EVERSANA and Xspray Pharma Partners for US Launch of Dasynoc

EVERSANA | February 24, 2023

On February 23, 2023, Xspray Pharma AB announced that it has signed an agreement with EVERSANA to aid the launch and commercialization of its innovative cancer therapy Dasynoc for treating chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and acute lymphatic leukemia (ALL) in the United States. Xspray Pharma will maintain financial and strategic control while granting EVERSANA exclusive commercialization access to support the second-half 2023 launch of Dasynoc. Dasynoc, if FDA approved, will be a new treatment option for CML and ALL patients that will enter the $3.5 billion commercial market for Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in the United States. Under the agreement, EVERSANA will provide Xspray with a dedicated commercialization team with expertise in the successful commercialization of cancer drugs, including TKI products, and offer support in areas such as agency services, market access, clinical and commercial field teams, patient services, medical science liaisons, and compliance. In addition, this agreement gives Xspray access to EVERSANA's experienced commercial leaders and enables a quick launch while optimizing the launch budget. Dasynoc is expected to bring significant benefits to CML patients as it is bioequivalent to Sprycel® at a 30% lower dose with significantly better variability, enabling better precision and predictability of dosing. Dasynoc is granted ODD by FDA for the treatment of CML and ALL. The product offers an important improvement for CML patients, as retrospective registry data presented at ASH 2022 show that patients on concomitant tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment (e.g., omeprazole) of 79% have low 5-year overall survival rates compared to 94% for patients on TKI only. Dasynoc uptake is unaffected by PPIs, hence offering an essential benefit to CML patients. Xspray plans to launch the product in the second half of 2023, subject to FDA approval and ongoing litigation processes pertaining to patents for crystalline dasatinib forms that Xspray believes are not present in its product. About EVERSANA EVERSANA is a prominent global services provider to the life sciences industry, offering integrated solutions that focus on the patient experience and cover all stages of the product life cycle. The company aims to create long-term, sustainable value for patients, prescribers, channel partners, and payers. It works with over 670 organizations, including established pharmaceutical companies and start-ups, to advance life sciences solutions and contribute to creating a healthier world.

Northstar and Inhibrx Join Hands to Develop Radiopharmaceutical Candidates

Northstar and Inhibrx | January 09, 2023

NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes, LLC, announced a collaboration with Inhibrx, Inc., to develop and produce new radiopharmaceuticals for cancer treatment. Inhibrx will develop a new generation of targeted alpha treatments utilizing its improved single-domain antibodies (sdAbs). With a long history of sdAb innovation, it has created a library of sdAbs targeting tumor-associated antigens. Its high binding affinity and specificity for tumor cells or antigen-expressing cells within the tumor microenvironment make sdAbs an ideal biological targeting agent for radioisotope delivery. In addition, alpha-emitting radioisotopes have a small range of activity and high energy transfer, allowing for the targeted destruction of cancer cells with minimum damage to adjacent healthy tissue. NorthStar is expanding its position as an industry leader in the rapidly-growing field of therapeutic radioisotopes, and it is now prepared to become the first commercial-scale manufacturer of non-carrier added (n.c.a.) actinium-225 (Ac-225) and copper-67 (Cu-67). Under the terms of this agreement, NorthStar will provide the supply of Ac-225 and access to its comprehensive radiopharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) services to assist the development of a predetermined number of Inhibrx's novel biologic medicines. NorthStar will also prepare Inhibrx patient dosages for clinical studies and, upon approval, may manufacture and supply radionuclides for its commercial use. About NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes, LLC NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes is a commercial-stage nuclear medicine company with a mission to provide patients with global access to game-changing radiopharmaceuticals. The company uses ecologically preferable technologies to create, manufacture, and distribute diagnostic imaging and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. It is the only commercial U.S. producer of molybdenum-99, an essential diagnostic imaging radioisotope (Mo-99). The FDA-approved RadioGenix® System (technetium Tc 99m generator) uses US-manufactured, non-uranium-based Mo-99 as the source material to generate technetium-99m (Tc-99m), which is used to assess heart disease and cancer.
