much worse than it used to be. As community physicians have grown more

comfortable treating mild patients with oral therapies, patients are increasingly being

referred to expert centers only after their disease has become more severe.

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is pulmonary hypertension

that occurs secondary to a blood clot. Our consultants note that there are not great

incidence or prevalence figures for CTEPH. However, in their experience there are

about five times more PAH patients in their practices than there are CTEPH patients,

suggesting that there may be about 5,000 treatable CTEPH patients in the U.S.

Despite the relatively small number of patients afflicted, the market for pulmonary

hypertension therapies is actually quite large in dollar terms. Infused and inhaled

prostanoids can demand $100,000+ per patient per year for treatment. With

approximately 110,000 patients worldwide, and perhaps 50,000+ patients in the U.S.

itself, worldwide sales for major PAH drugs surpassed $5B in 2016.

Major PAH Drugs - Worldwide Sales And Consensus Estimates

Source: Cowen and Company, Consensus estimate from Thomson

There are currently 13 drugs indicated for the treatment of PAH in the U.S., and these

can be broadly categorized based on their route of administration. Oral therapies

include Adempas (riociguat) from Bayer, Revatio (sildenafil) from Pfizer, Adcirca

(tadalafil) and Orenitram (treprostinil) from United Therapeutics, Tracleer (bosentan),

Opsumit (macitentan), and Uptravi (selexipag) from Actelion, and Letairis

(ambrisentan) from Gilead. These therapies tend to be used in newly presenting, less

severe patients. There are three branded infused (intravenous and subQ) prostacyclins

on the U.S. market including Remodulin (treprostinil) from United Therapeutics, Flolan

(epoprostenol) from GlaxoSmithKline, and Veletri (epoprostenol) from Actelion. In

addition, in 2008 Teva launched a generic version of Flolan. These therapies are

considered the most potent, and are used in the most severe patients (WHO FC-III and

IV). There are currently two inhaled options, Actelion’s Ventavis (iloprost), and United

Therapeutics’ Tyvaso (treprostinil), and these therapies are typically positioned for use

in patients who require treatment benefit beyond oral therapies, but whose condition

is not considered severe enough to warrant infused prostanoids.

Pathways And Molecular Targets Associated With PAH

There are three major biochemical pathways that have been shown to be associated

with PAH: the endothelin pathway, nitric oxide pathway and prostacyclin pathway.

These pathways play a critical role in the regulation of vascular tone, and their

dysregulation results in vasoconstriction and pulmonary smooth muscle cell

proliferation.

Endothelin (ET-1) is an endogenous peptide formed by proteolytic processing of

preproendothelin-1. ET-1 signaling through the endothelin receptors ETA and ETB,

present in the pulmonary vascular smooth muscle cells, maintains vascular tone. In

PAH patients, ET-1 levels are elevated in the blood stream and the ability to clear ET-1

from the systemic circulation is reduced. Elevated signaling of the endothelin pathway

in smooth muscle cells, from increased levels of ET-1 and endothelin receptors,

produces pronounced vasoconstriction and smooth muscle proliferation effects.

Endothelin receptor antagonists target ETA and/or ETB receptors to attenuate ET-1

signaling in the smooth muscle cells. There are currently three approved endothelin

receptor antagonist drugs: bosentan (Tracleer from Actelion), ambrisentan (Letairis in

US from Gilead and Volibris in ex-US from GSK), and macitentan (Opsumit from

Actelion). Tracleer and Opsumit target both the ETA and ETB receptor whereas

Letairis/Volibris target only the ETA receptor. Drugs targeting the endothelin pathway

