The Long-acting Basal Insulin (LAPSInsulin 115) Offers Once-weekly Dosing Potential With Favorable PK, PD And Mitogenic Profiles P933 IY Choi1, SY Hwang1, , JY Kim1, SY Jung1, DJ Kim1, YM Lee1, YH Kim1, M Trautmann2, M Hompesch2, JW Son1, SC Kwon1 1Hanmi Pharm. Co., Ltd., Seoul, South Korea, 2Profil Institute, Chula Vista, CA, USA RESULTS • PK matched with weekly GLP-1 for combination therapy • Longer half-life • Flat profile • Low Variability (intra-patient) BACKGROUND PK/PD Correlation and Dose Sparing Effect • Low Risk of hypos • Flexible timing/dosing • Little or no weight gain Figure 3.

In addition, LAPSInsulin 115 and Insulin 115 showed mitogenic/metabolic potency which was comparable to human insulin. Human PK and Developmental Plan Figure 6.

LAPSInsulin 115 demonstrated extended half-life and lower peak-to-trough ratio than LAPSInsulin. In addition, inter-day variability of LAPSInsulin 115 was ranged from 1.0-1.1. METHODS • LAPSInsulin 115 showed extended half-life compared with LAPSInsulin and daily insulins. • LAPSInsulin 115 showed a comparable PK profile in a renal failure rat model (4 mg/kg of cisplatin injected, ip, rats) compared with normal rats. • Figure 1. Mitogenic signaling in MCF-7 cells • In vitro receptor binding affinity and mitogenic signaling in MCF-7 • Binding affinity of test materials was measured in competition between unlabeled and 125I-labeled materialson the IR- or IGF-1R/CHO membrane. Mitogenic signaling was assayed in MCF-7 cells and the phosphorylation level was analyzed by Western blot. Figure 5. Dose-sparing and glucose lowering in db/db mice (n=7, s.c.) Figure 4. PK/PD in pigs (n=3, s.c.) CONCLUSIONS (a) Singledose • In vitrobiological properties showed that Insulin 115 and LAPSInsulin 115 did not increase the mitogenic potency when compared with insulin. • An extended PK profiles and prolonged glucose lowering efficacies suggest that LAPSInsulin 115 may achieve a basal insulin profile suitable for once weekly use. • The extended human PK modeling suggests that LAPSInsulin 115 is an ideal combination partner with LAPSCA-Exendin-4 [EASD 2014 Poster #972]. • Ex vivo T cell activation (Antitope limited, UK) • Test articles were incubated for 8 days with PBMC from 50 donors. Cell proliferation was meausred by [3H]-Thymidine incorporation and T-cell activation was identified with IL-2 secretion by Elispot assay. LAPS Insulin 115 t1/2 = 76.6 hrs Figure 2.

Renal failure SD rat model was induced by 4 mpk of cisplatin. Serum concentration of test articles were determined using ELISA and PK parameters were calculated by a non-compartmental method. p-IGF-1R LAPSInsulin115 t1/2 = 44.1 hrs 6 fold reduced dose IGF-1R IGF-1R p-AKT IRS-1/2 SHC LAPS Insulin t1/2 = 23 hrs AKT PI3K RAS/RAF • Phamacodynamic analysis of LAPSInsulin 115 in db/db mice • In an acute study, 4-hr fasting blood glucose level was measured every day after s.c administration of test articles in db/db mice. In a chronic study, HbA1c level was measured after 4-wk administration in db/db mice with Q2D dosing interval to mimic human QW dosing. p-ERK1/2 AKT ERK1/2 ERK1/2 Apoptosis Cell proliferation Actin LAPSInsulin t1/2 = 18.5 hrs IDeg t1/2 = 2.9 hrs 20K PEG Insulin t1/2 = 6.7 hrs • Pharmacokinetic prediction in human • Human serum concentration-time was predicted by Css-MRT method from PK parameters of mice, rats and dogs. Human CL was derived from rule of exponent methods, and human Vd was from allometry applied correction factor. REFERENCES • LAPSInsulin 115 showed prolonged glucose lowering effect compared to LAPSInsulin in db/db mice at the same dose and even with a 6 fold lower dose. • LAPSInsulin 115 achieved a similar HbA1c reduction with a 4 fold lower dose. • Insulin 115 showed negligible activation of T cells from 50 human donors, which is below the immunogenic threshold. In addition, LAPSInsulin 115 completely attenuated the residual T cell activation. 1. Diabetic Medicine (2013) 30: 1293–1297., 2. Diabetes (2011) 60 (Suppl. 1):LB11 (37-LB) 3.
