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.

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.

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
full
concentration
of
the
active
agent
while
minimizing
exposure
to
the
toxic
side
effects.

currently
available
research.
The
purpose
of
this
meeting
is
to
verify
the
scope
of
the
assignment,
answer
questions,
and
review
the
timeline.
Harrison
Hayes
actively
engages
our
clients
in
collaborative,
interactive
dialogue
throughout
the
project.
We
suggest
weekly
meetings
to
review
and
assess
the
direction
and
progress
of
the
project.
Primary
research
for
this
project
will
be
divided
into
two
(2)
modules.
Module
I
will
be
comprised
of
a
panel
of
Key
Innovation
Leaders
(KILs)
and
Module
II
will
consist
of
a
Voice
of
the
Customer
(VOC)
survey.
These
two
primary,
qualitative
Research
Modules
will
serve
as
the
foundation
of
the
project
as
a
whole
and
best
allow
Harrison
Hayes
to
fulfill
the
project’s
objectives.
METHODOLOGY
Module
I
Research
Module
I
will
begin
by
identifying
and
recruiting
a
customized
panel
of
Key
Innovation
Leaders
(KILs)
(Table
1)
and
developing
a
project
specific
study
guide/questionnaire.
The
Key
Innovation
Leader
(KIL)
questionnaire
will
be
developed
through
a
collaborative
effort
with
Company
X
in
order
to
ensure
that
the
focus
of
this
project
is
being
addressed.
The
questionnaire
is
to
be
used
as
a
platform
for
exploration
and
discussion.
All
interviews
will
be
conducted
directly
by
Harrison
Hayes’
Principals
and
Research
Team
who
have
the
autonomy
to
probe
deeper
and
maneuver
through
unique
issues
that
arise
during
discussion
with
the
KILs
–
what
we
refer
to
as
improvisational
interviewing.
Our
Research
Team
is
able
to
select
the
most
appropriate
questions
to
ask
each
KIL
due
to
our
extensive
knowledge
and
involvement
with
the
project’s
goals.
These
interviews
are
conducted
individually,
which
allows
us
to
focus
directly
on
the
expertise
that
each
KIL
possesses.
Improvisational
interviewing
yields
valuable
qualitative
interview
data
unlike
structured
interview
surveys.
Instead
of
merely
moving
from
question
to
question,
our
Research
Team
is

able
to
adapt
based
on
KILs’
response
to
questions,
thus
obtaining
additional
insight.
To
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
expansion
within
the
CED
space.

METHODOLOGY
Module
II
Research
Module
II
will
include
the
identification
and
recruitment
of
Key
Customers
and
developing
a
project
specific
Voice
of
the
Customer
(VOC)
questionnaire.
VOC
studies
measure
current
unmet
needs
and
near-‐term
emerging
opportunities,
but
do
not
address
futuristic
needs.
We
will
look
to
these
Key
Customers
to
provide
valuable
insight
into
the
stated
and
unstated
unmet
needs,
emerging
opportunities,
and
potential
business
gaps
as
they
pertain
to
Company
X’s
Product
X
CED
system.
Like
the
KIL
study,
the
VOC
questionnaire
will
be
developed
through
a
collaborative
effort
with
Company
X
in
order
to
ensure
that
the
focus
of
this
project
is
being
properly
addressed.
The
questionnaire
will
be
used
as
a
platform
for
exploration
and
discussion.
All
interviews
will
be
conducted
directly
by
Harrison
Hayes’
Principals
and
Research
Team
utilizing
improvisational
interviewing
where
the
Team
has
the
autonomy
to
probe
deeper
and
maneuver
through
unique
issues
that
arise
during
discussions
with
the
Key
Customers.
Improvisational
interviewing
again
yields
valuable
qualitative
interview
data,
as
our
Research
Team
is
able
to
adapt
based
on
the
Key
Customers’
response
to
questions,
thus
obtaining
valuable
additional
insight
into
the
Key
Customer’s
perspective.
Our
Research
Team
selects
the
most
appropriate
questions
to
ask
each
Key
Customer
due
to
our
extensive
knowledge
and
involvement
with
the
project’s
goals.
Examples
of
Key
Customers
• Purchasing
and
Procurement
Executives
at
Cancer

Oncology
• Practicing

data
hubs,
proprietary

Internal
One
of

TREND
SPOTTING
&
ANALYSIS
Trending
analysis
focuses
on
identifying
market
viability,
interest,
acceptance
and
penetration,
and
barriers
to
entry
and
expansion,
and
requires
primary
and
secondary
research
to
uncover
emerging
patterns
and
opportunities
for
a
drug-‐device
combination
within
the
CED
market
space.
We
do
not
guess
trends;
we
detect,
analyze,
and
evaluate
them
to
make
evidentially
supported
projections.
Because
Company
X’s
KIL’s
have
significant
insight
into
the
current
state
of
CED
market
space
issues,
they
are
on
the
cutting
edge
of
trends
and
function
as
a
valuable
resource
for
understanding
the
commercial
innovation,
viability,
and
drug-‐device
product-‐
and
technology-‐specific
market
trends.
Examples
of
trends
that
we
will
uncover
include:
• Assessment
of
the
market
reaction
and
acceptance
for
Local
Organ
delivery
using
the
PRODUCT

within
the
CED

• Changing
trends
in
drug,

regulatory
and
reimbursement
environment
• Adoption
drivers
for
innovative
drug-‐device
products
• Lag
time
between
early
adopters,
late
adopters
and
others
• Changing
trends
in
use
of
systemic
vs.
local
applications
Trending
research
is
an
integral
part
of
a
successful
research
initiative,
and
Harrison
Hayes
is
confident
that
our
trend
spotting

on

of
all
primary
and
secondary
research
and
activities
that
have
taken

and
reaction
and
the
risks
of
cannibalization;
market

expansion,
impact,
reaction,
acceptance,
and

barriers
and
inhibitors
to
market
entry,
acceptance,
and
penetration;
market
transition;
and
reimbursement
issues
including
pricing
elasticity
and
reaction.
We
will
do
the
same
for
customer
segments
including
timing
of
adoption,
previously
unidentified
adopters,
and
lag
time
between
adoption
by
different
segments,
competitive
reaction,
and
market
penetration.
