NEWTON, Mass., Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Karyopharm Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: KPTI), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, today announced preliminary unaudited fourth quarter and full year 2025 total revenue and U.S. XPOVIO net product revenue estimates and outlined its 2025 achievements and 2026 objectives.
"2026 has the promise to be a transformative year for Karyopharm and the patient communities that we intend to serve, with top-line data from our Phase 3 SENTRY trial in myelofibrosis expected in March. Positive data from our SENTRY trial could unlock our opportunity to improve patient outcomes and redefine the standard-of-care in myelofibrosis. Our teams are actively preparing for regulatory filings, commercialization and the opportunity to rapidly launch with the first ever combination therapy in a multi-billion dollar market," said Richard Paulson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Karyopharm. "In endometrial cancer, we remain focused and on track to report top-line data from our Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial in mid-2026, representing a significant opportunity to transform patient outcomes in a targeted, biomarker driven patient population. With two high-potential data readouts this year, 2026 is expected to be a catalyst-rich year that could position us for tremendous long-term value creation."
Key Program Highlights in 2025
Selinexor in Multiple Myeloma
Demand for XPOVIO was consistent in 2025 versus 2024 in the increasingly competitive multiple myeloma marketplace, with the community setting continuing to drive approximately 60% of overall net product revenue.
Global patient access for selinexor expanded in 2025, with favorable reimbursement decisions in Spain and China, and additional regulatory approvals in multiple countries where selinexor is now approved in more than 50 countries.
Selinexor in Myelofibrosis
Completed enrollment of the Phase 3 SENTRY trial (XPORT-MF-034; NCT04562389) with 353 patients in early September 2025. SENTRY is evaluating 60 mg once-weekly selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib compared to ruxolitinib plus placebo. The preliminary baseline characteristics for patients enrolled in SENTRY as presented at the American Society of Hematology 2025 Annual Meeting (n=320) are representative of the intended patient population. In addition, preliminary blinded aggregate safety data from the first 61 patients with a median follow-up of greater than 12 months may suggest improvements in both hematologic and non-hematologic treatment emergent adverse events as compared to the Phase 1 data evaluating selinexor 60 mg weekly in combination with standard of care ruxolitinib in JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients, as well as historical ruxolitinib monotherapy data. The Company cautions that preliminary baseline characteristics and preliminary blinded aggregate safety data from the Phase 3 SENTRY trial may not ultimately be reflective of the actual trial results.
Presented data from the XPORT-MF-035 (NCT04562870) Phase 2, randomized, open-label trial of selinexor versus physician's-choice in hard-to-treat patients with heavily pretreated myelofibrosis (n=24) at the European Hematology Association 2025 Congress. The data suggest the potential for single-agent clinical activity with selinexor, including spleen volume reduction, symptom improvement, hemoglobin stabilization, reduced transfusion burden, and evidence of disease modification.
Selinexor in Endometrial Cancer
Modified the design of the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 (NCT05611931) trial to: a) focus enrollment on patients with either: i) proficient mismatch repair status (pMMR) tumors; or ii) patients with deficient mismatch repair status (dMMR) tumors who are medically ineligible for checkpoint inhibitors; b) introduce a new modified intent-to-treat (ITT) population of approximately 220 patients comprised of this focused population; and, c) increase the ITT sample size to approximately 276 patients.
Enrollment continues in the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial evaluating selinexor as a maintenance-only therapy following systemic therapy versus placebo in patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
Corporate and Financial Highlights for 2025
Based on preliminary unaudited financial information, the Company expects total revenue, which includes license and royalty revenue from partners, to be approximately $33 million for the fourth quarter 2025 and approximately $145 million for the full year 2025, and U.S. XPOVIO net product revenue to be approximately $32 million for the fourth quarter 2025 and approximately $115 million for the full year 2025.
Completed strategic financing transactions that extended cash runway beyond the expected top-line readout of the Phase 3 SENTRY trial in myelofibrosis.
Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments as of December 31, 2025 were approximately $64 million. The Company expects its existing liquidity, including the revenue it expects to generate from XPOVIO net product sales and its license agreements, will be sufficient to fund its planned operations into the second quarter of 2026.
The financial information presented in this press release may be adjusted as a result of the completion of customary annual review and audit procedures.