(Tracleer, Letairis/Volibris, and Opsumit) had worldwide sales of ~$2.9B in 2016. The

cumulative sales from these drugs are expected to marginally decline over the next

four years. Tracleer and Letairis/Volibris are expected to see heavy generic erosion

during this time period, whereas Opsumit, launched in 2013 (and not anticipated to be

subject to generic competition during this time period) is expected to grow strongly.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a vasodilator and plays a major role in smooth muscle cell

signaling. NO is normally produced continuously by the endothelial cells from the

conversion of L-arginine to L-citrulline aided by the enzyme NO synthase. NO diffuses

into the vascular smooth muscle cells and binds to Guanylate Cyclase to stimulate the

synthesis of cGMP, a second messenger that inhibits cell proliferation and produces

muscle relaxation. In PAH patients there is decreased bioavailability of NO, resulting in

reduced cGMP in smooth muscle cells. In addition, cGMP levels are also affected by

the phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) enzyme, which inactivates cGMP in smooth muscle

cells. There are two class of approved drugs that target the NO pathway in PAH

patients – soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators (GCS) and PDE-5 inhibitors. GCS

directly bind to guanylate cyclase and mediates the synthesis of cGMP. Riociguat

(Adempas from Bayer) is the only drug approved in this category. PDE-5 inhibitors

preserve cGMP levels by blocking the inactivation of cGMP by the PDE-5 enzyme.

Tadalafil (Adcirca from United Therapeutics) and sildenafil (Revatio) are the two major

PDE-5 inhibitors approved for PAH. Drugs targeting the nitric oxide pathway (Adcirca,

Revatio, and Adempas) reported worldwide sales of ≈$920MM in 2016. Cumulative

sales from these drugs are expected to marginally increase for the next four years.

Revatio sales have eroded due to generic entry and Adcirca is also expected to see

competition from generic entry at the end of 2017. Adempas, launched in 2013, is

expected to grow strongly during this time period.

Mechanism Of PAH Drugs

Source: Cowen and Company

Prostacyclin is the major arachidonic acid metabolite of vascular endothelial and

smooth muscle cells. Prostacyclin binds to the prostaglandin IP receptor on the

smooth muscle cells to promote vasodilation and inhibit smooth muscle proliferation

through the activation of cAMP. Prostacyclin levels are reduced in PAH patients

thereby leading to reduced dilatory and anti-proliferative effects. Prostacyclin

analogues and IP receptor agonists have been approved to target the prostacyclin

pathway in PAH patients. Epoprostenol (Flolan from GSK and Veletri from Actelion),

iloprost (Ventavis from Actelion) and treprostinil (Remodulin, Tyvaso and Orenitram

from United Therapeutics) are prostacyclin analogues approved to treat PAH.

Selexipag (Uptravi from Actelion) is the only approved prostaglandin IP receptor

agonist in the market. Drugs targeting the prostacyclin pathway (Remodulin, Tyvaso,

Uptravi, Orenitram, Flolan, Veletri and Ventavis) reported a worldwide sales of ≈ $1.6B

in 2016. Cumulative sales from these drugs are expected to grow sharply for the next

four years, primarily due to the growth expected in oral prostacyclin agent (Uptravi

and Orenitram).

Worldwide Sales (Reported And Consensus) From PAH Drugs Targeting Major Pathways

Source: Cowen and Company

In 2016, drugs targeting the prostacyclin, endothelin and nitric oxide pathways

contributed 30%, 53%, and 17% to the worldwide PAH sales, respectively. In 2020,

prostacyclin drugs are expected to contribute a majority share of 54%, whereas

endothelin drugs are predicted to decline to a 35% market share. Nitric oxide pathway

drugs market share are also expected to decline to 11% by 2021.

Treatment Algorithm For PAH Patients

Right-sided heart catheterization (RHC) is generally used to establish the

hemodynamic criteria to arrive at a diagnosis for PAH. If PAH is confirmed at an expert

center, then an acute vasoreactivity test is conducted to identify a small number of

PAH patients (< 15%) that are vasoreactive and can be successfully treated with high-

dose calcium channel blockers like nifedipine, diltiazem and amlodipine. All of these

drugs are available as generics. A majority of diagnosed PAH patients, however, are

non-vasoreactive and thus their treatment sequence is determined by their WHO

functional classification.

Low-risk WHO FC II and intermediate-risk WHO FC III patients start treatment with

either a single agent or a combination of agents. ERA, PDE-5i, GCS, IP agonists drugs

are used in the monotherapy setting, and ERA+PDE-5i is commonly used in the

combination setting. For WHO FC III patients, due to their higher risk profile, can also

start with a prostacyclin as a monotherapy. A prostacyclin is then added to the ERA or

ERA+PDE-5i in the combination setting. High risk WHO FC IV patients can be initiated

with a prostacyclin or prostacyclin in combination with ERA or ERA+PDE-5i. Given

that PAH is a chronically progressive disease, initial treatment regimens tend to

produce less adequate clinical responses over time. In such scenarios, double or triple

drug combinations therapies have become increasingly employed.

Treatment Algorithm For PAH Patients

Source: Cowen and Company, 2015 ESC/ERS Guidelines

Physicians Start Patients On Monotherapy or Combination, And Add More As The

Disease Progresses

The latest treatment guidelines from the European Society of Cardiology and the

European Respiratory Society, presented in 2015, provides a hierarchy of

recommendations for the use of approved drugs in patients with PH based on the

level of available evidence, general consensus, efficacy and safety. Drugs are

classified as class I (recommended), class IIa (should be considered), class IIb (may be

considered), and class III (not recommended) for WHO functional class II, III and IV.

The table below provides the hierarchy for drugs for use as monotherapy, initial

combination and sequential combination.

Monotherapy: All three approved drugs (ambrisentan, bosentan, and macitentan) in

the ERA class and the GCS class drug riociguat are recommended for use as

monotherapy in WHO-FC II and III patients. In the PDE-5i drug class, sildenafil and

tadalafil are recommended over vardenafil. Selexipag is the only drug targeting the

prostacyclin pathway recommended for WHO-FC II patients. Prostacyclins are

generally recommended as monotherapy for WHO-FC III patients. Epoprostenol i.v. is

the only prostacyclin recommended as monotherapy in WHO-FC IV patients.

Therapeutic Categories Outlook Respiratory

Combination: For initial combinations in WHO-FC II and III patients, ambrisentan +

Tadalafil is the recommended ERA + PDE-5i combination. For sequential

combinations in WHO-FC II and III patients, ERA (macitentan) added to PDE-5i

(sildenafil), GCS (riociguat) added to ERA (bosentan) and Prostacyclin (selexipag)

added to ERA and/or PDE-5i are recommended. In addition, for WHO-FC III patients,

PDE-5i (selexipag) added to Prostacyclin (epoprostenol i.v.) is also recommended. For

WHO-FC IV patients, initial and sequential combinations are restricted to a lower level

of recommendation (class II). GCS class drug riociguat added to PDE-5i is the only

sequential combination that is not recommended (class III) for PAH patients.

Physicians’ choice of an initial agent depends largely on the severity of a patient’s

disease. Our consultants treat the majority of Class II or III patients initially with either

a PDE5 inhibitor (Revatio or Adcirca) or an endothelin receptor antagonist (Opsumit,

Tracleer or Letairis). Our consultants note that there is no scientific data that makes

any one of the oral therapies an overwhelming favorite for treatment naïve patients.

Some use an endothelin receptor antagonist (either Letairis or Opsumit) first, while

others use a PDE5 inhibitor, most specifically Adcirca.

Physicians traditionally did not consider that there was sufficient data to support the

use of combination therapy in treatment naïve patients. However, in 2015 Gilead/GSK

reported that the AMBITION trial of first-line Letairis + Adcirca, compared to either

agent as a monotherapy, demonstrated a significant reduction in the risk of clinical

failure. This was not an expected result and the findings from the AMBITION study are

considered paradigm changing, and has prompted the standard of care to include the

use of combinations earlier in the course of treatment in the first-line setting. Data

from AMBITION was added to the Letairis label in October 2015.

If a patient has not improved within 6-8 weeks, or if a patient progresses through their

first-line therapy, a second agent is typically added. For patients on a PDE-5 inhibitor,

an endothelin receptor antagonist (ERA) such as Actelion’s Opsumit, Actelion’s

Tracleer or Gilead’s Letairis, is then added. For those patients already on an ERA, then

UTHR’s Adcirca is typically added.

Within the PDE-5 class Adcirca is the physicians’ first choice therapy as it is dosed

once per day, which is more convenient than Revatio, which is dosed three times per

day. Physicians also note that the labeled dose of Adcirca is considered more effective

than the labeled dose of Revatio, which is lower than the optimal dose in Revatio’s

clinical trials. Although Revatio generics are available, thus far physicians do not

report being forced by payors to use them ahead of Adcirca.

