This increase was primarily due to the performance of tasks related to our MOLBREEVI program, which includes $5.7 million of costs related to regulatory affairs and quality assurance, primarily driven by the BLA submission; $0.5 million of costs related to our chemistry, manufacturing, and controls activities; and $1.0 million other departmental overhead, partially offset by a decrease of $3.8 million in clinical costs.

The increase was due to higher personnel and related costs, in terms of compensation and an increase in valuation and stock awards, driven by strategic workforce expansion to support and scale operations of $11.2 million; certain additional commercial activities of $3.1 million; and other overhead of $2.7 million primarily driven by expanded patient advocacy and medical affairs activities.
Autoimmune PAP is a rare lung disease characterized by the abnormal build-up of surfactant in the alveoli. Surfactant consists of proteins and lipids and is an important physiological substance that lines the alveoli to prevent them from collapsing. In a healthy lung, excess surfactant is cleared and digested by immune cells called alveolar macrophages. Alveolar macrophages need to be stimulated by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to function properly in clearing surfactant, but in autoimmune PAP, GM-CSF is neutralized by autoantibodies against GM-CSF, rendering macrophages unable to adequately clear surfactant. As a result, an excess of surfactant accumulates in the alveoli, causing impaired gas transfer, resulting in clinical symptoms of shortness of breath, often with cough and frequent fatigue. Patients may also experience episodes of fever, chest pain, or coughing up blood, especially if secondary lung infection develops. In the long term, the disease can lead to serious complications, including lung fibrosis and the need for a lung transplant.
