Press Release    LOGO

Dupixent approved in the EU as the first-ever targeted therapy for patients with COPD

 

  *

First-in-world approval of Dupixent for adults with uncontrolled COPD with raised blood eosinophils based on two landmark phase 3 studies showing Dupixent significantly reduced exacerbations, improved lung function and also improved health-related quality of life

  *

Dupixent is the first new treatment approach for COPD in more than a decade and a new option for approximately 220,000 adults in the EU

  *

Approval represents the sixth approved indication for Dupixent in the EU and seventh approved indication globally

Paris and Tarrytown, NY, July 3, 2024. The European Medicines Agency (EMA) has approved Dupixent (dupilumab) as an add-on maintenance treatment for adults with uncontrolled chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) characterized by raised blood eosinophils. Specifically, the approval covers patients already on a combination of an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) and a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), or on a combination of a LABA and a LAMA if ICS is not appropriate. The EMA is the first regulatory authority in the world to approve Dupixent for COPD patients. Additional submissions are under review with other regulatory authorities around the world, including in the US, China, and Japan.

Tonya Winders

President & CEO of Global Allergy & Airways Patient Platform

“As a progressive and devastating disease, COPD leads to suffering from breathlessness that limits a person’s ability to conduct everyday activities such as walking up the stairs or to the mailbox. Many patients feel marginalized and isolated because of the physical and mental toll of the disease. After more than a decade of limited treatment advancements for those living with uncontrolled COPD, we are now in a new era of disease management for patients and caregivers, and we welcome the addition of innovative, new treatments such as Dupixent to help manage this progressive and irreversible disease.”

Paul Hudson

Chief Executive Officer at Sanofi

“Patients with uncontrolled COPD have been waiting for a new treatment approach for many years, so we are thrilled to bring to market the first biologic to target an underlying cause of this devastating disease to reduce COPD exacerbations and improve lung function. With today’s approval of Dupixent, we can change the treatment landscape for the more than 200,000 patients throughout the EU living with uncontrolled COPD with raised blood eosinophils. We look forward to working with other regulators around the world as quickly as possible to bring this novel treatment approach to patients in more countries.”

The approval is based on results from the landmark phase 3 BOREAS and NOTUS studies, which were separately published in The New England Journal of Medicine and evaluated the efficacy and safety of Dupixent in adults with uncontrolled COPD with evidence of type 2 inflammation (i.e., blood eosinophils 300 cells per µL). All patients were on background maximal standard-of-care inhaled therapy (with nearly all on triple therapy). In terms of efficacy, Dupixent patients in BOREAS (n=468) and NOTUS (n=470) experienced the following, respectively, compared to placebo (BOREAS n=471; NOTUS n=465):

 

   

30% and 34% reduction in the annualized rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations over 52 weeks, the primary endpoint.

   

Improvements in lung function (pre-bronchodilator FEV1) from baseline by 160 mL and 139 mL at 12 weeks compared to 77 mL and 57 mL. These improvements were observed as early as week 2 and 4 and were sustained at 52 weeks in both studies.

   

Improvements in health-related quality of life (statistically significant in BOREAS and nominally significant in NOTUS), as assessed by the St. George’s Respiratory Questionnaire.

Reductions in exacerbations and improvements in lung function for Dupixent versus placebo were also observed in patients with higher baseline fractional exhaled nitric oxide (20ppb) – an airway biomarker of inflammation – and across all pre-defined subgroups including smoking status, baseline lung function, and history of exacerbations.

Safety results in both studies were generally consistent with the known safety profile of Dupixent in its approved indications. The most common side effects across indications include injection site reactions, conjunctivitis, conjunctivitis allergic, arthralgia, oral herpes, and eosinophilia. Adverse events more commonly observed with Dupixent (5%) compared to placebo in either COPD study were back pain, COVID-19, diarrhea, headache and nasopharyngitis. Additional adverse reactions of injection site bruising, injection site induration, injection site rash and injection site dermatitis were reported in the COPD studies.

George D. Yancopoulos, M.D., Ph.D.

Board Co-Chair, President and Chief Scientific Officer at Regeneron

“The approval of Dupixent for COPD is a long-awaited turning point for those who struggle to breathe even through the simplest of tasks, while also facing the risk of hospitalization, irreversible health decline and feelings of hopelessness. With this approval, we are proud that Dupixent has the potential to redefine the treatment landscape in yet another disease, as a first-in-class therapy demonstrating unprecedented improvements on exacerbations and lung function, as well as improving health-related quality of life across two large phase 3 trials.”

About COPD

COPD is a respiratory disease that damages the lungs and causes progressive lung function decline and is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. Symptoms include persistent cough, excessive mucus production and shortness of breath that may impair the ability to perform routine daily activities, which may lead to sleep disturbances, anxiety, and depression. COPD is also associated with a significant health and economic burden due to recurrent acute exacerbations that require systemic corticosteroid treatment and/or lead to hospitalization. Smoking and exposure to noxious particles are key risk factors for COPD, but even individuals who quit smoking can still develop or continue having the disease. There have been no new treatment approaches approved for more than a decade.

