"We were very encouraged by the results we saw in Part A of the study, notably that three out of the six patients in the high-dose cohort had evidence of stable disease by magnetic resonance imaging," said David Anderson, Ph.D., VBI’s Chief Scientific Officer. "In part B of the study, we are narrowing the enrollment criteria to first-recurrent GBM patients so that we may better assess the potential correlation between immunogenicity and tumor and clinical responses to VBI-1901. GBM is an incredibly aggressive and devastating disease with very few treatment options, and we believe VBI-1901 has the potential to help address this tragic unmet medical need."

The ongoing two-part study is a multi-center, open-label study conducted at The Neurological Institute of New York Columbia University Medical Center, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Massachusetts General Hospital.

About the Phase 1/2a Study Design

VBI’s two-part Phase 1/2a study is a multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation study of VBI-1901 in up to 28 patients with recurrent GBM:

Part A:

Dose-escalation phase that defined the safety, tolerability, and optimal dose level of VBI-1901 in recurrent GBM patients.
This phase enrolled 18 recurrent GBM patients across three dose cohorts of VBI-1901: 0.4 µg, 2.0 µg, and 10.0µg.

Part B:

Subsequent extension of the optimal dose level, 10.0 µg, as defined in the Part A dose escalation phase.
This phase is expected to enroll an expanded cohort of approximately 10 additional first-recurrent GBM patients.

VBI-1901 is administered intradermally and is adjuvanted with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), a potent adjuvant that mobilizes dendritic cell function. Patients in both phases of the study will receive the vaccine immunotherapeutic every four weeks until tumor progression.

Additional information, including a detailed description of the study design, eligibility criteria, and investigator sites, is available at ClinicalTrials.gov using identifier NCT03382977.

Updated 2019 Financial Guidance

Recent Business Highlights

Clinical/Guidelines

Results from a new analysis of TAILORx confirmed the original, definitive conclusions reported in 2018 with additional detail on clinical risk, focusing on patients with early-stage breast cancer age 50 years or younger. These findings, published in The New England Journal of Medicine and presented at the 2019 ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, showed that stratifying patients by clinical risk alone does not predict chemotherapy benefit.
Updated American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) guidelines established TAILORx-defined cutoffs for determining chemotherapy benefit with the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test in node-negative breast cancer, increasing the proportion of women who can be spared unnecessary treatment based on the landmark TAILORx and NSABP B-20 randomized clinical trials.
Recently updated ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) guidelines for early-stage breast cancer elevated the Breast Recurrence Score test to the highest 1A level of evidence based on the prospective TAILORx and PlanB studies.
Global Reimbursement

On June 20, the German Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) issued an exclusive nationwide reimbursement decision for the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test. This decision follows the conclusion of the German Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG) that only the Oncotype DX test has sufficient evidence to guide breast cancer adjuvant chemotherapy decisions based on results from the landmark TAILORx study.
On July 1, a three-year registry program started in Belgium to provide patients with funded access to the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test in breast cancer reference centers throughout the country.
Additional private insurers established new coverage for the Oncotype DX Genomic Prostate Score test, bringing the total number of U.S. covered lives to more than 116 million, including Medicare.
Multiple private insurers established reimbursement for the Oncotype DX AR-V7 Nucleus Detect test, bringing the total number of U.S. covered lives to more than 75 million, including Medicare.
Additional private insurers established reimbursement for the Oncotype DX Breast Recurrence Score test in patients with 1-3 positive nodes, bringing the total number of U.S. covered lives in this breast cancer population to more than 144 million, including Medicare.
Non-GAAP Disclosure

