  • Letter to FDA on Review of Biogen's Drug
    June 2, 2021 Janet Woodcock, M.D. Acting Commissioner of Food and Drugs Food and Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Ave Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002 RE: Food and Drug Administration’s Review of Biogen’s drug Aducanumab for Alzheimer’s disease Dear Acting Commissioner Woodcock: The American Geriatrics Society (AGS), an organization dedicated to improving the health and quality of life of all older adults, is writing to express our concern that the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) upcoming review and potential approval of Aducanumab for use in treating patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is premature given the lack of sufficient evidence to support that Aducanumab reduces progression of Alzheimer’s disease and that the potential benefits as a treatment for patients with MCI and AD could outweigh the potential harms. The AGS is a not-for-profit organization comprised of nearly 6,000 geriatrics health professionals who are devoted to improving the health, independence, and quality of life of all older adults. Our members include geriatricians, geriatrics nurse practitioners, social workers, family practitioners, physician assistants, pharmacists, and internists who are pioneers in advanced-illness care for older individuals, with a focus on championing interprofessional teams, eliciting personal care goals, and treating older people as whole persons. We provide leadership to healthcare professionals, policymakers, and the public by implementing and advocating for programs in patient care, research, professional and public education, and public policy. We are familiar with the information that has been released to date. Aducanumab, a human monoclonal antibody developed by Biogen, was assessed in two identical phase III randomized controlled trials, ENGAGE and EMERGE, planned to provide 18-month outcome data in patients with MCI and AD, all with positive amyloid PET scans.

  • Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease and Blood–Brain Barrier Drug Delivery
    pharmaceuticals Review Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease and Blood–Brain Barrier Drug Delivery William M. Pardridge Department of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90024, USA; [email protected] Received: 24 October 2020; Accepted: 13 November 2020; Published: 16 November 2020 Abstract: Despite the enormity of the societal and health burdens caused by Alzheimer’s disease (AD), there have been no FDA approvals for new therapeutics for AD since 2003. This profound lack of progress in treatment of AD is due to dual problems, both related to the blood–brain barrier (BBB). First, 98% of small molecule drugs do not cross the BBB, and ~100% of biologic drugs do not cross the BBB, so BBB drug delivery technology is needed in AD drug development. Second, the pharmaceutical industry has not developed BBB drug delivery technology, which would enable industry to invent new therapeutics for AD that actually penetrate into brain parenchyma from blood. In 2020, less than 1% of all AD drug development projects use a BBB drug delivery technology. The pathogenesis of AD involves chronic neuro-inflammation, the progressive deposition of insoluble amyloid-beta or tau aggregates, and neural degeneration. New drugs that both attack these multiple sites in AD, and that have been coupled with BBB drug delivery technology, can lead to new and effective treatments of this serious disorder. Keywords: blood–brain barrier; brain drug delivery; drug targeting; endothelium; Alzheimer’s disease; therapeutic antibodies; neurotrophins; TNF inhibitors 1. Introduction Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) afflicts over 50 million people world-wide, and this health burden costs over 1% of global GDP [1].

    Cigna National Formulary Coverage Policy Prior Authorization Cushing’s – Isturisa® (osilodrostat tablets) Table of Contents Product Identifier(s) National Formulary Medical Necessity ................ 1 64705 Conditions Not Covered....................................... 2 Background .......................................................... 2 References .......................................................... 3 Revision History ................................................... 3 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The following Coverage Policy applies to health benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Certain Cigna Companies and/or lines of business only provide utilization review services to clients and do not make coverage determinations. References to standard benefit plan language and coverage determinations do not apply to those clients. Coverage Policies are intended to provide guidance in interpreting certain standard benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Please note, the terms of a customer’s particular benefit plan document [Group Service Agreement, Evidence of Coverage, Certificate of Coverage, Summary Plan Description (SPD) or similar plan document] may differ significantly from the standard benefit plans upon which these Coverage Policies are based. For example, a customer’s benefit plan document may contain a specific exclusion related to a topic addressed in a Coverage Policy. In the event of a conflict, a customer’s benefit plan document always supersedes the information in the Coverage Policies. In the absence of a controlling federal or state coverage mandate, benefits are ultimately determined by the terms of the applicable benefit plan document. Coverage determinations in each specific instance require consideration of 1) the terms of the applicable benefit plan document in effect on the date of service; 2) any applicable laws/regulations; 3) any relevant collateral source materials including Coverage Policies and; 4) the specific facts of the particular situation.
