Biotech, focusing on |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
. Diseases affecting the back of the eye, particularly the retina |
|
|
|
|
. EYET believes that these diseases have the greatest unmet medical need and |
|
|
represent the largest potential market opportunities in ophthalmology. |
|
|
|
Collaboration with Pfizer |
|
|
|
|
|
|
FUNDING |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
. In February 2003, Pfizer paid EYET $100 million, consisting of a |
|
|
|
$75 million up-front license fee and a $25 million equity investment. |
|
|
|
. Pfizer's financial obligations include equity investments of up to an additional $25 million, |
|
|
funding of a majority of the ongoing development costs for Macugen, payments of up to |
|
|
$195.5 million based on regulatory milestones and payments of up to $450 million based |
|
|
on sales milestones. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARKETING |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
. Pfizer and EYET agreed to copromote Macugen in the U.S. and to share in profits and losses. |
|
. EYET granted Pfizer the exclusive right to develop and commercialize Macugen outside the U.S. |
|
pursuant to a royalty-bearing license. |
|
|
|
|
|
Under the collaboration, EYET is entitled to participate in the U.S. in detailing Pfizer's product |
|
Xalatan® for the treatment of glaucoma. |
|
|
|
|
|
First product candidate, Macugen |

TRIALS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently in two Phase 2/3 pivotal clinical trials for |
|
|
|
|
. Wet AMD an age-related macular degeneration and for |
|
|
|
|
, Diabetic macular edema, known as DME. |
|
|
|
|
|
Both AMD and DME are serious diseases of the retina that can lead to |
|
|
|
severe vision loss and blindness. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Market potential |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AGE-RELATED |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
. AMD is the leading cause of severe vision loss and blindness in patients over the |
|
|
age of 50 in the developed world. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
. In the U. S. there are more than 1.6 million cases of wet AMD, with |
|
|
|
approximately 200,000 new cases arising each year. |
|
|
|
|
. Because AMD generally affects adults over 50 years of age, EYET expects the |
|
|
incidence of AMD to increase significantly as the baby boom generation ages and |
|
|
overall life expectancy increases. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
DIABETIC-RELATED |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
. Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in working age adults and |
|
|
a leading cause of vision loss in diabetics. |
|
|
|
|
|
. DME is a common complication of diabetic retinopathy and often results in |
|
|
severe vision loss and blindness. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
. In the United States, there are approximately 500,000 people suffering from DME, |
|
|
with approximately 75,000 new cases each year. |
|
|
|
|
|
. EYET expects the incidence of DME to increase as the number of people |
|
|
|
with diabetes increases. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
UNMET NEEDS |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because the existing treatments for both wet AMD and DME have significant |
|
|
limitations, there is a significant unmet medical need for a new therapy for these diseases. |
|
|
FDA process |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MARKETING APPROVAL |
|
|
|
|
|
|
. Seeking marketing approval for the 0.3 mg dose of Macugen for the treatment of wet AMD. |
|
. Based on the results from the first year of two Phase 2/3 pivotal clinical trials of Macugen |
|
|
EYET plans to prepare and file a new drug application, or NDA, |
|
|
|
with the FDA the third quarter of 2004 |
|
|
|
|
|
FAST TRACK |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The FDA has given "fast track" designation to Macugen for the treatment of both |
|
|
wet AMD and DME. We have entered into a. |
|
|
|
|
|
Competition |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
. There are also a number of companies working to develop new drugs and other |
|
|
therapies to treat wet AMD and DME. |
|
|
|
|
|
. EYET believes that following product candidates are in Phase 2 or Phase 3 clinical trials |
|
|
- Genentech & Novartisare collaborating to develop a humanized |
|
|
|
monoclonal antibody fragment, administered by intravitreal injection, that targets |
|
|
VEGF for the treatment of wet AMD |
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Alcon, Inc. is developing a steroid for the treatment of predominantly |
|
|
|
classic subfoveal wet AMD. This drug candidate is injected behind the eye using a |
|
|
customized injector inserted around the eye. |
|
|
|
|
|
- Miravant Medical Technologies is developing a photodynamic therapy that is |
|
|
similar to Visudyne for the treatment of wet AMD. |
|
|
|
|
|
- Bausch & Lomb Incorporated and Control Delivery Systems, Inc. are developing |
|
|
a surgically placed non-erodable intraocular implant for the delivery of steroids to |
|
|
treat DME and swelling resulting from other causes. |
|
|
|
|
- Oculex Pharmaceuticals is developing a bioerodable steroid implant for the |
|
|
|
treatment of persistent macular edema. |
|
|
|
|
|
- Eli Lilly & Co. is developing an orally administered inhibitor of an enzyme |
|
|
|
named PKC beta for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. |
|
|
|
|
In addition, there are a number of other companies that are developing anti-VEGF technologies. |
|
Some of these companies may seek to apply their technologies to AMD, DME and other |
|
|
ophthalmic indications. |
