Clinical Background
  • Congenital hemophilia A with inhibitors to hFVIII
  • The development of neutralizing antibodies
    (inhibitors) to human FVIII following replacement
    therapy is a major complication in hemophilia A
  • Patients no longer respond to hFVIII therapy
  • Inhibitors develop in about 28 of severe
    hemophilia A patients
  • Additionally, 3 to 13 of mild and moderate
    hemophilia A patients also develop inhibitors
  • Acquired factor VIII inhibitor (Acquired
    hemophilia)
  • Rare affects 1 to 2 individuals in 1,000,000
    and occurs predominantly in older individuals
  • A small proportion of younger patients may
    develop the disease, predominantly postpartum
    women
  • Clinical manifestation is more severe and
    anatomically diverse than in congenital
    hemophilia A
  • Mortality rate 20 bleeding often spontaneous
    or in response to minimal trauma

OBI-1 is a recombinant protein formulated without
animal-derived products
  • 94 homologous with human fVIII
  • B-domain deleted
  • Amino acid linker combining A2 and A3
  • Baby hamster kidney cells
  • Two viral reduction/inactivation steps
  • Lyophilized in vials containing 500 IU OBI-1
  • Coagulant function equivalent to human fVIII

OBI-1 Clinical Experience Phase II - Study
OBI-1-201
  • Study design
  • A prospective, open-label, non comparative study
    to assess the hemostatic activity of OBI-1 in
    congenital hemophilia A patients with inhibitors
    and non-life or -limb threatening bleeding
    episodes
  • Dosing
  • Loading dose given in patients with measurable
    anti OBI-1 antibody titers only.
  • The initial treatment dose was 50 U/kg and was
    given 5 minutes after the loading dose
  • Subsequent doses of OBI-1, if necessary, were as
    follows 50, 50, 100, 100, 100, 150, 150 U/kg
    given 6 hours apart
  • Efficacy
  • 9 subjects had 25 bleeding episodes treated with
    OBI-1 (5 patients with gt1 bleed)
  • All bleeds (25/25) were successfully controlled
    with 8 or less injections of OBI-1 (median total
    dose 224 U/kg)
  • 20 of the 25 bleeds (80) were controlled with 1
    treatment dose plus the loading dose when
    applicable (median total dose of 201 U/kg)
  • In subjects with repeated exposure to OBI-1 and
    who had an increase in titer there was no
    increase in the number of injections required to
    control a bleeding episode

8
OBI-1 Clinical Experience Phase II - Study
OBI-1-201
  • Safety and Immunogenicity
  • A total of 41 OBI-1 injections were administered
    in 9 subjects
  • Individual dose ranging from 50 U/kg to 576 U/kg
  • One subject had a treatment-emergent adverse
    event considered possibly related to the study
    drug
  • Infusion reaction rated as mild and controlled
    with diphenhydramine
  • When retreated for a subsequent bleed the subject
    did not reported any AE
  • Eight out of nine (89) subjects developed
    anti-pFVIII antibodies following exposure to
    OBI-1 and in subjects receiving repeated OBI-1
    treatment higher anti-pFVIII titers did not
    affect efficacy nor safety
  • No increase in incidence of AEs with increased
    doses
  • No increase in number of injections of OBI-1
    required with increased titer

9
OBI-1 phase III clinical plan first prospective
clinical trials in acquired hemophilia and severe
bleeds in congenital hemophilia A with inhibitors
Study 302 in patients with congenital hemophilia
A and inhibitors to hFVIII Treatment of life-
or limb threatening bleeding and other serious
hemorrhage
Study 301 in patients with acquired factor VIII
inhibitor (acquired hemophilia) Treatment of all
acute serious bleeding episodes
Both will be of similar design Open label,
non-comparative prospective studies, about 40
patients in each study
Based on input received from regulatory agencies
to date Ipsen is on schedule for Phase 3
activities by Q1 2010
