Improving Treatment for Hereditary Angioedema Berinert[®] Program
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE)
-
C1-esterase inhibitor is the primary control protein of activation of mediators of vascular permeability
-
HAE results from deficiency or dysfunction due to gene mutation
-
i.e. life-long condition
What Happens to Patients?
-
Recurrent episodes of swelling, sometime with a rash
-
Unpredictable and occur anywhere in the body
-
Life-threatening if laryngeal swelling
-
Attacks caused by stress, infection, menstruation, some drugs, unknown causes
==> picture [359 x 402] intentionally omitted <==
HAE Treatment Guidelines
==> picture [685 x 306] intentionally omitted <==
-
Bowen , et al, Ann Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2008
-
Gompels et al, Clin Exp Immunol . 2005
Berinert[®] - Effective Treatment for HAE
-
Long clinical use in Europe
-
Orphan drug status for treatment in US in 2009
-
Currently given via intravenous administration
-
A&E or self-administration
-
High quality manufacturing process
-
Strong safety record
==> picture [295 x 134] intentionally omitted <==
Berinert[®] Development Program
-
Improving Convenience
-
Developing a high concentration, low volume formulation
-
More rapid and easier subcutaneous administration
-
Improving Options
-
Program to gain indication for prevention for sufferers with frequent attacks
-
Launch when prevention indication for Berinert[®] is available in US
-
Expanding Indications
-
Exploring opportunities for new medical uses
Treating the Bleeding Patient
Acquired Bleeding Disorders
-
Coagulation factor deficiencies can occur because of multiple factors
-
Current treatment options
-
Donated blood products – platelets, fresh frozen plasma (FFP), cryoprecipitate
-
Specific products such as those in CSL portfolio
-
Problems with donated blood products
-
Sensitivity reactions
-
Large volume
-
Time taken to administer
-
Storage not straightforward
-
Consume a lot of donated blood
-
Limited lifespan
Beriplex[®] to reverse anti-coagulation with Vitamin K antagonists (e.g. warfarin)
Challenges with Anti-Coagulation
-
Vitamin K antagonists are the most commonly prescribed oral anti-coagulants to prevent clotting for people who are at risk, i.e. previously had a clot, artificial heart valves, etc
-
Potential problems
-
Over anti-coagulation can be a consequence of other medications, illness, other factors
-
Need to urgently reverse if trauma, surgery immediately required
What is Beriplex[®] ?
==> picture [289 x 79] intentionally omitted <==
-
Highly purified preparation containing vitamin K- dependent coagulation factors
-
FII, FVII, FIX, FX
-
2 viral inactivation steps
-
Specific antidote to vit K antagonists (anti-coagulants)
-
provides rapid normalisation of clotting
-
Used in Europe for >10 years with excellent safety record
-
Current program to expand geographical usage
Program to licence Beriplex[®] in US
-
Seeking approval for use of Beriplex[®] to reverse the effects of vitamin K antagonists for
-
Bleeding related to over-anticoagulation
-
Patients needing surgery
-
2 large randomised, controlled clinical trials
-
Bleeding study completed and analysis currently underway
-
BLA submission planned for 2011

Fibrinogen in Aortic Surgery
-
Patients go on cardiopulmonary bypass and
-
coagulation factors are consumed bleeding
-
Concept – a quickly administered, fast acting, low volume medicine to microvascular bleeding that will substantially reduce the need for donated (allogeneic) blood products

CSL324 – Acute and Chronic Inflammation
Concluding comments
-
CSL324:
-
fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the G-CSFR
-
a potent antagonist of G-CSF activity in in vitro and in vivo assays systems
-
does not induce acute neutropenia in NHP’s (role of G-CSF in homeostasis vs. acute or chronic inflammation)
-
opportunities for clinical development in a number of inflammatory indications
-
potential for small parallel Phase IIa studies
-
Next milestone: commence preclinical tox studies late 2011
