Novadiscovery takes off with 5 Series A financing – European Biotechnology

Friday, January 10th, 2020

In silico clinical trials pioneer Novadiscovery SA has raised 5m in a series A financing led by Swiss Debiopharm Innovation Fund.

French in silico clinical trial specialist Novadiscovery said it will use the 5m tranche of a 7m Series A funding round with Debiopharm Innovation Fund SA to scale its in silico clinical trial simulation platform Jink from a consulting to software as a service (SaaS) model, which is compliant with FDA priorities and requirements. Novadiscovery pioneers the use of in silicoclinical trials prior to human drug testing to predict drug efficacy and optimize clinical trail design. Several hundred disease and disease subtype-specific parameters are combined in the company's in silico models that mimic the physiology and co-morbidities of virtual patients.

Knowledge-based in silico modelling of clinical trials holds the potential to predict outcomes and optimise the design of clinical trials with the aim to reduce research & development (R&D) costs and time-to-market of novel drugs. Most recently, Novadiscovery accurately modelled the Phase I outcomes of the FXR agonist EYP001 in healthy and subjects infected with the hepatitis B virus (HBX) in a Phase I study. Furthermore, Jink was used to predict Phase II outcomes of a combination of EYP001 with standard therapy.

The Computational Model integrates 300+ biological variables and 600+ parameters. With seven mechanistic submodels (including the effect of FXR agonist on HBV replication, HBV excretion, bile acid physiology and EYP001, ETV, and pegylated interferon drug models), the model has been used to predict quantitative efficacy of treatments on disease-related endpoints (eg. plasma HBV DNA and HBsAg concentrations) in a virtual population. All the submodels are ultimately combined into a multi-scale Computational Model simulating the dynamics of biological entities at the molecular, cellular and organ levels.

We have seen the significant positive impact our in silico trials platform can have on reducing R&D costs and compressing time-to-market for new drugs and in drug repositioning, stressed Franois-Henri Boissel, CEO and Co-Founder of Nova. This funding allows us to accelerate the development of our platform in a SaaS model that will make it available to a growing number of clients and project, notably in the US. We intend to complete the 7m Series A in 2020.

Reducing R&D costs and time-to-market has become a key strategic objective for healthcare companies and payors. The in silico trial market is evaluated to grow to $2,88bn in annual revenue by 2022, when it will still represent only a small fraction of $165bn annual drug R&D spent.

Reducing number of real patients involved in clinical trials is also a main issue, for both the industry and the regulators. Because they are not so many considering the number of drugs to be evaluated, and their participation in a clinical trial must be as ethical as possible. Novas unique hybrid approach to running in silico clinical trials presents several benefits, one of which being that it can operate in data-poor environments, which is the biggest hurdle more conventional artificial intelligence (AI)-based approaches are facing.

Former Tomorrows World presenter set to address biotechnology event – The Scotsman

Friday, January 10th, 2020

Published: 16:50 Updated: 17:04 Monday 06 January 2020

A renowned scientist and former Tomorrows World presenter has been announced as one of the keynote speakers at the Industrial Biotechnology Innovation Centre (IBioIC) annual conference next month.

Vivienne Parry will address the event, which is now in its sixth year and expected to attract more than 450 delegates including IB business leaders, policy-makers, investors and innovators and technical experts from around the world. They will congregate in Glasgow on 5 and 6 February, and will see innovative companies exhibiting their smart solutions to a global audience.

Parry, a scientist by training, is the head of engagement at Genomics England and a UK Research and Innovation board member and has extensive writing and broadcasting experience that has inspired a generation of scientists.

She said industrial biotechnology (IB) start-ups need to get out and tell people what they are doing, quickly showing the solution to a problem scientists can sometimes struggle to communicate to policy-makers and the public the significance of what they are doing to save the planet.

Debut Biotechnology Closes $2.6M Seed Round to Bring Continuous Biomanufacturing of High-Value Molecules to Pharma – PR Web

Friday, January 10th, 2020

Debut Biotechnology

SAN DIEGO (PRWEB) January 07, 2020

Debut Biotechnology, a UC-Irvine spinout that is advancing scalable cell-free biomanufacturing, today announced that it has closed a $2.6M seed round from leading venture capital firms and angel investors. The oversubscribed round was led by KdT Ventures, with participation from Better Ventures, FTW Ventures, and SpringTide Ventures.

We invested in Debut because the way we produce therapeutics and high value chemicals will dramatically change in the next 10 years as the pharma industry transitions from complex, multi-step batch manufacturing, to a far more cost-effective and efficient continuous manufacturing system, said Cain McClary, Founder and Managing Partner of KdT Ventures. Debut Bio will be at the forefront of this shift, which we believe represents one of the most promising opportunities in pharma.

Debut Bio helps the pharmaceutical and specialty chemical industries manufacture high-value molecules by combining custom-designed immobilized enzymes with continuous biomanufacturing processes. Through the utilization of plug-and-play enzyme cartridges, the companys cell-free platform has the ability to transform low-value bio-renewable materials into high value therapeutics and specialty chemicals.

