Diet Pill Dilemma: Why Is FDA Approving Drugs When Europe Isn’t?

2day929/flickr

We’ve all dreamt of popping a pill to help us safely lose weight, or at least eat that chocolate cake without guilt. But alas, even though the Food and Drug Administration has approved two new diet drugs in recent months, that dream probably isn’t any closer to reality.

In the current issue of the BMJ (formerly the British Medical Journal), Sidney Wolfe, founder of the advocacy group Public Citizen, slams the FDA for approving the drugs – lorcaserin (US brand name Belviq) and topiramate (called Qsymia). The FDA’s European counterpart rejected both of them because of heart risks that turned up during preliminary trials.

New Drug Shows Promise for Type 2 Diabetes

TUESDAY Sept. 3, 2013 — An injectable drug that mimics the action of a little-known hormone may hold promise for patients with type 2 diabetes.

The experimental drug, called LY, is a copy of a hormone called fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), and researchers report that it seems to help protect against obesity and may boost the action of insulin.

FGF21

Fibroblast growth factor 21 is a member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) family. FGF21 stimulates glucose uptake in adipocytes but not in other cell types.This effect is additive to the activity of insulin. FGF21 treatment of adipocytes is associated with phosphorylation of FRS2, a protein linking FGF receptors to the Ras/MAP kinase pathway.
FGF21 injection in ob/ob mice results in an increase in Glut1 in adipose tissue. FGF21 also protects animals from diet-induced obesity when overexpressed in transgenic mice and lowers blood glucose and triglyceride levels when administered to diabetic rodents. Treatment of animals with FGF21 results in increased energy expenditure, fat utilization and lipid excretion

http://alfin2600.blogspot.in/2012/10/fgf21-learning-to-live-longer-from.html

Fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF21) is a hormone secreted by the liver during fasting that elicits diverse aspects of the adaptive starvation response. Among its effects, FGF21 induces hepatic fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis, increases insulin sensitivity, blocks somatic growth and causes bone loss. Here we show that transgenic overexpression of FGF21 markedly extends lifespan in mice without reducing food intake or affecting markers of NAD+ metabolism or AMP kinase and mTOR signaling. Transcriptomic analysis suggests that FGF21 acts primarily by blunting the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor-1 signaling pathway in liver. These findings raise the possibility that FGF21 can be used to extend lifespan in other species

 

Type II diabetes is the most prevalent form of diabetes. The disease is caused by insulin resistance and pancreatic β cell failure, which results in decreased glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 21, a member of the FGF family, has been identified as a metabolic regulator and is preferentially expressed in the liver and adipose tissue and exerts its biological activities through the cell surface receptor composed of FGFR1c and β-Klotho on target cells such as liver and adipose tissues (WO0136640, and WO0118172).

The receptor complex is thought to trigger cytoplasmic signaling and to up-regulate the GLUT1 expression through the Ras/MAP kinase pathway.

Its abilities to provide sustained glucose and lipid control, and improve insulin sensitivity and β-cell function, without causing any apparent adverse effects in preclinical settings, have made FGF21 an attractive therapeutic agent for type-2 diabetes and associated metabolic disorders.

There have been a number of efforts towards developing therapies based on FGF21. WO2006065582, WO2006028714, WO2006028595, and WO2005061712 relate to muteins of FGF21, comprising individual amino-acid substitutions. WO2006078463 is directed towards a method of treating cardiovascular disease using FGF21. WO2005072769 relates to methods of treating diabetes using combinations of FGF21 and thiazolidinedione. WO03059270 relates to methods of reducing the mortality of critically ill patients comprising administering FGF21. WO03011213 relates to a method of treating diabetes and obesity comprising administering FGF21.

However, many of these proposed therapies suffer from the problem that FGF21 has an in-vivo half-life of between 1.5 and 2 hrs in humans. Some attempts have been made to overcome this drawback. WO2005091944, WO2006050247 and WO2008121563 disclose FGF21 molecules linked to PEG via lysine or cysteine residues, glycosyl groups and non-natural amino acid residues, respectively. WO2005113606 describes FGF21 molecules recombinantly fused via their C-terminus to albumin and immunoglobulin molecules using polyglycine linkers.

However, developing protein conjugates into useful, cost-effective pharmaceuticals presents a number of significant and oftentimes competing challenges: a balance must be struck between in vivo efficacy, in vivo half-life, stability for in vitro storage, and ease and efficiency of manufacture, including conjugation efficiency and specificity. In general, it is an imperative that the conjugation process does not eliminate or significantly reduce the desired biological action of the protein in question.

