I interim data - Next step
Börje Darpö, VP Development
2Bone disorders (MIV-701) Multiple indications
Bone surface
- MIV-701 selectively inhibits the bone and
cartilage degrading enzyme cathepsin K - Osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and bone metastases
- Target profile
- Improved bone quality (c/f bisphosphonates)
- Bone growth capability
- Excellent long term tolerability
- Follow-on program with CD selection near term
Cath K
Osteoclast
3Bone disorders (MIV-701) Growing market
- Market
- Approx 100 million patients in major growing
markets (osteoporosis only) - Strong interest in cathepsin K inhibition from
major pharma companies for various indications as
osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and bone metastasis - Patent/generic competition
- Patent applications being processed
- Expected patent protection until 2025
- Partner strategy
- Establish broad industrial partnership on program
including MIV-701 and follow up compounds (2008) - Status
- Clinical phase I trials interim data available
4CTX suppression translates into clinical effect
Odanacatib Phase IIb results 12-month study in
postmenopausal women
5MIV-701 Phase I set up Biomarkers,
pharmacokinetics and tolerability - with Proof
of Concept in post-menopausal women
Study initiated March 2007. To be completed Q4,
2007. Interim data
6MIV-701 decreases bone resorptionSustained
reduction of CTX by 40-50
Placebo n4
Treated n8
CTX-I in 14 day dosing with 300 mg in
postmenopausal women Efficacy maintained over 14
days
7Safety and tolerability (interim data)
- No significant changes in hematology or clinical
chemistry - No rash or skin-related AEs
- Most common adverse event
- Day 1 Mild/moderate adverse event, mainly GI
related - One Grade 4 event
- Day 2-14 Only mild and the majority classified
as not substance related
8Summary Phase I interim data
- Proof-of-concept in terms of expected
pharmacodynamic response (sCTX-1), with a 50
sustained reduction during 14 days
9 Next steps
- Our aim is to enter a collaboration agreement
with big pharma to develop the MIV-701
program/Cathepsin K for different indications - There is an interest in cathepsin K as a target
for different indications, which will be
evaluated in collaboration with a partner - The phase I study with MIV-701 has confirmed
proof-of-concept for the Cath K program, which is
a key step before initiating discussions with
potential partners - Broad preclinical program follow-on candidate
drug likely to be selected shortly -
