"InSite continues to advance its portfolio of innovative ophthalmic therapeutics for front-of-eye conditions. In 2012, we completed enrollment in two Phase 3 clinical studies - our DOUBle trial of AzaSite Plus and DexaSite for the treatment of blepharitis, and our Phase 3 clinical trial of BromSite for post-surgical pain and inflammation," said Timothy Ruane, InSite's Chief Executive Officer. "We look forward to announcing the results from these pivotal studies as we work with U.S. and EU regulatory agencies in 2013 to complete the necessary requirements for marketing approvals. In addition, we are actively building on our core competencies as we explore the potential for InSite's DuraSite 2 platform to optimize the treatment of a number of ophthalmic conditions."
Fourth Quarter Corporate and Commercial Highlights
In November 2012, InSite completed enrollment of more than 240 patients undergoing cataract surgery in its Phase 3 clinical trial of BromSite™. The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of BromSite against the DuraSite® vehicle alone in addressing post-surgical ocular inflammation and pain. BromSite combines a low dose (0.075%) of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) bromfenac with InSite's DuraSite drug delivery technology. Results from the Phase 3 clinical study are expected in the first quarter of 2013.
AzaSite® royalties for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $4.8 million compared to $2.2 million for the same period of 2011. AzaSite is marketed in the U.S. by Merck for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis. Included in the AzaSite royalties for the fourth quarter of 2012 was a $2.6 million minimum royalty true-up by Merck required under the companies' commercial licensing agreement. Under the agreement, Merck agreed to pay AzaSite royalties of at least $19 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, payable on a quarterly basis.
In the fourth quarter of 2012, InSite recorded $0.7 million in royalty revenues associated with Besivance® (besifloxacin ophthalmic suspension) 0.6%, compared to $0.5 million in same period of 2011. Besivance is marketed globally by Bausch + Lomb for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis.
Fourth Quarter 2012 Results Summary
Total revenues increased to $5.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $3.1 million for the same period in 2011. Earned royalties from Merck for net sales of AzaSite were $2.1 million and $2.2 million for the fourth quarters of 2012 and 2011, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 2012, royalties from Merck included a $2.6 million minimum royalty true-up from Merck. The increase in royalties was driven by an increase in the required minimum royalty to $19 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, which was amended to be paid on a quarterly basis starting in the third quarter of 2012. In addition, a decline in earned royalties from net sales of AzaSite by Merck further increased the minimum royalty true-up. For the fourth quarter of 2012, royalties from net product sales of Besivance increased to $0.7 million compared to $0.5 million for the same period in 2011.
Research and development (R&D) expenses for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $4.1 million compared to $2.9 million in the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily related to the DOUBle Phase 3 clinical trial and the BromSite Phase 3 clinical trial. General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $1.4 million compared to $1.2 million in the same period in 2011. The increase was primarily related to slightly higher costs related to financial reporting services and investor relations.
Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $1.8 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to $3.2 million, or $0.02 per share, in the fourth quarter 2011. The decrease in net loss was driven by an increase in the minimum royalties from Merck, partially offset by the costs related to our Phase 3 clinical trials.
Full Year 2012 Results Summary
Total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $21.6 million compared to $15.9 million for the same period in 2011. Revenues in 2012 included $19.5 million in royalties from Merck for AzaSite compared to $13.9 million in 2011. Royalties from Merck included an additional $11.9 million and $3.9 million minimum royalty true-up for the years ended 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in royalties was driven by an increase in the required minimum royalty to $17 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 compared to $15 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 and the pro-rata share of $19 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. In addition, a decline of 24% in earned royalties from net sales of AzaSite by Merck further increased the minimum royalty true-up.
InSite also received royalties from Bausch + Lomb on global net sales of Besivance. The royalties from net sales of Besivance increased to $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $1.2 million in 2011.
R&D expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $15.5 million compared to $7.3 million in 2011.

G&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $5.8 million compared to $5.6 million in 2011.
