Dear	
  Richard,	
  
	
  
Per	
  our	
  conversations,	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  has	
  incorporated	
  valuable	
  feedback	
  from	
  Company	
  X	
  
and	
  is	
  pleased	
  to	
  present	
  this	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  Pump

  Convection	
  Enhanced	
  Delivery	
  (CED)	
  
Research	
  Proposal.	
  	
  	
  
	
  
In	
  this	
  proposal,	
  we	
  present	
  a	
  review	
  of	
  the	
  objectives,	
  scope,	
  and	
  qualitative	
  market	
  
research	
  of	
  this	
  project.	
  	
  We	
  will	
  also	
  go	
  into	
  more	
  detail	
  regarding	
  the	
  qualitative	
  research	
  
methodology	
  that	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  will	
  utilize	
  to	
  obtain	
  unique	
  insights	
  into	
  building	
  the	
  
business	
  case	
  for	
  Local	
  Organ	
  Delivery	
  using	
  the	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  pump	
  for	
  CED.	
  	
  We	
  are	
  highly	
  
confident	
  that	
  our	
  ideation	
  methodology	
  and	
  insightful	
  results	
  will	
  exceed	
  your	
  
expectations.	
  
To	
  complement	
  our	
  work	
  on	
  this	
  project,	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  will	
  rely	
  on	
  a	
  dynamic	
  network	
  of	
  
KILs	
  (Key	
  Innovation	
  Leaders)	
  who	
  have	
  deep	
  domain	
  expertise	
  and	
  are	
  well	
  respected	
  in	
  
their	
  specific	
  disciplines.	
  This	
  assures	
  that	
  our	
  research,	
  ideation	
  and	
  points	
  of	
  view	
  are	
  of	
  
the	
  highest	
  value.	
  	
  
	
  
We	
  would	
  like

   OBJECTIVES	
  	
  
The	
  primary	
  objective	
  of	
  this	
  research	
  project	
  is	
  to	
  assist	
  Company	
  X	
  in	
  establishing	
  a	
  clear,	
  yet	
  
strategic,	
  business	
  case	
  for	
  Local	
  Organ	
  Delivery	
  using	
  the	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  pump	
  for	
  Convection	
  
Enhanced	
  Delivery	
  (CED).	
  	
  This	
  research,	
  while	
  utilizing	
  Harrison	
  Hayes’	
  qualitative	
  research	
  
methodology,	
  will	
  also	
  help	
  provide	
  Company	
  X	
  with	
  insights	
  into	
  identifying	
  extensions	
  of	
  local	
  
and/or	
  systemic	
  CED	
  applications.	
  	
  To	
  obtain	
  this	
  data,	
  Harrison	
  Hayes	
  will	
  focus	
  on	
  the	
  assessment	
  
in	
  the	
  following	
  areas:

BACKGROUND	
  
Because	
  primary	
  brain	
  tumors	
  treated	
  with	
  surgery,	
  radiation	
  therapy,	
  and	
  chemotherapy	
  have	
  a	
  
poor	
  prognosis,	
  this	
  has	
  led	
  investigators	
  to	
  develop	
  new	
  innovative	
  therapies	
  such	
  as	
  targeted	
  
toxins.	
  	
  These	
  large	
  molecules	
  do	
  not	
  cross	
  the	
  blood	
  brain	
  barrier	
  and	
  must	
  be	
  delivered	
  into	
  the	
  
brain	
  by	
  a	
  technique	
  known	
  as	
  Convection-­‐enhanced	
  delivery	
  (CED).	
  1	
  	
  CED	
  is	
  the	
  continuous	
  
injection	
  under	
  positive	
  pressure	
  of	
  a	
  fluid	
  containing	
  a	
  therapeutic	
  agent.	
  	
