4Clinical Background
- Congenital hemophilia A with inhibitors to hFVIII
- The development of neutralizing antibodies
(inhibitors) to human FVIII following replacement
therapy is a major complication in hemophilia A - Patients no longer respond to hFVIII therapy
- Inhibitors develop in about 28 of severe
hemophilia A patients - Additionally, 3 to 13 of mild and moderate
hemophilia A patients also develop inhibitors - Acquired factor VIII inhibitor (Acquired
hemophilia) - Rare affects 1 to 2 individuals in 1,000,000
and occurs predominantly in older individuals - A small proportion of younger patients may
develop the disease, predominantly postpartum
women - Clinical manifestation is more severe and
anatomically diverse than in congenital
hemophilia A - Mortality rate 20 bleeding often spontaneous
or in response to minimal trauma
5OBI-1s mode of action is maintenance of
intrinsic pathway activity due to its anticipated
low cross reactivity with circulating inhibitors

6OBI-1 is a recombinant protein formulated without
animal-derived products
- 94 homologous with human fVIII
- B-domain deleted
- Amino acid linker combining A2 and A3
- Baby hamster kidney cells
- Two viral reduction/inactivation steps
- Lyophilized in vials containing 500 IU OBI-1
- Coagulant function equivalent to human fVIII

7OBI-1 Clinical Experience Phase II - Study
OBI-1-201
- Study design
- A prospective, open-label, non comparative study
to assess the hemostatic activity of OBI-1 in
congenital hemophilia A patients with inhibitors
and non-life or -limb threatening bleeding
episodes - Dosing
- Loading dose given in patients with measurable
anti OBI-1 antibody titers only. - The initial treatment dose was 50 U/kg and was
given 5 minutes after the loading dose - Subsequent doses of OBI-1, if necessary, were as
follows 50, 50, 100, 100, 100, 150, 150 U/kg
given 6 hours apart - Efficacy
- 9 subjects had 25 bleeding episodes treated with
OBI-1 (5 patients with gt1 bleed) - All bleeds (25/25) were successfully controlled
with 8 or less injections of OBI-1 (median total
dose 224 U/kg) - 20 of the 25 bleeds (80) were controlled with 1
treatment dose plus the loading dose when
applicable (median total dose of 201 U/kg) - In subjects with repeated exposure to OBI-1 and
who had an increase in titer there was no
increase in the number of injections required to
control a bleeding episode
8OBI-1 Clinical Experience Phase II - Study
OBI-1-201
- Safety and Immunogenicity
- A total of 41 OBI-1 injections were administered
in 9 subjects - Individual dose ranging from 50 U/kg to 576 U/kg
- One subject had a treatment-emergent adverse
event considered possibly related to the study
drug - Infusion reaction rated as mild and controlled
with diphenhydramine - When retreated for a subsequent bleed the subject
did not reported any AE - Eight out of nine (89) subjects developed
anti-pFVIII antibodies following exposure to
OBI-1 and in subjects receiving repeated OBI-1
treatment higher anti-pFVIII titers did not
affect efficacy nor safety - No increase in incidence of AEs with increased
doses - No increase in number of injections of OBI-1
required with increased titer
9OBI-1 phase III clinical plan first prospective
clinical trials in acquired hemophilia and severe
bleeds in congenital hemophilia A with inhibitors
Study 302 in patients with congenital hemophilia
A and inhibitors to hFVIII Treatment of life-
or limb threatening bleeding and other serious
hemorrhage
Study 301 in patients with acquired factor VIII
inhibitor (acquired hemophilia) Treatment of all
acute serious bleeding episodes
Both will be of similar design Open label,
non-comparative prospective studies, about 40
patients in each study
Based on input received from regulatory agencies
to date Ipsen is on schedule for Phase 3
activities by Q1 2010
