Tobacco Use Is the Single Largest Preventable Cause of Death in the US
Cancer – bladder, cervix, esophagus, kidney, larynx, leukemia, lung, oral cavity, pancreas, stomach Cardiovascular disease – atherosclerosis, stroke, coronary heart disease Respiratory disease – COPD, pneumonia, impaired lung development and growth, impaired pulmonary function, poor asthma control Reproductive effects – SIDS, infertility, low birth weight, pregnancy complications Others – cataracts, diminished health status, low bone density, hip fractures, peptic ulcer disease

Forced-switch parallel proof-of-concept study Assessed exposure to biomarkers of tobacco
exposure following short-term ad libitum use of 3 electronic products vs dual (regular + electronic) vs cessation.
Baseline measurements - regular cigarettes on Day -1 Switch - Post-product use measurements Days 1-6 Change from baseline in biomarkers of exposure

Impact of Tobacco Use
Tobacco induces CYP1A Constitutive activity of CYP1A low in normal
individuals, however substantially upregulated If preclinical testing suggests CYP1A catalyzed
metabolism: Consider testing in vivo, impact of smoking status on PK in early clinical pharmacology study before Phase II/III
Mitigates risk of treatment failure in cancer patients who continue to smoke during treatment

Early Phase Oncology Drug Development – Focus Change
Yesterday Today

Noncytotoxic oncology therapeutics
Opportunity for HNS >60 studies (Celerion - since 2011)
across variety of targets - VEGFR, EGFR, FGFR, MET, RET, BTK…
FIH – SAD/MAD, DDI, NDA-enabling, BA, FE, Timing of meal, ADME, pH, TQT, cQT, RI, HI, Smoking effect, Palatability

Novel Treatments in Oncology – Kinase Inhibitors
Some kinase inhibitors are used to treat cancer Kinase inhibitors is a substance that blocks a type
of enzyme called a kinase Human cells have many different kinases, and
they help control important functions cell signaling, metabolism, division, and survival
Certain kinases are more active in some types of cancer cells and blocking them may help keep the cancer cells from growing Kinase inhibitors may also block the growth of
new blood vessels that tumors need to grow

Inhibit Tyrosine/ Serine/ Threonine Kinases Most are orally bioavailable More specifically targeting overexpressed

Considerations Before Testing Oncology Drugs in Healthy Subjects
20
General Mutagenicity/carcinogenicity Reproductive toxicity Class Specific Concerns Skin rashes and other cutaneous reactions Hepatotoxicity Cardiovascular safety Gastrointestinal irritation (nausea/vomiting)
![Page 21: Oncology Drug Development: Phase I Case Studies in Healthy ... · Typical GH Profile Post-Challenge (Induced) & Treatment (Suppression) 16 . Time .

Developing Oncology Products: Phase I Timeline/Cost
21
Estimates range from at least 12-18 months for n=25 oncology patients
Compared to 4-6 months for healthy normal subjects (HNS)
Patients studies can cost into the millions Targeted therapies alter the risk vs. benefit ratio
relative to cytotoxic agents Unless compound causes direct DNA damage,
FDA typically allows dosing in HNS

To Consider - Acid-Reducing Agents on PK of TKI Class Compound
Use of Acid-Reducing
Agents in Cancer Patients ranges from 20-70% across cancer types
Not a class effect Similar to food-effect Test early before
patient studies

In Summary
Development of noncytotoxic oncology therapeutics in the last
decade has increased and is now the norm Opportunity to test on HNS rather than patients Opportunity to use classic Phase I designs Shorter study timelines from start to finish Robust characterization of PK Lower costs per study
Celerion has experience in all aspects of early phase
development for your new oncology drug
Together, we can beat it!