  This	
  technique	
  was	
  
proposed	
  and	
  introduced	
  by	
  researchers	
  from	
  the	
  US	
  National	
  Institutes	
  of	
  Health	
  (NIH)	
  in	
  the	
  
early	
  1990s	
  to	
  deliver	
  drugs	
  that	
  would	
  otherwise	
  not	
  cross	
  the	
  blood-­‐brain	
  barrier	
  into	
  the	
  
parenchyma	
  and	
  that	
  would	
  be	
  too	
  large	
  to	
  diffuse	
  effectively	
  over	
  the	
  required	
  distances	
  where	
  
they	
  simply	
  deposited	
  into	
  the	
  tissue.	
  Despite	
  the	
  many	
  years	
  that	
  have	
  elapsed,	
  this	
  technique	
  
remains	
  experimental	
  because	
  of	
  both	
  the	
  absence	
  of	
  approved	
  drugs	
  for	
  intraparenchymal	
  
delivery	
  and	
  the	
  difficulty	
  of	
  guaranteed	
  delivery	
  to	
  delineated	
  regions	
  of	
  the	
  brain.	
  	
  During	
  the	
  first	
  
decade	
  after	
  the	
  NIH	
  researchers	
  founded	
  this	
  analytical	
  model	
  of	
  drug	
  distribution,	
  the	
  results	
  of	
  
several	
  computer	
  simulations	
  that	
  had	
  been	
  conducted	
  according	
  to	
  more	
  realistic	
  assumptions	
  
were	
  also	
  published,	
  revealing	
  encouraging	
  results.	
  	
  In	
  the	
  late	
  1990s,	
  one	
  of	
  the	
  authors	
  of	
  the	
  
present	
  paper	
  proposed	
  the	
  development	
  of	
  a	
  computer	
  model	
  that	
  would	
  predict	
  the	
  distribution	
  
specific	
  to	
  a	
  particular	
  patient	
  (brain)	
  based	
  on	
  obtainable	
  data	
  from	
  radiological	
  images.	
  	
  Several	
  
key	
  developments	
  in	
  imaging	
  technology,	
  and	
  in	
  particular,	
  the	
  relationships	
  between	
  image-­‐
obtained	
  quantities	
  and	
  other	
  parameters	
  that	
  enter	
  models	
  of	
  the	
  CED	
  process	
  have	
  been	
  required	
  
to	
  implement	
  this	
  model.	
  	
  Note	
  that	
  delivery	
  devices	
  need	
  further	
  development.2	
  	
  
	
  
Advantages	
  
A	
  potential	
  advantage	
  of	
  the	
  CED	
  system	
  is	
  the	
  ability	
  of	
  the	
  agent	
  to	
  reach	
  cells	
  that	
  have	
  invaded	
  
the	
  peritumoral	
  region	
  and	
  beyond,	
  making	
  it	
  possible	
  to	
  offer	
  hope	
  of	
  significantly	
  reducing	
  the	
  
spread	
  of	
  the	
  disease.	
  	
  For	
  large	
  molecules	
  having	
  a	
  50,000-­‐D	
  or	
  greater	
  mass,	
  the	
  diffusive	
  spread	
  
will	
  often	
  extend	
  less	
  than	
  1	
  mm	
  in	
  a	
  day	
  and	
  only	
  that	
  large	
  if	
  metabolic	
  and	
  other	
  loss	
  
mechanisms	
  do	
  not	
  flush	
  it	
  from	
  the	
  parenchyma.	
  	
  The	
  flow	
  of	
  such	
  a	
  fluid	
  co-­‐injected	
  with	
  a	
  drug	
  
can	
  carry	
  such	
  molecules	
  much	
  farther,	
  however,	
  and	
  in	
  certain	
  idealized	
  scenarios	
  can	
  fill	
  the	
  
intervening	
  region	
  with	
  a	
  full	
  concentration	
  of	
  drug	
  per	
  unit	
  of	
  available	
  volume.	
  	
  
	
  
Volume	
  of	
  Distribution	
  
Diffusive	
  spread	
  results	
  in	
  exponentially	
  decreasing	
  concentrations	
  away	
  from	
  a	
  source.	
  When	
  
administering	
  these	
  agents,	
  there	
  are	
  a	
  number	
  of	
  pharmacokinetic	
  considerations	
  that	
  must	
  be	
  
considered	
  that	
  will	
  directly	
  affect	
  the	
  volume	
  of	
  distribution	
  of	
  the	
  drug	
  being	
  administered	
  and	
  
ultimately	
  the	
  therapeutic	
  effect	
  of	
  the	
  agent.	
  	
