`
`This overview of 25 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and five Fc fusion protein therapeutics provides brief descriptions
`of the candidates, recently published clinical study results and on-going Phase 3 studies. In alphanumeric order, the
`2011 therapeutic antibodies to watch list comprises AIN-457, bapineuzumab, brentuximab vedotin, briakinumab,
`dalotuzumab, epratuzumab, farletuzumab, girentuximab (WX-G250), naptumomab estafenatox, necitumumab,
`obinutuzumab, otelixizumab, pagibaximab, pertuzumab, ramucirumab, REGN88, reslizumab, solanezumab, T1h,
`teplizumab, trastuzumab emtansine, tremelimumab, vedolizumab, zalutumumab and zanolimumab. In alphanumeric
`order, the 2011 Fc fusion protein therapeutics to watch list comprises aflibercept, AMG-386, atacicept, Factor VIII-Fc
`and Factor IX-Fc. Commercially-sponsored mAb and Fc fusion therapeutics that have progressed only as far as Phase
`2/3 or 3 were included. Candidates undergoing regulatory review or products that have been approved may also be
`in Phase 3 studies, but these were excluded. Due to the large body of primary literature about the candidates, only
`selected references are given and results from recent publications and articles that were relevant to Phase 3 studies are
`emphasized. Current as of September 2010, the information presented here will serve as a baseline against which future
`progress in the development of antibody-based therapeutics can be measured.
`
`Introduction
`
`The pharmaceutical and biotechnology
`industry is currently investing substan-
`tial resources in the development of anti-
`body-based therapeutic products. Novel
`monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been
`entering clinical study at a rate of over 40
`per year since 2007 and new products are
`being approved at a steady pace.1 Hundreds
`of mAbs, as well as novel Fc fusion proteins
`that are composed of binding peptides or
`proteins fused to the Fc domain of immu-
`noglobulin G, are undergoing clinical
`study as potential treatments for disease.
`By the end of 2010, a total of 30 of these
`candidates (25 mAb and five Fc fusion
`protein) were in Phase 2/3 or Phase 3
`clinical studies sponsored by commercial
`firms, and these are included on the 2011
`antibody-based therapeutics to watch list.
`A total of 26 mAbs in commercially-
`sponsored Phase 2/3 or Phase 3 clinical
`studies were included on the 2010 anti-
`bodies to watch list.2 In alphanumeric
`order by mAb name, these candidates
`were: 131-I mAb 81C6, bapineuzumab,
`belimumab,
`briakinumab,
`dalotu-
`zumab,
`epratuzumab,
`farletuzumab,
`figitumumab, galiximab, girentuximab
`
`inotuzumab ozogamicin,
`(WX-G250),
`ipilimumab, mepolizumab, naptumomab
`estafenatox, ocrelizumab, otelixizumab,
`pagibaximab, pertuzumab, ramucirumab,
`reslizumab,
`solanezumab,
`tanezumab,
`teplizumab,
`trastuzumab
`emtansine,
`vedolizumab and zalutumumab.
`Nine of the 26 mAbs on the 2010 list
`were not included in the 2011 version for
`various reasons. Two mAbs (belimumab
`and ipilimumab) advanced to regulatory
`review, all studies of two mAbs (galix-
`imab and 131-I mAb 81C6) were sus-
`pended or terminated and development
`of five (figitumumab, inotuzumab ozo-
`gamicin, mepolizumab, ocrelizumab and
`tanezumab) reverted to Phase 2 studies.
`New to the 2011 list are eight mAbs that
`entered a first Phase 3 clinical study or re-
`entered a Phase 3 study since September
`2009. In alphanumeric order by mAb
`name, these are: AIN-457, brentuximab
`vedotin, necitumumab, obinutuzumab,
`REGN88, T1h, tremelimumab and zano-
`limumab. Two (trelimumab and zano-
`limumab) were previously in Phase 3
`studies that were terminated prior to
`2009, and so were not on the “antibodies
`to watch in 2010” list. As a consequence
`of these changes to the 2010 list, there
`
`are 25 “antibodies to watch” in 2011.
`The complete list of the 25 mAbs in alpha-
`numeric order by target appears in Tables
`1, 3 and 5.
`Information about mAbs that are in
`regulatory review or approved for mar-
`keting by the United States Food and
`Drug Administration (US FDA) are listed
`in Tables 2, 4 and 6 for comparison.
`Two mAbs, catumaxomab and nimotu-
`zumab, that are approved for marketing
`outside of the US should also be noted.
`Catumaxomab
`(Removab®; Fresenius
`Biotech GmbH, Trion Pharma) is a
`mouse/rat-derived, bispecific mAb that
`targets the epithelial cell adhesion mol-
`ecule (EpCAM) on tumor cells and CD3
`on T cells.3 The product was approved
`for marketing in the European Union in
`April 2009 for treatment of patients with
`malignant ascites. Catumaxomab is in an
`on-going Phase 3 study [NCT00822809]
`as a treatment of malignant ascites due to
`epithelial cancer.
