IgG Next Generation (BT595)

10% IVIg manufactured with a new production process

Development of a subcutaneous (SC) product (20%) has started

IgG Next Generation is intended to become Biotest's world-wide IVIg with a focus on US market and high price markets in EU and RoW

Master product for the planned Biotest Next Level (BNL) production plant

IgG Next Generation – Development Strategy

  • Increase in IgG yield by 0.5 g/l plasma to 4.5 g/l plasma
  • Process suitable for manufacturing of IgG Next Generation and IgM Concentrate/Trimodulin
  • Increase attractiveness by an state of the art SC product and approval of additional indication(s) as life cycle management
  • One product suitable for worldwide commercialization
  • Optimization of product quality (e.g. low IgA and dimer content)

Building on the Intratect experience to create an optimized IVIG IgG Next Generation

Maintain:

  • No thrombogenic activity
  • Infusion rate up to 8 ml/kg/h with flexible infusion protocols
  • Low ACA & polymer levels
  • High margins of safety for prions and viruses

Further improve:

  • Implementation of an additional purification column to further reduce anti-A/anti-B antibody levels
  • Increased immunoglobulin yield to 4.5 g/l plasma

Fibrinogen

Indication:

Congenital fibrinogen deficiency and acquired fibrinogen deficiency in the indication severe spinal surgery

Status:

  • Congenital Fibrinogen deficiency trail in phase I/III
  • Acquired Fibrinogen deficiency in phase III

Source: IMS Data 2-2017, Internal Critical bleeding market research, Data provided by affiliate

Fibrinogen - Point of care diagnostic

  • In Germany and Austria the market growth was highly connected with improved diagnostics
  • ROTEM®/TEG® devices are established for point-of-care diagnosis and treatment
  • Especially important for acquired fibrinogen deficiency,
    • to monitor decrease of fibrinogen levels during bleeding => triggered treatment decision
    • to adjust dosing according to individual need => targeted dosing

Trimodulin - IgM-enriched Immunoglobulin Broad therapeutic potential in severe infection

i.e. K. pneumoniae, P. mirabilis, P. aeruginosa, E. sakazakii, Enterococcus sp., Staph. aureus, C. difficile, C. jejuni, C.albicans, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. marcescens, Enterobacter sakazakii

  • Neutralization of multiple pathogens
  • Binding of toxins and inflammation activators
  • Reducing the secretion of immune mediators
  • Immune modulation

Trimodulin for treatment of severe community acquired pneumonia (sCAP)

No comparable adjuvant therapy available

  • Neutralization of bacterial toxins
  • Reduction of overshooting immune-mediated tissue damage
  • Reduced risk for severe sepsis, septic shock, respiratory and multiorgan failure

Competitor Mapping

  • No direct competitors no IgM enriched immunoglobulins on the market or in clinical trials
  • High medical need mortality rate high despite antibiotics
  • Commercial advantageous pricing opportunity

Trimodulin – Upside Indications

Biotest Next Level: Progress in Dreieich

  • Equipment for the purification of IgG Next Generation handed over to Biotest
  • Technologically leading system for virus inactivation integrated
  • Qualifications of clean rooms and media systems are in progress to be approved by Darmstadt Regional Council in Q4/2019
  • Establishment and validation of manufacturing processes is ongoing to be approved in 2020

Summary

Next Steps

  • Biotest Next Level progressing
  • Clinical trials for new BNL products ongoing: IgG Next Gen, Fibrinogen; Trimodulin in preparation
  • Opening of new plasma collection centres in Europe