  A	
  number	
  of	
  different	
  catheter	
  types	
  have	
  been	
  used	
  
to	
  perform	
  CED	
  with	
  a	
  hollow	
  fiber	
  design	
  offering	
  several	
  advantages	
  over	
  other	
  variations.	
  
Specific	
  parameters	
  have	
  been	
  developed	
  to	
  optimize	
  the	
  placement	
  of	
  the	
  drug	
  delivery	
  catheters	
  
in	
  order	
  to	
  enhance	
  drug	
  distribution	
  in	
  the	
  brain.	
  	
  Considerable	
  effort	
  has	
  been	
  expended	
  to	
  
identify	
  a	
  reliable	
  way	
  to	
  image	
  the	
  distribution	
  of	
  targeted	
  toxins	
  administered	
  by	
  CED	
  using	
  a	
  
combination	
  of	
  magnetic	
  resonance	
  imaging	
  and	
  single	
  photon	
  emission	
  computed	
  tomography.	
  
Unfortunately,	
  many	
  infusions	
  performed	
  in	
  tumor	
  patients	
  are	
  unsuccessful	
  due	
  to	
  
ventricular/subarachnoid	
  leak	
  or	
  pooling	
  of	
  the	
  drug	
  in	
  necrotic	
  tumor	
  tissue.	
  	
  To

  no

  demonstrated

In	
   2005,	
   Peregrine

   developed	
   Cotara,	
   a	
   monoclonal	
   antibody	
   specific	
   for	
  
tumor	
   necrosis

   (TNF)	
   linked	
   to

   TNF	
  
associated	
  with	
  dead

  Once	
  the

  is	
  attached	
  to	
  
the	
  TNF,	
  the	
  radioactive	
  isotope	
  kills

  Peregrine	
  received

   enrolled	
   40	
   Glioblastoma

   who	
   had	
  
experienced	
  their

  The	
  data	
  showed	
  that	
  
GBM	
   patients	
   in	
   the	
   trials	
   continued	
   to	
   experience	
   prolonged	
   survival.	
   	
   The	
   candidate	
   was	
   a	
  
conjugate	
  of	
  interleukin-­‐13	
  (IL-­‐13)	
  and	
  a	
  truncated	
  form	
  of	
  Pseudomonas	
  bacterial	
  exotoxin.	
  	
  The	
  
IL-­‐3	
  portion	
  of	
  the	
  recombinant	
  protein	
  targets	
  the	
  molecule	
  to	
  cancer	
  cells,	
  which	
  the	
  toxin	
  kills.	
  
Updated	
  data	
  for	
  the	
  45	
  GBM	
  patients	
  treated	
  in	
  the	
  Phase	
  I/II	
  intraparenchymal	
  setting	
  showed	
  an	
  
overall	
   median	
   survival	
   time	
   of	
   44.0	
   weeks,	
   with	
   survival	
   increasing	
   to	
   53.6	
   weeks	
   for	
   the	
   26	
  
patients	
  with	
  two	
  or	
  more	
  optimally	
  placed	
  catheters.	
  	
  Also,	
  in	
  a	
  long-­‐term	
  follow-­‐up	
  Phase	
  I	
  study	
  
22	
   GBM	
   patients	
   treated	
   with	
   cintredekin	
   besudotox	
   via	
   convection	
   enhanced	
   delivery	
   had	
   a	
  
median	
  survival	
  of	
  more	
  than	
  one	
  year	
  (57.4	
  weeks).	
  	
  Sixteen	
  of	
  these	
  patients	
  with	
  two	
  or	
  more	
  
optimally	
  placed	
  catheters	
  had	
  a	
  median	
  survival	
  of	
  69.9	
  weeks.	
  	
  In	
  addition,	
  four	
  patients	
  at	
  UCSF	
  
remain	
  alive	
  with	
  a	
  median	
  follow-­‐up	
  of	
  more	
  than	
  three	
  and	
  half	
  years	
  (188	
  weeks),	
  including	
  one	
  
patient	
   with	
   a	
   follow-­‐up	
   of	
   almost	
   five	
   years	
   (244	
   weeks)	
   who	
   is	
   still	
   progression	
   free.	
   	
