Amicus Therapeutics Announces the Presentation of New 4-Year Data for Pombiliti (Cipaglucosidase alfa-atga) + Opfolda®? (miglustat) Amicus Therapeutics announced the presentation of new 4-year muscle function, muscle strength and biomarker endpoints from the PROPEL open-label extension (OLE) study of cipaglucosidase alfa-atga + miglustat (cipa+mig) in adults with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) at the International Congress of Inborn Errors of Metabolism (ICIEM) in Kyoto, Japan. The new analysis, "208-week efficacy and safety of cipaglucOSidase alfa plus miglustat in patients with late-onset Pompe Disease treated from PROPEL baseline: muscle function and biomarkers," was conducted on the 82 patients (62 ERT-experienced and 20 ERT-naive) who were randomized to cipa+mig in PROPEL and who enrolled in the open label extension (OLE). Pombiliti + Opfolda is indicated in the U.S. for the treatment of adult patients with LOPD weighing 40 kg and who are not improving on their current ERT. The study enrolled 123 adult LOPD patients who still had the ability to walk and to breathe without mechanical ventilation. Patients enrolled in PROPEL were randomized 2:1 so that for every two patients randomized to be treated with cipaglucosIDase alfa-atga+ miglustat, one was randomized to be treated with the comparator. Of the patients enrolled in PROPEL, 77% were being treated with alglucosidase alfa (n=95) for at least 2 years at study entry and 23% had never been treated with any ERT (n=28). 117 of the 123 patients (>95%) completed the PROPEL study. Efficacy endpoints of the study included primary endpoint of change from baseline to week 52 in 6MWD for comparison of superiority and key secondary endpoint of change from baseline toweek 52 in 6MWD in the overall population. After 52 weeks, ERT-experienced patients treated with cipaglUCosidase alfa- atga + miglustat (n=61) walk an estimated 17 meters (95% CI, 0.2, 33) farther than the comparator group (n=29). After 52 weeks, ERT -experienced patients treated with cIPaglucosidase Alfa-atga + mig Purpose (n=55) showed an estimated treatment difference of 3.5% (95% CI, 1.0, 6.0) in FVC compared with the comparator group (n<29). The Phase 3 open-label extension (Ole) study (ATB200-07) is a multicenter, international study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of cipaglucasidase alfa-atgas + miglustat in adult subjects with LOPD who completed the Phase 3 PROPEL Study (ATB200-03). Of the 118 patients treated in the OLE, 81 continued cipa+mig treatment from PROPEL (cipa+mIG group; 20 ERT-naive); 20 ERT-naive), and 37 switched from alg+pbo to cip a+mig (switch group; 29 ERT-experienced; 8 ERT-naive). Efficacy endpoints of The study included primary endpoint of change of change from PROPEL baseline to approximately 4 years in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD), forced vital capacity (FVC), creatine kinase (CK) and hexosetetrasaccharide (Hex4) levels, patient-reported outcomes and safety.

Amicus Therapeutics Announces FDA Approval and Launch of New Treatment for Pompe Disease Amicus Therapeutics announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Pombiliti™ (cipaglucosidase alfa-atga) + Opfolda™ (miglustat) 65mg capsules. This two-component therapy is indicated for adults living with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) weighing =40 kg and who are not improving on their current enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). Late-onset Pompe disease is a rare, debilitating, and life-threatening lysosomal disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Reduced levels of GAA lead to the accumulation of the substrate glycogen in the lysosomes of muscle cells and glycogen buildup causes muscle damage. Disease severity ranges across a spectrum, with predominant manifestations such as skeletal muscle weakness and progressive respiratory involvement. Pombiliti + Opfolda is a unique two-component therapy. Pombiliti is a recombinant human GAA enzyme (rhGAA) naturally expressed with high levels of bis-M6P (Mannose 6-Phosphate), designed for increased uptake into muscle cells. Once in the cell, Pombiliti can be properly processed into its most active and mature form to break down glycogen. Opfolda is an enzyme stabilizer designed to stabilize the enzyme in the blood. The FDA approval was based on clinical data observed from the Phase 3 pivotal study (PROPEL), the only trial in LOPD to study ERT-experienced participants in a controlled setting. Amicus Therapeutics will launch Pombiliti + Opfolda immediately in the U.S. The FDA previously granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Pombiliti + Opfolda.

