PTBE secondary to brain cancer

Brain Cancer

Metastatic Primary

  • Is the most prevalent type of brain cancer in adults
  • Major impact on patient's quality of life
  • Estimates of up to 400.000 prevalent patients in US alone 1
  • Most common primary sites are 1,2:
    • pulmonary (39–56%)
    • breast (13–30%)
    • skin (8–11%)
    • gastrointestinal (6–9%)
    • renal cancer (2–6%)
  • Overall survival generally exceeds 6 months, with a range of 8-16 months 3
  • Association with PTBE in most cases 4
  • Brain metastases in children are extremely rare, but can be seen secondary to neuroblastoma

  • High mortality despite often early diagnosis
  • Major impact on patient's quality of life
  • In the US alone ~180.000 prevalent patients reported for 2022 5
  • Association with PTBE of up to 60% of cases dependent on the subtype of brain cancer
  • Most common adult primary brain tumors are 6 :
    • glioblastoma (49%)
    • other gliomas with CNS parenchyma infiltration (30%)
    • primary CNS lymphoma (7%)
  • Most common pediatric primary brain tumors are 7 :

  • Medulloblastoma (20%)
  • high-grade gliomas (15%)
  • Ependymoma (10%)

Definition

PTBE is associated with many primary and metastatic brain tumours, which through the accumulation of extracellular fluid around the tumour results in compression of brain tissue and subsequent impairment of brain function(s)

Impact

PTBE significantly compounds the morbidity of brain tumors, causing headaches, seizures, cognitive impairment, and potentially life-threatening increased intracranial pressure.

PTBE represents a critical challenge in neuro-oncology, as it both exacerbates tumor symptoms and limits treatment options. Managing this condition effectively without harmful side effects could transform patient outcomes and quality of life.

PTBE secondary to metastatic brain tumor

Lung, Melanoma, Breast, Colorectal, Kidney ~100,000

PTBE secondary to primary brain tumor

Gliomas ~90,000

  • The standard treatment for PTBE are corticosteroids, developed first in 1948 1 , which often cause significant side effects
    • such as severe myopathy, muscle wasting, impaired glucose metabolism, immunosuppression, glucose intolerance, abnormal weight gain, osteoporosis, gastritis, gastrointestinal bleeding, hypertension and personality changes
  • Corticosteroids can also hamper the effect of certain cancer therapies such as chemotherapy or modern immunotherapies
  • There are no other approved pharmacologic PTBE treatments, and more tolerable alternatives are highly needed
    • Bevacizumab is used off-label based on Phase 2 efficacy data, but is also known to have severe side-effects

As overall survival in malignant brain tumors continues to improve due to earlier detection and innovative treatments, there is a critical and growing need for PTBE treatments with significantly more tolerable safety profiles

C-PTBE-01

Corticorelin

High unmet medical need

▪ Medicine to treat PTBE effectively without the severe, systemic side effects of corticosteroids that does not impair underlying chemo- or modern immunotherapies in adult or pediatric cancer patients with PTBE secondary to malignant brain tumors

Goal of therapy:

  • Completely replace or significantly reduce corticosteroid use in patients with PTBE
  • Significantly improved tolerability resulting in improved quality of life
  • Avoid impairment of certain chemotherapies or modern immunotherapies potentially enhancing their efficacy

Lead Project C-PTBE-01: Characteristics and benefits of corticorelin

  • The active substance of C-PTBE-01 is Corticorelin (hCRF), an endogenous neuropeptide of of 41 amino acids sequence
  • Corticorelin can positively impact the in PTBE disrupted blood-brain barrier. In preclinical studies it showed an antiangiogenetic and anti-VGEF effect and anti-tumor effect.
  • Corticorelin has shown a strong steroid-sparing effect in both preclinical and importantly in two clinical safety and efficacy studies, demonstrating the potential for a significant reduction or complete replacement of steroid use. This in turn may reduce or avoid the severe glucocorticoid-related side effects and thus improve the quality of life of patients.
  • By being able to lower the dose or replace corticosteroids completely, there is also the potential to maintain the efficacy of novel tumor therapies for PTBE patients currently treated with corticosteroids.
  • C-PTBE-01 is classified as biologic in the USA. Curatis will submit a biologics license application which benefits from 12 years of market exclusivity.

Corticorelin Key Clinical Data in PTBE Highlights Potential

A completed phase 3 clinicaltrial & open label extension evaluated corticorelin in PTBE in patients with malignant brain tumors which demonstrated:

one month 1 40%clinically meaningful difference in sub analysis of primary endpoint in patients with PTBE secondary to brain metastases (70.0% vs 30.4% p<0.01) 2

In addition, corticorelin acetate:

  • Was well tolerated and highly safe with AEs of note: infusion site reactions and flushing 1, 2
  • Demonstrated consistent and dose-dependent neurological improvement. 1
  • The reduction in steroid requirement for patients with PTBE was associated with a reduction in the incidence and severity of common steroid adverse effects. 2

Significant Market Opportunity

  • More than 150,000 patients are affected by peritumoral brain edema in the USA
  • Globally around 500,000 patients may suffer from peritumoral brain edema
  • Estimated peak sales: >1 billion USD

Strong IP & Exclusivity Protection

  • Biologics License Application: 12 years of market exclusivity in the USA
  • Data Protection: 10 yrs. in Europe, 8 yrs. in Japan
  • Orphan Drug Status: USA 7 years, EU 10 years, Japan 10 years; efforts ongoing

  • Proceeding without delay to a regulatory submission for a pivotal Phase 3 study
  • Adaptive trial design with dose optimization lead-in phase, followed by confirmatory segment
  • Partnering process for C-PTBE-01 initiated in Q3 2025 (focus on Global Leaders in Oncology and Specialty Care)
  • Next Step: Preparation of a pivotal Phase 3 study

Potential Expansion Indications

  • Primary brain tumors in children and adults
  • Potentiation of anti-VGEF tumor therapies
  • Anti-tumor therapy and/or potentiation thereof

C-AM-01

Description ofthe disease

  • There are 2 types of migraine: migraine with aura (20%) and migraine without aura (80%)
  • An aura is a temporary visual disturbance such as flashes of light, flickering, zigzag lines or blind spots, tingling or numbness in the hands, arms or face, speech disorders, dizziness, partial paralysis. These symptoms, sometimes similar to signs of a stroke, can be debilitating and frightening to patients
  • Migraine with aura can have a massive impact on patients' lives
  • There is currently no specific preventive treatment → large unmet medical need
  • C-AM-01 is an oral platelet aggregation inhibitor
  • Two phase IIa clinical proof-of-concept studies indicate a reduction in the number of attacks
  • Peak sales potential: approx. US\$ 500m
    • Migraine prevalence is approx. 15-20% of the total population; approx. 15-30% of migraine patients experience aura symptoms
    • Curatis focuses on serious cases

IP/ patent protection

  • USA: Use and dosage regimen patent granted in Nov. 2021
  • EU: 10 yrs. data protection
  • Japan: 8 yrs. data protection