   An	
  
independent	
  statistical	
  analysis	
  of	
  the	
  Phase	
  I/II	
  data	
  confirmed	
  that	
  catheter	
  placement	
  was	
  a	
  key	
  
prognostic	
   factor	
   related	
   to	
   prolonged	
   survival.	
   	
   Information	
   from	
   these	
   trials	
   was	
   incorporated	
  
into	
  the	
  design	
  of	
  the	
  pivotal	
  Phase	
  III	
  trial.	
  
	
  
Being	
   able	
   to	
   comprehend	
   intracranial	
   conditions	
   is	
   critical	
   to	
   patients	
   who	
   have	
   had	
   traumatic	
  
brain	
  injury	
  (TBI).	
  	
  Parameters	
  that	
  are	
  typically	
  monitored	
  in	
  TBI	
  patients	
  include	
  blood	
  pressure,	
  
intracranial	
   pressure,	
   local	
   brain	
   tissue	
   oxygen	
   tension,	
   and	
   jugular	
   venous	
   oxygen	
   saturation.	
  	
  
Even	
  in	
  advanced	
  institutions,	
  other	
  physiological	
  metrics	
  (brain	
  glucose,	
  lactate,	
  pyruvate,	
  and	
  pH)	
  
that	
  are	
  prone	
  to	
  affect	
  patient	
  outcomes	
  are	
  usually	
  monitored	
  intermittently.	
  	
  A	
  new	
  development	
  
at	
  the	
  University	
  of	
  Cincinnati	
  promises	
  to	
  shed	
  more	
  light	
  on	
  the	
  brain	
  by	
  means	
  of	
  a	
  ‘lab-­‐on-­‐a-­‐
tube’	
  (LOT)	
  device.	
  	
  This	
  device	
  is	
  capable	
  of	
  draining	
  cerebrospinal	
  fluid	
  (CSF)	
  during	
  the	
  process	
  
of	
  monitoring	
  parameters	
  such	
  as	
  pressure,	
  oxygen	
  content,	
  temperature,	
  and	
  glucose	
  within	
  the	
  
intracranial	
   space.	
   	
   This	
   LOT	
   has	
   several	
   benefits	
   over	
   current	
   brain	
   monitoring	
   techniques,	
  
including	
  low	
  invasiveness	
  as	
  it	
  requires	
  only	
  one	
  hole	
  to	
  be	
  drilled	
  into	
  the	
  skull.	
  	
  Next,	
  the	
  tube’s	
  
diameter	
  can	
  be	
  contracted	
  or	
  expanded	
  to	
  adjust	
  to	
  intracranial	
  and	
  intravascular	
  locations	
  and	
  
helps	
   mitigate	
   trauma	
   associated	
   with	
   existing	
   techniques.

PRODUCT	
  X	
  Pump	
  
The	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  Pump	
  was	
  developed	
  by	
  Company	
  X	
  in	
  2008	
  as	
  a	
  new	
  alternative	
  for	
  intra-­‐organ	
  
CED	
  of	
  active	
  agents,	
  specifically	
  in-­‐brain	
  drug	
  delivery	
  for	
  patients	
  with	
  Glioblastoma.	
  	
  The	
  goal	
  of	
  
the	
   PRODUCT	
   X	
   Pump	
   is	
   to	
   demonstrate	
   feasibility	
   and	
   therapeutic	
   interest	
   of	
   a	
   microfluidic	
  
injection	
  module	
  for	
  low	
  flow	
  and	
  low	
  pressure	
  delivery	
  of	
  an	
  active	
  agent	
  in	
  the	
  cerebral	
  tissue	
  
through	
   an	
   intraparenchymal	
   catheter.	
   	
   Initial	
   evaluation	
   of	
   therapeutic	
   performance	
   was	
   on	
   an	
  
experimental	
  pathological	
  animal	
  model	
  (swine	
  with	
  Glioblastoma).	
  	
  Company	
  X	
  has	
  partnered	
  with	
  
CEA-­‐Leti,	
  INSERM,	
  Vetagro	
  Sup,	
  and	
  Tronics	
  for	
  the	
  animal	
  studies.	
  	