About the Dupixent COPD phase 3 study program

BOREAS and NOTUS were replicate, randomized, phase 3, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies that evaluated the efficacy and safety of Dupixent in adults who were current or former smokers with moderate-to-severe COPD with evidence of type 2 inflammation, as measured by blood eosinophils 300 cells per µL. The studies enrolled 1,874 patients who were aged 40 to 80 years in BOREAS and 40 to 85 years in NOTUS.

During the 52-week treatment period, patients in BOREAS and NOTUS received Dupixent or placebo every two weeks added to a maximal standard-of-care inhaled triple therapy of ICS, LABA and LAMA. Double maintenance therapy, which included LABA and LAMA, was allowed if ICS was not appropriate.

The primary endpoint for BOREAS and NOTUS evaluated the annualized rate of moderate or severe COPD exacerbations. Moderate exacerbations were defined as those requiring systemic steroids and/or antibiotics. Severe exacerbations were defined as those requiring hospitalization; requiring more than a day of observation in an emergency department or urgent care facility; or resulting in death. Key secondary endpoints included change from baseline in lung function (assessed by pre-bronchodilator forced expiratory volume [FEV1]) at 12 and 52 weeks, change from baseline at 52 weeks in SGRQ total score compared to placebo, and safety.

About Sanofi and Regeneron’s COPD clinical research program

Sanofi and Regeneron are motivated to transform the treatment paradigm of COPD by examining the role different types of inflammation play in the disease progression through the investigation of two potentially first-in-class biologics, Dupixent and itepekimab.

Dupixent inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL4) and interleukin-13 (IL13) pathways and the program focuses on a specific population of people with evidence of type 2 inflammation. Itepekimab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to and inhibits interleukin-33 (IL-33), an initiator and amplifier of broad inflammation in COPD.

Itepekimab is currently under clinical investigation in two phase 3 studies, and its safety and efficacy have not been evaluated by any regulatory authority.

About Dupixent

Dupixent is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL4) and interleukin-13 (IL13) pathways and is not an immunosuppressant. The Dupixent development program has shown significant clinical benefit and a decrease in type 2 inflammation in phase 3 studies, establishing that IL4 and IL13 are key and central drivers of the type 2 inflammation that plays a major role in multiple related and often co-morbid diseases.

Dupixent has received regulatory approvals in more than 60 countries in one or more indications including certain patients with atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis, eosinophilic esophagitis, prurigo nodularis, chronic spontaneous urticaria, and COPD in different age populations. More than 900,000 patients are being treated with Dupixent globally.

Dupilumab Development Program

Dupilumab is being jointly developed by Sanofi and Regeneron under a global collaboration agreement. To date, dupilumab has been studied across more than 60 clinical studies involving more than 10,000 patients with various chronic diseases driven in part by type 2 inflammation.

In addition to the currently approved indications, Sanofi and Regeneron are studying dupilumab in a broad range of diseases driven by type 2 inflammation or other allergic processes in phase 3 studies, including chronic pruritus of unknown origin and bullous pemphigoid. These potential uses of dupilumab are currently under clinical investigation, and the safety and efficacy in these conditions have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.

NEJM publishes ALTUVIIIO XTEND-Kids phase 3 data supporting its potential to transform the treatment landscape for children with severe hemophilia A

 

   

ALTUVIIIO provides high-sustained factor levels with once-weekly dosing in children under 12 with hemophilia A

   

XTEND-Kids results show highly effective bleed protection in hemophilia A with no inhibitor development to factor VIII

Paris, July 17, 2024 – Full results from the XTEND-Kids phase 3 study published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) highlights the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic profile of ALTUVIIIO [Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), Fc-VWF-XTEN Fusion Protein]. ALTUVIIIO (efanesoctocog alfa), a first-in-class, high-sustained factor VIII replacement therapy, is approved for adults and children with hemophilia A for routine prophylaxis and on-demand treatment to control bleeding episodes as well as for perioperative management (surgery).

Lynn Malec, MD

Medical Director of Comprehensive Center for Bleeding Disorders and Associate Investigator at The Versiti Blood Research Institute, and Associate Professor of Medicine and Pediatrics at The Medical College of Wisconsin

“Children represent a population for which it has been historically difficult to achieve effective bleed prevention and these published results demonstrate an important breakthrough as we strive to optimize the standard of care. Achieving high-sustained factor activity with once-weekly dosing helps mitigate the need to make a tradeoff between the treatment burden of factor replacement therapy and efficacy, which we often witness in treating severe hemophilia.”