`Nimotuzumab
`(BIOMAb-EGFR,
`Thera-CIM; Biocon, YM Biosciences,
`Oncosciences)
`is a humanized IgG1
`mAb that targets the epithelial growth
`factor receptor (EGFR).4 The product is
`approved for marketing in a number of

`information about Fc fusion proteins
`that are in regulatory review or approved
`for marketing by the FDA are listed
`in Table 8.
`Commercially-sponsored mAb and
`Fc fusion protein therapeutics that have
`progressed only to Phase 2/3 or Phase 3
`were included. Candidates undergoing
`
`regulatory review or products already on
`the market may also be in Phase 3 studies,
`but these were excluded. MAbs in devel-
`opment sponsored solely by academic,
`government and non-profit organizations
`were also excluded. Due to the large body
`of primary literature about the 30 candi-
`dates on the 2011 watch list, only selected
`
`references are given, and results from
`recent publications and articles that were
`relevant to Phase 3 studies are empha-
`sized. Current as of September 2010, the
`information presented here will serve as a
`baseline against which future progress in
`the development of antibody-based thera-
`peutics can be measured.

`
`Eight New mAbs
`in Phase 3 Clinical Studies
`
`Of the eight mAbs that entered (or re-
`entered) Phase 3 clinical studies recently,
`five (zanolimumab, obinutuzumab, bren-
`tuximab vedotin, tremelimumab, neci-
`tumumab) are potential treatments for
`cancer indications (Table 1) and three
`(T1h, REGN88, AIN-457) are being
`studied as treatments for immunological
`disorders (Table 3). Four of these mAbs
`target antigens that are unique compared
`to those targeted by mAb products already
`on the market or in regulatory review.
`The antigens are: CD4 (target of zanoli-
`mumab), CD30 (target of brentuximab
`vedotin), CD6 (target of T1h) and inter-
`leukin (IL)-17A (target of AIN-457).
`Zanolimumab
`(HuMax-CD4,
`MDX-CD4; TenX Biopharma)
`is a
`human IgG1 mAb that targets CD4 on
`the surface of T cells. The mAb has been
`shown to inhibit or deplete T cells through
`a variety of mechanisms such as alteration
`of T-cell receptor signal transduction,
`Fc-dependent CD4 receptor down-mod-
`ulation and antibody dependent cellular
`cytotoxicity (ADCC).5 Zanolimumab has
`been evaluated as a treatment for a variety
`of diseases characterized by T-cell disor-
`ders, including rheumatoid arthritis, pso-
`riasis and lymphoma. The current focus of
`Phase 3 clinical development is on cuta-
`neous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs), which
`are rare lymphomas presenting primarily
`in the skin and include mycosis fungoides
`
`and Sézary syndrome.6 Zanolimumab
`was designated a Fast Track candidate as
`a treatment for CTCL patients who have
`failed current therapy and an Orphan
`drug specifically for treatment of mycosis
`fungoides by the FDA.
`Zanolimumab was assessed in two
`Phase 2 studies as a treatment for early
`(Hx-CD4-007; NCT00071071) and late
`(Hx-CD4-008; NCT00071084)
`stage
`CTCL.7 Initiated in 2003, both of these
`multicenter Phase 2 studies were non-ran-
`domized, uncontrolled (i.e., no placebo
`arm was included), open label and single
`group assignment. Prior to enrollment,
`patients in both studies had been previ-
`ously treated with at least one treatment
`regimen and had failed or relapsed. For
`both studies, patients were administered
`intravenous (iv) doses of zanolimumab over
`15 min on a weekly basis. Seventeen infu-
`sions were given over 16 weeks, with a
`follow up visit four weeks later. Response
`rates, duration of responses, relief of
`symptoms and the safety profile of the
`mAb were evaluated in the 38 mycosis
`fungoides patients and nine Sézary syn-
`drome patients who enrolled in the two
`studies. The studies were designed as
`single arm evaluations of 280 mg doses of
`zanolimumab, but data review indicated
`that T-cell depletion might be inadequate.
`Additional study arms with doses of 560
`mg for mycosis fungoides patients and
`980 mg for Sézary syndrome patients were
`then added.
`
`The Hx-CD4-007 (NCT00071071)
`study included 25 early stage (IB-IIA)
`mycosis fungoides patients, 11 and 14 of
`which were administered 280 and 560 mg
`doses of zanolimumab,
`respectively.7
`The Hx-CD4-008
`(NCT00071084)
`study included a total of 22 patients
`dosed as follows: nine late stage (IIB-
`IVB) mycosis fungoides and four Sézary
`syndrome patients received 280 mg
`doses of zanolimumab and four late
`stage (IIB-IVB) mycosis fungoides and
`five Sézary syndrome patients received
`980 mg doses of zanolimumab.7 An objec-
`tive response, based on composite assess-
`ment of the index lesion disease severity
`score, was obtained by 13 mycosis fungoi-
`des patients (3 of 20 at 280 mg dose level,
`7 of 14 at 560 mg dose level and 3 of 4 at
`980 mg dose level). One of four and one
`of five Sézary syndrome patients who were
`administered 280 mg or 980 mg doses of
`zanolimumab, respectively, obtained an
`objective response. The response rate of
`56% in the high dose group was obtained
`with a median response of 81 weeks.