  
	
  
The	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  Pump	
  implements	
  a	
  micropump-­‐based	
  fluidic	
  module	
  (MEMS)	
  technology,	
  a	
  chip	
  
made	
  from	
  2	
  bonded	
  silicon	
  wafers,	
  assembled	
  with	
  piezo-­‐electric	
  ceramic	
  for	
  actuation.	
  	
  The	
  pump	
  
itself	
   is	
   slim	
   (3x1	
   cm2),	
   ultra	
   light	
   (0.5g),	
   flexible	
   (up	
   to	
   100µl/min,	
   resolution	
   200	
   nl),	
   has	
   a	
  
viscosity	
   compatibility	
   up	
   to	
   10	
   cps,	
   and	
   a	
   flow	
   rate	
   stable	
   on	
   a	
   wide	
   range	
   of	
   inlet	
   and	
   outlet	
  
pressure	
  (up	
  to	
  +/-­‐	
  250mbar).	
  	
  It	
  is	
  biocompatible	
  -­‐	
  the	
  drug	
  is	
  in	
  contact	
  with	
  silicon	
  oxide	
  (glass)	
  
and	
  the	
  fluidic	
  interface	
  is	
  made	
  of	
  biocompatible	
  polymer	
  and	
  UV-­‐cured	
  glue.	
  
	
  
The	
   intra-­‐organ	
   delivery	
   offered	
   by	
   the	
   PRODUCT	
   X	
   Pump	
   is	
   desirable	
   over	
   systemic	
   delivery	
  
because	
   of	
   lower	
   peripheral	
   drug	
   concentration,	
   leading	
   to	
   decreased	
   systemic	
   toxicity	
   and	
   side	
  
effects.	
  	
  This	
  poses	
  the	
  potential	
  for	
  increased	
  or	
  decreased	
  dosages,	
  as	
  needed.	
  	
  CED	
  has	
  the	
  ability	
  
to	
  overcome	
  intratumoral	
  pressure,	
  eliminating	
  backflow	
  and	
  tissue	
  resistance,	
  resulting	
  in	
  higher	
  
intratumoral	
   and	
   peritumoral	
   active	
   agent	
   concentrations.	
   	
   The	
   continuous	
   positive	
   pressure	
  
infusion	
  allows	
  treatment	
  of	
  larger	
  tumor	
  volume.	
  	
  On	
  site	
  back-­‐pressure	
  measurement	
  is	
  thought	
  
to	
  enable	
  on	
  site	
  localization	
  of	
  catheter	
  tip,	
  possibility	
  to	
  have	
  real-­‐time	
  follow-­‐up	
  of	
  infusion,	
  and	
  
the	
  capability	
  to	
  detect	
  infusion	
  issues	
  and/or	
  overpressure	
  inside	
  the	
  tumor.	
  
	
  
Local	
  CED	
  is	
  an	
  important	
  development	
  in	
  treating	
  primary	
  or	
  metastatic	
  brain	
  tumors	
  because	
  the	
  
blood/brain	
   barrier	
   cannot	
   be	
   overcome	
   by	
   most	
   molecules	
   delivered	
   systemically.	
   	
   There	
   is	
  
currently	
   no	
   successful	
   treatment.	
   	
   Higher	
   local	
   concentrations	
   of	
   active	
   principles	
   can	
   induce	
  
stronger	
   therapeutic	
   effects	
   (i.e.	
   tumor	
   stabilization	
   or	
   regression);	
   local	
   delivery	
   means	
   lower	
  
peripheral	
  concentration/less	
  detrimental	
  side	
  effects	
  as	
  compared	
  to	
  systemic	
  delivery.	
  
	
  
Glioblastoma	
  is	
  the	
  current	
  target	
  for	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  Pump	
  utilization.	
  	
  This	
  type	
  of	
  tumor	
  has	
  a	
  nearly	
  
100%	
   fatal	
   prognosis.	
   	
   The	
   average	
   life	
   expectancy	
   after	
   diagnosis	
   is	
   less	
   than	
   1	
   year	
   due	
   to	
   its	
  
infiltrative	
   nature	
   and	
   high	
   proliferation/growth/recurrence	
   rates.	
   There	
   is	
   no	
   known	
   curative	
  
treatment	
   and	
   it	
   has	
   not	
   been	
   properly	
   addressed	
   by	
   traditional	
   treatments	
   (i.e.	
   surgery,	
  
radiotherapy,	
  chemotherapy).	
  	
