Topics• Continuing Need for New Medicines• R&D Pipeline
• Total Number of Medicines in Development, by Therapeutic Area
• Potential First-in-Class Medicines in Development• Orphan Diseases• Therapies Targeting Diseases with No Recently
Approved Therapies• Personalized Medicines in Development• Novel Scientific Strategies
• Conclusion
3
Introductiono U.S. leads the world in development
of new medicines
o Improving the length and QOL and reduced disease burden for individuals and society
o Focus: NME Clinical testing stage in human volunteers
4
Challenges of Drug Discovery
• Long/Complex Process – risk of failure at each step
• $1.2 billion cost to yield a single FDA-approved drug (includes cost of development failures)1
• 10-15 year span from R&D + FDA approval process time2
5
Annual & Cumulative New Drug Approvals Since 20003
6
Distribution of Products & Projects by Phase3
7
Distribution of Products and Projects by Therapeutic
Area/Phase3
8
Potential First-in-Class Medicines in Development, by Phase3
9
Potential First-in-Class Medicines in Development, by
Therapeutic Area3
10
Spotlight: DM II & Schizophrenia3
New Approach to Controlling Type II
Diabetes
Difficult-to-Treat Symptoms of
Schizophrenia
O Compound that controls blood sugar levels, or glycemia, independent of insulin pathways.
O Sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor
O Glycine reuptake inhibitor – could help normalize transmission of glutamate
11
Orphan Disease Designation by the FDA Over Time3
12
Spotlight: Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) 3
O Patients experience progressive difficulty breathing due to scarring of the lungs.
O There are currently no effective treatment options available, and the average patient with IPF dies within 3 years of diagnosis.
O A medicine in development targets connective tissue growth factor, which is elevated in the lungs of IPF patients.
13
Projects for Selected Diseases/Conditions with No
Approvals in 10 Years3
14
Spotlight on Therapies Targeting Diseases with No Recently Approved Therapies: Recent Progress
Against Lupus3
O Lupus: Complex, potentially fatal autoimmune disease that attacks healthy tissues from MULTIPLE organ systems
O At least 7 drugs in the last several years have suffered setbacks in clinical trials
O As of December 2011, there were 58 other projects in development to treat lupus or various aspects of lupus such as serious kidney complications.
15
Personalized Medicine Trials by Condition & Therapeutic Area, 1993-
20083
16
Distribution of Personalized Medicine Clinical Trials by
Therapeutic Area & Growth Over Time, 1993 - 20083
17
Spotlight: Melanoma, Lung Cancer, & Cystic Fibrosis3
O Vemurafenib (Zelboraf®) – Melanoma
O Crizotinib (Xalkori®) - Lung cancer
O Ivacaftor (Kalydeco®) - Cystic fibrosis
O Each is indicated for patients expressing a specific genetic mutation where the drug is known to be effective.
18
Examples of Selected Breakthrough Scientific Strategies3
19
Spotlight: RNAi & Gene Therapy3
RNAi Targeted Therapy Approach for Duchenne
Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)
Gene Therapy as a Possible Approach for Parkinson’s Disease
O DMD: most severe genetic disorderO Affects 1 in 3,500
newborn boysO targeted
restoration of the function of dystrophin
O Use of adeno-associated virus (AAV) as a vector to deliver neurturin to restore cells; protection from further degeneration
20
SummaryO Diverse clinical research programs
across many different therapeutic areas
O New treatments address both common conditions like cardiovascular disease and rare diseases like cystic fibrosis
O New hope for current and future patients
