AB101 Addresses an Unmet Need for a Longer-Acting Basal Insulin

•  Barriers to adequate insulin utilization may include ­  Insulin/needle-averse patients

­ Safety concerns, including hypoglycemia

­ Weight gain

•  A longer-acting basal insulin represents a convenient, effective, and safe treatment option ­ AB101 is being developed as a once-weekly

subcutaneous insulin injection

­  In contrast to currently available basal insulin analogs, AB101 requires no modification to the native recombinant insulin structure

AB101 is a Slow Release Microsphere Encapsulated Peg (5 kDa)-insulin

PEG+ native Insulin = soluble insulin

5 kDa PEG attached to the N-terminus of insulin’s B-Chain using site-specific amine

PEGylation.    

Peginsulin + PLGA = slow release microspheres

•  Potency and activity are comparable to recombinant human insulin

•  Slow onset, sustained insulin increases and corresponding glucose reductions over the course of ~1 week in 2 species (rats and dogs)

•  No acute insulin release or glucose reduction observed

•  Data support weekly dosing as a basal insulin

•  To our knowledge, only non-analog (native human insulin) to have an extended duration of action

•  Similar results previously reported in a STZ-induced diabetes rat model

How Does this Translate to the Treatment of Diabetes?

•  Inter-species homology of insulin/receptor predicts insulin activity in humans

•  No expected differences in activity in diabetes compared to non-diabetes (time-action profile or pharmacodynamics)

•  Pharmacology in dogs observed at predicted doses based on: -­‐  Typical daily insulin needs supplied over one week -­‐  Allometric predictions -­‐  Adjustments for minor differences in receptor potency/activity

•  Efficacious doses in dogs can be readily translated to human clinically relevant doses

•  Projected human doses can be administered via acceptable volumes and needle gauge

•  IND-enabling work is ongoing and an IND application for clinical trials is forthcoming
