Orsini Partners with Ascendis to Distribute YORVIPATH® for Rare Disorder Treatment

In a significant move for patient care, Orsini has been chosen by Ascendis Pharma as its specialty pharmacy partner for the distribution of YORVIPATH® (palopegteriparatide) in the United States. This FDA-approved treatment is a parathyroid hormone analog specifically indicated for adults suffering from chronic hypoparathyroidism, a condition that affects approximately 70,000 individuals in the U.S.

Chronic hypoparathyroidism is a rare endocrine disorder that occurs when the body fails to produce adequate parathyroid hormone, leading to low calcium and high phosphorus levels in the blood. Patients may experience a variety of debilitating symptoms such as muscle cramps, bone damage, chronic pain, cataracts, and kidney stones. The introduction of YORVIPATH is expected to provide a much-needed treatment option for those who currently have limited choices.

YORVIPATH is administered in a unique way that ensures patients receive continuous exposure to the active ingredient over a 24-hour period, making it easier to manage the symptoms associated with this rare disorder. The treatment is already approved for use in the European Union, United Kingdom, and European Economic Area, signaling confidence in its effectiveness.

Darin DeCarlo, Chief Growth Officer of Orsini, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, "We’re thrilled to add YORVIPATH to our growing portfolio of endocrinology therapies. Orsini is built to serve rare disease patients, and we’re excited to partner with Ascendis Pharma to deliver this new treatment option to those suffering from chronic hypoparathyroidism."