Anticipated Catalysts and Operational Objectives in 2026
Myelofibrosis
Top-line data from the Phase 3 SENTRY trial is expected in March 2026.
The Company expects to report top-line data from all patients in the 60 mg cohort of the Phase 2 SENTRY-2 trial with at least 24 weeks of follow-up in the second half of 2026.
Endometrial Cancer
Top-line data from the event-driven, Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial is expected in mid-2026. The Company continues to enroll patients into the XPORT-EC-042 trial of selinexor as a maintenance monotherapy for patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
Multiple Myeloma
Maintain the Company's commercial foundation in the increasingly competitive multiple myeloma marketplace and drive increased XPOVIO revenues.
Continue to support global launches by our partners following regulatory and reimbursement approvals for selinexor in ex-U.S. territories.
Continue to follow patients that are enrolled in the Phase 3 XPORT-MM-031 (EMN29) trial. The Company expects to report top-line data from this event-driven trial in the second half of 2026.

About the Phase 3 SENTRY Trial
SENTRY (XPORT-MF-034; NCT04562389) is a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating a once-weekly dose of 60 mg of selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib compared to placebo plus ruxolitinib in JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients with platelet counts >100 x 10
9/L. Patients are randomized 2-to-1 to the selinexor arm. The co-primary endpoints for this trial are spleen volume reduction ≥ 35% (SVR35) at week 24 and the average change in absolute total symptom score (Abs-TSS) over 24 weeks relative to baseline.
About Myelofibrosis
Myelofibrosis is a rare blood cancer that affects approximately 20,000 patients in the United States and 17,000 patients in the European Union1. The disease causes bone marrow fibrosis (scarring in the bone marrow), which makes it difficult for the bone marrow to make healthy blood cells, splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), progressive anemia which often leads to symptoms like fatigue and weakness, and other disease associated symptoms including abdominal discomfort, pain under the left ribs, early satiety, night sweats and bone pain. The only approved class of therapies to treat myelofibrosis are JAK inhibitors, including ruxolitinib. Patients treated with the most commonly prescribed JAK inhibitor often require blood transfusions, and more than 30% will discontinue treatment due to anemia.2 Anemia and transfusion dependence are correlated with poor prognosis and shortened survival.3

About the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 Trial
EC-042 (XPORT-EC-042; NCT05611931) is a global, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind clinical trial evaluating selinexor as a maintenance therapy following systemic therapy in patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. The EC-042 trial is expected to enroll approximately 276 patients who will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a 60 mg, once-weekly, administration of oral selinexor or placebo until disease progression. The trial includes two patient populations, for which, the primary endpoint of progression free survival will be tested sequentially and the key secondary endpoint of overall survival will be evaluated: 1) a modified intent to treat population (mITT) that will include patients with either, a) TP53 wild-type tumors with proficient mismatch repair status (pMMR); or, b) TP53 wild-type tumors with deficient mismatch repair status (dMMR), who are medically ineligible to receive checkpoint inhibitors; and, 2) the trial's original intent to treat (ITT) population, which will include all patients enrolled in the trial whose tumors are TP53 wild-type, regardless of MMR status. The mITT population is expected to include approximately 220 patients. In connection with the EC-042 trial, Karyopharm entered into a global collaboration with Foundation Medicine, Inc. to develop FoundationOne®CDx, a tissue-based comprehensive genomic profiling test to identify and enroll patients whose tumors are TP53 wild-type.
About Endometrial Cancer
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy in the U.S.1 In 2025, approximately 69,120 uterine cancers (predominantly endometrial) are expected to be diagnosed, with 13,860 deaths.1 In 2022, there were about 420,368 cases with 97,723 deaths worldwide.2 Both incidence and mortality have continued to rise.3,4 Key risk factors include obesity, type 2 diabetes, high-fat diets, tamoxifen or oral estrogen use, and delayed menopause.5 TP53 is a well-recognized prognostic marker for EC; >50% of advanced or recurrent EC tumors are TP53wt (gene for tumor protein P53; wild-type), and ~40%-55% are both TP53wt and mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR).6-8 While immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown benefit in patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) and pMMR, the magnitude of benefit is greater for patients with dMMR tumors versus pMMR tumors.9-10 There remains an unmet need for targeted therapies for patients with pMMR EC.11