Amicus Therapeutics Announces Approval and Launch of New Pompe Disease Therapy in the United Kingdom Amicus Therapeutics announced that the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) of the United Kingdom (U.K.) has granted marketing authorizations for Pombiliti® (cipaglucosidase alfa) + Opfolda® (miglustat) for adults living with late-onset Pompe disease (acid a-glucosidase [GAA] deficiency). The indication for Pombiliti is a long-term enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) used in combination with miglustat for adults with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD). The indication for Opfolda is an enzyme stabilizer of cipaglucosidase alfa long-term enzyme replacement therapy for adults with LOPD. In addition, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) issued final guidance recommending reimbursement of Pombiliti + Opfolda for use within the National Health Service (NHS) in England and Wales. As stated in the guidance, NICE concluded that the cost-effectiveness estimates for Pombiliti + Opfolda showed a positive net health benefit and recommended Pombiliti + Opfolda for adults with LOPD as first line and later lines of therapy. Prior to Great Britain (GB) approval, Pombiliti + Opfolda was granted an Innovation Passport under the Innovative Licensing and Access Pathway (ILAP), a Priority Innovative Medicines designation, as well as a positive scientific opinion under the Early Access to Medicines Scheme (EAMS). This accelerated the time to market and enabled healthcare professionals to prescribe the treatment prior to marketing authorization based on clinical factors for patients with a clear unmet need. Late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) is a rare, debilitating, and life-threatening lysosomal disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Reduced levels of GAA lead to the accumulation of the substrate glycogen in the lysosomes of muscles and other tissues. Disease severity ranges on a spectrum, but predominant manifestations are skeletal muscle weakness and progressive respiratory involvement. The MHRA and NICE decisions were based on clinical data from the Phase 3 pivotal study (PROPEL), the only trial in LOPD to study both ERT-naïve and ERT-experienced participants in a controlled setting. Pombiliti + Opfolda has demonstrated fulfilment of the Great Britain orphan designation criteria and will be added to the Orphan Register held by the MHRA. Both will benefit from 10 years of market exclusivity in respect of similar medicinal products in the approved orphan indication. Pombiliti + Opfolda, is a two-component therapy that consists of cipaglucosidase alfa, a bis-M6P-enriched rhGAA that facilitates high-affinity uptake through the M6P receptor while retaining its capacity for processing into the most active form of the enzyme, and the oral enzyme stabilizer, miglustat, that’s designed to reduce loss of enzyme activity in the blood. In clinical studies, Pombiliti + Opfolda was associated with demonstrated improvements in both musculoskeletal and respiratory measures. New Risk • Aug 10
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 2.4% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company. Reported Earnings • Aug 09

Amicus Therapeutics Inc. Announces Approval and Launch of New Pompe Disease Therapy in the European Union Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. announced that the European Commission (EC) has granted approval for Opfolda(R) (miglustat) 65mg capsules, an enzyme stabilizer of cipaglucosidase alfa, a long-term enzyme replacement therapy for adults with late-onset Pompe disease. Pombiliti (cipaglucosidases alfa), is a bis-M6P-enriched rhGAA enzyme, designed for increased uptake into muscle cells. Once in the cell, Pombiliti can be processed into its most active and mature form to break down glycogen. Opfolda (miglustat) is an enzyme stabilizer designed to stabilize the enzyme in the blood. The EC approval was based on clinical data from the Phase 3 pivotal study (PROPEL), the only trial in LOPD to study the real-world population of both ERT-nave and ERT-experienced participants in a controlled setting. In the U.K., the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) regulatory approval is expected in the third quarter of 2023. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration's review is ongoing, and the Company expects approval in the third quarter of 20 23. The FDA previously granted Breakthrough Therapy designation for Pombiliti + Opfolda. Pombiliti + Op folda, is a two-component therapy that consists of cipaglucOSidase alfa, a bis-M6P -enriched rhGAA that facilitates high-affinity uptake through the M6P receptor while retaining its capacity for processing into the most active form of the enzyme, and the oral enzyme stabilizer, miglustat, that's designed to reduce loss of enzyme activity in the blood. In clinical studies, Pombiliti + Op foldinga was associated with demonstrated improvements in both muscleoskeletal and respiratory measures. Refer to SmPC for full list. Annuncio • May 11

Amicus Therapeutics Receives Positive CHMP Opinion for Pombiliti™ (cipaglucosidase alfa) for Late-Onset Pompe Disease Amicus Therapeutics announced that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion recommending marketing authorization of cipaglucosidase alfa, a long-term enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) used in combination with miglustat for adults with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD). A decision from the European Commission (EC) on cipaglucosidase alfa, the enzyme replacement therapy component of AT-GAA, is expected in the first quarter of 2023. Cipaglucosidase alfa will be commercialized under the brand name POMBILITI™. The Company expects a CHMP opinion of miglustat, the enzyme stabilizer component of AT-GAA, in the second quarter of 2023. Late-onset Pompe disease is a rare, debilitating, and life-threatening lysosomal disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). Reduced or absent levels of GAA lead to the accumulation of the substrate glycogen in the lysosomes of muscles and other tissues. Disease severity ranges on a spectrum, but predominant manifestations are skeletal muscle weakness and progressive respiratory involvement. AT-GAA is designed as a two-component therapy consisting of cipaglucosidase alfa, a long-term enzyme replacement therapy, administered in combination with miglustat, an oral enzyme stabilizer, for the treatment of adults with late-onset Pompe disease. Cipaglucosidase alfa is a recombinant human acid alpha-glucosidase enzyme (rhGAA) enriched with bis-mannose-6-phosphate designed to facilitate high-affinity uptake with retained capacity for processing into the most active form of the enzyme to break down glycogen. The CHMP based its positive opinion on clinical data from the Phase 3 pivotal study (PROPEL), the only randomized, controlled trial in LOPD to include patients in the high unmet need ERT-experienced population, in addition to ERT-naïve patients. As anticipated and consistent with a recent opinion of another ERT in this disease space, the CHMP also determined cipaglucosidase alfa does not qualify as a New Active Substance (NAS).

Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. Announces U.S. FDA Defers Action on Filing for AT-GAA in Late-onset Pompe Disease Amicus Therapeutics announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has deferred action on the Biologics License Application (BLA) for cipaglucosidase alfa, the biologic component of AT-GAA. Due to restrictions on travel related to COVID-19, the FDA was unable to conduct the required inspection of the WuXi Biologics manufacturing site in China during the review cycle. As a result, the FDA is deferring action on the application until the manufacturing site inspection is complete. The Company continues to expect the FDA to approve the two components of AT-GAA, including the BLA and New Drug Application (NDA) for miglustat, together. The sole reason cited in the FDA-issued letter for the deferred action was the Agency’s inability to complete the manufacturing facility inspection. While both applications remain under review, the FDA has not provided anticipated action date(s) as they continue to monitor the public health situation and travel restrictions in China. However, the Company is now actively engaged with the FDA on developing plans and logistics for a pre-approval inspection plan. Under FDA guidance relating to pre-approval inspections during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Agency may defer action on a pending application when a facility inspection is necessary but cannot be completed by the PDUFA goal date due to travel restrictions, provided that no deficiencies have been identified and the application otherwise satisfies the requirements for approval.

Amicus Therapeutics Receives Notification of PDUFA Date Extensions for AT-GAA Amicus Therapeutics announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has extended the review period by 90 days for the Biologics License Application (BLA) for cipaglucosidase alfa and the New Drug Application (NDA) for miglustat, the two components of AT-GAA. The revised PDUFA action dates for miglustat and cipaglucosidase alfa are August 29, 2022 and October 29, 2022, respectively. The Company continues to expect the FDA to approve the applications together. The FDA extended the PDUFA dates to allow additional time to review information submitted by the Company as part of its ongoing reviews. The extension of the review timeline was not related to requests for any additional clinical data. The company also expects that the additional time will allow for the completion of the pre-license approval inspections necessary at the WuXi Biologics manufacturing site in China. Previously, the FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to AT-GAA for the treatment of late-onset Pompe disease based on clinical efficacy results from the Phase 1/2 clinical study. In the European Union, the Marketing Authorization Applications were validated in the fourth quarter of 2021 and the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) opinion is expected in late 2022. AT-GAA is an investigational two-component therapy that consists of cipaglucosidase alfa (ATB200), a unique recombinant human acid alpha-glucosidase (rhGAA) enzyme with optimized carbohydrate structures, particularly bis-phosphorylated mannose-6 phosphate (bis-M6P) glycans, to enhance uptake into cells, administered in conjunction with miglustat (AT2221), a stabilizer of cipaglucosidase alfa. In preclinical studies, AT-GAA was associated with increased levels of the mature lysosomal form of GAA and reduced glycogen levels in muscle, alleviation of the autophagic defect and improvements in muscle strength. In addition, Amicus is enrolling an open-label, uncontrolled, multicenter study to evaluate the PK, safety, efficacy, and PD of AT-GAA in pediatric patients aged 0 to 18 years with LOPD (ATB200-04).

Amicus Therapeutics Announces United Kingdom’s MHRA Grants Early Access to AT-GAA Amicus Therapeutics announced that the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has granted a positive scientific opinion through the Early Access to Medicines Scheme (EAMS) to AT-GAA, the Company’s investigational two-component therapy for the treatment of Pompe disease. This positive opinion means that eligible adults living with late-onset Pompe disease (LOPD) who have received alglucosidase alfa for at least 2 years can now switch and have access to AT-GAA prior to marketing authorization in the UK. The EAMS mechanism is intended to provide individuals in the UK who live with a life threatening or seriously debilitating condition early access to innovative and unlicensed medicines for which there is not yet marketing authorization and where there is a clear unmet medical need. The MHRA’s decision is based on the evaluation of the effects of AT-GAA in LOPD patients and its safety profile, including data from both the Phase 1/2 and Phase 3 PROPEL study. Results from the global Phase 3 PROPEL clinical study of AT-GAA were presented at the 17th Annual WORLDSymposium™ 2021, held virtually February 8-12, 2021. Marketing Authorization Applications for AT-GAA are expected to be submitted with the UK and EU, respectively, in the second half of 2021. For the full approval in the UK, Amicus will seek inclusion of the treatment population to all ERT-switch patients regardless of length of time on prior ERT, as well as the treatment naïve population. Future studies will also investigate the treatment of patients with Infantile Onset Pompe Disease. Previously, the MHRA has granted the PIM (Priority Innovative Medicines) designation to AT-GAA. Also, the U.S. FDA granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation to AT-GAA for the treatment of LOPD based on clinical efficacy results from the Phase 1/2 clinical study.
