LONDON, July 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (Nasdaq: KNSA) (Kiniksa), a biopharmaceutical company developing and commercializing novel therapies for diseases with unmet need, with a focus on cardiovascular indications, today reported second quarter 2025 financial results and recent portfolio execution.

鈥淥ur robust commercial performance in the second quarter was driven by expanding ARCALYST penetration across the recurrent pericarditis population, supported by growth among both new and repeat prescribers. For 2025, we鈥檝e raised our ARCALYST net sales guidance to between $625 and $640 million from between $590 and $605 million. This represents 52% year-over-year growth at the midpoint, highlighting the ongoing strength of the ARCALYST commercialization more than four years after launch,鈥� said Sanj K. Patel, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Kiniksa. 鈥淚n addition, we are excited that the Phase 2 dose-focusing portion of the pivotal Phase 2/3 clinical trial of KPL-387 in recurrent pericarditis is now recruiting. We expect data from this part of the study in the second half of 2026 and potential market entry in the 2028/2029 timeframe.鈥�
