Emmanuel Dulac, President and Chief Executive Officer at Zealand Pharma, comments:
“Zealand Pharma has continued to undergo a transformational first nine months in 2021 and developed into an integrated biopharmaceutical company by leveraging our innovative peptide platform to address unmet needs in type 1 diabetes management and rare diseases. We are progressing with the early stages of our commercial launch of ZEGALOGUE® (dasiglugacon) injection with Zegalogue currently available to 65% of all commercial lives. As our commercial team ramps up the ZEGALOGUE commercial launch, we also look forward to building upon the momentum to advance our other pipeline programs. Recently, we have been encouraged by preclinical data from ZP8396, our Amylin Analogue, and clinical data from GLP-1, our Glucagon Dual-Agonist BI 456906, both sets presented at the recent The Obesity Society Annual Meeting. Additionally, we entered into a collaboration agreement with DEKA Research & Development Corp. and are working to advance the development of their infusion pump to be used with dasiglucagon as a potential treatment option of CHI. Finally, while the Zegalogue net revenue projections have not materialized as we had hoped and we have lowered our revenue guidance as a result, we remain confident in the work that we have done to set the stage for Zegalogue to have commercial success in 2022 and beyond.”
Financial guidance for 2021
Net product revenue from the sales of commercial products is expected to be DKK 190 million +/- 10%. This is a decrease of DKK 30 million from the guidance issued on March 11, 2021. The reduction in net revenue from the previous guidance is driven by lower-than-expected sales of Zegalogue for 2021.
In 2021, Zealand Pharma expects revenue from existing license agreements. However, since such revenue is uncertain in terms of size and timing, Zealand Pharma does not intend to provide guidance on such revenue.
Net operating expenses in 2021 are expected to be DKK 1,250 million +/-10% and remains unchanged from the financial guidance issued on March 11, 2021.
Update regarding COVID-19
Zealand Pharma continues to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and take precautions to keep our employees, patients, business and clinical partners safe. This is an ongoing exercise in monitoring the effects of the pandemic on all of our key stakeholders and responding appropriately. We maintain compliance with guidance from applicable government and health authorities as appropriate. We have adapted the way we work to support our community’s efforts to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 and protect our employees, while continuing to provide patient care and maintain business continuity.
Zealand Pharma has taken measures to secure its discovery activities, which remain ongoing, while work in laboratories and offices has been organized to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission. The impact of COVID-19 on our research activities has thus far been minimal. Employees who can work from home have been doing so, while those needing to work in laboratory facilities are divided into shifts to reduce the number of people gathered at one time. Business travel has been minimized and online and video conference technology is used to meet virtually rather than in person. We have continued our clinical trials while working with authorities, investigators, trial sites and contract research organizations to minimize site visits and ensure optimal trial follow-up. In late April, Zealand Pharma in Denmark commenced a gradual return to office program, which currently allows up to 60% occupancy, consistent with local health authority guidelines and practice including frequent testing, sanitizing, and other protective measures.
COVID-19 restrictions have not affected our phase 3-program for dasiglucagon in congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) and we expect topline data from the second Phase 3 trial in 2021. The pandemic impacted the speed of patient recruitment for our Phase 3 trial with glepaglutide for the treatment of short bowel syndrome, and results are expected in 2022. We currently do not anticipate changes to the timelines for the bi-hormonal artificial pancreas pump Phase 3 program.
Our research and in particular our development programs may be impacted if the pandemic continues to put increased pressure on hospital systems, slow recruitment of patients into the trials or cause lockdowns that affect our clinical trial sites if key external medical resources are diverted elsewhere.
Direct engagement with health care providers and patients has been reduced and transformed by leveraging virtual meetings, training, and support. Our commercial team is focused on supporting the businesses for the V-Go® wearable insulin delivery device and Zegalogue while ensuring a continued high level of service and support for existing patients.
Commercial Update
Zegalogue® (dasiglucagon) injection
Zegalogue (dasiglucagon) injection was approved by the U.S. FDA on March 22, 2021 for the treatment of severe hypoglycemia in people with diabetes aged 6 and over. Zegalogue is available in both an auto injector and a prefilled syringe. The approval was based on efficacy results from three pivotal trials in adults and children with type 1 diabetes, whereby the primary endpoint of time to plasma glucose recovery, was successfully achieved with a median time to blood glucose recovery of 10 minutes following Zegalogue administration. In these Phase 3 studies, the most common adverse events reported (?2%) were nausea, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, and injection site pain in adults; and nausea, vomiting, headache and injection site pain in pediatric patients.
Zegalogue launched in the U.S. in late June 2021. The Company’s primary goal during launch is to ensure all eligible patients have access to Zegalogue and feel supported in their treatment plan. Since approval, Zealand Pharma has made substantial progress working with Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), Managed Care Organizations, and state Medicaid agencies to add Zegalogue to their respective formularies. As a result of this work, Zegalogue now has unrestricted coverage in approximately 65% of commercial lives which accounts for more than 120 million lives and approximately 55% of Medicaid lives, which accounts for 40 million Medicaid lives. Beginning in 2022, we expect Zegalogue will have unrestricted coverage in approximately 70% of commercial and Medicaid lives, setting the stage for a sustained acceleration of growth.
Zegalogue net revenue for the period of July 1 – September 30, 2021 was DKK 3.1 million / USD $0.5 million. Year-to-Date net revenue is DKK 4.3 million / USD $0.7 million.
For the year, net product revenue of Zegalogue is anticipated to be below our initial revenue targets. The reduction in revenue is a result of lower-than-expected uptake of prescriptions due to the increase in timelines for approved drug coverage agreements with payers to translate into approved prescriptions in pharmacies.
V-Go® wearable insulin delivery device
The V-Go series of Wearable Insulin Delivery Devices are indicated for continuous subcutaneous infusion of either 20 Units of insulin (0.83 U/hr), 30 Units of insulin (1.25 U/hr) or 40 Units of insulin (1.67 U/hr) in one 24-hour time period and on-demand bolus dosing in 2-Unit increments (up to 36 Units per one 24-hour time period) in adults requiring insulin.
V-Go net revenue for the period of July 1 – September 30, 2021 was DKK 49.1 million / USD $7.8 million. Year-to-Date net revenue is DKK 139.0 million / USD $22.4 million.
Pipeline Update
Type 1 Diabetes Management
Dasiglucagon for bihormonal Artificial Pancreas systems
Zealand Pharma is developing a pre-filled dasiglucagon cartridge intended for use in Bihormonal Artificial Pancreas systems, which holds potential to improve the management of type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Zealand is collaborating with Beta Bionics, developer of the bihormonal iLet® bionic pancreas system, a pocket-sized, dual-chamber (insulin and glucagon), autonomous, glycemic control system. The iLet® bionic pancreas is an investigational device, limited by federal (or United States) law to investigational use only. The iLet® bionic pancreas intends to mimic a biological pancreas by calculating and dosing insulin and/or glucagon (dasiglucagon) as needed, based on input data from a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) worn by a person with diabetes. Top-line results from a Phase 2, pre-pivotal trial in people with type 1 diabetes showed that the bihormonal iLet® bionic pancreas using insulin and dasiglucagon provided improved glycemic control relative to the iLet® bionic pancreas delivering insulin alone. During the bihormonal and insulin-only periods, 90% (9 of 10) and 50% (5 of 10) of participants, respectively, had a mean CGM glucose level of < 154 mg/dL.1,2 Importantly these glucose levels were achieved while the median time with CGM glucose levels < 54 mg/dL was only 0.2% during the bihormonal period and 0.6% during the insulin-only period.
Zealand’s partner, Beta Bionics, and the study sponsor, the Jaeb Center for Health Research, are on track to begin screening in the fourth quarter 2021 into the Phase 3, Bihormonal iLet® Bionic Pancreas Pivotal Program, utilizing insulin and dasiglucagon. The program includes three sub-trials, which are anticipated to provide the clinical data necessary to support the market application for the bihormonal iLet® bionic pancreas and the new-drug application (NDA) for the use of dasiglucagon in bihormonal Artificial Pancreas systems. The first of these three sub-trials will be a three-month single-arm, bihormonal-only safety and test-run trial that will enroll two participants at each of the approximately 30 clinical sites. After 20 pediatric participants and 20 adult participants have been successfully treated for a minimum of 3 weeks in this trial, the two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) will begin – one enrolling ~ 350 pediatric participants (6–17 years of age) and the other enrolling 350 adult participants (? 18 years of age) with T1D. The primary outcome measure in the RCTs is superiority in HbA1c of the bihormonal iLet® bionic pancreas using dasiglucagon relative to the insulin-only iLet® system after 26 weeks of therapy on the two interventions. The bihomonal iLet® bionic pancreas performance will also be compared to intensified usual care using CGM therapy in a third arm in both the pediatric and adult RCTs.
Dasiglucagon mini-dose pen
Zealand is developing a dasiglucagon mini-dose pen for potential treatment of exercise-induced hypoglycemia in people living with type 1 Diabetes and for people who suffer from meal-induced hypoglycemia following gastric bypass surgery.
Clinical studies conducted in hospital settings have shown the potential for using low doses of dasiglucagon to correct moderate hypoglycemia. Top-line results from a Phase 2a dose-finding trial in people with type 1 diabetes were presented at the American Diabetes Association congress in June 2021, and top-line results of a post bariatric hypoglycemia Phase 2a trial were reported in 2020.
Out-patient Phase 2 trials in exercise-induced hypoglycemia in people living with type 1 diabetes and for people that suffer from meal-induced hypoglycemia following gastric bypass surgery were initiated in the second quarter this year (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04764968 and NCT04836273). The Phase 2 trial in people with T1D specifically evaluates the effectiveness of pen-administered low-dose dasiglucagon for prevention and treatment of hypoglycemia in people with type 1 diabetes.
Rare Diseases
Dasiglucagon for congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI)
The potential for chronic dasiglucagon infusion delivered via a pump to prevent hypoglycemia in children with CHI is being evaluated in a Phase 3 program. The aim is to reduce or eliminate the need for intensive hospital treatment, reduce the frequency of dangerous low blood glucose and need for constant feeding, and to potentially delay or eliminate the need for pancreatectomy. The FDA and the European Commission both granted orphan drug designation to dasiglucagon for the treatment of CHI.
We announced data from the first Phase 3 trial in the program, trial 17109, in December 2020. This trial evaluated children aged 3 months to 12 years old with more than three hypoglycemic events per week despite previous near-total pancreatectomy and/or maximum medical therapy. Dasiglucagon on top of standard of care (SOC) did not significantly reduce the rate of hypoglycemia compared to SOC alone when assessed by the primary endpoint, intermittent self-measured plasma glucose. However, hypoglycemia was reduced by 40–50% with dasiglucagon as compared to SOC alone when assessed by blinded continuous glucose monitoring. Dasiglucagon treatment was assessed to be well tolerated in the study and 31 out of 32 patients continued into the long-term extension study.
We are conducting additional analyses and engaging with regulatory authorities to discuss the results of 17109 while awaiting the outcome of a second Phase 3 trial, 17103, in neonates up to 12 months old with CHI. We expect to complete enrolment into the 17103 trial by the end of 2021 and have results in the first half of 2022.
Glepaglutide for short bowel syndrome (SBS)
Glepaglutide is a long-acting GLP-2 analog, being developed in an auto-injector with potential for convenient weekly administration for reducing or eliminating the need for parenteral support in people living with SBS. EASE-SBS 1 is the pivotal Phase 3 trial with enrolment of up to 129 patients with SBS that seeks to establish the efficacy and safety of once- and twice-weekly administration of glepaglutide. Patients will be treated for six months in EASE-SBS 1, whereafter they are offered four years continuous treatment with glepaglutide in the extension trials, EASE-SBS 2 and 3. A Phase 3b trial, EASE-SBS 4, was initiated in Q3 2021 and will assess long-term effects of glepaglutide on intestinal fluid and energy uptake.
The primary endpoint in EASE-SBS 1 is the absolute reduction in parenteral support achieved by the end of the trial. Based on a dialogue with FDA and EMA we have decided to introduce an interim analysis that could allow for an early stopping of the study for efficacy or futility before the full 129 patients have been enrolled. If the interim readout meets the criteria for early stopping, we plan to pursue an NDA submission as a next development step based on these clinical data. We expect to have all subjects needed for the interim analysis enrolled by the end of 2021 with results of the interim analysis being available in Q3 2022. The U.S. FDA granted orphan drug designation to glepaglutide for the treatment of SBS.
Dapiglutide
Dapiglutide (pINN) is a long-acting GLP-1R/GLP-2R dual agonist.
The Phase 1a single-ascending dose, safety and tolerability trial investigating dapaglutide in healthy volunteers was completed in Q3 2020 and dapiglutide was found to have an acceptable safety and tolerability profile. Results showed a plasma half-life allowing for once weekly dosing.
Based on the results of the Phase 1a trial, Zealand initiated a Phase 1b (multiple ascending dose) safety and tolerability trial and all subjects have received the last dapiglutide dose for the safety and tolerability trial with key results expected in the fourth quarter of 2021 (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04612517).
Obesity
Amylin
ZP8396 is a potent long-acting amylin analogue designed to improve solubility and allow for co-formulation with other peptides, including GLP1 analogues. Amylin analogues hold potential as both mono and combination therapies for obesity. We have initiated a Phase 1 clinical trial with ZP8396 for potential treatment of obesity. The Phase 1, First-in-Human, randomized, single ascending dose trial will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of ZP8396 administered to healthy subjects. Preclinical data on ZP8396 was presented at The Obesity Society Annual Meeting, which showed anti-obesity effects of ZP8396 in in vivo models, with up to 20% weight loss when combined with GLP1 analogue semaglutide. ZP8396 is also being developed as a potential treatment for type 2 diabetes.
