Big pharma / big biotech pipeline strategy for protein therapeutics Is a diverse portfolio achievable?Or, are companies locked into the antibody paradigm?

9.00 Chair’s introduction

9.05 Antibodies and Fc fusion proteins vs the alternatives: Biological considerations

• Antibodies and Fc fusion proteins are dominant in sales and approaches in 2013 and should remain so for next decade

• Alternative scaffolds, peptides, modifi ed toxin proteins and other approaches have signifi cant value in niche applications for which antibodies are not the best answer

• How do we decide between an antibody approach vs an alternative protein or peptide approach?

Dr William Strohl, Vice President, Biologics Research, Janssen Research & Development LLC, Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson

10.00 Questions & discussion

10.05 It’s not just the biology, you have to be able to develop it too – how to select the optimal therapeutic antibody candidate

• The crucial step in successful development of biologics is the selection of the right molecules early on. This selection is a multifunctional scientifi c exercise requiring a focused and integrated team operating across the R / D interface.

• Thus, thorough characterization of a variety of properties of therapeutic antibody candidates is a prerequisite for selecting the best antibody for further development into a viable drug.

Great topics and VERY well organized.Nick Marsh, Adnexus, BMS

Stefan Wildt, Vice President, Head of Integrated Biologics Profi ling, Novartis Pharma AG / Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research

10.30 Panel discussionHow do companies evaluate novel engineered antibodies and experimental protein therapeutic candidates? How should small biotech respond?

• What’s their biological relevance?• What differentiation and value do they bring? o Where is the evidence they make superior drugs? o Are they solving a problem or making incremental improvement? o Is there still a place for the ultimate scaffold? o Does the value outweigh the additional development challenges?• What’s the most common reason for failure? o How to ensure a better therapeutic margin for targeted therapies• How do you drive for effi cacious biologics when using alternative monoclonals /

alternative scaffolds / multispecifi cs• Understanding why companies are pursuing novel scaffolds instead of mAbs

despite the risks

Panellists:Dr William Strohl, Vice President, Biologics Research, Janssen Research & Development LLC, Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & JohnsonDr Arne Skerra, Professor, TUM & Founder, Pieris AGDaniel E. Schaufelberger, PhD, Scientifi c Director, CMC Leader, Pharmaceutical Development & Manufacturing Sciences, Janssen Research & Development LLC; Member of the J&J Pediatric Center of ExcellenceLeopold Bertea, PhD, Vice President Governance & Bio-Business, Sanofi Global BiotherapeuticsDr Arthur Tzianabos, Vice President & Head, Research & Early Development, Shire HGT

10.55 Morning coffee in the exhibition area

11.35 Protein optimization: balancing pharmaceutical and pharmacological properties

Dr Uma Kuchibhotla, Chief Scientifi c Offi cer, Biotherapeutics Lead Optimization, Eli Lilly

12.00 Questions & discussion

12.05 Managing costs during drug development - a CMC perspective• Development of a new molecular entity is still characterized by relevant attrition

along the different development phases the majority of which is linked to lack of expected effi cacy and / or required safety

• As supply of appropriate investigative drug product is prerequisite to clinical studies, signifi cant investment in technical development and clinical manufacturing is often required prior to availability of relevant clinical data

• With increasing cost pressure in R&D the ability to manage technical R&D costs in the face of uncertainties of drug development are of increasing interest, particularly for biologics and monoclonal antibodies

• These possibilities include postponement of technical activities, selecting optimal scale for clinical manufacturing, establishment of standard platform, or technical solutions such as automation or use of single use equipment

• The talk will discuss benefi ts and risks of these measures based on various examples

Ursula Redeker, PhD, Head Technical Development Biologics Europe, F.Hoffmann La Roche

12.30 Questions & discussion

2.15 Chair’s introduction

2.20 What would a genuinely new target look like?Dr Neil Weir, Senior Vice President Research, UCB

2.45 Presentations and panel discussion• How to mine the genome to fi nd different classes of antibody and natural

proteins that are still out of reach• If you stick with antibodies how does that limit the novel target types you can

go after?• How do you measure target engagement and biological effect in inaccessible

organs like the brain?• Are intracellular targets just too diffi cult?• Novel ways to think about target discovery• Serendipity / empirical methods have created all the value so far – are we now

being overly rational in our approach to innovation?

Panellists:Robert Kastelein, PhD, Associate Vice President, Biologics Strategy, Merck Research Labs Dr Arthur Tzianabos, Vice President & Head, Research & Early Development, Shire HGTCarsten Olbrich, PhD, Senior Scientist Formulation Development Liquids, Bayer Pharma AG
