  • Misinterpretation of Time-To-First Event Curves Can Lead to Inappropriate Treatment
    AGORA | CORRESPONDENCE Misinterpretation of time-to-first event curves can lead to inappropriate treatment To the Editor: Great care should be taken when assessing the consistency of treatment effect over time based on a survival curve plot, and even more so when a treatment affects a repeating event end-point, such as exacerbations, rather than an event that can occur only once, like death. In their recent editorial in the European Respiratory Journal,SUISSA and ARIEL [1] make the assertation that survival functions plotted from Kaplan–Meier estimates from figure 1b in the IMPACT study [2] “clearly show that the difference in the rate of exacerbation between LAMA/LABA/ICS and LAMA/LABA over follow-up is due to the first month’s surge, with practically no differences in the subsequent rates between the two groups”. However, this statement is based on a misunderstanding of the survival analyses presented. The events plotted on the figure are the first moderate or severe COPD exacerbations experienced by a patient in the IMPACT study. The statements made by SUISSA and ARIEL [1] about exacerbation rates refer to the rate of first exacerbations only, and not to the rate of all exacerbations during the study. Their conclusion that the rates of first exacerbations, and ratio between those rates changes over time is correct. However, this is entirely in line with statistical theory for repeated events with overall constant rates. It cannot be used to support any conclusion that the difference in the rate of exacerbation is due to a “first month’s surge”. The “digitised” curve of first events behaves entirely consistently with constant rate events.

  • UK Specialty Pharma Companies Outperform Biotech
    September 18, 2008 UK specialty pharma companies outperform biotech Amy Brown Shares in companies judged to be risky prospects have performed poorly this year, and the life sciences sector has been hit particularly badly by increasingly risk-averse investors. In particular, the fate of small biotechnology companies has not been pretty; even an absence of news, as opposed to actual clinical failure, has been enough to send share prices tumbling. Specialty pharma companies, however, have escaped such a severe mauling. This bodes well for BTG, which this morning announced the acquisition of fellow UK company Protherics, with the aim of giving its specialty pharma ambitions a boost. The table below shows the performance of UK listed biotechnology and specialty pharma companies. While both groups have declined, an investor more heavily exposed to the latter group will be doing considerably better. With their lower risk business model and a more realistic chance of achieving profitability, this is not too surprising. Specialty pharma will focus on later stage products, leaving the high risk R&D to someone else. This is exactly what BTG plans to do following the acquisition of Protherics. Over the next few months, the group will be culling early stage projects from the pipeline, while looking for niche, late stage products to acquire. Given the early stage of the deal, full plans have not yet been announced, but some commentators questioned the lack of a definite therapeutic focus emerging. If the deal proceeds, an update should be given alongside preliminary results in May, and investors will be looking out for a more defined strategy.
