NONCLINICAL SUMMARY 2.6.1. INTRODUCTION This dossier is being submitted in support of a marketing authorization application (MAA) for a fixed-dose combination (FDC) film-coated tablet that contains the active substances emtricitabine (FTC), rilpivirine (RPV, which is also referred to as TMC278 throughout this document), and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF, TDF). Emtricitabine and TDF are antiretroviral agents developed by Gilead Sciences that have been approved for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection as stand-alone agents Emtriva® (Commission Decision granted on 20 ) and Viread® (Commission Decision granted on 20 ), and in a FDC product Truvada (emtricitabine/tenofovir DF [FTC/TDF]; Commission Decision granted on 20 ). Emtricitabine, a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), and TDF, a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NtRTI), are listed as preferred agents in United States (US) and international treatment guidelines {15207}, {12716}, {14065}. Emtricitabine and TDF are also approved for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in combination with efavirenz (EFV), a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI). This FDC product is Atripla (efavirenz/emtricitabine/tenofovir DF [EFV/FTC/TDF]; Commission Decision granted on 20 ). These products are currently approved in the US, the European Community, and other countries worldwide for use in adults. In some regions, Emtriva and Viread are approved for use in adolescents; Emtriva, which is also available as an oral solution formulation, may be administered to children as young as 4 months of age. Rilpivirine, an NNRTI, is an investigational agent that is being submitted for approval by Tibotec BVBA. Gilead Sciences has coformulated FTC and TDF, the standard of care NRTI backbone, with RPV into a FDC tablet. This FDC tablet is referred to as emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (FTC/RPV/TDF; dose strength 200/25/300 mg, respectively) throughout this document. Each FTC/RPV/TDF FDC tablet contains FTC, RPV, and TDF at the same dosages as recommended for the individual components, i.e., 200 mg of FTC, 25 mg RPV (27.5 mg rilpivirine hydrochloride is equivalent to 25 mg RPV), and 300 mg of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (equivalent to 245 mg tenofovir disoproxil or 136 mg of tenofovir [TFV]). The FTC/RPV/TDF FDC tablet has demonstrated bioequivalence to each of the individual dosage forms (FTC, TDF, and RPV). It is proposed that the FTC/RPV/TDF FDC tablet be indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and taken orally once daily with a meal. In accordance with the advice received from the European Medicines Evaluation Agency (EMA) at the EMA Strategy meeting held on 20 (see meeting minutes provided in Module 1.2, Annex 5.14), the MAAs for RPV as a single agent and for the FTC/RPV/TDF FDC tablet are being submitted in parallel by Tibotec BVBA and Gilead Sciences, respectively. CONFIDENTIAL Page 4 07 August 2010 Emtricitabine/Rilpivirine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Section 2.6.1 Introduction Final Emtricitabine, RPV, and TDF have been assessed individually in comprehensive nonclinical studies. As the RPV component is a new chemical entity, this FDC MAA dossier contains full data on this new component while providing the key data on the Truvada (i.e. FTC, TDF, and FTC/TDF) components. All Truvada studies considered to support the FDC are included to ensure that this is a ‘stand-alone dossier.’ This is in agreement with the feedback received at the presubmission meeting with the EMA on 20 and with the meeting with the Rapporteur/Co-Rapporteur on 20 (see Module 1.2.5.14, final minutes). To assist the reviewer, a listing of all the FTC, TDF, FTC/TDF, and EFV/FTC/TDF nonclinical reports is provided in Module 2.4, Section 2.4.7. Information from all nonclinical studies with FTC, RPV, and TDF should be considered in the context of the substantial clinical experience with FTC and TDF within antiretroviral combination therapy for the treatment of HIV-1 infection, the Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical experience with RPV, and with RPV administered in combination with Truvada (FTC/TDF). 2.6.1.1. Emtricitabine Emtricitabine is a NRTI. It is the active ingredient in Emtriva 200 mg capsules and 10mg/mL oral solution that have been approved in the US, the European Community, and other countries worldwide in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. The international birthdate for FTC is 20 . Emtricitabine is a synthetic analogue of the naturally occurring 2ƍ-deoxycytidine, a pyrimidine nucleoside. The chemical name of FTC is 5-fluoro-1-[(2R,5S-2-hydroxymethyl)- 1,3-oxathiolan-5-yl]cytosine. Emtricitabine is the (-) enantiomer of the compound and has also been referred to as (-)-2’,3’-dideoxy-5-fluoro-3’-thiacytidine. It has a molecular formula of C8H10FN3O3S and a molecular weight of 247.24. The chemical structure of FTC is as follows: N O H2N N O F OH S Following absorption, FTC is phosphorylated by cellular enzymes to emtricitabine 5'-triphosphate (FTC-TP), the active metabolite. Emtricitabine 5'-triphosphate inhibits the activity of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase through high affinity binding, competing with the natural substrate deoxycytidine 5'-triphosphate. Emtricitabine 5'-triphosphate is efficiently incorporated into the nascent (viral) DNA chain by HIV-1 RT resulting in termination of DNA synthesis due to the lack of a hydroxyl group in the 3’- position of the sugar moiety of FTC, which in turn inhibits viral replication. In a clinical study, the intracellular half-life of FTC-TP in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was 39 hours. Intracellular triphosphate levels increased with dose, but reached a plateau at doses of 200 mg or greater. Emtricitabine has activity against retroviruses and hepadnaviruses.