The protein-protein interactions required for function may require multiple regions of the protein to act in concert, and perturbing any of these with the nearby presence of a conjugate may interfere with the active site(s), or cause sufficient alterations to the tertiary structure so as to reduce active-site function. Unless the conjugation is through the N′ or C′ terminus, internal mutations to facilitate the linkage may be required. These mutations can have unpredictable effects on protein structure and function. There therefore continues to be a need for alternative FGF21-based therapeutics.

Antibody lipid treatments enter final furlong

Antibody lipid treatments enter final furlong

A tiny pain-free jab every two weeks could be the future of cholesterol-lowering for high-risk patients, according to clinical researchers gathered in Amsterdam for the European Society of Cardiology congress.

Eli Roth at the University of Cincinnati said that two companies are currently neck and neck in the race to bring the first PCSK9 antibody to market. Partners Sanofi and Regeneron may have the edge, with Phase III data on their fully human monoclonal antibody alirocumab slated to be presented before the end of the year, while the chief competition comes from Amgen with its antibody AMG 145, said Dr Roth. Both antibodies can be delivered via subcutaneous auto-injectors, which many patients say they prefer to taking daily pills, he added.

Drug Developers Need to More Fully Identify And Address Root Causes Of R&D Inefficiency, According To Tufts Center For The Study Of Drug Development

Boston, MA–(Marketwire) – While patent expirations on many top selling medicines are spurring the research-based drug industry to embrace new development paradigms to replenish sparse R&D pipelines, drug developers need to more fully identify and address root causes of R&D inefficiency, according to the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development.

The Cost Of Creating A New Drug Now $5 Billion, Pushing Big Pharma To Change

Susan Desmond-Hellmann

There’s one factor that, as much as anything else, determines how many medicines are invented, what diseases they treat, and, to an extent, what price patients must pay for them: the cost of inventing and developing a new drug, a cost driven by the uncomfortable fact than 95% of the experimental medicines that are studied in humans fail to be both effective and safe.

A new analysis conducted at Forbes puts grim numbers on these costs. A company hoping to get a single drug to market can expect to have spent $350 million before the medicine is available for sale. In part because so many drugs fail, large pharmaceutical companies that are working on dozens of drug projects at once spend $5 billion per new medicine.

For people with MS, oral drugs that could address both the immune and neurological components of the disease represent a beacon of hope. “If I could take a pill, I almost wouldn’t mind having this disease,” Sommers says. Mentally gearing up for the weekly shot and the possible side effects takes its toll over the years, he says. Putting aside the syringes “would make it a lot more tolerable,” he says. “I am very excited that there might be some oral drugs down the road.”

Teriflunomide (trade name Aubagio, marketed by Sanofi, also known as A77 1726) is the active metabolite of leflunomide.[1]Teriflunomide was investigated in the Phase III clinical trial TEMSO as a medication for multiple sclerosis (MS). The study was completed in July 2010.[2] 2-year results were positive.[3] However, the subsequent TENERE head-to-head superiority trial reported that “although permanent discontinuations [of therapy] were substantially less common among MS patients who received teriflunomide compared with interferon beta-1a, relapses were more common with teriflunomide.”[4] The drug was approved by the FDA on September 13, 2012.[5]

Mechanisms of action

Teriflunomide is an immunomodulatory drug inhibiting pyrimidine de novo synthesis by blocking the enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase. It is uncertain whether this explains its effect on MS lesions.[6]

Teriflunomide inhibits rapidly dividing cells, including activated T cells, which are thought to drive the disease process in MS. Teriflunomide may decrease the risk of infections compared to chemotherapy-like drugs because of its more-limited effects on the immune system.[7]

It has been found that teriflunomide blocks the transcription factor NF-κB. It also inhibits tyrosine kinase enzymes, but only in high doses not clinically used.[8]

The structure which results from ring opening can interconvert between the E and Z enolic forms (and the corresponding keto-amide), with the Z enol being the most stable and therefore most predominant form.

SYNTHESIS

………………………

http://www.google.com/patents/WO2014177978A3?cl=en

Formula i

Teriflunomide is an immunosuppressant, acting as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It is also evaluated in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune disease and multiple sclerosis. An oral film coated tablet containing teriflunomide as the active ingredient is marked in the United States by Sanofi Aventis US using brand AUBAGIO™. AUBAGIO is indicated for the treatment of patients with relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis.

U.S. Patent No. 5,679,709 appears to claim teriflunomide and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, the same patent also further covers pharmaceutical composition and method of administering top a patients suffering from autoimmune disease.
