What is Renal cell carcinoma ?

Why using TKI as RCC treatments ?

What are the available TKI? What are their strenghts and weakness ?

How will pazopanib enter the RCC market ?

Renal cell Carcinoma Renal cell Carcinoma ( RCC)( RCC)

$ 1 billion in 2006

RCC market is expected to more than double before 2017 Decision ressources inc Pharmacor report’s Renal cell

Role of surgery:

5

(early stage tumours)

for 25% of patients

5-years survival rates up to 90-95%

6

limited Efficacity, side effects ++bad cost-effectivness

RCC patients needed improvement in treatment !!

7

75% of RCC comes from pVHL mutation (Von Hippel-Lindau protein)

8

-New blood vessels are required to support the growth of a tumor beyond the size 1 to 2 mm3

-Tumour cells promoting pro- angiogenic factors

-“angiogenic Switch” due to the tumor hypoxia

Many kidney cancers are associated with a kinase mutation responsible for angiogenesis factors overexpression

TKIs are targeted therapies: increasing response and reducing side effects.

• Hypothyroidism plays a major part in treatment-induced fatigue

50

Sorafenib Sunitinib Pazopanib

Hypothyroidism 41% 85% 7%

Hypothyroidism related to tyrosine kinase inhibitors: an emerging toxic effect of targeted therapy

Pazopanib must be less inhibiting a kinase implied in the thyroid function

Available hypothesis are:

•Inhibition of iodine uptake

•Inhibition of thyroid peroxydase

•Regression of the gland vascularisation

There was no difference between pazopanib and placebo (P > 0.05) at any of the on-therapy assessment time points.

Cora N. Sternberg A randomized, double-blind phase III study of pazopanib in treatment-naive and cytokine-pretreated patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, 2009

Pazopanib really reduces adverse effects of TKI treatment in RCC

Adverse effects will now play a keyrole in the TKI developpement strategy

Will the the upcoming molecule be better than pazopanib ?

52

Lots of on-going studies for theses TKIs in RCC indication

◦ Sorafenib vs interferon

◦ ASSURE Sorafenib or Sunitinib as adjuvant

◦ COMPARZ study ( Ph III )Pazopanib vs Sunitinib

875 patients enrolled with advanced/metastatic RCCdatas expected during 2010
