01 Other Events

Item 8.01 Other Events. On December 29, 2025, the Company announced the results from the Phase 3 Orbit and Cosmic studies evaluating setrusumab (UX143) in pediatric and young adult patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). Neither study achieved statistical significance against the primary endpoints of reduction in annualized clinical fracture rate compared to placebo or bisphosphonates, respectively. Both studies achieved their secondary endpoints of improvements in bone mineral density (BMD) against comparators (placebo and bisphosphonates) with strong statistical significance. There was no change in the safety profile observed. ORBIT and COSMIC bone mineral density (BMD) improvements In the Orbit study, participants experienced statistically significant and substantial improvements in BMD compared to placebo, at levels consistent with the treatment effect observed in Phase 2 studies. These BMD changes were not accompanied by a corresponding reduction in annualized fracture rates and there was a low fracture rate in the placebo group. In the pediatric Cosmic study, patients had a substantially higher baseline fracture rate compared to the patients enrolled in Orbit. In this younger patient population, meaningful improvements in BMD were associated with a reduction in annualized fracture rate for setrusumab treated patients over bisphosphonate treated patients, though the reduction did not meet statistical significance. Additional analyses on the data across both studies are being conducted, including in other bone health and clinical endpoints beyond fractures.
