INTERVIEW #SpeakPharma

“Euroapi is a growth story based on fast-growing CDMO activity and greater focus on existing portfolio”

More than two years ago, Sanofi had announced the creation of a standalone company that will combine its commercial and development activities in active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) with six of its European production sites in France, Italy, Germany, UK and Hungary. Christened Euroapi and listed on the Euronext Paris stock exchange since May 6, the company seeks to address some of the increasing shortages of medicines in recent times. Euroapi develops, produces and markets APIs and ensures additional capacities for European and non-European countries. This way, the company seeks to help balance the pharmaceutical industry's heavy reliance on APIs sourced from China and India. This week, SpeakPharma interviews Karl Rotthier, Euroapi's Chief Executive Officer, to understand the compelling reasons behind the creation of this company, its strategy and growth plans. Euroapi is a new actor in the API world. How would you describe the company? Euroapi is the leading small molecules API company and the second largest API producer in the world. We already have around 200 APIs in our portfolio that are used in everything — from anti-inflammatory drugs to treatments for Parkinson's disease — and two activities: a wide portfolio of APIs (API Solutions) and custom innovative projects for clients (CDMO). We have six development and manufacturing sites situated in five countries – France, Germany, UK, Italy, and Hungary. Headquartered in Paris (France), Euroapi has a large client base spread over 80 countries worldwide. We have around 3,350 skilled employees on our rolls, including 330 scientists. What were the reasons that led to the creation of the company? There were four compelling reasons behind the creation of Euroapi. First, the sale of APIs in a business to business environment is a much different business model as opposed to the standard large pharma discovery and direct to customer sales model. Since we wanted to focus on APIs, it was logical to create a different company specifically designed for this commercial model. The second reason was to concentrate on growth, both in API Solutions and in CDMO services, as this gives access to attract the large pharma and biotechnology companies previously not accessible because they were competing with Sanofi. Third, we wanted to focus on further developing our industry leading technology toolbox. Fourth, we wanted to expand our commitment to provide supply chain security; Euroapi is backward integrated in more than 85% of its products and does not have a long tail supply chain from China or India. Where do you stand in terms of technologies? We have a broad range of technologies and each of our production sites specializes in different ones. For instance, the Haverhill (UK) facility specializes in flow chemistry and spray drying. The two facilities in France have their own technological focus — Elbeuf specializes in fermentation and vitamin B12, while Vertolaye specializes in corticosteroids and solid chemistry. Our site in Germany located in Frankfurt focuses mainly on oligonucleotides and peptides. In Hungary, our facility in Budapest specializes in prostaglandins while our facility in Brindisi (Italy) is dedicated to anti-infectives. Can you talk about the size of the market you operate in, and the growth drivers? We are operating in a large, over Euro 70 billion (US$ 79billion) market, which has growth rate of approximately six to seven percent year over year (excluding COVID years where it was approximately 2%). The growth is supported by consistent and sustainable outsourcing trends, favorable demographics due to an aging population, and an increased access to medicine globally. The number of small molecule drug approvals continues to rise, and there is a long pipeline of small molecule drugs in various stages of clinical trials. The production capacities we have in peptides and oligonucleotides also give us an edge in the biologics space. Our CDMO business seeks to partner with these pre-clinical and clinical phase companies and this new growth lever is now unlocked for us going forward. While you have mentioned several growth drivers, we also know that it’s not easy to enter the API business. What are the barriers to entry? We are in a heavy capital and knowledge investment industry. For instance, highly specialized technological expertise and technical know-how is required to get into this field. Along with expertise, you also require important, up-front investment in infrastructure to establish scale in order to win large contracts. In addition to the high infrastructure costs, there is also a long regulatory timeline to bring the validated and approved plants on line. And last, but not the least, the quality of APIs and reliability of supply is critical. Together, these factors make market entry by new or established entrants quite difficult. Can you tell us the key points of your strategy? We have a compelling strategy focused on clear business and operational levers, combining topline growth, performance improvement initiatives and flexibility. For topline growth, we are increasing our focus on sales to clients other than Sanofi, for our API Solutions business. We are also committing more R&D resources and capacity to innovation and CDMO clients. Moreover, we are expanding our technological platforms and our presence in highly differentiating complex APIs, including a special focus on peptides and oligonucleotides and Highly Potent APIs. To bring about cash efficiencies, we are focusing on our industrial performance, on procurement processes, inventory management and on optimizing our capital expenditures. The API market is highly fragmented, and we are always evaluating actionable opportunities; however, for the near term, our primary focus is on flawless execution of our organic strategy. To sum up, I would say that our strategy is a growth story based on an acceleration of topline growth through fast-growing CDMO activity and greater focus on existing API Solutions portfolio with other clients. Could Euroapi play a role in the repatriation of essential activities for the healthcare sector? Absolutely. Euroapi is well positioned to play a role in the repatriation of essential services for the healthcare sector due to its strengths. We have a critical APIs and intermediate molecules portfolio. Moreover, we boast of a wide range of technologies and know-how, along with large production capacities and industrial footprint across Europe. In addition, we have the determination to innovate in our industrial processes in order to ensure sustainable production, which is competitive and comes with reduced environmental impact.