BI 456906: Long-acting GLP-1/GLU dual agonist for obesity and/or diabetes (with Boehringer Ingelheim)
The GLP-1/glucagon dual agonist activates two key gut hormone receptors simultaneously and may offer better blood sugar and weight-loss control than current single-hormone receptor agonist treatments. The lead molecule BI 456906 is targeting treatment of obesity, diabetes, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). At Obesity Week in November this year Boehringer Ingelheim presented data from the Phase 1b trial, demonstrating up to 13.7% weight loss and no unexpected safety findings following 16 weeks of dosing.
Three parallel Phase 2 trials are ongoing. All subjects have been randomized in the first phase 2 trial which evaluates the dose-relationship of BI 456906 on HbA1c from baseline to 16 weeks relative to placebo in 410 people with diabetes (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04153929). Secondary objectives are to assess the effect on change in body weight and an open-label comparator (semaglutide) will allow for comparison of the effects against a pure GLP-1R agonist. The second Phase 2 randomized double-blind placebo-controlled dose-finding trial will evaluate BI 456906 in people with obesity or who are overweight with a BMI 27 kg/m2 or higher without diabetes (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04667377). Participants will receive a subcutaneous injection of either BI 456906 or placebo once a week for the duration of the trial. The primary endpoint of this trial is the percentage change in body weight at week 46 compared to placebo. The third Phase 2 randomized double-blind placebo-controlled dose-finding trial will evaluate BI 456906 in people with NASH and liver fibrosis (F2/F3) with and without diabetes (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04771273). The primary endpoint of this trial is the histological improvement of steatohepatitis without worsening of fibrosis after 48 weeks of treatment. Participants will receive a weekly subcutaneous injection of either different doses of BI 456906 or placebo for the duration of the trial. The program has received Fast Track designation from the U.S. FDA.
Boehringer Ingelheim is funding all research, development and commercialization activities related to the treatment. Zealand Pharma is eligible to receive up to EUR 345 million in outstanding milestone payments, and high-single to low-double digit royalties on global sales.
Inflammation
Zealand Pharma is pursuing multiple pre-clinical programs in inflammatory diseases which will be detailed more as they progress through development.
Complement inhibitors (with Alexion, AstraZeneca Rare Disease)
Zealand Pharma and Alexion Pharmaceuticals announced in March 2019 that they will collaborate on the discovery and development of novel peptide therapies for complement-mediated diseases. Under the terms of the agreement, Alexion and Zealand Pharma entered into an exclusive collaboration for the discovery and development of subcutaneously delivered peptide therapies directed to up to four complement pathway targets. The lead program is a long-acting inhibitor of Complement C3 which has the potential to treat a broad range of complement mediated diseases. Zealand Pharma will lead the joint discovery and research efforts through the preclinical stage, and Alexion will lead development efforts beginning with IND filing and Phase 1 trials. We are looking to initiate a Phase 1 trial of the C3 inhibitor in 2022.
For the lead target, Zealand Pharma is eligible to receive up to USD 610 million in development and sales milestone payments, plus royalties on global sales in the high single to low double digits. In addition, Alexion has the option to select up to three additional targets with Zealand Pharma eligible for USD 15 million upfront per target plus development/regulatory milestones for each target selected similar to the lead target with slightly reduced commercial milestones and royalties.
Additional Updates
On December 18, 2020 Amyndas Pharmaceuticals S.A. and Amyndas Pharmaceuticals LLC filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, which named Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Zealand Pharma A/S and Zealand Pharma U.S., Inc. as defendants. The complaint alleges claims against Zealand Pharma A/S (and its U.S. subsidiary) and its collaboration partner Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Alexion”) related to Zealand Pharma A/S’s collaboration with Alexion on C3 peptide-based assets. The complaint alleges federal and state law claims, including claims for breach of confidentiality agreements, trade secret misappropriation and unfair competition. The complaint seeks an unspecified quantum of damages plus interest and injunctive relief. On June 8, 2021 the District Court dismissed the proceedings against Zealand Pharma U.S., Inc. for failure to state a claim, and dismissed the claims against Zealand Pharma A/S on the ground that the matter should be heard in the courts of Denmark. On July 6, 2021 Amyndas moved the District Court to reconsider its dismissal of the claims against Zealand Pharma A/S (and its U.S. subsidiary) and this was also dismissed. On 27 September 2021 Amyndas filed an appeal of this decision to the First Circuit Court of Appeals. It is also seeking an order from the District Court pursuant to Rule 54(b) to render the district court decision as final.
