Antibody-Guided Discovery Of Potent Fusion Inhibitors Of Influenza Virus
Influenza therapeutics with new targets and mechanisms of action are urgently needed to
combat potential new pandemics, emerging viruses, and constantly mutating circulating strains.
We report here on discovery and structural characterization of potent peptidic inhibitors against
influenza hemagglutinin (HA). Guided by the knowledge of the molecular interactions and the
mechanism of anti-stem broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) CR6261, CR9114 and FI6v3, we
selected and optimized molecules that effectively mimic the bnAb functionality. Our lead
compound potently neutralizes influenza A group 1 viruses by inhibiting HA-mediated fusion. Co-
crystal structures with H1 and H5 HAs reveal that the lead compound recapitulates the bnAb
hotspot interactions.

Stream Keynote Address:
Trends In Developing Oligo Specific CMC Understanding By Exploiting Prior Knowledge
And CMC ‘Hot Topics
There is currently no regulatory guidance specifically for the development of oligonucleotide
therapeutic agents, and as a result existing small molecule guidance is interpreted by sponsors. The
presentation will provide an overview of key CMC which have benefited from harmonization and
sharing of Prior Knowledge. The presentation will also contain examples of industry collaboration and
the future directions and prioritise in publishing data on oligo CMC ‘hot topics’.

09.00 – 09.30 Peptide Therapeutics: Novel Peptides For Novel Disease Treatments
Rami Hannoush, Principal Scientist, Genentech
MiRNA Therapeutics: From Bench To Bedside
• Non-coding RNAs play an important role in cellular regulation in health and disease and hence
could be novel targets for future medicines
• MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that regulate biochemical pathways and networks of
pathways by the mechanism of RNA interference (RNAi). MicroRNA-21 has been implicated in
multiple organs as a microRNA associated with fibrotic diseases and cancer
• The presentation will summarize the opportunities and challenges of developing microRNA-based
drugs and will illustrate the successful generation of an anti-fibrotic microRNA-based therapeutic
approach by targeting microRNA-21 with an antisense oligonucleotide (anti-miR-21). This
microRNA-based drug is now in a phase 2 clinical trial for a fibrotic kidney disease called Alport
Syndrome

Nanostar Sieving For Liquid Phase Synthesis Of Oligonucleotides
• More than 130 oligonucleotide drugs are in trials and many of these for mainstream medical
needs. This is creating an imperative to develop scalable technology to manufacturfe oligos at
the multi-ton scale
• Nanostar seiving uses iterative synthesis via protecting groups coupled to nanomembranes to
sieve the growing oligos from reaction debris, so that the whole synthesis is carried out in the
liquid phase
• Oligos produced by nanostar sieving are more than 90%pure before chromatograhpy; the
process can be scaled to any bacth size; and because it is liquid phase process controls can be
used to ensure quality

The Oligonucleotide Agent BC 007 For Neutralization Of Functionally Active Pathogenic
Autoantibodies Directed Against ß 1-Adrenoceptors In Heart Failure Patients – First
Phase II Data
• Functionally active pathogenic autoantibodies (fAAb) against G-protein coupled receptors
(fGPCR-AAbs) are triggers and sustainers of a variety of diseases, mostly affecting the heart and
vascular system as e.g. heart failure (HF; here autoantibodies against the β1-adrenoceptor (fβ1-
AAb)) or pulmonary arterial hypertension (here fAAB against the endothelin ETA-receptor) and
sinus bradycardia (fAAB against the muscarinic M2 receptor)
• As already seen in elderly healthy but fGPCR-AAb positive volunteers in Phase-I, BC 007
neutralizes these fAAbs in patients with progressed HF as well
• Besides this demonstrated mode of action, Phase-I safety tests showed an excellent tolerability,
no clinically relevant side effects. Transient elevated aPTT to subclinical values, paralleling the
infusion, were observed in some subjects
• A two-arm randomized, open-label Phase-IIa study, investigating the temporal persistence of the
fβ1-AAb neutralization, safety and pharmacokinetic in chronic HF patients with reduced ejection
fraction, including twenty β1-AAb positive HF patients and ten positive patients who serve as
controls, is currently running. First efficacy data will be presented
