How should one go about providing sound quantitative answers to these questions?5 Answer 1: Quantifying variability Quantifying multiple sources of variability simultaneously within the patient population reduces overall unexplained variability patient patient patient feature 1 feature 3 feature 1 patient feature 2 Unexplained Unexplained Unexplained variability in variability in variability in patients with patients with patients with rare diseases rare diseases rare diseases Result: The ability to predict more accurate progression rates for heterogeneous subpopulations of patients in clinical trials 6 Answer 2: Multiple data sources Understanding the ‘universe’ of a given disease’s heterogeneity patient patient feature 1 feature 1 Unexplained Unexplained variability in variability in patient patient feature 2 feature 2 patients with ALL patients rare diseases with rare from a single diseases study Result: The ability to more accurately account for the heterogeneity in rare diseases and avoid biased conclusions on few data sources 7 Answer 3: Drug-trial-disease modeling Disease Disease progression and Longitudinal characterization model observational, registries, RWD & clinical trial data Clinical Trial Drug Simulator Trial Drug effects model / Placebo effects model, Disease modifying dropout model effect RWD & clinical trial data 8 Putting it altogether • Start with an understanding of what sponsors can practically use to design clinical trials, and reverse engineer 푆 푆 푡 = 0 1/훽 훽 훽 −훽푟푡 푆0 + 1 − 푆0 푒 푐표푛푡 휃푝표푤푒푟 푇푉푃 = 휃 푖 휃푐푎푡푖 푖 푖 푟푒푓 푐표푒푓푓 푓 푆; 훼,훽 훤 훼 + 훽 = ∙ 푆 훼−1 ∙ 1 − 푆 훽−1 훤 훼 + 훤 훽 Execution 9 Clinical Data Shared with C-Path Clinical data: 146 studies: 77,054 subjects 90000 80000 70000 TTC Transplant Therapeutics Consortium PRO Patient Reporting Outcomes Consortium 60000 Huntington's Disease Friedreich’s Ataxia Database 50000 Fredric's Ataxia Type 1 Diabetes Subjects 40000 Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Healthy Kidney Study 30000 Polycystic kidney disease Multiple sclerosis 20000 Tuberculosis Parkinson's disease 10000 Alzheimer's disease 0 Jun 2014 Jan 2016 Jun 2017 Jan 2019 Jan 2015 Jun 2015 Jun 2016 Jan 2017 Jan 2018 Jun 2018 May 2019 Nonclinical: 179 studies; 11775 subjects.

We achieve this by leading teams that share data, knowledge, and expertise, resulting in sound, consensus-based science. Benefits of the Consortium Model The most effective tools for evaluating medical product safety and efficacy incorporate input from the sponsors who conduct the trials, the patients who participate in the trials, and the regulators who ultimately apply the tools. The consortium model engages each of these stakeholders to arrive at consensus on how to design trials, what data to collect by what method, and what amount of change is meaningful to patients. The successful collaborations that grow out of the consortium model serve to de-risk decisions in drug development and ensure sustainable progress. 4 Critical Path Institute - Annual Report - 2016 LETTER FROM THE CEO Dear Friends and Supporters, The past year has been another one of growth for us at C-Path, which is a testament to the value that our pre-competitive consensus science model brings to advancing innovative tools and methods to help de-risk decision making in drug development and regulatory review.

It is collecting, standardizing, and analyzing data about MS with the goal of qualifying new measures of disability for the disease. MSOAC is the newest of the eight consortia of Critical Path Institute (C-Path), a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to accelerating drug development by delivering on the mission outlined by FDA’s critical path initiative. Mission Multiple Sclerosis Outcome Assessments Consortium (MSOAC) has a mission to develop improved clinical outcome measures for Multiple Sclerosis (MS) trials. The overarching goal of MSOAC is to develop a sensitive, clinically meaningful, and reliable clinician-reported outcome (ClinRO) measure that can be qualified by the regulatory agencies for use as a primary endpoint in clinical trials aiming to reduce, stop, or reverse MS disability progression. In order to achieve its aim it is: Creating data standard for MS, which will be developed in collaboration with

  • Critical Path Institute Celebrates Expanded Operations with Opening of European Headquarters
    Critical Path Institute Celebrates Expanded Operations with Opening of European Headquarters C-Path in the EU will work to accelerate the development of new therapies through innovative methodologies for endorsement by regulators of pharmaceutical products TUCSON, Ariz., January 17, 2019 — Critical Path Institute (C-Path) is excited to announce the launch of Critical Path Institute, Ltd. (C-Path, Ltd.) in Ireland, a fully-owned subsidiary that will enable C-Path to increase its activity in the European Union and broaden its global operations as it works to accelerate the development of therapies in a wide range of diseases and medical conditions. As a nonprofit that builds consensus among its stakeholders from around the world to improve public health, the organization shares expertise, data, risks and costs to move regulatory science forward. As its U.S. counterpart does, C-Path, Ltd. will form consortia of scientists and clinicians from the biopharmaceutical industry, government regulatory agencies, academic institutions and patient groups. These consortia will collaborate to develop novel methodologies — such as biomarkers, clinical outcome assessment instruments, models and clinical trial simulation tools and databases — and will submit evidence packages to European regulatory agencies (as well as agencies in the U.S. and Japan) for review. The novel tools and methodologies will be made freely available to the broader scientific community. “After our initial startup phase, we anticipate increasing C-Path activities in the European Union,” said C-Path Executive Director, European Office, Graham Higson, M.Sc. “We look forward to bringing our expertise to bear on European Research Infrastructure programmes sponsored by the European Commission, such as those led by the Innovative Medicines Initiative.” Shortly after it was founded in 2005, C-Path began forging relationships with European entities.
