RESULTS

CONCLUSIONS LAPSInsulin 115 and LAPSCA-Exendin-4 showed well-harmonized and

prolonged PK profiles compared to daily Insulin and GLP-1RA.

In a co-formulation, LAPSInsulin 115 and LAPSCA-Exendin-4 showed no PK profiles and intrinsic activity interferences.

LAPSInsulin 115 + LAPSCA-Exendin-4 combination showed superior glycemic control and reduced body weight gain in db/db mice and DIO/STZ rats.

Switching from daily basal insulin to weekly LAPSInsulin 115 + LAPSCA-Exendin-4 combination demonstrated improved glycemic and body weight control in db/db mice.

BACKGROUND

AIMS

METHODSIn vitro pharmacology of single formulation

Receptor binding affinity of LAPSInsulin 115 and LAPSCA-Exendin-4 in co-formulation was deter-mined by SPA (scintillation proximity assay) and SPR (surface plasmon resonance) analysis, respectively. Phosphorylation of insulin receptor was determined using commercially available kit after 10min treatment of either rh-Insulin or LAPSInsulin 115 in hIR-B/CHO cells. cAMP was assayed after 10 min treatment with LAPSCA-Exendin-4 in hGLP-1R/CHO cells. All results were normalized with LAPSInsulin 115 or LAPSCA-Exendin-4.

Pharmacokinetic prediction in humanHuman serum concentration vs time of LAPSInsulin 115 was predicted by Css-MRT method us-ing PK parameters from mice, rats and dogs. Human CL was derived from rule of exponent methods, and human Vd was from allometry applied correction factor. Single-dosing PK pa-rameter from P1 study of LAPSCA-Exendin-4 were utilized for the human PK simulation.

PK analysis of LAPSInsulin 115 and + LAPSCA-Exendin-4 combinationSerum concentration of test articles were determined using the a modified ELISA, and PK pa-rameters were calculated by a non-compartmental method. In multiple-dosing PK study, LAPSIn-sulin 115 and/or LAPSCA-Exendin-4 were administrated on a Q3D interval to mimic human QW dosing.

Efficacy study in db/db mice or DIO/STZ ratsLAPSInsulin 115 and/or LAPSCA-Exendin-4 were administrated to db/db mice or DIO/STZ rats with Q2D or Q3D dosing. HbA1c level was measured after 4~6 wk treatment. Body weight change was monitored every 2 days.

To evaluate the once-weekly potential of LAPSInsulin 115 + LAPSCA-Exendin-4 combination.

Statistical analysisThe HbA1c, body weight changes by LAPSInsulin 115, LAPSCA-Exendin-4, and their combination were analyzed by one way ANOVA with Dunnett’s post test.

Superior glycemic control Improved safety profile (BW gain ↓, Hypoglycemic risk ↓) 

Basal Insulin

Strong FBG controlAchieve A1c target 50~60%

Body weight gainHypoglycemic risk ↑

GLP-1RA

Modest FBG or PPG controlAchieve A1c target 40~60%

Body weight lossNo Hypoglycemic risk

Weekly basal insulin and GLP-1RA combination enabled by LAPS technology

LAPSCA-Exendin-4 [Ph2b, US & EU] Super-Agonist [Potent A1c Reduction & BWL] Flexible regimen from weekly to monthly Low Immunogenicity

LAPSInsulin 115 [EASD Poster #933] Low peak-to-trough ratio results in constant insulin levels

To evaluate the beneficial effects of LAPSInsulin 115 + LAPSCA-Exendin-4 combination in in vivo disease models.

LAPSInsulin 115 and LAPSCA-Exendin-4 showed similar and prolonged PK profiles compared with daily insulin and GLP-1RA, respectively.
