Acer Therapeutics is a biotech company, headquartered in Cambridge, MA, that develops repurposed and reformulated medicines for the treatment of ultra-orphan diseases with significant unmet medical needs. Acer`s lead candidate, EDVISO™ (celiprolol), is the first pharmaceutical therapy seeking approval for patients with vascular-type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS). Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a group of hereditary disorders of connective tissue with no ethnic predisposition. vEDS is a subtype characterized by severe arterial dissections, ruptures and early death. Complications are rare in childhood, but affect 25% of patients before the age of 20, and 80% by the age of 40. Median age of death is estimated to be around 50 years. Patients are diagnosed by clinical symptoms and confirmed by presence of mutations in the COL3A1 gene. There are approximately 2,000 documented patients, but prevalence could be as high as 5,000 patients in the U.S. (Pepin 2014). There are no specific pharmacological treatments for vEDS and medical intervention centers on symptomatic treatment, prophylactic measures and genetic counseling. Acer was awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA in January 2015. Acer`s second candidate, ACER-001, is the first pharmaceutical therapy being developed for patients with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD). MSUD is a devastating genetic disease – an inborn error of amino acid metabolism. Approximately 800 patients suffer from MSUD in the U.S. and 3,000 worldwide. There are no therapeutic options for MSUD and diet is not enough. Despite careful dietary management, the majority of MSUD patients have chronic neurological and social impairment, as well as life-threatening episodes of intoxication. Acer was awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA in August 2014.
Kamada is focused on plasma-derived protein therapeutics with a commercial product portfolio and a late-stage product pipeline. The Company uses its proprietary platform technology and know-how for the extraction and purification of proteins from human plasma to produce Alpha-1 Antitrypsin (AAT) in a highly-purified, liquid form, as well as other plasma-derived Immune globulins. AAT is a protein derived from human plasma with known and newly-discovered therapeutic roles given its immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, tissue-protective and antimicrobial properties. The Company`s flagship product is GLASSIA®, the first liquid, ready-to-use, intravenous plasma-derived AAT product approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Kamada markets GLASSIA® in the U.S. through a strategic partnership with Baxalta (now part of Shire plc) and in other counties through local distributors. In addition to GLASSIA®, Kamada has a product line of six other pharmaceutical products administered by injection or infusion, that are marketed through distributors in more than 15 countries, including Israel, Russia, Brazil, India and other countries in Latin America and Asia. Kamada`s rabies immune globulin (Human) product received FDA approval for Post-Exposure Prophylaxis against rabies infection and is marketed in the U.S. through a partnership with Kedrion Biopharma. Kamada has late-stage products in development, including an inhaled formulation of AAT for the treatment of AAT deficiency and, in addition, its intravenous AAT is in development for other indications, such as type-1 diabetes, GvHD and prevention of lung transplant rejection. Kamada also leverages its expertise and presence in the plasma-derived protein therapeutics market by distributing more than 10 complementary products in Israel that are manufactured by third parties.