Overview of small molecule drug development & contract manufacturing & more on EUROAPI's CDMO services for complex & small molecules on PharmaCompass.

Overview of small molecule drug development & contract manufacturing & more on EUROAPI's CDMO services for complex & small molecules on PharmaCompass. Q1. What are small molecule APIs? Small-molecule APIs are defined as compounds with low molecular weight that are capable of modulating biochemical processes to diagnose, treat or prevent diseases. Small molecules are composed of two or more atoms with a molecular weight of less than 900 Dalton. Active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) fall into two main categories - small molecule API and large molecule API. The quality of the active pharmaceutical ingredients depends on the kind of process adopted for manufacture, quality of the starting raw materials, process parameters, solvents used for the extraction, etc. Manufacturing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) is far more complex than manufacturing drug products. However, the quality system that is followed in API manufacturing units is less stringent compared to that of drug product manufacturing. Specialized expertise is needed to achieve success for the production of small molecule APIs, from small-scale clinical development to cGMP commercial manufacturing. The small-molecule API synthesis is a complicated and multi-step process which involves operations with a range of raw materials having different physical and chemical properties. While biologic products are gradually making their presence felt, small molecule API continues to be the cornerstone of pharmaceutical drug development. Rise in demand for effective treatment of chronic diseases has led to an increase in the demand for small molecule APIs. Small-molecule pharmaceuticals accounted for a large number of new drug applications (NDA) and new molecular entities. Further, they represent two-thirds of the drug development pipeline. While the number of large-molecule therapeutics is increasing, small-molecule drugs remain an important and highly effective component of the pharmaceutical portfolio. Large molecules are in much demand for treating cancer and other autoimmune disorders. However, many of the most important drugs introduced in recent years, including kinase inhibitors and anti-retroviral products, are small molecules. There are a lot of challenges associated with the development and manufacturing of small molecule APIs. The manufacturing of small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can be outsourced to various CDMOs (contract development & manufacturing organizations) and contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs). They can offer various services for small molecule synthesis and manufacturing, drug substance development with pharmaceutical and biotechnology applications for complex, niche and small molecule programs from the preclinical phase to phase 3 clinical development and commercial manufacturing. Q2. What are the advantages of small molecule APIs and what are the steps involved in the development and manufacturing of small molecule APIs? Small molecule drugs have been the mainstay of the pharmaceutical industry for around a century. Rapid advancement of biopharmaceutical research has opened up the possibility for new and innovative approaches to developing small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients. Small-molecule therapeutics have participated fully in the rapid expansion of drug development activity over the past few years. They have some considerable advantages over large molecules which are noted below: Defined as any organic compound with low molecular weight, small molecule drugs have some distinct advantages as therapeutics as they can be administered orally, which offer better compliance and a lower cost of administration than injectables. Small molecules can pass through cell membranes to reach intracellular targets, and hence are beneficial for targeted drug delivery. Small molecule drugs can be engineered to deliver a strong therapeutic effect even with a small dose, often below 10 mgs and sometimes in micrograms. The smaller amount of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) translates into a lower cost for finished products in comparison to large-molecule therapeutics. Small molecule APIs can also be designed to engage biological targets through various modes of action and their distribution can further be tailored. There is a vast amount of formulation expertise and experience with small-molecule drugs, enabling the production of highly controlled formulations that can be delivered to specific sites and released over specific time periods. Small molecules require less cost for construction and maintenance as compared to large molecules. Small-molecule active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) production depends on synthetic chemistry aspects, raw material sourcing and process controls. Clinical trials involving small-molecule therapeutics are often simpler and less expensive than those involving large-molecule drugs. There are various contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) and contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) which offer customized API development and manufacturing services. They can provide integrated development and manufacturing services for small molecule drug substances and their intermediates for clinical supplies and commercial manufacturing, depending on the requirement