Pediatric Cancer: ~51,000/year (US & EU, 2018 est.; 175,000 worldwide) the leading cause of death by disease in children >19

• Solid tumors >50%• CNS tumors: ~20%

o 2nd most common pediatric cancer

o 1⁰ cause of morbidity/mortality 1 in 5 patients will succumb to their

treatment or their disease 3 in 5 survivors will experience

significant late effects: • 2⁰ cancers • Mental/developmental delays;

physical disabilities; endocrine dysreg; infertility

A reminder of why we are here

Page 3: The IMI2 ITCC-P4 Paediatric Preclinical Proof-of-Concept ...€¦ · treatment or their disease 3 in 5 survivors will experience . significant. late effects: • 2⁰ cancers •

>20% of all paediatric cancer remains incurable

Paediatric cancer is a complex, multi-stakeholder problem

Lack of and/or limited access to well-characterized paediatric cancer research tools limits the availability & predictability of preclinical testing

A close academia – industry partnership is essential

Brings all needed pieces together in a precompetitive platform

A PPP would is opening doors to paediatric development in a concerted and rigorous fashion

Why the Paediatric CommunityNeeds Public-Private Partnerships

Innovative Medicines Initiative –A Public-Private Partnership

Our Budget – EFPIA budget €9 mio(IMI adds 7.5M) €16.5 mio total(plus a little more … )

Europe’s largest public-private life sciences initiative•Address key societal challenges•Enhance Europe’s competitiveness •Speed development of medicines•Academic-industry partnerships (industry defined)

~150 models fully validated and characterized; data now being uploaded into R2

The ITCC-P4 platform

• 400 PDX models/5yrs; GEMMs; • Standard-of-care and targeted compound testing• POC for immunotherapies in humanized models• POC for organoids

• A highly functioning consortium

• Methodology accepted, four new TARS underway

• ~150 validated; overall a bit behind

• White paper submitted in Q1’20

• Testing did not begin Q4/19; Q1/20

• R2 evolving to become even more powerful

• Well in advance of typical IMI projects

• Team gathered in Brussels last November for mid project review

• IMI scientific officer and project reviewers from across the EU• High marks overall (except for our website )

• “Ability to set the standard for the field … high achieving … might change the paradigm … showcase project for what IMI can do.”

• Impressed with the depth of sustainability discussions• We passed!

IMI interim review of ITCC-P4:“Showcase project for what IMI can do.”
