2023 Performance and Future Outlook

Weiss also noted the expansion of BRIUMVI's clinical development and the initiation of its European commercialization through its partner, Neuraxpharm.
The company's financial achievements, particularly the significant revenue from BRIUMVI, underscore the potential of its commercial strategy and the market's acceptance of its novel therapy. The biotechnology industry closely watches such revenue milestones, as they reflect both the commercial viability of new treatments and the company's ability to execute on its strategic goals.
