $2.6 million of CREATES Act sales) in the same period of 2024, reflecting approximately 13% underlying year-over-year demand driven revenue growth. ZUSDURI achieved net product revenue of $1.8 million in its first quarter on the market, with October 2025 preliminary demand revenue estimate of $4.5 million demonstrating growing early commercial momentum.
R&D Expenses: Research and development (R&D) expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $14.0 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $0.7 million as compared to $11.4 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $0.6 million, for the same period in 2024. The increase in R&D expenses of $2.6 million was primarily driven by costs associated with the Phase 3 UTOPIA trial for UGN-103, partially offset by lower clinical trial costs, manufacturing costs, and regulatory expenses in connection with ZUSDURI.
SG&A Expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the third quarter of 2025 were $37.6 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $2.3 million. This compares to $28.9 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $2.9 million, for the same period in 2024. The increase in SG&A expenses of $8.7 million was primarily driven by ZUSDURI commercial launch activities as well as 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 $4.6 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $5.9 million in the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by changes in underlying assumptions for remeasuring the effective rate.
Interest Expense on Long-Term Debt: Interest expense related to the $125 million term loan facility with funds managed by Pharmakon Advisors was $3.4 million in the third quarter of 2025, compared to $2.7 million in the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to the interest expense on the third tranche of the loan that was funded in September 2024.
Net Loss: UroGen reported a net loss of $33.3 million or ($0.69) per basic and diluted share in the third quarter of 2025 compared with a net loss of $23.7 million or ($0.51) per basic and diluted share in the same period in 2024.
Cash and Equivalents: As of September 30, 2025, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $127.4 million.
For further details on the Company’s financials, refer to Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC.
2025 JELMYTO Revenue and Company Operating Expense Guidance: Guidance for full-year 2025 net product revenues for JELMYTO remains unchanged and is expected to be in the range of $94 to $98 million. This implies a year-over-year growth rate of approximately 8% to 12% over the $87.4 million in demand driven JELMYTO sales in 2024, which excludes the $3.0 million in CREATES Act sales reported in 2024. Continue to expect full-year 2025 operating expenses to be in the range of $215 to $225 million, including non-cash share-based compensation expense of $11 million to $14 million.

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 in an out-patient procedure by a trained healthcare professional using a urinary catheter to enable the treatment of tumors by non-surgical means.
APPROVED USE FOR ZUSDURI
ZUSDURI (mitomycin) for intravesical solution is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with a type of cancer of the lining of the bladder called low-grade intermediate risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (LG-IR-NMIBC) after previously receiving bladder surgery to remove tumor that did not work or is no longer working.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
You should not receive ZUSDURI if you have a hole or tear (perforation) of your bladder or if you have had an allergic reaction to mitomycin or to any of the ingredients in ZUSDURI.
Before receiving ZUSDURI, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
How will I receive ZUSDURI?
After receiving ZUSDURI:
The most common side effects of ZUSDURI include: increased blood creatinine levels, increased blood potassium levels, trouble with urination, decreased red blood cell counts, increase in certain blood liver tests, increased or decreased white blood cell counts, urinary tract infection, and blood in your urine.

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.
APPROVED USE FOR JELMYTO
JELMYTO® is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with a type of cancer of the lining of the upper urinary tract including the kidney called low-grade Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer (LG-UTUC).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
You should not receive JELMYTO if you have a hole or tear (perforation) of your bladder or upper urinary tract.
Before receiving JELMYTO, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, including if you:
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088. You may also report side effects to UroGen Pharma at 1-855-987-6436.
Please see JELMYTO Full Prescribing Information, including the Patient Information, for additional information.