  
	
  
While	
   Glioblastoma	
   is	
   the	
   main	
   focus	
   for	
   the	
   PRODUCT	
   X	
   Pump,	
   there	
   are	
   many	
   extensions	
   of	
  
local/systemic	
   CED	
   in	
   other	
   therapeutic	
   areas	
   that	
   are	
   worth	
   exploring	
   (See	
   Appendix).	
   One	
  
important	
  emerging	
  targeted	
  therapy	
  is	
  Roche’s	
  monoclonal	
  antibody,	
  Avastin,	
  which	
  was	
  recently	
  
withdrawn	
  by	
  the	
  FDA	
  due	
  to	
  toxic	
  side	
  effects.	
  	
  The	
  PRODUCT	
  X	
  Pump	
  offers	
  hope	
  to	
  therapies	
  
such	
   as	
   Avastin,	
   as	
   it	
   offers	
   a	
   new	
   delivery	
   method	
   that	
   may	
   allow	
   patients	
   exposure	
   to	
   the

  through	
  a	
  collaborative

  order	
  to	
  ensure	
  that	
  the

  is	
  to	
  be	
  used	
  as	
  a	
  platform	
  for	
  exploration

  will	
  be	
  conducted

  complement	
  our	
  Primary	
  Qualitative	
  KIL	
  research	
  we	
  will	
  concurrently	
  
perform	
  secondary	
  research	
  from	
  syndicated,	
  internal,	
  and	
  public	
  sources.	
  
We	
  believe	
  secondary	
  research	
  will	
  provide	
  us	
  with	
  useful	
  data	
  regarding	
  
the	
  identification	
  and	
  assessment	
  of	
  barriers	
  to	
  market	
  entry	
  and	
  expansion	
  
including	
  competitive	
  reaction,	
  risks	
  of	
  cannibalization,	
  and	
  reimbursement	
  
issues.	
  	
  We	
  will	
  also	
  look	
  to	
  uncover	
  social	
  (e.g.,	
  regulatory	
  policy	
  changes)	
  
and	
  economic	
  trends.	
  	
  Our	
  Secondary	
  Research	
  Methodology	
  and	
  its	
  role	
  in	
  
the	
  project’s	
  outcome	
  are	
  discussed	
  in	
  further	
  detail	
  below.	
  
Harrison	
  Hayes	
  believes	
  that	
  through	
  the	
  effective	
  marrying	
  of	
  primary	
  KIL	
  
insight	
  and	
  secondary	
  research	
  –	
  along	
  with	
  our	
  partnership	
  with	
  the	
  
Company	
  X	
  project	
  team	
  –	
  we	
  can	
  obtain	
  uncommon	
  insight	
  into	
  the	
  
