Vertex's cash reserves, including cash equivalents and marketable securities, grew to $13.7 billion, up from $10.9 billion at the end of 2022. In terms of business development, Vertex continues to be a leading global biotechnology firm, focusing on creating transformative medicines for serious diseases. The company has a strong pipeline with clinical-stage programs in various therapeutic areas, including cystic fibrosis, sickle cell disease, and beta thalassemia. Vertex's TRIKAFTA/KAFTRIO was approved in the U.S. and E.U. for treating nearly three-quarters of the 92,000 people with cystic fibrosis in North America, Europe, and Australia. The company also launched CASGEVY, a gene-edited cell therapy for severe sickle cell disease and transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia, now approved in multiple regions. Looking ahead, Vertex is preparing for the near-term launches of new products in cystic fibrosis and acute pain. The company's strategy includes advancing multiple compounds or therapies from each program into early clinical trials to select the most promising therapies for later-stage development. Vertex aims to rapidly follow its first-in-class therapies with potential best-in-class candidates to provide durable clinical and commercial success. The company's financial health and strategic initiatives position it well for continued growth and innovation in the biotechnology sector.
