  3. Proposed Names Proprietary Name Rotavirus Vaccine, Live, Oral Trade NameRotarix®

  4. Human RV Vaccine - Rotarix • Lyophilized vaccine + liquid diluent (CaCO3) • 1 mL per dose • Each dose: ≥106 CCID50 of live, attenuated HRV strain • Orally administered • 2 doses • 1st dose beginning at 6 weeks of age • 2nd dose at ≥4 weeks after first dose; completed by 24 weeks of age

  5. Proposed Indication ROTARIX is indicated for the prevention of rotavirus gastroenteritis caused by G1 and non-G1 types (including G2, G3, G4 and G9) when administered as a 2-dose series to infants 6 to 24 weeks of age.

  9. Rotavirus Virion • 11 segments of dsRNA encased by 3 protein capsids • VP6 common to all RV strains • Outer capsid proteins VP7 (G protein) and VP4 (P protein) induce neutralizing antibodies involved in disease protection • Human RV classified into 10 G (VP7) and 11 P (VP4) types • 5 G-P combinations constitute 90% of worldwide strains:G1P[8], G2P[4], G3P[8], G4P[8], G9P[8] • P[4] and P[8] share cross-reactive epitopes Figure adapted from Cunliffe et al, Lancet 2002;359:640–642

  12. Rotavirus Vaccines - History • Development of live attenuated rotavirus vaccines derived from animal hosts began in 1970s • RotaShield®:rhesus-human reassortant vaccine licensed in the US in 1998 • Withdrawn in 1999 due to causal link with intussusception • RotaTeq®: human-bovine reassortant vaccine licensed in 2006 • Rotarix®: live attenuated human RV vaccine Large scale placebo-controlled safety trials required to refute intussusception related to vaccination

  13. Global Strategy for Rotarix Vaccine Development Following RotaShield withdrawal in 1999: • Need for very large studies to assess risk of possible vaccine-induced intussusception (60,000 subjects) • WHO recommendation to manufacturers to extend their development programs to countries with high medical need • Majority of deaths resulting from RV gastroenteritis occur in South East Asia, Africa and Latin America • Other considerations:- Availability of sound epidemiology data on RV disease and intussusceptions rates- a healthcare infrastructure to conduct very large trials

  15. Global Clinical Development Non US clinical studies were pivotal for US licensure as all complied with the following criteria defined by FDA for acceptance of foreign clinical data (21 CFR §312.120, § 314.106; ICH E5) • Circulating serotypes and IS background rates are similar to the US • Objectivity of pivotal endpoints • Identification of IS • Case definition for RV GE • Use of internationally accepted and widely used scoring system for severity of GE • Study design and conduct in compliance with GCPs