of the customers. Regardless of the breadth of CDMO services offered, CDMOs and contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) today are seeing a rise in demand for API development and manufacturing services, including solid form selection and particle engineering. Steps involved in small molecule API development and manufacturing are noted below: Route scouting Process development and validation Clinical batch manufacturing Technology transfer and process development Scale-up of established processes Process validation Commercial small molecule API manufacturing Supply chain management Q3. How do CDMOs and CMOs help in the production of small molecule APIs? The demand for small molecule drugs remains high and the highly potent small molecule active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs) segment is growing quickly. However, there are various challenges involved in the development and manufacturing of small molecule APIs. Working with the right contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) partners can help address these challenges so that pharmaceutical companies can continue to benefit from small molecule APIs for clinical supplies and commercial manufacturing. In many cases, a contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) plays a critical role in facilitating successful drug development of innovator small molecule candidates. Along with small molecule synthesis and manufacturing, a CDMO can also offer drug substance development services. One-third of small molecule API facilities offer containment capabilities, while less than one-tenth offer controlled substance capabilities. Specialist small-molecule active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) capabilities such as containment capabilities and controlled substance capabilities are driving large contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) and contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) to acquire facilities for small molecule clinical development and commercial manufacturing. All the top small molecule API CMOs have increased the number of containment facilities for small molecule API manufacturing. A growing number of small and mid-sized pharmaceutical companies developing innovative small-molecule therapeutics are driving the demand for more contract chemical process development and scale-up capacity. These companies often lack in-house laboratory infrastructure and expertise for small molecule drug substance development services. A right CDMO partner can provide small molecule API development services along with process optimization, scale-up and cGMP manufacturing. They can smoothen the transition from laboratory scale small-molecule API synthesis to commercial manufacturing, streamline the process and reduce the complexity. The rise of oncology drugs is a significant growth driver too, as cancer treatments account for a majority of these new approvals. Small molecule HPAPIs offer great therapeutic benefits to patients at low doses, but they require specialized containment procedures. These features are strongly associated with larger contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs), which can afford to develop or acquire these specialist capabilities. High-potency APIs (HPAPIs) are toxic even in small doses. They pose a risk to human health or risk cross-contamination with other drugs in a regular manufacturing environment. Dedicated contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) are investing heavily in specialist capabilities to meet the growing demand and fulfill the needs for highly potent small molecule development and production. Q4. Which small molecule development and manufacturing services does EUROAPI offer? From over-the-counter (OTC) analgesics to life-saving treatments for cardiovascular (CVS) diseases, small molecule synthesis is critical to the development and effectiveness of a wide range of pharmaceutical therapies. EUROAPI's current synthesis portfolio has about 60 small molecule API references spanning a highly diverse range of therapeutic uses for both humans and animals. Small molecules synthesis and manufacturing EUROAPI is a global leader in small molecules APIs, and its innovation and R&D capabilities enable it to accelerate its contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) activities in complex molecule and small-molecule active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) segments. EUROAPI can leverage its illustrious history in API development and small molecule organic synthesis by merging the collective chemical know-how of Hoechst-Aventis, Roussel-Uclaf, Chinoin, Genzyme and Sanofi. One of the biggest API manufacturers in Europe, EUROAPI can offer a full CMC service for any drug substance to support clinical supplies, up to registration and commercial supply. A team of more than 250 scientists work at its six commercial facilities, which can provide 2,000 m³ cGMP for custom organic synthesis and another 6,000 m³ for microbial fermentation for small molecule manufacturing. It has excellent regulatory and quality track records with international health agencies to support registration and commercial production. Around 150 scientists support all aspects of clinical development at its small molecules process development center of excellence located in Ujpest, Budapest. This center is supported by an R&D team located in Frankfurt that focuses on process engineering and flow chemistry, as well as by process industrialization teams in Vertolaye and Frankfurt.