`Increased titers of anti-drug antibodies
`were observed in only one patient. Adverse
`events (AEs) included inflammatory skin
`reactions and infections; nine infections
`were deemed drug-related although no
`dose relation was apparent.
`A Phase 3
`study
`(Hx-CD4-110;
`NCT00127881) of zanolimumab as a
`treatment for mycosis fungoides started
`by Genmab in 2005 was discontinued in
`2008 due to slow enrollment and a need

`by the company to reserve resources at
`that time. TenX Biopharma acquired the
`mAb in 2010 and re-initiated enrollment
`in the study, which is designed as non-ran-
`domized, open label, dose escalation, fol-
`lowed by open label and single arm. Adult
`patients (18 years or older) with mycosis
`fungoides (Stage IB-IVB) or Sézary syn-
`drome who are refractory or intolerant to
`bexarotene and one other standard ther-
`apy will receive 12 weekly infusions. The
`primary outcome measure is efficacy as
`measured by physician’s global assessment
`(PGA); the estimated date for final data
`collection for the PGA is February 2011.
`Obinutuzumab (RO5072759, GA101;
`Genentech/Roche), a glyco-engineered
`anti-CD20 IgG1 mAb, is undergoing
`evaluation in combination with other
`drugs in two Phase 3 studies as a treat-
`ment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL)
`and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
`Obinutuzumab differs from the marketed
`anti-CD20 ofatumumab and rituximab
`in its mechanisms of action. The mAb is
`a Type II antibody and so has a distinct
`effector function profile that includes
`reduced binding to C1q and lower levels
`of CDC but potent induction of cell death
`through caspase-independent apoptosis.8
`Enhanced activity was correlated with a
`modified elbow hinge residue (valine at
`Kabat position 11 instead of leucine).9
`Obinutuzumab also contains a glyco-
`engineered Fc region, with bisected, com-
`plex, non-fucosylated oligosaccharides
`attached to asparagines 297, that allows
`the mAb to bind with increased affinity
`to FcγRIII.9
`Obinutuzumab is being evaluated as a
`monotherapy in an on-going open-label,
`dose-escalating Phase 1/2 study with a
`randomized Phase 2 part (NCT00517530)
`of patients with CD20+ malignant disease.
`The study was initiated in September
`2007 and results for the first 12 patients
`were
`reported
`in December 2008.10
`Obinutuzumab was administered by iv
`infusion at a flat dose on days 1, 8 and 22
`and subsequently every three weeks for a
`total of nine infusions. The dose was esca-
`lated according to a 3 + 3 design; doses
`ranging from 50–800 mg were adminis-
`tered to patients who had follicular NHL
`(nine patients), diffuse large B-cell lym-
`phoma (one patient), CLL (one patient)
`
`or Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (one
`patient). No dose-limiting toxicity was
`observed. The most common AEs were
`infusion-related
`reactions;
`six minor
`infections were observed. The pharmaco-
`kinetics of the mAb showed a dose-depen-
`dent increase in exposure, but significant
`inter- and intra-patient variability was
`noted. At the time of the report, 7 of 12
`patients had responded to treatment by
`day 85. The objective response rate (ORR)
`was 58%, with complete response in three
`patients (25%) and partial response in
`four patients (33%).10
`Obinutuzumab in combination with
`chlorambucil is undergoing evaluation in
`a Phase 3 study (NCT01010061) of adult
`(18 years and older) patients with previ-
`ously untreated CLL. The open label,
`randomized study will have three arms:
`(1) 1 g doses of obinutuzumab iv admin-
`istered on days 1, 8 and 15 in cycle 1 and
`on day 1 of cycles 2–6 in combination
`with 0.5 mg/kg chlorambucil adminis-
`tered orally on day 1 and 15 of each cycle;
`(2) 375 mg/m2 rituximab iv administered
`on day 1 in cycle 1 and 500 mg/m2 on
`day 1 of cycles 2–6 in combination with
`chlorambucil administered as in arm 1;
`(3) chlorambucil only administered as in
`arm 1. The primary outcome measure is
`progression-free survival as assessed every
`two weeks while patients are on study
`treatment, 28 days after last dose and at
`intervals for at least 5 years of follow-up.
`Secondary outcome measures
`include
`response rates, duration of response and
`disease-free survival in patients with com-
`plete response, overall survival, molecu-
`lar remission, minimal residual disease,
`safety profile, pharmacokinetics of obinu-
`tuzumab and patient reported outcomes.
`The estimated enrollment is 786 patients
`and the estimated study completion date
`is February 2022.
`A second Phase 3 study (NCT-
`01059630; GADOLIN) is investigating
`the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab in
`combination with bendamustine in adult
`patients with rituximab-refractory, indo-
`lent NHL. This open label, randomized
`study will compare results for the com-
`bination of drugs with those obse
