Over recent months Ascendis has reported strong commercial growth and pipeline progress.

The company outlined a 2026 roadmap, including TransCon PTH, TransCon CNP and TransCon hGH programs, and participated in major conferences like the 44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference. Today’s TD Cowen conference appearance fits this pattern of ongoing investor outreach and visibility events.