FDA approves four oligonucleotide therapies in 2023; Novartis, GSK, Novo bet big

In the intricate world of molecular biology, oligonucleotides stand out as versatile, powerful molecules. Oligonucleotides are essentially short, single strands of DNA or RNA that modulate gene expression. There are various oligonucleotide therapy (ONT) agents (such as antisense, deoxyribozymes, siRNA and CRISPR/Cas) that offer promising therapeutic tools.A variation of gene therapy, oligonucleotide gene therapies (OGTs) are manufactured using synthetic oligonucleotides. These therapies are designed to enter cells. ONTs act like tools that can fine-tune the behavior of certain genetic instructions, and are therefore often designed to treat rare and genetic diseases and cancers. Sometimes, they may be delivered into cells through lipid nanoparticles or adeno-associated viruses (AAV), halting the translation of a specific protein. Oligonucleotides have also revolutionized vaccine development through the creation of nucleic acid vaccines, such as mRNA vaccines.The first oligonucleotide drug, known as fomivirsen, was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) back in 1998. It was developed by Ionis Pharmaceuticals (then known as Isis Pharmaceuticals), and was approved to treat a rare eye disease. However, ONT approvals have picked up since 2016. Currently, there are 20 oligonucleotide drugs approved by the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and a majority of them treat orphan and rare diseases.In 2023, FDA approved four ONTs — AstraZeneca-Ionis’ Wainua (eplontersen), Novo Nordisk owned Dicerna Pharmaceuticals’ Rivfloza (nedosiran), Biogen-Ionis’ Qalsody (tofersen) and Iveric Bio’s Izervay (avacincaptad pegol).In 2021, the global ONT market size was estimated to be US$ 18.2 billion. It is expected to increase to US$ 51.4 billion by 2029, growing at a compounded annual rate (CAGR) of 13.85 percent. Similarly, the market for oligonucleotides synthesis (or the process of producing oligonucleotides) was estimated at US$ 7.7 billion globally in 2022 and is expected to grow 11.8 percent CAGR to reach US$ 16.4 billion by 2030. Some of the bigger players in oligonucleotides synthesis are Danaher Corporation, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Merck KGaA, Eurofins, Agilent, Bio-Synthesis, EUROAPI, Eurogentec, STA Pharma, and Bachem.View Our Interactive Dashboard on Oligonucleotide Therapies (Free Excel Available)ONTs address neuro disorders; four ONTs bring in US$ 1.24 bn for AlnylamONTs are widely applied to treat neurodegenerative diseases, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Multiple ONTs have been approved in Europe and the US for DMD, such as Exondys 51 (eteplirsen), Vyondys 53 (golodirsen), and Amondys 45 (casimersen) from Sarepta and NS Pharma’s Viltepso (viltolarsen). Last year, Ionis bagged two approvals in the space. FDA approved its Biogen-partnered therapy Qalsody (tofersen) to treat patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The agency also approved AstraZeneca and Ionis’ drug Wainua (eplontersen), rendering it as the first self-administered treatment for a rare nerve damage disease, known as hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR-PN). Analysts estimate global peak sales for Wainua to come in at US$ 750 million for ATTR-PN alone. The drug is also being tested for transthyretin-mediated amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), a rare heart muscle disorder.Alnylam Pharmaceuticals has also successfully brought four ONTs to market in recent years — Onpattro (patisiran) and Amvuttra (vutrisiran) for rare nerve diseases, and Givlaari (givosiran) and Oxlumo (lumasiran). Givlaari has been approved to treat acute hepatic porphyria (a liver enzyme deficiency) while Oxlumo treats primary hyperoxaluria (a disorder characterized by increased urinary oxalate excretion). The four ONTs brought in US$ 1.24 billion for Alnylam in 2023.View Our Interactive Dashboard on Oligonucleotide Therapies (Free Excel