  • Evaluating the Translational Potential of Progesterone Treatment Following
    Wong et al. BMC Neuroscience 2014, 15:131 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2202/15/131 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Evaluating the translational potential of progesterone treatment following transient cerebral ischaemia in male mice Raymond Wong1, Claire L Gibson2*, David A Kendall3 and Philip MW Bath1 Abstract Background: Progesterone is neuroprotective in numerous preclinical CNS injury models including cerebral ischaemia. The aim of this study was two-fold; firstly, we aimed to determine whether progesterone delivery via osmotic mini-pump would confer neuroprotective effects and whether such neuroprotection could be produced in co-morbid animals. Results: Animals underwent transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. At the onset of reperfusion, mice were injected intraperitoneally with progesterone (8 mg/kg in dimethylsulfoxide). Adult and aged C57 Bl/6 mice were dosed additionally with subcutaneous infusion (1.0 μl/h of a 50 mg/ml progesterone solution) via implanted osmotic minipumps. Mice were allowed to survive for up to 7 days post-ischaemia and assessed for general well-being (mass loss and survival), neurological score, foot fault and t-maze performance. Progesterone reduced neurological deficit [F(1,2) = 5.38, P = 0.027] and number of contralateral foot-faults [F(1,2) = 7.36, P = 0.0108] in adult, but not aged animals, following ischaemia. In hypertensive animals, progesterone treatment lowered neurological deficit [F(1,6) = 18.31, P = 0.0001], reduced contralateral/ipsilateral alternation ratio % [F(1,2) = 17.05, P = 0.0006] and time taken to complete trials [F(1,2) = 15.92, P = 0.0009] for t-maze. Conclusion: Post-ischemic progesterone administration via mini-pump delivery is effective in conferring functional improvement in a transient MCAO model in adult mice.

Biological Description Description Entecavir is a guanosine nucleoside analogue used in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Entecavir therapy can be associated with flares of the underlying hepatitis B during or after therapy, but has not been linked to cases of clinically apparent liver injury. Targets(IC50) HBV( HepG2 cell): EC50:3.75nM In vitro BMS-200475 has a EC50 of 3.75 nM against HBV. It is incorporated into the protein primer of HBV and subsequently inhibits the priming step of the reverse transcriptase. The antiviral activity of BMS-200475 is significantly less against the other RNA and DNA viruses[1]. Entecavir is more readily phosphorylated to its active metabolites than other deoxyguanosine analogs (penciclovir, ganciclovir, lobucavir, and aciclovir) or lamivudine. The intracellular half-life of entecavir is 15 h[2]. In vivo Daily oral treatment with BMS-200475 at doses ranging from 0.02 to 0.5 mg/kg of body weight for 1 to 3 months effectively reduces the level of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) viremia in chronically infected woodchucks[3]. Cell Research BMS 200475 is prepared in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and diluted with appropriate medium containing 2% fetal bovine serum. HepG2 2.2.15 cells are plated at a density of 5×105 cells per well on 12-well Biocoat collagen-coated plates and are maintained in a confluent state for 2 to 3 days before being overlaid with 1 mL of medium spiked with BMS 200475.
