  • Regeneron Needs a New Plan B for Eylea
    November 27, 2017 Regeneron needs a new plan B for Eylea Madeleine Armstrong Regeneron’s efforts to extend the lifespan of its blockbuster Eylea franchise via combinations have fallen flat again, raising the question of whether it can find anything that can best Eylea alone. With competition on the horizon from Novartis’s rival wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) project, brolucizumab, Eylea sales are forecast to flatten after 2020 – something that Regeneron cannot now counter with combos (see table below). Regeneron’s stock was down 3% in premarket trading this morning, but the shares opened down just 1%. Investors might have been reassured by the fact that full data from the Hawk and Harrier studies of brolucizumab, released earlier this month, were not the smash hit that Novartis had hoped for. This could allow Eylea to keep its dominant position in the wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) market for some time to come. Top wet AMD drugs in 2022 Annual indication sales ($m) Product Company Status 2016 2018e 2020e 2022e Eylea Regeneron/Bayer/Santen Pharmaceutical Marketed 3,584 3,875 4,073 3,942 Lucentis Novartis/Roche Marketed 2,354 2,271 1,924 1,460 Brolucizumab Novartis Phase III - - 319 937 Source: EvaluatePharma. And if positive, the phase III Panorama study of Eylea monotherapy in diabetic retinopathy, due to report in the first half of next year, could open up another avenue for growth for the company’s most valuable product. But even the most optimistic Regeneron bulls will have to admit that Eylea’s sales are likely to be eroded by the market entry of brolucizumab, expected in 2019 or 2020.

  • Section 21 Ophthalmological Preparations Bevacizumab
    Section 21 Ophthalmological Preparations Bevacizumab - Addition Application submitted by International Council of Ophthalmology 1. Summary statement of the proposal for inclusion, change or deletion We propose the inclusion of bevacizumab, an angiogenesis inhibitor that is used off label in the treatment of proliferative (neovascular) eye diseases. Although bevacizumab was initially approved by the US FDA for the treatment of colorectal cancer, the visual acuity and anatomical results that were observed when bevacizumab was used to treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD) led to widespread use of off-label bevacizumab for the treatment of exudative AMD by 2006.1 It was also observed that the adverse side effects associated with intravenous bevacizumab administration appeared to be avoided with intravitreal administration of the drug.1 Since 2006, there have been reports of over fifty one ocular entities being treated with bevacizumab, generally those associated with neovascularization or vascular leakage as a consequence of an underlying disease.1 These include several types of choroidal neovascularization, retinal neovascularization, macular edema, neovascular glaucoma and radiation-induced eye diseases.1 Intravitreal bevacizumab administration is now used as a first line therapy for several diseases by many retina specialists and accounts for more than 50% of anti-VEGF administrations in the US.1 Additionally, the markedly lower cost of bevacizumab as compared to similarly effective drugs such as ranibizumab has led it its adoption for treatment of exudative AMD throughout the world.1 We therefore suggest that this drug be added to the WHO's existing list of essential eye medicines for use in developing countries. 2.

  • 2019 FDA Biopharmaceutical Approvals: a Record Year for Follow-On Products, but Is Innovation Lagging? Bioplan Associates, Inc
    Confidential White Paper – Not for Distribution 2019 FDA Biopharmaceutical Approvals: A Record Year for Follow-on Products, But is Innovation Lagging? BioPlan Associates, Inc. January 2020 Introduction Although 2019 was overall a good year for biopharmaceutical product approvals, there was a lower percentage of approvals for fully new, innovative products compared with prior years. This may indicate problems with recent years’ pharmaceutical industry increased investment in biopharmaceutical vs. drug R&D, with a relative increase in resulting innovative product approvals not showing up yet. It may be too early to make conclusions regarding the extent of this pipeline trend, but the record portion of follow-on product approvals (63% of approvals) can be viewed as positive or negative for the industry. Biopharmaceuticals are here defined as prescription therapeutic products containing active agents manufactured using biotechnology methods, i.e., using living organisms (1). Figure 1 shows the numbers of recombinant and non-recombinant biopharmaceuticals approved by FDA since 1981, when the first recombinant protein received approval. Total biopharmaceutical approvals have increased over the years while remaining steady in the past few years.

Several oligonucleotide therapeutics, both antisense and RNAi, also received approval, but these are synthetically manufactured drugs and not considered biopharmaceuticals.