Available) Novartis buys rights to siRNA therapy, GSK bets big on ONT pipeline through dealsAfter Alnylam discovered inclisiran (Leqvio), Novartis acquired global rights to the therapy in a US$ 9.7 billion deal. Leqvio was the first FDA-approved small interfering RNA (siRNA) therapy for LDL-C (bad cholesterol) reduction. It brought in US$ 355 million for Novartis in 2023.GSK has increasingly been investing in its ONT pipeline. The British pharma has promised over US$ 5 billion in upfront and milestone payments in multiple deals. In February, GSK exercised its option to license Elsie Biotechnologies’ discovery platform to find and develop novel ONTs. GSK has also entered a discovery collaboration with Wave Life Sciences.Last July, Japanese drugmaker Astellas Pharma completed its approximately US$ 5.9 billion buyout of New Jersey-headquartered Iveric Bio. Iveric focuses on retinal diseases and the deal gives Astellas drug candidates to treat about 160 million people with eye ailments. Subsequently, in August, Iveric’s Izervay (avacincaptad pegol) was approved by the FDA as a new treatment for geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).After Novo Nordisk acquired RNAi technology company Dicerna Pharmaceuticals for US$ 3.3 billion in 2021, the latter’s once-monthly RNAi therapy Rivfloza (nedosiran) saw FDA approval last October. Rivfloza was okayed for children nine years and older to treat a rare genetic condition that affects the kidneys, known as primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1).View Our Interactive Dashboard on Oligonucleotide Therapies (Free Excel Available) Ionis tees up NDAs for rare disease treatments after two late-stage trial winsThe industry is looking for cures to a wide spectrum of diseases like cancer (such as melanoma, pancreatic, liver, glioblastoma, breast and ovarian cancer), cystic fibrosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, hepatitis B, asthma, Rett syndrome, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, and IgA nephropathy through its research on ONTs.In January, Ionis announced late-stage results wherein its RNA-targeted hereditary angioedema (HAE) candidate, donidalorsen, significantly reduced the rate of HAE attacks in patients treated every four weeks and patients treated every eight weeks. The California-based biotech is readying a new drug application (NDA) to submit to the FDA. HAE is a rare and life-threatening genetic disease that causes unpredictable and frequent severe swelling of the skin, gastrointestinal (GI) tract, upper respiratory system, face and throat. This year, Ionis’ olezarsen was granted fast track designation by the FDA for the rare genetic disease familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS). Last September, olezarsen had met its primary endpoint of reducing abnormally high levels of triglycerides in a late-stage trial in patients with the metabolic disorder. Currently, there are no FDA-approved treatments for this condition. If okayed, olezarsen is likely to bring in US $849 million in sales for Ionis by 2032.In March, FDA’s Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee (ODAC) voted 12 to two in favor of the clinical benefit/risk profile of imetelstat for the treatment of transfusion-dependent (TD) anemia in certain adult patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. The agency assigned a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of June 16, 2024, for Geron’s NDA for imetelstat. It is among the most anticipated drug launches this year.View Our Interactive Dashboard on Oligonucleotide Therapies (Free Excel Available) Our viewDeveloping ONTs is a field fraught with challenges, such as toxicity and drug delivery. There are safety concerns as well as concerns around delivering the therapy. However, technological breakthroughs and collaborations between pharma firms and contract research organizations that focus on drug delivery are continuously working towards addressing these challenges. All in all, we foresee exciting times ahead for ONTs.