Our consultants suggest each ERA has certain benefits and drawbacks. Which agent

they choose for any particular patient depends on the etiology of the patient’s PAH,

and on the data that has been generated for each agent in the specific patient

population. Physicians generally prefer either Letairis or Opsumit over Tracleer, as the

former are dosed once per day (while Tracleer is dosed twice per day), and Tracleer is

associated with a higher rate of liver toxicity (~10% of Tracleer patients develop

elevated liver enzyme levels, while few patients on either Opsumit or Letairis do).

Patients whose disease deteriorates further are prescribed an oral, inhaled or infused

(for very severe disease) prostacyclin. For their infused option, our consultants prefer

subcutaneous Remodulin, and will switch a patient to intravenous Remodulin if

injection site pain becomes a problem. They typically do not use much epoprostenol.

PAH Clinical Trials

Drugs for PAH are typically approved based on randomized clinical trials comparing

the drug to placebo. Head-to-head trials are seen in the combination setting and are

generally not required to gain approval as a single agent. Single agent trials have been

historically performed with no background therapy or on top of an ERA and/or a PDE-

5i. For the primary endpoint, 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) is the historically

preferred endpoint for regulatory approval. However, this is changing with the advent

of drugs like Uptravi, which was approved based on what is increasingly viewed as a

more clinically relevant TTCW (time to clinical worsening) endpoint.

6MWD: The 6-minute walk distance test, a submaximal exercise test, has been the

preferred primary endpoint used in clinical trials to demonstrate efficacy. The test is

generally reproducible, safe, not complicated to perform, and familiar to patients.

Results of the 6MWD test, however, have been shown to be influenced by several

factors: age, sex, body habitus, learning curve, coaching and motivation, hence

making it a less than ideal clinical endpoint. Superiority in 6MWD over placebo

results in a label indicating that the drug has been shown to improve exercise

capability in PAH patients.

TTCW: A new primary endpoint is emerging in the form of an event driven endpoint

denoted by Time To Clinical Worsening. This composite endpoint takes into account

key morbidity outcomes as well as mortality. TTCW is now favored over 6WMD as it is

less subjective and considered a more clinically relevant measure of therapeutic

efficacy. Three recent trials (SERAPHIN, AMBITION, and GRIPHON) have successfully

used this endpoint and results have had a major influence on treatment selection in

PAH.

Actelion’s Tracleer (bosentan) is an oral endothelin-1 antagonist. Endothelin-1 is a

potent vasoconstrictive peptide that also plays a role in vascular remodeling. Tracleer

binds to both the ETA and ETB endothelin receptors, resulting in vasodilation of the

pulmonary arterial system. Tracleer may also ameliorate vascular remodeling. With a

half-life of roughly five hours, Tracleer is administered twice per day.

Orenitram’s Clinical Program Yielded Mixed Results

Dosing Issues Tripped Up FREEDOM-C In 2008

The first Phase III trial produced top-line data in November 2008. FREEDOM-C was a

300-patient combination study with other oral agents including Revatio and/or

Tracleer in PAH patients failing oral regimens. In its primary endpoint of 6MWD at

week 16, Orenitram produced a median change of 11m, p=0.072, just missing

statistical significance.

As initially designed, patients in FREEDOM-C were started on 1mg Orenitram BID, and

patients were to be up-titrated by 1mg BID every week. Not only was 1mg the starting

dose, and expected dose increment, but the drug was available only in a 1mg pill size,

meaning lower doses or smaller dosing increments were not possible. This dosing

paradigm was problematic. Prostacyclins like treprostinil have relatively harsh side

effects such as nausea, vomiting, and flushing that are dose-related. To minimize the

side effects, patients are typically started at low doses, and as the patients acclimate,

the dose is increased to get the patient into the therapeutic range gradually, over

weeks. Unfortunately, Orenitram was somewhat more bioavailable than United

Therapeutics had originally thought, meaning that patients were being started on and

up-dosed by too large of a dose. Many patients experienced harsh prostacyclin-like

side effects. United Therapeutics realized its mistake, and worked to introduce smaller

Orenitram pill sizes that would permit both a lower starting dose and smaller dose

increments. A 0.5mg pill was introduced in July 2007 when the trial had enrolled about
