Pegcetacoplan

Following achievements in Asia, Roche's PNH treatment drug PIASKY (crovalimab) received its first FDA approval. This approval has spiked the competition between Roche and current market leader AstraZeneca. Additionally, the other pharma companies also geared up to launch their respective lead assets. LAS VEGAS, Sept. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), a rare disorder, shows a triad of features: intravascular hemolysis, thromboembolic events, and cytopenia. Manifestations vary among patients, making classification based on typical presentations challenging due to the disease's unpredictable nature. In 2023, the Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria diagnosed prevalent cases were ~12,000 cases in the 7MM, which might reach ~13,000 cases by 2034. In the 7MM, the highest number of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria diagnosed prevalent cases were observed in the US. Until 2007, PNH was a devastating disease without treatment for hemolysis and thrombosis, the leading cause of death in patients. However, the last decade saw a revolutionary shift with the advent of the anti-C5 agent eculizumab. It significantly reduced hemolysis, decreased transfusion dependency, and, crucially, lowered the thrombosis rate. The disease-modifying therapeutic strategy for paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria includes complement inhibition therapy, with drugs like SOLIRIS, ULTOMIRIS, and EMPAVELI approved by the FDA, and considered the gold standard. SOLIRIS, the pioneering therapy for PNH, was succeeded by ULTOMIRIS, both developed by Alexion Pharmaceuticals, offering C5 inhibitors as essential therapeutic options. Recent approvals of factor B and D inhibitors like FABHALTA (iptacopan) in the US and VOYDEYA (danicopan) in Japan aim to offer improved treatment with fewer side effects. Learn more about the FDA-approved paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria drugs @ Drugs for Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Treatment The European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) recommended crovalimab for treating PNH in adults and adolescents aged 12 and above in June 2024, based on findings from the global Phase III COMMODORE 2 clinical trial. The FDA accepted a biologics license application for crovalimab in September 2023 and subsequently approved it in June 2024 for treating PNH in adults and adolescents aged 13 years and older. Genentech, a subsidiary of Roche, has made the drug available in the US. In Japan, Chugai Pharmaceutical submitted a new drug application for PiaSky to the Japan Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW) in June 2023. The drug was approved in March 2024 and launched in May 2024 for patients with PNH aged 12 years and above. In February 2024, China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approved crovalimab for treating PNH in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older who have not previously received complement inhibitor treatment, following a priority review that began in August 2022. PiaSky is also undergoing review by other regulatory authorities, including those in Europe and Taiwan.

Emerging PNH therapies include Pozelimab (REGN3918) + Cemdisiran, OMS906, NM8074 (ruxoprubart), and others, reflecting a dynamic evolution in treatment strategies. Discover which therapies are expected to grab major paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria market share @ Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Market Report Pozelimab is a novel, fully human monoclonal antibody currently under investigation. It aims to inhibit complement factor C5, thereby preventing the destruction of red blood cells (hemolysis) responsible for symptoms in conditions like Paroxysmal Nocturnal Haemoglobinuria (PNH) and other diseases influenced by complement pathway activity. This IgG4 antibody binds tightly to both wild-type and variant forms of human C5, effectively blocking its function. In its ongoing development, pozelimab is also being studied in combination with Alnylam's cemdisiran, a siRNA C5 inhibitor. This investigational combination therapy is aimed at treating various complement-mediated disorders, including PNH and myasthenia gravis. OMS-906 is currently being developed to treat paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G), idiopathic immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis (ICGN), and arthritis. It can be administered either subcutaneously or intravenously. This drug candidate is a monoclonal antibody designed to target mannan-binding lectin serine protease 3 (MASP-3) to exert its therapeutic effects.

Sobi and Apellis Pharmaceuticals have shared positive late-stage results for their targeted C3 therapy in rare kidney disease patients. The phase 3 VALIANT trial has been evaluating the drug, pegcetacoplan, in patients with C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) or primary immune complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN). There are currently no treatments that target the underlying cause of either disease and approximately 50% of patients experience kidney failure within five to ten years of diagnosis. Pegcetacoplan is designed to regulate excessive activation of the complement cascade, a part of the body’s immune system, and already holds approvals to treat the rare blood disorder paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria under the brand names Empaveli and Aspaveli. VALIANT met its primary endpoint, demonstrating a 68% proteinuria (excess of protein in the urine) reduction in patients treated with pegcetacoplan compared to placebo, both in addition to background therapy, at week 26. Results were consistent among adult and adolescent patients, and those with native and post-transplant kidneys, the companies noted. Pegcetacoplan also showed statistical significance on secondary endpoints including a composite measure combining proteinuria reduction and estimated glomerular filtration rate stabilisation. VALIANT lead principal investigator Carla Nester, University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital, said: “Currently, many patients living with these rare diseases will eventually require a kidney transplant or lifelong dialysis, so there is an urgent need for a treatment that targets the underlying cause of these diseases. This positive data is a major advance for the rare kidney disease community.” All patients who have completed the VALIANT study have now been enrolled into the VALE long-term extension study. Sobi has exclusive commercialisation rights for systemic pegcetacoplan outside the US, where Apellis has exclusive rights. Apellis also holds global commercial rights for ophthalmological pegcetacoplan, including for geographic atrophy. Lydia Abad-Franch, head of research and development, medical affairs and chief medical officer at Sobi, said: “[This] announcement further strengthens our belief in pegcetacoplan’s potential to meet the critical needs of patients with these severe and life-threatening kidney conditions. We remain committed to progressing pegcetacoplan’s development and expanding its reach…” Sobi said it plans to submit a marketing application for the drug with the European Medicines Agency in 2025, while Apellis is aiming to submit a supplemental new drug application to the US Food and Drug Administration in early next year.
