IgG Next Generation (IVIG)

IgG Next Generation

Study 993 CIDP*** US under evaluation

Study 992 ITP** (Ideopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura) 40 evaluable adult patients

First patient in 1-2017

*: Primary Immune Deficiency

**: Immune Thrombocyto Penia

***: Chronic Inflammatory

Demyelinating Polyneuropathy

IgM Concentrate: Severe community acquired pneumonia (sCAP)

  • Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a leading cause of illness and death worldwide(1)
  • CAP is an infection of the lungs occurring in people who have not been recently hospitalized
  • Severe CAP (sCAP) is usually defined as CAP that requires admission to the intensive care unit (ICU)
  • sCAP is a progressive disease often leading to life-threatening sepsis and multiple organ failure

Chest radiograph

High unmet medical need

  • Mortality of sCAP patients admitted to ICUs usually ranges from 23-58% depending on time and admission to hospital(2),(3)
  • Mortality rates have not changed significantly over the past several decades despite the availability of improved broad-spectrum antibiotics

IgM Concentrate: CIGMA study (phase II) – Objectives & endpoints

Objectives

• Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of IgM Concentrate in patients with sCAP

Primary endpoint / Key secondary endpoints

  • Increase of ventilator free days (VFDs)
  • 28-day all cause mortality

Key inclusion criteria

  • Pneumonia has been acquired outside the hospital or diagnosed within 72 hours after hospital admission
  • Patient receiving adequate antibiotic treatment for pneumonia
  • Major sCAP criterion: need for invasive mechanical ventilation

Markers for post hoc analyses were selected based on scientific / medical considerations

  • Severe community acquired pneumonia
  • Value driver based on CIGMA study results
  • Market size in sCAP approx. 350,000 patients worldwide(1)
  • Sales potential approx. €300 million p.a.

Fibrinogen: Development for congenital and acquired fibrinogen deficiencies

  • Fibrinogen plays an essential role in blood clotting
  • A sufficient plasma fibrinogen level is critical for effective haemostasis

MCF = Maximum clot firmness.

Haemophilia A therapeutic (HAT): Timeline

  • Development of a recombinant Factor VIII closely related to the wild type Factor VIII with improved characteristics such as half life extension and lowered immunogenicity
  • Preventing inhibitor development
  • Extension of treatment intervals

RI-002

  • Novel IVIG, manufactured from a unique plasma pool formed by blending high-titer Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
  • Initial target indication Primary Immune Deficiency Disease (PIDD)

Clinical trial data results

IVIG lead product Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)

  • RSV Infection is a serious problem for Immune-Compromised patients
  • Approximately 5-15% RSV infection rate in immune-compromised patient populations

  • Pivotal Phase III trial achieved primary endpoint (rate of serious bacterial infection (SBI) per patient / year < 1 SBI)

  • RI-002 prevented serious bacterial infections such as bacterial pneumonia, osteomyelitis and bacterial sepsis demonstrating no SBI in 55 patient / years

Label expansion

• Potential future follow-on target populations for RSV specific indications: HSCT / BMT, solid organ transplant, chemotherapy and other immune-compromised patients
