75,641,651, 5,656,272, 5,698,195, 5,698,419, issued 1997 (2017 expiry). 5,753,628 issued 1998. 7,425,330, 7,416,729, 7,404,955, 7,374,761, 7,335,358 issued 2008.
8Sued ABT over Humira patents and won $1.67bn in June 2009.
9Side EffectsBoxed warning on TB/opportunistic infection risk along with lymphoma risk due to immunosuppression. Side effects are very rare.
10MechanismTNF-alpha antibody to soluble and transmembrane TNF-alpha. TNF-a induces IL-1 and IL-6, leukocyte migration (by increasing endothelial layer permeability and expression of adhesion molecules by endothelial cells and leukocytes).
11TNF-a also activates neutrophil and eosinophil functional activity, induces acute phase reactants and other liver proteins and tissue degrading enzymes produced by synoviocytes and chrondocytes.
12Remicade reduces expression of e-selectin, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, IL-8, MCP-1 and MMP-1 and -3.
13TNF-alpha is a cytokine secreted by monocytes and macrophages, the receptor for which is TNFR1 and TNFR2. TNFR2 does not seem to have important functions.
14MoleculeIgG1-kappa chimeric antibody, 149kD. Ki 10^10. Human constant region and murine variable region.
15PharmacokineticsLinear dose-concentration relationship. T1/2 = 8.0-9.5d. No systemic accumulation.
16EconomicsMRK markets ex-US, Japan and other Asian countries. JNJ attempting to regain rights through arbitration. Mitsubishi Tanabe has US. Who has China? JNJ reports Canada as international.
17Export sales to MRK.
18CompetitionHumira (adalimumab - ABT), Enbrel (etanercept - AMGN), Cimzia (certolizumab pegol - UCB). Oral RA drugs nowhere in sight--JAK3 too toxic and p38 ineffective/toxic. PFE JAK3, Anti-CD20s will be the most serious competition.
19Markets~1 million mod-severe RA patients, ~3 million psoriasis patients, ~1 million Crohn's patients in the US.
20ManufacturingLeiden, The Netherlands was the original site.
21UsageUse is about 65% RA, 25% Crohn's and 10% other.
22Price$16,000 vs $12,000 for rivals for annual course in RA. Crohn's disease revenue less than RA?