The pivotal XTEND-Kids study published in NEJM shows ALTUVIIIO met primary and secondary endpoints, which included occurrence of factor VIII inhibitors and annualized bleed rates (ABRs). The results show no inhibitor development to factor VIII was detected with ALTUVIIIO (0% [95% confidence interval (CI)] 0–5]). The median annualized bleed rate (ABR) was 0.00 (interquartile range [IQR]: 0.00-1.02), and the estimated mean (95% CI) ABR was 0.61 (0.42–0.90) in the study of 73 patients treated per protocol. In the pediatric population, clearance of administered factor concentrates from the blood is greater than in adults, often meaning injections are needed 2-4 times per week using standard (SHL) or extended half-life (EHL) factor VIII products.

Prevention of all joint bleeds is critical to maintain joint health throughout life. Eighty-two percent of the children treated with once-weekly ALTUVIIIO had zero joint bleeds, demonstrating ALTUVIIIO weekly prophylaxis has the potential to provide long-term preservation of joint health.

Dietmar Berger, MD, PhD

Global Head of Development and Chief Medical Officer at Sanofi

“The XTEND-Kids data validate the connection between high-sustained factor activity levels and improved health outcomes, including joint health. Offering a treatment option that emphasizes effective bleed protection in children with hemophilia can help give families increased peace of mind when their loved ones participate in everyday activities. The results are a testament to our scientific expertise and commitment to redefine the standard of care for children living with hemophilia through ALTUVIIIO and our broader portfolio of hemophilia therapies.”

ALTUVIIIO was well-tolerated in children, and no adverse events led to treatment discontinuation. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (>10%) were SARS-CoV-2 test positive, upper respiratory tract infection, and fever (pyrexia). No serious allergic reactions, anaphylaxis, or embolic or thrombotic events were reported.

About ALTUVIIIO

ALTUVIIIO [Antihemophilic Factor (Recombinant), Fc-VWF-XTEN Fusion Protein] is a first-in-class high-sustained factor VIII therapy that is designed to extend protection from bleeds with once-weekly prophylactic dosing for adults and children with hemophilia A. In adults and adolescents, ALTUVIIIO has a 3 to 4-fold longer half-life relative to standard and extended half-life factor VIII products, providing high-sustained factor activity levels within normal to near-normal range, allowing for once-weekly administration. ALTUVIIIO is the first factor VIII therapy that has been shown to break through the von Willebrand factor ceiling, which imposes a half-life limitation on earlier generation factor VIII therapies. ALTUVIIIO builds on the innovative Fc fusion technology by adding a region of von Willebrand factor and XTEN polypeptides to extend its time in circulation.

ALTUVIIIO is currently approved and marketed in the US, Taiwan, and Japan. On June 17, 2024, it was approved by the European Commission for the treatment and prevention of bleeds and perioperative prophylaxis in hemophilia A under the name ALTUVOCT.

ALTUVIIIO is the first factor VIII therapy to receive Breakthrough Therapy Designation by the US Food and Drug Administration in May 2022, Fast Track Designation in February 2021, and Orphan Drug Designation in 2017. The European Commission granted orphan designation in June 2019.

About XTEND-Kids

The XTEND-Kids study (NCT04759131) was an open-label, non-randomized interventional study of once-weekly ALTUVIIIO in previously treated patients younger than 12 years of age with severe hemophilia A. Patients (N=74) received once-weekly ALTUVIIIO (50 IU/kg) prophylaxis for 52 weeks. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of factor VIII inhibitors. Secondary endpoints included annualized bleed rates (ABR) of treated bleeds, bleed treatment, joint health, quality of life, perioperative management, pharmacokinetics, and safety.

An ongoing extension study, XTEND-ed (NCT04644575) is evaluating the long-term safety and efficacy of ALTUVIIIO in previously treated patients with severe hemophilia A for up to four years.

About Hemophilia A

Hemophilia A is a rare condition in which the ability of a person’s blood to clot properly is impaired, leading to excessive and spontaneous bleeds into joints that can result in joint damage and chronic pain, and potentially impact quality of life. Disease severity is determined by the level of clotting factor activity in a person’s blood, meaning there is a negative correlation between bleeding risk and factor activity levels.

These risks and uncertainties include among other things, unexpected regulatory actions or delays, or government regulation generally, that could affect the availability or commercial potential of the product, the fact that product may not be commercially successful, the uncertainties inherent in research and development, including future clinical data and analysis of existing clinical data relating to the product, including post marketing, unexpected safety, quality or manufacturing issues, competition in general, risks associated with intellectual property and any related future litigation and the ultimate outcome of such litigation, and volatile economic and market conditions, and the impact that pandemics or other global crises may have on us, our customers, suppliers, vendors, and other business partners, and the financial condition of any one of them, as well as on our employees and on the global economy as a whole. The risks and uncertainties also include the uncertainties discussed or identified in the public filings with the SEC and the AMF made by Sanofi, including those listed under “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in Sanofi’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.