potential	
  for	
  tactical	
  market	
  entry	
  and

  • 4.                                     Company  X:  Product  X  Pump  for  CED                                  4   Market  Analysis  Proposal  -­‐  Confidential     BACKGROUND   Because  primary  brain  tumors  treated  with  surgery,  radiation  therapy,  and  chemotherapy  have  a   poor  prognosis,  this  has  led  investigators  to  develop  new  innovative  therapies  such  as  targeted   toxins.    These  large  molecules  do  not  cross  the  blood  brain  barrier  and  must  be  delivered  into  the   brain  by  a  technique  known  as  Convection-­‐enhanced  delivery  (CED).  1    CED  is  the  continuous   injection  under  positive  pressure  of  a  fluid  containing  a  therapeutic  agent.    This  technique  was   proposed  and  introduced  by  researchers  from  the  US  National  Institutes  of  Health  (NIH)  in  the   early  1990s  to  deliver  drugs  that  would  otherwise  not  cross  the  blood-­‐brain  barrier  into  the   parenchyma  and  that  would  be  too  large  to  diffuse  effectively  over  the  required  distances  where   they  simply  deposited  into  the  tissue.  Despite  the  many  years  that  have  elapsed,  this  technique   remains  experimental  because  of  both  the  absence  of  approved  drugs  for  intraparenchymal   delivery  and  the  difficulty  of  guaranteed  delivery  to  delineated  regions  of  the  brain.    During  the  first   decade  after  the  NIH  researchers  founded  this  analytical  model  of  drug  distribution,  the  results  of   several  computer  simulations  that  had  been  conducted  according  to  more  realistic  assumptions   were  also  published,  revealing  encouraging  results.    In  the  late  1990s,  one  of  the  authors  of  the   present  paper  proposed  the  development  of  a  computer  model  that  would  predict  the  distribution   specific  to  a  particular  patient  (brain)  based  on  obtainable  data  from  radiological  images.    Several   key  developments  in  imaging  technology,  and  in  particular,  the  relationships  between  image-­‐ obtained  quantities  and  other  parameters  that  enter  models  of  the  CED  process  have  been  required   to  implement  this  model.    Note  that  delivery  devices  need  further  development.2       Advantages   A  potential  advantage  of  the  CED  system  is  the  ability  of  the  agent  to  reach  cells  that  have  invaded   the  peritumoral  region  and  beyond,  making  it  possible  to  offer  hope  of  significantly  reducing  the   spread  of  the  disease.    For  large  molecules  having  a  50,000-­‐D  or  greater  mass,  the  diffusive  spread   will  often  extend  less  than  1  mm  in  a  day  and  only  that  large  if  metabolic  and  other  loss   mechanisms  do  not  flush  it  from  the  parenchyma.    The  flow  of  such  a  fluid  co-­‐injected  with  a  drug   can  carry  such  molecules  much  farther,  however,  and  in  certain  idealized  scenarios  can  fill  the   intervening  region  with  a  full  concentration  of  drug  per  unit  of  available  volume.       Volume  of  Distribution   Diffusive  spread  results  in  exponentially  decreasing  concentrations  away  from  a  source.  When   administering  these  agents,  there  are  a  number  of  pharmacokinetic  considerations  that  must  be   considered  that  will  directly  affect  the  volume  of  distribution  of  the  drug  being  administered  and   ultimately  the  therapeutic  effect  of  the  agent.    A  number  of  different  catheter  types  have  been  used   to  perform  CED  with  a  hollow  fiber  design  offering  several  advantages  over  other  variations.   Specific  parameters  have  been  developed  to  optimize  the  placement  of  the  drug  delivery  catheters   in  order  to  enhance  drug  distribution  in  the  brain.    Considerable  effort  has  been  expended  to   identify  a  reliable  way  to  image  the  distribution  of  targeted  toxins  administered  by  CED  using  a   combination  of  magnetic  resonance  imaging  and  single  photon  emission  computed  tomography.   Unfortunately,  many  infusions  performed  in  tumor  patients  are  unsuccessful  due  to   ventricular/subarachnoid  leak  or  pooling  of  the  drug  in  necrotic  tumor  tissue.    To  date,  no  targeted   toxin  clinical  trial  has  demonstrated  statistically  significant  clinical  results  leading  to  the  universal   acceptance  of  this  treatment.    Other  agents  such  as  standard  chemotherapy

