Neuromuscular Blockers and Reversal Agent


Slide 6

NMB Overview Used to induce rapid total paralysis to permit intubation and muscle relaxation during surgery or in ventilated patients Used in the operating room/ASC to optimize surgical conditions Additional use in ICU to facilitate mechanical ventilation Procedural use increasing with growth of laparoscopic abdominal procedures 1. IMS, MIDAS 2010. NMB = Neuromuscular blocking agents * Based on extrapolations from dose escalation study in volunteers and on pre-clinical pharmacology data in animals ~400 million patients receive NMB agents annually1


Slide 7

Limitations of Current Standard of Care Agent Type Characteristics Products Limitations Depolarizing Open receptor channels similar to acetylcholine Succinylcholine Malignant hyperthermia Fasciculations – micro contractions Hyperkalemia – high potassium levels Anaphylaxis - Residual neuromuscular blockade Non-Depolarizing Create neuromuscular blockade by competing with acetylcholine at neuromuscular junction Rocuronium (largest usage) Vecuronium (and similar substituents) Anaphylaxis Residual neuromuscular blockade Not ideally suited to Rapid Sequence Intubation


Slide 8

Limitations of Current Standard of Care (continued) Agent Type Characteristics Products Limitations Reversal Agents Cyclodextrin which chelates the NMB The only selective relaxant binding agent in routine clinical use Sugammadex (Bridion® - Merck, $1.6B) Dose will vary by time of administration relative to time of NMB administration to dose of NMB given Faster recovery than neostigmine as evidenced by numerous studies Anaphylaxis, hypersensitivity reactions seen in some Sugammadex patient and healthy volunteers Current Standard Blocks pseudocholinesterase A type of “nerve agent” Neostigmine (generic) Indirect, not direct, so not as quick Anticholinesterases act indirectly by increasing acetylcholine in neuromuscular junctions Requires an antimuscarinic product (atropine, scopolamine) to be administered to prevent excessive secretions


Slide 9

Portfolio offers potential to improve patient management Rapid onset/offset may increase procedure capacity, reduce costs BX1000 BX2000 BX3000 AGENT Intermediate duration of action (est. 30-45 mins) Ultra short acting (est. 10-15 mins) Rapid offset (2-5 min) Rapid onset Predictable offset without reversal Rapid onset Predictable offset without reversal Specific for BX1000 and BX2000. Rapid Chemical reversal of neuromuscular blockade from any depth. Predictable dosing for rapid reversal DURATION OF ACTION TARGET PROFILE

Slide 11

Study BDX-22-006 - Objectives To evaluate the intubating conditions at 60, 90 or 120 seconds after administration of BX1000 or Rocuronium To evaluate the safety and tolerability of BX1000 To evaluate the neuromuscular blocking (NMB) profile of BX1000
