  • Genmab and ADC Therapeutics Announce Amended Agreement for Camidanlumab Tesirine (Cami)
    Genmab and ADC Therapeutics Announce Amended Agreement for Camidanlumab Tesirine (Cami) Media Release Copenhagen, Denmark and Lausanne, Switzerland, October 30, 2020 • ADC Therapeutics to continue the development and commercialization of Cami • Genmab to receive mid-to-high single-digit tiered royalty Genmab A/S (Nasdaq: GMAB) and ADC Therapeutics SA (NYSE: ADCT) today announced that they have executed an amended agreement for ADC Therapeutics to continue the development and commercialization of camidanlumab tesirine (Cami). The parties first entered into a collaboration and license agreement in June 2013 for the development of Cami, an antibody drug conjugate (ADC) which combines Genmab’s HuMax®-TAC antibody targeting CD25 with ADC Therapeutics’ highly potent pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) warhead technology. Under the terms of the 2013 agreement, the parties were to determine the path forward for continued development and commercialization of Cami upon completion of a Phase 1a/b clinical trial. ADC Therapeutics previously announced that Cami achieved an overall response rate of 86.5%, including a complete response rate of 48.6%, in Hodgkin lymphoma patients in this trial who had received a median of five prior lines of therapy. Cami is currently being evaluated in a 100-patient pivotal Phase 2 clinical trial intended to support the submission of a Biologics License Application (BLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The trial is more than 50 percent enrolled and ADC Therapeutics anticipates reporting interim results in the first half of 2021. “We have a long-standing relationship with the ADC Therapeutics team and believe they are an ideal partner for the ongoing development and potential commercialization of Cami,” said Jan van de Winkel, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Genmab.

  • Predictive QSAR Tools to Aid in Early Process Development of Monoclonal Antibodies
    Predictive QSAR tools to aid in early process development of monoclonal antibodies John Micael Andreas Karlberg Published work submitted to Newcastle University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Engineering November 2019 Abstract Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have become one of the fastest growing markets for diagnostic and therapeutic treatments over the last 30 years with a global sales revenue around $89 billion reported in 2017. A popular framework widely used in pharmaceutical industries for designing manufacturing processes for mAbs is Quality by Design (QbD) due to providing a structured and systematic approach in investigation and screening process parameters that might influence the product quality. However, due to the large number of product quality attributes (CQAs) and process parameters that exist in an mAb process platform, extensive investigation is needed to characterise their impact on the product quality which makes the process development costly and time consuming. There is thus an urgent need for methods and tools that can be used for early risk-based selection of critical product properties and process factors to reduce the number of potential factors that have to be investigated, thereby aiding in speeding up the process development and reduce costs. In this study, a framework for predictive model development based on Quantitative Structure- Activity Relationship (QSAR) modelling was developed to link structural features and properties of mAbs to Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC) retention times and expressed mAb yield from HEK cells. Model development was based on a structured approach for incremental model refinement and evaluation that aided in increasing model performance until becoming acceptable in accordance to the OECD guidelines for QSAR models.

  • Comparative Safety and Efficacy of Anti-PD-1 Monotherapy, Chemotherapy
    Lv et al. Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer (2019) 7:159 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40425-019-0636-7 COMMENTARY Open Access Comparative safety and efficacy of anti-PD- 1 monotherapy, chemotherapy alone, and their combination therapy in advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma: findings from recent advances in landmark trials Jia-Wei Lv1†, Jun-Yan Li1†, Lin-Na Luo2†, Zi-Xian Wang2* and Yu-Pei Chen1* Abstract Recent phase 1–2 trials reported manageable safety profiles and promising antitumor activities of anti-PD-1 drugs (pembrolizumab, nivolumab, camrelizumab and JS001) with/without chemotherapy in recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (RM-NPC), however head-to-head comparison among these regimens is lacking. We aimed to comprehensively compare the efficacy and safety of different anti-PD-1 drugs, standard chemotherapy, and their combination therapy in RM-NPC. Adverse event (AE) and objective response rate (ORR) were assessed. The pooled incidence rates of grade 1–5/3–5 AEs were 74.1%/29.6, 54.2%/17.4, 92.3%/24.5, 96.8%/16.1, 91.2%/42.8, and 100%/87.9% for pembrolizumab, nivolumab, JS001, camrelizumab, chemotherapy and camrelizumab+chemotherapy, respectively, which suggested that nivolumab and pembrolizumab exhibited the optimal safety regarding grade 1–5 AEs whereas camrelizumab and nivolumab regarding grade 3–5 AEs. As second- or later-line therapy, ORR was higher with camrelizumab (34.1%), followed by pembrolizumab (26.3%), JS001 (23.3%), and nivolumab (19.0%); whereas ORR with first-line nivolumab reached 40%. Additionally, first-line camrelizumab+chemotherapy achieved a dramatically higher ORR than that with chemotherapy alone (90.9% vs.

  • Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber
    Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber TAILORING EXPECTATIONS How film costumes become the audience’s clothes ‘Bollywood’ film costume has inspired clothing trends for many years. Female consumers have managed their relation to film costume through negotiations with their tailor as to how film outfits can be modified. These efforts have coincided with, and reinforced, a semiotic of female film costume where eroticized Indian clothing, and most forms of western clothing set the vamp apart from the heroine. Since the late 1980s, consumer capitalism in India has flourished, as have films that combine the display of material excess with conservative moral values. New film costume designers, well connected to the fashion industry, dress heroines in lavish Indian outfits and western clothes; what had previously symbolized the excessive and immoral expression of modernity has become an acceptable marker of global cosmopolitanism. Material scarcity made earlier excessive costume display difficult to achieve. The altered meaning of women’s costume in film corresponds with the availability of ready-to-wear clothing, and the desire and ability of costume designers to intervene in fashion retailing. Most recently, as the volume and diversity of commoditised clothing increases, designers find that sartorial choices ‘‘on the street’’ can inspire them, as they in turn continue to shape consumer choice. Introduction Film’s ability to stimulate consumption (responding to, and further stimulating certain kinds of commodity production) has been amply explored in the case of Hollywood (Eckert, 1990; Stacey, 1994). That the pleasures associated with film going have influenced consumption in India is also true; the impact of film on various fashion trends is recognized by scholars (Dwyer and Patel, 2002, pp.

    Datamonitor Healthcare Trialtrove Biomedtracker Pharma intelligence | Pharma intelligence | Pharma intelligence | 2015 Post-ASH Report RACHEL MEIGHAN-MANTHA Principal Analyst, Citeline JOSEPH HEDDEN Senior Analyst, Datamonitor Healthcare Summary Profiled themes at the 57th Annual Meeting and Exposition of the American Society of Hematology (ASH), held December 5-8, 2015, in Orlando, Florida, included Genomic Profiling and Chemical Biology, Genome Editing and Gene Therapy, Epigenetic Mechanisms, Immunologic Treatments, Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine and Preventing Venous Thromboembolic Disease. This report will mainly focus on the theme of Immunologic Treatments because of the importance and popularity of immunotherapies for many different hematological cancers. Also covered in this report are the results from pivotal trials presented at ASH, as well as highlights from other drugs/therapies of interest. In addition, we felt it was important to cover first-in-human trials since (hopefully) some of these drugs/therapies will be in pivotal trials in a few years. At the end of the report, we’ve included a section showcasing drugs that had top- line results presented at ASH, followed by a list of other data presentations supplied by BioMedTracker (BMT). Accompanying links to BioMedTracker events along with changes to the drugs’ likelihood of approval (LOA) are also provided throughout the report. Finally, additional supplemental material related to ASH is listed in the Appendix. 2 Datamonitor Healthcare Trialtrove Biomedtracker

  • 3 Billionaires in Indiana See Net Worth Jump $2.3 Billion Or 17.2% in First Three Months of COVID-19 Pandemic
    EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE ON JULY 15, 2020 AT 12:00 AM 3 Billionaires in Indiana See Net Worth Jump $2.3 Billion or 17.2% in First Three Months of COVID-19 Pandemic Meanwhile State & Local Government Services Face Deep Cuts as Congress Stalls on New COVID-19 Financial Aid Package WASHINGTON—Indiana has 3 billionaires who collectively saw their wealth increase by $2.3 billion or 17.2% during the first three months of the COVID-19 pandemic even as the state’s economy was reeling from a huge spike in joblessness and a collapse in taxes collected, a new report by Americans for Tax Fairness (ATF) and Health Care for America Now (HCAN) shows. Between March 18—the rough start date of the pandemic shutdown, when most federal and state economic restrictions were in place—and June 17, the total net worth of the state’s 3 billionaires rose from $13.5 billion to $15.8 billion, based on an analysis of Forbes data. Forbes’ annual billionaires report was published March 18, 2020, and the most recent real-time data was collected June 17 from the Forbes website. This $2.3 billion increase in wealth is 60% of the projected $3.7 billion state revenue shortfall in fiscal years 2020 and 2021 combined due to the ​ ​ pandemic. Two Indiana billionaires—Carl Cook and Herb Simon—saw their wealth grow by 26% and 11%, respectively, during the pandemic while 741,000 of the state’s residents lost their jobs, 41,000 ​ ​ fell ill with the virus and 2,500 died from it.
