What the date means

Trelegy's US exclusivity date is based on patent-expiry estimate. It is estimated from patent expiry rather than a fixed entry date, so it may move as patents are challenged or extended. It is a small-molecule drug, so copies are generics. Generic launches usually take most of the US volume within months.

What past cliffs suggest

Among past small-molecule drugs facing generics: Tecfidera's US sales fell to 21% of their 2019 level in its first full year of generics (2021); Revlimid's US sales fell to 96% of their 2021 level in its first full year of generics (2022) and 57% two years later. Where settlements cap generic volumes, as with Revlimid, the decline is slower. See how past cliffs played out →

Medicare price negotiation

Trelegy was selected for the Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program. Its negotiated Medicare price takes effect in 2027, 73% below its list price. That is the same year US generics can launch. The discount is measured against list price, before the rebates drugmakers already pay, and applies to Medicare only, so the revenue impact is smaller than the headline number.

What's at stake for GSK

Trelegy is 9.1% of GSK's 2025 revenue (≈$3.9B of $43.1B). With Shingrix and Nucala, the drugs tracked here add up to 26% of GSK's revenue losing US exclusivity by 2029. Turnover GBP 32.7B.
