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
IgM Concentrate: CIGMA – summary incl. post hoc analyses
Stratification (baseline level) (1)
CRP = C-Reactive Protein.
(1) Descriptive p-values from a Fisher's Exact Test with a significance level of 0.05 have been calculated for subgroups.
IgM Concentrate
Attractive market potential
- 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
