United States Department of Health & Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response Building the Plane… While Flying Debra A. Yeskey, Pharm. D. Director, Regulatory & Quality Affairs BARDA/ASPR/HHS November 19, 2013
Objectives • Building and Flying: • The infrastructure • A decade of MCM product development • Looking into the Future
Man-Made & Mother Nature’s Threats Have Become Reality Since 9/11
Antimicrobials Diagnostics Vaccines Therapeutics Medical Devices Medical Countermeasures
MCMs are Needed for Public Health and National Security • The tools to manipulate biological agents are increasing exponentially in power and becoming more widespread and affordable, increasing the risk they will be misused. • Mother Nature is relentless with SARS, H5N1, H1N1, H7N9, and MERS-CoV in the past ten years. • Medical countermeasures, and hence BARDA and the Special Reserve Fund, remain central to our national security and public health well being now and for the foreseeable future. • MCM development is lengthy, expensive, and risky requiring sustained commitment; failure to maintain USG investment at current levels will dramatically erode private sector confidence and partnerships.
PHEMCE Process: Threat Assessments to Medical Countermeasures • Threat Assessment/Determination (DHS) • Medical Consequence Modeling (HHS/BARDA) • Medical Countermeasure Requirements (HHS/ASPR with PHEMCE) • Medical Countermeasure Discovery & Early Development (NIH & DoD) • Medical Countermeasure Advanced Development (HHS/BARDA) • Unlicensed Medical Countermeasure Acquisition (HHS/BARDA) • Licensed Medical Countermeasure Acquisition (CDC/SNS)

BARDA Bridges the MCM “Valley of Death” to Reduce Cost, Time, && Risk NIH ($15.6 B) BARDA ($2.0 B) Valley of Death 3-7 yr 0.5-2 yr 1-2 yr 2-3.5yr 2.5-4 yr 1-2 yrs TIME PIPELINE PHASE COST $100M -130M $60-70M $70M-100M $130M-160M $190M-220M $18M-20M
Fitting Regulatory into a Preparedness Paradigm… • Preparedness • Long-term storage…”Trust us we’re the government” • IND then EUA • Regulatory Issues • CBER and CDER • Aggressive timelines • Labeling: IND to Approved/Licensed • Animal Rule/Phase 4 Commitments • Qualification of animal models • Advisory Committee Meetings • Normal stuff…
BARDA Created a Robust & Productive MCM Development Pipeline • More than 150 MCM product candidates in development since 2004 MCM Review PAHPRA H7N9 H5N1 PAHPA H1N1 PBS
BARDA Has Established Robust CBRN MCM Development Pipeline • BARDA CBRN MCM development pipeline has supported 80+ candidates since 2004 ($2.2 B) • Biothreats • Anthrax vaccines (7) and antitoxins (7) • Smallpox vaccine (3) and antiviral drugs (2) • Botulinum antitoxin (1) • Other biothreat antimicrobial drugs (7) • Rad/Nuc threats • Acute Radiation Syndrome drugs (36) • Decorporation agents (6) • Thermal burn therapies (4) • Biodosimetry devices (11) • Chem threats – antidotes & decon (4)
BARDA Delivered New MCMs under Project BioShield Smallpox Anthrax Radiation Botulism
BARDA Nurtured Influenza Vaccine Development to Achieve National Pan Flu Vaccine Goals Universal Vaccines Q-PAN H5N1 Vax BLA submitted 2012 Antigen-Sparing Vaccine Technology Recombinant-based Vaccines Cell-based Vaccines FluBlOk Licensed 01/16/13 Flucelvax Licensed 11/20/12 Egg-based Vaccines H5N1 vaccine Licensed 2007 “More and better vaccines sooner”
BARDA Built and Expanded National Pan Flu MCM Readiness Infrastructure • Established a pre-pandemic vaccine stockpile of H5N1 vaccine antigens & adjuvants($1.5 B) & a H7N9 vaccine stockpile this Fall ($110 M). • Procured initial federal antiviral drug stockpile & managed State antiviral drug stockpile procurement ($1 B) • Rebuilt domestic flu vaccine manufacturing infrastructure ($1 B) • will address domestically nearly 90% of U.S. pan flu vaccine need • secured the egg supply, • build and retrofitting facilities • established Centers for Innovation in Advanced Development & Manufacturing • Led product development towards FDA approval of vaccines (9) and diagnostics (3), EUA-issuance for antiviral drug during 2009 H1N1 pandemic, and anticipated approval of more vaccine (1) and diagnostics (3) in FY2013 • Leads vaccine development & stockpiling for current H7N9 outbreaks