The company provides adjusted EBITDA and constant currency, which are non-GAAP financial measure, to supplement the financial information provided on a GAAP basis. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA excludes items that are included in GAAP income (loss) from operations, and excludes stock-based compensation expense and depreciation and amortization and their related tax effects. Constant currency is calculated by comparing the company’s quarterly average foreign exchange rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. The constant currency disclosures take current local currency revenue and translate it into U.S. dollars based upon the foreign currency exchange rates used to translate the local currency revenue for the applicable comparable period in the prior year, rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current period. Constant currency does not include any other effect of changes in foreign currency rates on the company’s results or business. The company believes that these non-GAAP measures reflect operating results that are more indicative of the company’s ongoing operating performance while improving comparability to prior periods, and, as such, may provide investors with an enhanced understanding of the company’s past financial performance and prospects for the future. In addition, the company’s management uses such non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate and assess its core operations and to make ongoing operating decisions. Non-GAAP information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measure to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as detailed in the tables accompanying this press release.

In June, the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) adopted a positive opinion for Dupixent (dupilumab, collaboration with Regeneron) recommending extending its approval in the EU to include adolescents 12 to 17 years of age with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis who are candidates for systemic therapy.
The FDA accepted for review the BLA for Sanofi’s MenQuadfi Meningococcal Polysaccharide Tetanus Toxoid Conjugate Vaccine candidate to help prevent meningococcal meningitis. The target action date for the FDA decision is April 25, 2020.
In June, the FDA approved Dupixent for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) in adults whose disease is not adequately controlled.
In May, the European Commission approved Dupixent for use in adults and adolescents 12 years and older as an add-on maintenance treatment for severe asthma with type 2 inflammation characterized by raised blood eosinophils and/or raised fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), who are inadequately controlled with high dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) plus another medicinal product for maintenance treatment.
In May, SAR341402 (insulin aspart), a rapid acting insulin, was submitted to the EMA for the treatment of Type I and II diabetes.
In April, the FDA approved Praluent (collaboration with Regeneron) to reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and unstable angina requiring hospitalization in adults with established cardiovascular disease.
At the end of July 2019, the R&D pipeline contained 83 projects, including 34 new molecular entities in clinical development. 35 projects are in phase 3 or have been submitted to the regulatory authorities for approval.

Portfolio update

Phase 3:

Topline results from three Phase 3 trials of Zynquista (sotagliflozin) in adults with type 2 diabetes from the InSynchrony clinical program were announced on July 26. Given the primary endpoint results of blood sugar control (HbA1c) reduction in the SOTA-CKD3 and SOTA-CKD4 studies, Sanofi provided notice to Lexicon that it is terminating the collaboration to develop, manufacture, and commercialize Zynquista in all ongoing global type 1 and type 2 diabetes programs. At this time, the ongoing Phase 3 clinical trials will continue and there will be no immediate changes. Sanofi has expressed willingness to work with Lexicon to ensure a smooth transition of the studies. Sanofi remains committed to working and supporting the investigators and patients enrolled in the studies while next steps are discussed with Lexicon.
Results from a phase 3 study evaluating Soliqua/Suliqua (insulin glargine 100 Units/mL and lixisenatide) in adults with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled by GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) treatments were presented at the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Scientific Sessions in June. The study met the primary objective by demonstrating a statistically superior reduction of average blood sugar level (HbA1c) after 26 weeks, compared with continuing GLP-1 RA treatment.
Pivotal phase 3 ICARIA-MM trial results were presented at the 2019 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting in June and demonstrated that isatuximab added to pomalidomide and dexamethasone (isatuximab combination therapy) showed statistically significant improvements compared to pomalidomide and dexamethasone (pom-dex) alone in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
A phase 3 study evaluating cemiplimab, a PD-1 inhibitor, in adjuvant treatment for Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (CSCC) started.
Dupilumab , moved into phase 3 in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
Fitusiran , a siRNA inhibitor targeting AT3, entered phase 3 for pediatric hemophilia.
Nirsevimab ( SP0232, collaboration with Medimmune), a monoclonal antibody, entered phase 3 for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)
Phase 2:

