FDA
On June 8, 2012, the U. S. Food and Drug Administration approved
pertuzumab
injection (PERJETA, Genentech, Inc.) for use in combination with
trastuzumab and docetaxel for the treatment of patients with HER2-positive
metastatic breast cancer who have not received prior anti-HER2 therapy or
chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Pertuzumab is a recombinant humanized
monoclonal antibody that targets the extracellular dimerization domain (Subdomain
II) of HER2, and thereby blocks ligand-dependent heterodimerization of HER2 with
other HER family members, including EGFR, HER3 and HER4.
EMA
march 4, 2013
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has approved Roche’s PERJETATM
(pertuzumab) RG1273 for patients with previously untreated HER2-positive
metastatic breast cancer (mBC). PERJETA is approved in combination with
Herceptin® (trastuzumab) and docetaxel in adult patients with HER2-positive
metastatic or locally recurrent unresectable breast cancer, who have not received
previous anti-HER2 therapy or chemotherapy for their metastatic disease

MM-302
Nanotherapeutic encapsulation of liposomal doxorubicin with an
anti-HER2 antibody fragments coupled to its surface.
Upon administration of MM-302, the immunoliposome allows for
specific delivery of doxorubicin to tumors overexpressing the
HER2 receptor. Once inside the cancer cell, the liposome breaks
down and releases doxorubicin intracellularly,
promoting cell death.

ARRY-380
ARRY-380 is an orally active, small molecule, reversibleselective inhibitor of the HER-2 tyrosine kinase receptor
with antitumor activity in HER2-positive breast cancer in
vitro and in vivo .
In multiple preclinical tumor models, ARRY-380 was well
tolerated and demonstrated significant dose-related
tumor growth inhibition that was superior to
trastuzumab and lapatinib.

These findings led to a phase I trial which found ARRY-380 to be
well tolerated, with rash and diarrhea as the most frequent
adverse effects

AFATINIB
Afatinib has demonstrated preclinical activity in HER2-positive and
triple-negative xenograft models of breast cancer, and clinical
activity in phase I studies.
The most common treatment-related adverse events of EGFR-TKIs in
general, and afatinib in particular, are gastrointestinal and cutaneous
side effects, specifically diarrhea and rash
The recommended phase II dose of afatinib is 50 mg orally daily
based on phase I trials in patients with advanced solid tumor
malignancies
Afatinib is in Phase III clinical development in breast cancer, NSCLC
and head and neck cancer

MGAH22
Chimeric IgG1 anti-HER2 antibody based on mouse clone 4D5,
the precursor to trastuzumab.
Engineered to maintain the antigen-binding properties of the
original antibody while optimizing its interactions with human
FcϒRs.
The optimized Fc domain confers enhanced ADCC against all
HER2+ tumor cells tested, including cells resistant to
trastuzumab’s anti-proliferative activity or expressing low HER2
levels.

Biosimilar or biobetter?
Significantly improved ADCC-activity promising a significantly
better therapeutic outcome for all patients eligible for treatment
with Trastuzumab.
Simultaneously, the fully human nature of Tras-GEX’ host cell lines
avoids the common immunogenic reactions against host-derived
non-human components.
Biosimilars are structural imitations of the originator, whereas
biobetters are improvements to the originator biological molecule
TrasGEX
TrasGEX Phase II is estimated to start in Q3 / 2013.

(Anti-HER-2 & Anti-CD3) in HER-2 Low Expressing HormoneRefractory Advanced Breast Cancer Patients (ABC). Cardoso F et al.
Results: Of the planned 40 pts, 28 were enrolled. Recruitment was
prematurely terminated due to a strategic change in the sponsor's
clinical development program.
Eight of 26 evaluable patients (30.8%) had SD at day 70.
The median TTP in the evaluable population was 65.5 days (95%,
CI: 43-98).
The most frequently observed AEs were pyrexia (74.1%),
headache (40.7%), chill (33.3%), and vomiting (29.6%). AEs were
mostly of mild or moderate intensity and the majority (73.8%)
resolved within one day.

U3-1287 (AMG-888)
The maximum administered dose was 20 mg/kg q2w. The most frequent
AEs related to U3-1287 were fatigue (21.1%), diarrhea (12.3%), nausea
(10.5%), decreased appetite (7.0%), and dysgeusia (5.3%). No patient
developed anti-U3-1287 antibodies. In these heavily pretreated patients,
stable disease was maintained ≥ 9 weeks in 19.2% in part 1 and ≥ 10
weeks in 25.8% in part 2.
CONCLUSIONS:
U3-1287 treatment was well tolerated, and some evidence of disease
stabilization was observed. PK data support U3-1287 dosing of 9 to 20
mg/kg every 2 to 3 weeks. Combination studies of U3-1287 are ongoing.
MM-121
A Phase 1/2 study evaluating MM-121 in combination with
erlotinib is ongoing in patients with non-small cell lung
cancer, as well as a Phase 1 dose escalation trial testing the
safety and pharmacokinetics of MM-121.

DEVELOPING A NEW DRUG
On average, it takes between nine and 17 years, and
only one in approximately 19,817 candidate
compounds actually becomes a drug.
