Historical Context
| Date | Event | Sentiment | Move | Catalyst |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 05 | Earnings date notice | Neutral | -2.8% | Announcement of Q4 2025 earnings release date and conference call details. |
| Feb 05 | Inducement grants | Neutral | -2.8% | Inducement stock options and RSUs granted to new employees under Nasdaq rules. |
| Jan 23 | M&A acquisition | Positive | +0.6% | Completion of Astria Therapeutics acquisition, adding navenibart to HAE franchise. |
| Jan 12 | Revenue update | Positive | -4.2% | Preliminary 2025 ORLADEYO revenue beat prior guidance with strong growth metrics. |
| Jan 06 | Inducement grant | Neutral | +2.3% | RSU grant to a new hire as inducement equity with multi‑year vesting schedule. |
Recent history shows mixed reactions, including a selloff after a strong ORLADEYO revenue beat and only modest upside on acquisition news, suggesting investors sometimes fade positive catalysts.
Over the past months, BioCryst has focused on strengthening its hereditary angioedema franchise. On Jan 12, 2026, it reported preliminary $601M 2025 ORLADEYO revenue, up 37% year-over-year and above guidance, yet the stock fell. The company then moved to acquire Astria Therapeutics, adding navenibart to its HAE portfolio, financed partly through a new loan facility and share issuance. More recently, news has included inducement equity grants and an upcoming Q4 2025 earnings date. Today’s AAAAI data announcement fits this ongoing HAE-focused expansion.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement highlights BioCryst’s effort to expand and diversify its hereditary angioedema portfolio, with 9 abstracts at AAAAI covering both ORLADEYO and navenibart. Recent history shows strong ORLADEYO revenue growth and the addition of navenibart via the Astria acquisition, reinforcing an HAE-focused strategy. Investors may watch for detailed efficacy and durability signals from ALPHA-STAR and ALPHA-SOLAR, as well as future revenue and expense trends, to gauge how effectively these scientific milestones translate into commercial performance.

RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: BCRX) today announced that the company will present nine abstracts from its hereditary angioedema (HAE) portfolio at the 2026 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) Annual Meeting taking place in Philadelphia from February 27-March 2, 2026.
Data include six abstracts featuring new clinical trial and real-world outcomes with ORLADEYO® (berotralstat), the first and only targeted oral prophylactic therapy for patients with HAE aged 2 and older, and three abstracts featuring new clinical trial outcomes with navenibart, a long-acting, monoclonal antibody plasma kallikrein inhibitor being investigated for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of HAE. These data include a late-breaking presentation highlighting positive interim results of the long-term, open-label ALPHA-SOLAR trial showing sustained, robust HAE attack suppression with navenibart administered every 3 or 6 months.
“The breadth of data to be presented at AAAAI, including a late-breaking abstract, reflect the continued evolution of our strategy to expand and diversify our HAE portfolio in ways that matter to patients and their care teams,” said Charlie Gayer, Chief Executive Officer of BioCryst. “From advancing programs like navenibart to the launch of an expanded pediatric indication for ORLADEYO, we are focused on delivering meaningful treatment options that align with individual patient needs, preferences, and lifestyles, supported by rigorous and innovative clinical evidence.”

About ORLADEYO® (berotralstat)
ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) is the first and only oral therapy designed specifically to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adult and pediatric patients 2 years and older. One dose of ORLADEYO per day works to prevent HAE attacks by decreasing the activity of plasma kallikrein.
About navenibart
Navenibart is an investigational YTE-modified monoclonal antibody inhibitor of plasma kallikrein, an established and safe mechanism, currently being evaluated in clinical trials for long-term prevention of HAE attacks with potential best-in-class dosing every 3 or 6 months.
U.S. Indication and Important Safety Information
INDICATION
ORLADEYO® (berotralstat) is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor indicated for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE) in adults and pediatric patients 2 years and older.
Limitations of use
The safety and effectiveness of ORLADEYO for the treatment of acute HAE attacks have not been established. ORLADEYO should not be used for the treatment of acute HAE attacks. Additional doses or doses of ORLADEYO higher than the prescribed once-daily dose are not recommended due to the potential for QTc interval prolongation.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
An increase in QTc interval was observed in adults at dosages higher than 150 mg once daily and was concentration dependent.
The most common adverse reactions (≥
In adult and pediatric patients aged 12 years and older with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C), the recommended dosage of ORLADEYO capsules is 110 mg once daily with food. In pediatric patients aged 2 to <12 years with moderate or severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B or C), avoid use of ORLADEYO.
Berotralstat is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein. P-gp inducers may decrease berotralstat plasma concentration, leading to reduced efficacy of ORLADEYO. Avoid concomitant use of P-gp inducers with ORLADEYO.
ORLADEYO at a dose of 150 mg is a moderate inhibitor of CYP2D6 and CYP3A4. Concomitant use of ORLADEYO with CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 substrates can increase exposure of the CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 substrates and may increase the risk of adverse reactions associated with the substrates. If ORLADEYO is concomitantly used with CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 substrates where minimal increases in the concentration of the substrates may lead to serious adverse reactions, closely monitor or modify the dosage of the CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 substrate.
The safety and effectiveness of ORLADEYO in pediatric patients <2 years of age have not been established.
There are insufficient data available to inform drug-related risks with ORLADEYO use in pregnancy. There are no data on the presence of berotralstat in human milk, its effects on the breastfed infant, or its effects on milk production.