At our core, we are rethinking industrial biomanufacturing and aiming to produce high value molecules in better ways. Natures enzymes have the ability to create complex natural products, so why reinvent the wheel with chemical synthesis? said Dr. Joshua Britton, CEO and Founder of Debut Biotechnology. Enzyme pathways and evolved proteins hold the key.

Debut Bios enzyme cartridges are sequentially arranged in a manner which mimics pathways found in plants and other organisms. Each cartridge is finely-tuned to provide the ideal temperature, pH, concentration, solvent, and reaction time for each individual step to maximize enzymatic productivity and product titer levels. The platform requires far fewer steps than traditional pharma manufacturing and avoids the use of environmentally harmful chemistry. Importantly, it overcomes many challenges typically associated with relying on cells for biomanufacturing.

Bacteria and yeast have been the workhorses of industrial biomanufacturing for years. Unfortunately, these biofactories have their drawbacks; reaction times can be slow, the product and starting material have difficulty passing through the cell wall, and each cell must be reprogrammed to produce a new molecule, said Dr. Britton. Debut Bio envisions an alternative route.

In Debut Bios system, reactants are passed from one enzyme reactor to another to build in-vitro or cell-free biosynthetic pathways. The companys platform uses a sustainable approach by leveraging advanced enzymes outside of the cell to maximize performance and avoid issues with cell-based systems. The platform technology operates under a continuous manufacturing regime that will provide scale, consistency, and ultimately the ability to produce a biomolecule with the click of a button.

Debut Bio has currently partnered with two large manufacturers to integrate its platform into their existing pipelines. The seed funding will be used to support these integrations, expand business development, double the science team, and create a pilot production system.

Were humbled to have received both support and validation from world class, science-focused investors, said Brady Beauchamp, COO and Co-Founder of Debut Biotechnology. We plan to build on this validation in the coming months with our initial customers in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry.

This funding comes following an announcement last year that the company spun out of UC Irvine with the exclusive license of two inventions developed by Dr. Joshua Britton and Professor Greg Weiss.

A Preview Of JPMorgan’s Healthcare Conference: Focus On Value-Creating Themes, 2020 Expectations – Benzinga

Friday, January 10th, 2020

The 38th annual JPMorgan Healthcare Conference, which is tipped off as the biggest health care investment symposium, kicks off Monday in San Francisco, California.

From the high and mighty to the smallest of nanocaps, biopharma and health care companies have scheduled presentations at the four-day event. It's a no-brainer that the presentations will move stocks and serve as key catalysts for respective companies.

BofA Securities analyst Geoff Meacham expects investors to be acutely focused on 2020 expectations and the potential to maintain the positive momentum of 2019's year-end rally. The analyst is bracing for a conservative tone from larger-cap names, given the moderate but improving growth expectations that would offer scope for multiple guidance revisions throughout the year.

Meacham expects discussions at the conference to be focused on value creating themes such as expanding indications, new product cycles, especially with oncology, inflammation & immunology and orphan diseases and advancing innovation in gene/cell therapy.

"Combined with the unlikelihood of near-term major structural reform and P/E ratios that now lag improving expectations, we remain positive on the sector and the outlook for multiple expansion, with greater generalist participation," Meacham wrote in a note this week.

Here's what BofA expects from some key presenters in its coverage universe.

Bristol-Myers Squibb Co (NYSE: BMY)

Bristol-Myers Squibb, which completed the acquisition of Celgene late last year, is likely to give at least partial guidance. Meacham believes 2020 guidance could be an early positive driver of shares.

Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (NASDAQ: VRTX)

The analyst expects Vertex to provide fourth-quarter update on its cystic fibrosis agent Trikafta, with the analyst expecting sales of $223 million, well above the consensus estimate of $64 million.

BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (NASDAQ: BMRN)

BioMarin could delve on the commercial opportunity of valrox and vosoritide following the filing for the former and positive Phase 3 data for the latter.

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ: REGN)

Regeneron is likely to release fourth-quarter sales of Eylea. Given Eylea's declining growth, Meacham said the focus could shift to Dupixent, which remains a key P&L driver.

Biogen Inc (NASDAQ: BIIB)

BofA expects Biogen to specify the timing of its aducanumab regulatory filing, if it hasn't been already submitted. The company could also announce a settlement with Mylan NV (NASDAQ: MYL) over the Tecfidera intellectual property right.

Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALXN)

Meacham expects Alexion to focus on its portfolio diversification strategy, especially due to pressure from activists and competitors. Updates on ALXN1830 and anti-Factor D ACH-5228 is likely.

Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: GILD)

Gilead is likely to update on its global launch plans for filotinib, with the second half of 2020 being the likely timeframe.

Amgen, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN)

Meachem expects Amgen to discuss the integration of Otezla into its I&I franchise, update the status of assets in its oncology pipeline and give its expectations for the launch of its biosimilars.

Biotechnology in Countries Starting with "I" – Part 13:… – Biotech Blog

Friday, January 10th, 2020

This is a guest post from Susan K Finston, President of Finston Consulting. Do you have a response to Susans post? Respond in the comments section below.

