New Research Collaboration in Asthma
World Leading Institution as Research Partner
Study Objective
==> picture [108 x 107] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [56 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
-
i. To identify genes which have potential utility as a diagnostic and/or therapeutic target that are predictive of asthma
-
ii. To perform a detailed study of immune responses to house dust mite in allergic subjects with or without asthma, to determine if there is a specific pattern of immune responses associated with asthma
Two Stage Study Design
-
i. The discovery cohort will consist of 15 house dust mite allergic subjects with asthma and 15 house dust allergic subjects without asthma.
-
ii. The validation cohort will consist of another 30 house dust mite allergic subjects (15 with asthma and 15 without asthma)
Study Completion – YE2015

Asthma – Huge Medical Need
==> picture [56 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
-
⊚ The cause not really known, though clear links to both genetics (family history) and environment
-
⊚ In an asthmatic person, the muscles of the bronchial tubes tighten and thicken, and the air passages become inflamed and mucus-filled, making it difficult for air to move
-
⊚ According to WHO estimates, 235 million people suffer from asthma with 59% having uncontrolled disease
-
⊚ Asthma is the most common chronic disease among children
-
⊚ Asthma is under-diagnosed and under-treated, creating a substantial burden to individuals and families

Asthma – Large Commercial Opportunity
==> picture [56 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
-
⊚ Asthma and related respiratory disease will be the third largest global therapeutic categories, with $41B - $46B in combined sales
-
⊚ As the industry looks to the future, this growing market represent an opportunity for manufacturers to introduce novel molecules, new combinations and innovative delivery devices to help better treat patients.
-
⊚ Most widely-used asthma medicines today employ a molecule that has long since lost patent protection, instead relying on unique, patented delivery devices
-
⊚ New first-in-class molecules could challenge top selling brands like Advair ($5B+ in sales) and Singulair (~$4B in sales)

The Importance of the Proof-of-Concept Study
==> picture [56 x 66] intentionally omitted <==
House Dust Mite (HDM) allergy is a significant risk factor for asthma in many countries
Allergic sensitization induced by exogenous allergenic molecules (HDM allergens) is the result of exposure of organs of the human body to such molecules. In this interplay, intrinsic properties of the exogenous proteins and environmental cofactors certainly play a role, but host-immune factors are of crucial importance to explain why every individual exposed to such an allergen does not develop an . allergy
Predisposition for developing allergy is the result of a complex multifactorial interplay of genes and environment. To understand the immunobiological mechanism of sensitization to allergens, their interaction with relevant structural and immune cells during mucosal exposure and entry, is of the utmost importance. Understanding could lead to development of novel therapies with disease modifying potential.