SAR440340/REGN3500 (collaboration with Regeneron), an investigational IL-33 antibody, met the primary endpoint of improvement in loss of asthma control when comparing monotherapy to placebo in a phase 2 proof-of-concept trial The trial also met a key secondary endpoint, demonstrating SAR440340 monotherapy significantly improved lung function compared to placebo. Patients treated with Dupixent monotherapy did numerically better than SAR440340 across all endpoints, although the trial was not powered to show differences between active treatment arms. The combination of SAR440340 and Dupixent did not demonstrate increased benefit compared to Dupixent monotherapy in this trial.
Phase 1:

A phase 1 trial evaluating SAR441255, a trigonal GLP1R/GIPR/GCGR agonist was initiated.
SAR441236 , a tri-specific neutralizing anti-HIV mAb, entered into phase 1.
An additional seven research projects have been discontinued to enhance the company’s focus on delivering first and best in class medicines

Collaboration

In June, Sanofi and Google announced that they will establish a new virtual Innovation Lab with the ambition to transform how future medicines and health services are delivered by tapping into the power of emerging data technologies. The collaboration aims to change how Sanofi develops new treatments and will focus on three key objectives: to better understand patients and diseases, to increase Sanofi’s operational efficiency, and to improve the experience of Sanofi’s patients and customers.

"Dr. Peck arrives at the right time for our company, as we advance ARV-110 through a Phase 1 clinical trial and expect to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial of ARV-471 in the third quarter of 2019," said John Houston, Ph.D., President and CEO of Arvinas. "Ron is a highly accomplished clinician with a strong track record of successful drug development, leading novel oncology programs from the earliest phases through to registration. His experience is strongly aligned with our goals at this pivotal time for the company."

"Arvinas is leading the industry with its new and exciting technology platform of PROTAC targeted protein degraders," said Dr. Peck. "The company has tremendous momentum. With one clinical program, which also received Fast Track designation from FDA, and another program entering the clinic soon, I anticipate Arvinas will be the first company in the field to have clinical data with a targeted protein degrader. I am excited to be joining Arvinas, and look forward to pursuing the development of PROTAC protein degraders to benefit patients and address unmet medical needs in oncology and in other devastating and life-threatening diseases."

Prior to his work at Tesaro, Dr. Peck served as the CMO of Kolltan Pharmaceuticals, a privately-held clinical-stage biotechnology company where he oversaw the clinical development of monoclonal antibodies targeting receptor tyrosine kinases. Dr. Peck began his industry career at Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS), where he spent 15 years in drug development, eventually serving as Vice President, YERVOY (ipilimumab) Global Development Lead. At BMS, he played a key role in the approval and commercialization of YERVOY (ipilimumab) across all indications and contributed to the successful development of multiple other oncology assets, including IXEMPRA (ixabepilone). Early in his BMS career, Dr. Peck contributed to the life cycle development of ABILIFY (aripiprazole) within the neuroscience clinical research organization. Dr. Peck received his bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., his M.D. from Thomas Jefferson University Medical College in Philadelphia, PA., and completed a residency and hematology/oncology fellowship at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C before serving as Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Virginia.

About PROTAC Protein Degraders

Arvinas’ PROTAC protein degraders harness the body’s own natural protein disposal system to degrade disease-causing proteins. PROTAC protein degraders recruit an E3 ligase to tag the target protein with ubiquitin, which directs its degradation through the proteasome, a large protein complex that breaks down the ubiquitinated target protein into small peptides and amino acids. As the target protein is degraded, the PROTAC protein degrader is released and acts iteratively to destroy additional target protein.

PROTAC protein degraders offer numerous potential advantages as therapeutics, including broad tissue distribution, routes of administration that include oral delivery, and simpler manufacturing than other new modalities, such as cell-based therapies. Arvinas has developed and optimized a proprietary library of protein targeting ligands, E3 ligase ligands, and linkers, which allow the company to rapidly identify and optimize efficient protein degraders with favorable characteristics for successful drug development.