In all candor, I had no long-term intentions in February 2013 when I started this irregular series tracking biotechnology in countries starting with the letter I. While touching on topical developments for biotech in Iceland, Iran, Ireland, and Italy (Part 3 and Part 11), Israel and India figured prominently due to my direct experience. I first wrote about Israel in February 2013 as the first installment in the series, and have returned to chart ongoing developments (Part 5, Part 8 and Part 12), and India (Part 2, Part 7, Part 10). (Along the way, I also posted a separate 2-part series anticipating changes in policy at the start of the first Modi Administration here and here.)

In retrospect, both Israel and India bear witness to the transformative power of intellectual property (IP) protection for commercial development of biotechnology. So I thought it would be fun to start off the 2020s by taking stock of just how much has changed for innovative life sciences over the last decade, with this additional installment on Israel (and another in the coming weeks on India).

To recap: I first started tracking Israels IP regime in 1994 as a Second Secretary at the Economic Section of the US Embassy. At that time, Teva was Israels largest private employer and had very definite views on Israels implementation of the new WTO Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). Suffice it to say, when Teva talked, the Government of Israel listened.Consequently Israel backtracked on early commitments to implement effective marketing exclusivity for pharmaceuticals (TRIPS 39.3 obligations) and also dragged its feet on needed patent law reforms. Throughout my remaining tenure at the State Department, subsequent efforts at PhRMA (Fall 1999 Summer 2005) and beyond, Israel resisted adopting IP reforms needed to promote investment in commercialization of innovative life sciences.

Recognized as the Start-Up Nation for many years, Israel leveraged excellence in basic science for successful commercialization of military, communications and related technologies, and expected similar success in innovative biopharma. Despite longstanding, generous government support for basic research, effective technology transfer, and broader rule of law culture, however, Israel failed to attract meaningful biotech investment.

At the U.S.-Israel Biotechnology Business Roundtable held on the margins of BIO2010 in Chicago, then Chief Scientist Dr. Eli Opper openly expressed frustration at the absence of global biopharma R&D centers and sought advice on how to improve the enabling environment for biopharma. As noted previously, Israel had focused more on direct subsidies and not on needed legal reforms, and participants in the 2010 breakfast meeting repeatedly raised IP as an important barrier to R&D investment. Although it took some time for Israel to commit fully to necessary reforms, Israel ultimately passed IP reforms important for biotechnology in 2014.

Israels implementation of WTO TRIPS data exclusivity and patent reforms provided an important signal to the international innovative industry, precipitating an unprecedented flowering of innovative technologies.

Highlights include:

Whereas Israeli technologies were previously licensed out at early stages due to the inability to fund translational research, Israels innovative life sciences companies are now well represented across the full innovative life cycle, from Seed through Revenue growth.

The bottom line: IATIs Annual Israeli Life Science Industry Report 2019 estimates that approximately 1600 life sciences companies are active in Israel, nearly double the number in existence in 2010. Israels biotech companies are now able to attract both domestic and foreign investment across a range of established and emerging areas of technology, including agrobiotech, digital health, medical cannibis, the microbiome therapeutics, womens health, regenerative medicine, and more.

And in the process Israel has transformed from a poster-child of TRIPS defiance into a real-world demonstration of the critical importance of effective IP for biotechnology commercialization, even in the Start-Up Nation.

What a difference a decade can make.

Introducing Medigen Biotechnology (GTSM:3176), The Stock That Slid 62% In The Last Five Years – Simply Wall St

Monday, December 30th, 2019

We think intelligent long term investing is the way to go. But unfortunately, some companies simply dont succeed. For example, after five long years the Medigen Biotechnology Corp. (GTSM:3176) share price is a whole 62% lower. We certainly feel for shareholders who bought near the top.

View 2 warning signs we detected for Medigen Biotechnology

Medigen Biotechnology wasnt profitable in the last twelve months, it is unlikely well see a strong correlation between its share price and its earnings per share (EPS). Arguably revenue is our next best option. When a company doesnt make profits, wed generally expect to see good revenue growth. Thats because its hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit.

In the last half decade, Medigen Biotechnology saw its revenue increase by 5.6% per year. Thats not a very high growth rate considering it doesnt make profits. This lacklustre growth has no doubt fueled the loss of 17% per year, in that time. Wed want to see proof that future revenue growth is likely to be significantly stronger before getting too interested in Medigen Biotechnology. When a stock falls hard like this, some investors like to add the company to a watchlist (in case the business recovers, longer term).

The graphic below depicts how earnings and revenue have changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image).

Balance sheet strength is crucial. It might be well worthwhile taking a look at our free report on how its financial position has changed over time.

Its nice to see that Medigen Biotechnology shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 49% over the last year. Theres no doubt those recent returns are much better than the TSR loss of 17% per year over five years. This makes us a little wary, but the business might have turned around its fortunes. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. For example, weve discovered 2 warning signs for Medigen Biotechnology (of which 1 is major) which any shareholder or potential investor should be aware of.

But note: Medigen Biotechnology may not be the best stock to buy. So take a peek at this free list of interesting companies with past earnings growth (and further growth forecast).

Please note, the market returns quoted in this article reflect the market weighted average returns of stocks that currently trade on TW exchanges.
