3What is Protein therapeutics?
It is currently estimated that there are
25,00040,000 different genes in the human
genome, viewed from the perspective of disease
mechanisms, as disease may result when any one
of these proteins contains mutations or other
abnormalities, so it gives a tremendous
opportunity for Protein therapeutics to
alleviate these disease.
4Why protein therapeutics?
- Proteins cannot be mimicked by simple chemical
compounds. - There is often less potential for protein
therapeutics to interfere - with normal biological processes and cause
adverse effects. - It is often well tolerated and are less likely to
elicit immune responses. - Provide effective replacement treatment without
the need for gene therapy - Time of protein therapeutics may be faster

MORE BIOTECHNOLOGY SUCCESSES
Pre-1986
A STAR IS BORN
6The Evolution of Protein Therapeutics A Timeline
1953 First accurate model of DNA suggested
1982 Human insulin, created using recombinant
DNA technology
1986 Interferon alfa and muromonab-CD3
approved
1993 CBER's Office of Therapeutics Research
and Review (OTRR) formed
1997 First whole chimeric antibody, rituximab,
and first humanized antibody,
daclizumab, approved
2002 Market for biotechnology products
represents approximately 30 billion
of 400 billion in yearly worldwide
pharmaceutical sales
2006 An inhaled form of insulin (Exubera)
approved, expanding protein products
into a new dosage form.
7Classification of protein therapeutics
Group I protein therapeutics with enzymatic or
regulatory activity Group II protein
therapeutics with special targeting
activity Group III protein vaccines Group IV
protein diagnostics
8Protein therapeutics replacing a protein that is
deficient or abnormal (Group Ia)
9Protein therapeutics augmenting an existing
pathway (Group Ib)
10Protein therapeutics providing a novel function
or activity (Group Ic)
11Protein therapeutics that interfere with a
molecule or organism (Group II a)
12Protein therapeutics that deliver other compounds
or proteins (Group II b)
13Protein vaccines (Group III )
14Protein diagnostics (Group IV )
15Protein Therapeutics Sales by Category, 2008
- Biologics already account for 12 (gt60bn) of
total pharmacy sales - Pharmaceuticals companies have invested heavily
in production capacity that needs filling - Acquisitions accelerating
16Biopharmaceuticals coming off patent in U.S. and
Western Europe

17Remaining Disadvantages
Protein Therapeutics also have disadvantages that
may limit their more widespread acceptance,
include low oral and transdermal bioavailability,
moreover, injections must be given frequently
because the half-lives of proteins are short.
