HORIZON SCANNING STATUS REPORT ● DECEMBER 2020 i Preface The PCORI Health Care Horizon Scanning System (HCHSS) conducts horizon scanning of new and emerging health care technologies and innovations with high potential for disruption to the current standard of care to better inform patient-centered outcomes research investments at PCORI. The HCHSS provides PCORI with a systematic process to identify and monitor technologies and innovations in health care that are in PCORI’s priority areas of interest and to create an inventory of interventions that have the highest potential for disruption to the current standard of care in terms of patient outcomes, health disparities, care delivery, infrastructure, access, and/or costs. It is also a tool for the public to identify information on selected new health care technologies and interventions. Any investigator or funder of research can use the PCORI HCHSS to help select research topics. The health care technologies and innovations of interest for horizon scanning are those that have yet to become part of established health care practices. These interventions are in late stages of research and development or very early phases of adoption, except in the case of new applications of already-diffused technologies. Consistent with the definitions of health care interventions provided by the National Academy of Medicine and the Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research, PCORI is interested—at present—primarily in innovations in drugs and biologics, medical devices, and procedures within its selected priority areas of interest for horizon scanning. PCORI may choose, upon future consideration, to expand its focus to include a wider range of interventions (eg, systems innovations). Horizon scanning involves 2 processes. The first is identifying and monitoring new and evolving health care interventions that purportedly hold potential to diagnose, treat, or otherwise manage a disease or condition or to improve care delivery. The second is analyzing the relevant health care context in which these new and evolving interventions would exist to understand their potential for disruption to the standard of care. The goal of the PCORI HCHSS is not to predict future utilization and costs of any health care intervention; rather, the reports are intended to help inform and guide planning and prioritization of research resources. This edition of the Status Report is the fourth of 4 volumes planned for 2020 and lists topics (ie, interventions intended for a specific use within a specific patient population) that have been identified and are being monitored. Content in this report was current as of November 9, 2020. The reader should be aware that, although forward-looking statements were accurate as of this currency date, no warranty is provided regarding the accuracy of these statements at the time of publication.

  • Parkinson Disease-Associated Cognitive Impairment
    PRIMER Parkinson disease-associated cognitive impairment Dag Aarsland 1,2 ✉ , Lucia Batzu 3, Glenda M. Halliday 4, Gert J. Geurtsen 5, Clive Ballard 6, K. Ray Chaudhuri 3 and Daniel Weintraub7,8 Abstract | Parkinson disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, affecting >1% of the population ≥65 years of age and with a prevalence set to double by 2030. In addition to the defining motor symptoms of PD, multiple non-motor symptoms occur; among them, cognitive impairment is common and can potentially occur at any disease stage. Cognitive decline is usually slow and insidious, but rapid in some cases. Recently, the focus has been on the early cognitive changes, where executive and visuospatial impairments are typical and can be accompanied by memory impairment, increasing the risk for early progression to dementia. Other risk factors for early progression to dementia include visual hallucinations, older age and biomarker changes such as cortical atrophy, as well as Alzheimer-type changes on functional imaging and in cerebrospinal fluid, and slowing and frequency variation on EEG. However, the mechanisms underlying cognitive decline in PD remain largely unclear. Cortical involvement of Lewy body and Alzheimer-type pathologies are key features, but multiple mechanisms are likely involved. Cholinesterase inhibition is the only high-level evidence-based treatment available, but other pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies are being tested. Challenges include the identification of disease-modifying therapies as well as finding biomarkers to better predict cognitive decline and identify patients at high risk for early and rapid cognitive impairment. Parkinson disease (PD) is the most common movement The full spectrum of cognitive impairment occurs in disorder and the second most common neurodegenera­ individuals with PD, from subjective cognitive decline tive disorder after Alzheimer disease (AD).

  • An Overview of the Role of Hdacs in Cancer Immunotherapy
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Immunoepigenetics Combination Therapies: An Overview of the Role of HDACs in Cancer Immunotherapy Debarati Banik, Sara Moufarrij and Alejandro Villagra * Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, School of Medicine and Health Sciences, The George Washington University, 800 22nd St NW, Suite 8880, Washington, DC 20052, USA; [email protected] (D.B.); [email protected] (S.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +(202)-994-9547 Received: 22 March 2019; Accepted: 28 April 2019; Published: 7 May 2019 Abstract: Long-standing efforts to identify the multifaceted roles of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) have positioned these agents as promising drug candidates in combatting cancer, autoimmune, neurodegenerative, and infectious diseases. The same has also encouraged the evaluation of multiple HDACi candidates in preclinical studies in cancer and other diseases as well as the FDA-approval towards clinical use for specific agents. In this review, we have discussed how the efficacy of immunotherapy can be leveraged by combining it with HDACis. We have also included a brief overview of the classification of HDACis as well as their various roles in physiological and pathophysiological scenarios to target key cellular processes promoting the initiation, establishment, and progression of cancer. Given the critical role of the tumor microenvironment (TME) towards the outcome of anticancer therapies, we have also discussed the effect of HDACis on different components of the TME. We then have gradually progressed into examples of specific pan-HDACis, class I HDACi, and selective HDACis that either have been incorporated into clinical trials or show promising preclinical effects for future consideration.

  • Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) Agents
    Therapeutic Class Overview Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) Agents INTRODUCTION • Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is 1 of 4 conditions known as dystrophinopathies, which are inherited, X-linked myopathic disorders due to a defect in the dystrophin gene that results in the primary pathologic process of muscle fiber degradation. The hallmark symptom is progressive weakness (Darras 2018[a], Darras 2018[b], Muscular Dystrophy Association [MDA] 2019). The other 3 conditions include: Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), which is a mild form of DMD; an intermediate presentation between BMD and DMD; and DMD-associated dilated cardiomyopathy, which has little or no clinical ○ skeletal or muscle disease (MDA 2019). • DMD symptom onset is in early childhood, usually between the ages of 2 and 3 years old. The proximal muscles are affected first, followed by the distal limb muscles. Generally, the lower external muscles will be affected before the upper. The affected child may have difficulties jumping, walking, and running (MDA 2019). • The prevalence of DMD ranges from 1 to 2 per 10,000 live male births; female-manifesting carriers are rarer, but can present with a range of symptoms that vary in their severities (Birnkrant et al 2018, Darras 2018[a], Emflaza Food and Drug Administration [FDA] Medical Review 2017). • The clinical course and lifespan of patients with DMD is relatively short. Individuals are usually confined to a wheelchair by age 13, and many die in their late teens or twenties from respiratory insufficiency or cardiomyopathy. Although survival until adulthood is more common now, very few patients survive past the 3rd decade (Darras 2018[a]).

Pediatric patients exposed to Oxervate: Dompé confirms that Oxervate is not yet approved in Europe for use in children and no clinical studies have been conducted in this population. As far as the company is aware, four (4) Neurotrophic Keratitis (NK) pediatric patients, aged from 2 to 12 years of age, have been exposed to Oxervate. A 6-year-old child with severe NK secondary to Stuve-Wiedmann syndrome was treated with Oxervate under “Temporary Authorization for Use” (ATU) in France. Dompé reports that the corneal ulcer was completely healed at the end of the treatment. There were signs of corneal sensitivity recovery by month 8 post-treatment. A 9-year-old child with NK was treated with Oxervate under ATU in France. Dompé reports that the lesion improved, but did not completely heal with the treatment. There is no other follow-up information available. A 12-year-old child with severe NK was treated with Oxervate under Expanded Access in the US.
