IDENTIFYING DRUG REPURPOSING OPPORTUNITIES

Background:

Drug repurposing can accelerate medicine

development. While in pharma, we worked

with our clinical colleagues to identify

additional indications for an existing medicine.

What we did:

Our experts conducted a comprehensive,

clinical transcriptomics analysis across

multiple dermatologic conditions.

Value we added:

Our experts identified additional dermatology

indications for this medicine, discovered

mechanistic connections between skin

diseases and generated new hypotheses

to accelerate medicine development.

INTEGRATED MULTI-OMICS APPROACHES FOR NOVEL

TARGET DISCOVERY

PAREXEL Genomic Medicine can help clients select and validate drug targets.

Background:

While working in pharma, we partnered

with pre-clinical scientists to develop

and implement a multi-omics strategy to

discover novel, specific drug targets in

the IL23 pathway.

What we did:

Our experts supported multi-omics

strategy design and applied cutting-

edge methodologies (e.g., causal

reasoning, advanced network analysis)

to analyze, integrate, and interpret the

multi-omics experimental findings.

Value we added:

In close collaboration with our bench

scientist colleagues, we discovered

novel drug targets that are validated in

follow-up experiments.

ADME GENETICS EXPLAINS EXPOSURE DIFFERENCES

• In a Phase I drug-drug interaction study, a

subset of healthy volunteers had elevated

levels of Drug X when administered with the

client’s medicine.

• Drug X is primarily metabolized by CYP2B6.

Our experts assessed genetic variation in

the CYP2B6 gene to determine if genetic

variants leading to reduced CYP2B6

enzyme activity might account for increased

exposure of Drug X.

• The poor metabolizer CYP2B6 *6/*6

genotype was associated with elevated

exposure of Drug X. The client’s medicine

did not impact Drug X exposure; however,

Drug X increased metabolism of the client’s

medicine (data not shown) so dose

adjustments of the client’s medicine are

recommended.

QUANTITATIVE CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT

• Model based development is critical to take the right steps to get into IND –

pave the way for successful Phase I (the right data without surprises)

A fit-for-purpose modeling tool, always

Create definable value in early development

Cost avoidance, focus only on what is truly needed

Enhancement of pharmacology data with focus on exposure response, occupancy

Clear definition of “target” or “candidate”

Establishing high-confidence stopping rules, eliminating clouded judgment

Successful modeling helps sponsors create optimal Proof-of-Principle and

Proof-of-Concept studies, delivering more valuable data earlier in

development cycle

THE IMPACTS

COSTS?

The average cost to

develop and gain

marketing approval

for a new prescription

medicine, a process

often lasting longer than

a decade, is now

$2.56 billion dollars.*

* Tuft CSDD Outlook 2015

DELAYS?

On average, 2-3

protocol amendments

can delay a trial by

2 months, with each

amendment adding

$500,000 in

additional costs.*

* Tufts May 12, 2014, International

Journal of Environmental Research

And Public Health.

CHURN?

A big factor

contributing to delay

is the 'churn rate’

among investigators.

In some estimates,

over 50% of

investigators have

only completed

one study.
