Rationale
HSV-1
Xerclear
Inflammatory response
The rationale for the use of a combination aciclovir and hydrocortisone in the
treatment of recurrent mucocutaneous HSV is to enable control of both the
viral replication and the inflammation
5
- a powerful package

Prevents development of cold sores

Decreases healing time of ulcerative cold sores

The Xerclear™ vehicle improves dermal delivery

Xerclear™ has a unique and compelling label text

Granted patents: covering 1) composition-of-matter and 2) formulation

Xerese™ – Xerclear™ – a differentiating label
First cold sore product with clinical data resulting in a unique and
strong indication text – both in US and EU
Indication text as approved in US
“Xerese, a combination of acyclovir and hydrocortisone, is indicated for the early
treatment of recurrent herpes labialis (cold sores) to reduce the likelihood of
ulcerative cold sores and to shorten the lesion healing time in adults and
adolescents (12 years of age and older)”
Indication text as approved in EU
”Treatment of early signs and symptoms of recurrent herpes labialis (cold sores) to
reduce the progression of cold sore episodes to ulcerative lesions in
immunocompetent adults and adolescents (12 years of age and older)”

Hepatitis C (HCV) - background
Disease & market
• ~180 million worldwide infected with hepatitis C virus
• ~12 million infected in the US, Europe and Japan
• Immense medical need: only 40-50% of patients with genotype 1
respond to current SoC therapy (48 weeks of PEG-IFN/ribavirin)
• Estimated market value of 10.5 billion USD in 2015
The need for new drugs
• Increased SVR rates (cure rates)
• Improved safety and side effect profile
• Shorter duration of treatment
• Higher compliance
– lower drug burden and simplified dosing (once daily, no food
interaction and large “forgiveness” factor)
19
HCV- Future of new DAA agents; New treatments evolving
Programs in collaboration with Tibotec/JNJ
Directly Acting Antiviral (DDA) Agents
•
New oral agents will dramatically
increase SVR and shorten treatment
duration
•
Initially as “add-on” therapy but in
combination eventually displace one or
both of ribavirin and Peg-IFN
•
New anti viral agents with different MOA
will be used in combination with each
other, similar to HIV, to improve efficacy,
shorten treatment duration and minimize
development of resistance
- Combinations of Protease Inhibitors
with other direct antivirals will drive
the future market
•
Medivir, with TMC435 as a front runner of
this new wave, is strongly positioned to
become part of these future DAA
combination treatments

TMC435 C201: Results from Cohort 5 in treatment experienced
patients; an open label study
Cohort 5 comprised prior non-responders and
relapsers to interferon (IFN)-based therapy who
had previously received 5 days of monotherapy
with TMC435 200 mg once daily (QD) in a Phase Ib
trial (Study C101).
4/5 patients completed triple therapy
with TMC435 200 mg QD whilst one patient
discontinued due to increased blood bilirubin
(patient with high bilirubin levels at entry)
No viral breakthroughs (defined as >1 log10 IU/mL
Increase from nadir in HCV RNA) were observed
within 4 weeks
Results at Day 28:
•
Potent antiviral activity
•
All four patients who completed treatment achieved HCV RNA below the limit of quantification (<25 IU/m)
•
Three of four patients had HCV RNA below the limit of detection (<10 IU/mL)
38
C201: Conclusions from the phase 2a study
In both treatment-naïve and treatment-experienced patients infected with HCV
genotype-1, TMC435 once daily in combination with SoC over 4 weeks of
treatment.
• Demonstrated potent antiviral activity
• Was generally safe and well tolerated
• Was not associated with AE-related treatment discontinuations.
• Mild and reversible increases in bilirubin was observed. This was mainly
observed in the highest dose groups (200 mg), whereas the highest dose in
the ongoing phase 2b studies is 150mg. The mechanism of action has been
determined and will be presented at an upcoming conference
• No evidence of any drug-related hepatotoxicity
