Amsterdam Molecular Therapeutics Receives Opinion on Glybera(R) Marketing Authorisation Application
Date:6/23/2011

AMSTERDAM, June 24, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --


 

- Dossier Re-Examination Process Initiated

Amsterdam Molecular Therapeutics (Euronext: AMT), a leader in the field of human gene therapy, today announced that it has received an opinion on its Marketing Authorisation Application (MAA) for Glybera® (alipogene tiparvovec) as a potential therapy for Lipoprotein Lipase Deficiency ("LPLD"). Following a recent meeting with the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP), AMT has been notified that, at this time, Glybera is not approvable.

Subsequent to a review of the CHMP's letter, AMT believes that Glybera can receive a positive opinion subject to generating additional data from existing patients. AMT has therefore decided to ask for a re-examination of the clinical data package.

"From what we know today, despite the disappointment, we believe that there is an indication from the CHMP that Glybera could receive approval and that the current opinion at this time is a reflection of insufficient proof of clinical benefit of Glybera as a result of low patient numbers measured for chylomicron handling for at least 12 months post treatment. The CHMP also indicated that if certain additional data from already treated patients would confirm current results by the end of 2011, an approval may be possible," noted Jörn Aldag, CEO of AMT. "In the dossier, we provided important data showing Glybera is safe and prevents episodes of pancreatitis, the major clinical complication of LPLD. We appreciate the CHMP's responsibility for caution on such an advanced therapy, so we will work diligently to generate more information and, we hope, ensure that Glybera will still reach patients."

Next steps

As part of the MAA, AMT presented data to the CHMP on Glybera showing evidence in reducing the risk of pancreatitis. Also, the company demonstrated a clear signal of patients' ability to b