  • 5.                                     Company  X:  Product  X  Pump  for  CED                                  5   Market  Analysis  Proposal  -­‐  Confidential     preparations  have  been  delivered  by  CED.    Non-­‐neoplastic  neurological  diseases  are  being   considered  for  treatment  by  CED  and  treating  different  locations  of  the  brain  other  than  the   cerebral  hemispheres  are  under  investigation.       Relevant  Research  Studies   In   2005,   Peregrine   Pharmaceuticals   Inc.   developed   Cotara,   a   monoclonal   antibody   specific   for   tumor   necrosis   factor   (TNF)   linked   to   radioactive   iodine   131.     It   was   designed   to   target   TNF   associated  with  dead  or  dying  tissue  usually  found  inside  tumors.    Once  the  conjugate  is  attached  to   the  TNF,  the  radioactive  isotope  kills  neighboring  cells.    Peregrine  received  regulatory  approval  in   India  in  2006  for  a  new  clinical  trial  of  the  candidate  in  Glioblastoma  multiforme,  a  deadly  form  of   brain  cancer.    The  goal  of  the  trial  was  to  provide  clinical  data  that  could  be  combined  with  the   dosimetry   and   safety   data   being   gathered   from   the   ongoing   US   study   to   speed   up   clinical   and   commercial   development   of   the   agent.     The   study   enrolled   40   Glioblastoma   patients   who   had   experienced  their  first  relapse.    They  were  given  a  single  infusion  of  Cotara  directly  into  the  brain   tumor,   using   a   CED   system.   Primary   endpoints   were   to   confirm   safety   and   determine   median   survival  time  and  median  time  to  progression.       In   2006,   NeoPharm   Inc.   conducted   a   Phase   III   clinical   trial   of   its   cintredekin   besudotox   (IL13-­‐ PE38QQR)  candidate  for  treating  recurrent  Glioblastoma  multiforme  (GBM).    Sandeep  Kunwar  of   the  University  of  California  at  San  Francisco  (UCSF)  presented  updated  results  of  Phase  I/II  studies   and   results   from   a   Phase   I/II   subset   analysis   at   the   74th   Annual   Meeting   of   the   American   Association  of  Neurological  Surgeons  in  San  Francisco  on  April  24,  2006.    The  data  showed  that   GBM   patients   in   the   trials   continued   to   experience   prolonged   survival.     The   candidate   was   a   conjugate  of  interleukin-­‐13  (IL-­‐13)  and  a  truncated  form  of  Pseudomonas  bacterial  exotoxin.    The   IL-­‐3  portion  of  the  recombinant  protein  targets  the  molecule  to  cancer  cells,  which  the  toxin  kills.   Updated  data  for  the  45  GBM  patients  treated  in  the  Phase  I/II  intraparenchymal  setting  showed  an   overall   median   survival   time   of   44.0   weeks,   with   survival   increasing   to   53.6   weeks   for   the   26   patients  with  two  or  more  optimally  placed  catheters.    Also,  in  a  long-­‐term  follow-­‐up  Phase  I  study   22   GBM   patients   treated   with   cintredekin   besudotox   via   convection   enhanced   delivery   had   a   median  survival  of  more  than  one  year  (57.4  weeks).    Sixteen  of  these  patients  with  two  or  more   optimally  placed  catheters  had  a  median  survival  of  69.9  weeks.    In  addition,  four  patients  at  UCSF   remain  alive  with  a  median  follow-­‐up  of  more  than  three  and  half  years  (188  weeks),  including  one   patient   with   a   follow-­‐up   of   almost   five   years   (244   weeks)   who   is   still   progression   free.     An   independent  statistical  analysis  of  the  Phase  I/II  data  confirmed  that  catheter  placement  was  a  key   prognostic   factor   related   to   prolonged   survival.     Information   from   these   trials   was   incorporated   into  the  design  of  the  pivotal  Phase  III  trial.     Being   able   to   comprehend   intracranial   conditions   is   critical   to   patients   who   have   had   traumatic   brain  injury  (TBI).    Parameters  that  are  typically  monitored  in  TBI  patients  include  blood  pressure,   intracranial   pressure,   local   brain   tissue   oxygen   tension,   and   jugular   venous   oxygen   saturation.     Even  in  advanced  institutions,  other  physiological  metrics  (brain  glucose,  lactate,  pyruvate,  and  pH)   that  are  prone  to  affect  patient  outcomes  are  usually  monitored  intermittently.    A  new  development   at  the  University  of  Cincinnati  promises  to  shed  more  light  on  the  brain  by  means  of  a  ‘lab-­‐on-­‐a-­‐ tube’  (LOT)  device.    This  device  is  capable  of  draining  cerebrospinal  fluid  (CSF)  during  the  process   of  monitoring  parameters  such  as  pressure,  oxygen  content,  temperature,  and  glucose  within  the   intracranial   space.     This   LOT   has   several   benefits   over   current   brain   monitoring   techniques,   including  low  invasiveness  as  it  requires  only  one  hole  to  be  drilled  into  the  skull.    Next,  the  tube’s   diameter  can  be  contracted  or  expanded  to  adjust  to  intracranial  and  intravascular  locations  and   helps   mitigate   trauma   associated   with   existing   techniques.     The   spirally-­‐rolled   microchannels
