Osteoarthritis & Hypertension

  • · Osteoarthritis, the most common type of arthritis, causes loss of cartilage, decreased mobility, and significant pain; the incidence of osteoarthritis increases with age
  • · NSAIDs are effective for treating osteoarthritis related pain. However, NSAIDs have a significant deleterious side effect: elevated blood pressure
  • · Hypertension, known as the "silent killer", increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and death
  • · 27 million people in the US suffer from osteoarthritis of whom, 13.5 million people may suffer from hypertension as well
  • " Over half of the 50+ age group in US/EU suffer from hypertension
  • · There is no single medication on the market that simultaneously treats both osteoarthritis and hypertension

NSAIDs and Antihypertensive Drugs

Since 2005 in the U.S., NSAIDs carry an FDA-mandated "Black Box" label warning of increased cardiovascular risks:

Cardiovascular Risk

  • CELEBREX may cause an increased risk of serious cardiovascular thrombotic events, myocardial infarction, and stroke, which can be fatal. All NSAIDs may have a similar risk This risk may increase with duration of use. Patients with cardiovascular disease or risk factors for cardiovascular disease may be at greater risk. (See WARNINGS and CLINICAL TRIALS).
  • CELEBREX is contraindicated for the treatment of peri-operative pain in the setting of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery (see WARNINGS).

In July 2015 the FDA issued a Safety Announcement stating its intention to:

  • · Require labels for prescription NSAIDs to indicate that the risk of heart attack or stroke associated with NSAIDs, can occur as early as the first weeks of using an NSAID and may increase with longer use
  • · Strengthen the current Label Warning, in effect since 2005

Rationale for KIT-302

  • · Many osteoarthritis sufferers do not receive NSAIDs due to physicians' and patients' fear of elevated blood pressure
  • · KIT-302 combines celecoxib, the only COX-2 selective NSAID approved in U.S., with amlodipine, a well-known anti-hypertensive, to:
    • Treat osteoarthritis pain
    • Treat NSAIDs' side effect of elevated blood pressure (which may cause hypertension), or
    • Treat pre-existing hypertension
  • · In August 2011, the FDA issued a Safety Information Announcement stating:

" .. In patients who are elderly, volume-depleted (including those on diuretic therapy), or with compromised renal function, co-administration of NSAIDs, including selective COX-2 inhibitors, with angiotensin II receptor antagonists ... or ACE inhibitors, may result in deterioration of renal function, including possible acute renal failure."

No such Safety Information Announcement was issued by the FDA with regard to amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, used in KIT-302

KIT-302's Advantages vs. Current Treatment

  • · Currently, poor patient compliance in taking prescribed anti-hypertensive medications
  • · KIT-302 provides a combination solution that does not exist in the market today and offers real advantages

KITO

KIT-302 Should Enjoy Labeling Advantage

· FDA policy (March 2011) states that a drug that lowers blood pressure will be permitted to carry the following in its labeling:

DRUGNAME is a [name of pharmacologic class] indicated for the treatment of hypertension, to lower blood pressure. Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions.

  • · FDA informed Kitov in writing this labeling may be used on the package insert of KIT-302
  • · Following FDA approval of KIT-302, physicians' choice in treating osteoarthritis pain will be:

12 NSAID - Pain relief drug with its "black box", warning of the risk of heart attack, stroke, and death

KIT-302 With labeling noting reduction of blood pressure and lowering the risk of heart attack, stroke and death

Moreover, if approved by FDA, KIT-302 will be the only drug in the market able to claim simultaneous treatment of OA pain and treatment of hypertension

OR

Intellectual Property and Market Exclusivity

  • · Two Patent Families Pending:
    • · Pharmaceutical Formulation and Methods-Of-Use patents which combine NSAID compounds with Anti-Hypertensive compounds
    • · Methods for ameliorating Drug-Induced Elevations in Blood Pressure via Adjunctive Use of at least one Anti-Hypertensive
  • · Expected market exclusivity:
    • U.S. 3 years*
    • Europe 7-10 years

Phase III Trial Design

  • · Double-blind, placebo controlled, multi-center Phase III clinical trial in 152 patients
  • · Four arms, each of 30-45 patients, treated for 2 weeks with once daily oral dosage of placebo, celecoxib (200 mg), amlodipine (10 mg), and KIT-302 (200 mg celecoxib + 10 mg amlodipine)
  • · Primary end-point:
    • · Demonstrate that the reduction in blood pressure in KIT-302 arm is at least 50% of the reduction in the amlodipine arm
    • · No need to demonstrate or measure efficacy in treatment of pain caused by osteoarthritis

Phase III Trial Results

  • · Data announced Dec. 15, 2015
  • · Primary efficacy end-point has been successfully achieved
  • · Number of patients (n=152) was adequate to provide statistical significance
