Proposed IndicationDalteparin sNDA 20-287 S-035

Dalteparin sodium (Fragmin) is also indicated for the extended treatment of symptomatic venous thromboembolism [(VTE), proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and/or pulmonary embolism (PE)] to reduce the recurrence of VTE in patients with cancer

Regulatory HistoryDalteparin (Fragmin)

First approved in Germany in 1985 for anticoagulation during hemodialysis and hemofiltration

Currently approved in over 80 countries worldwide Approved for extended treatment of symptomatic VTE

to reduce the recurrence of VTE in patients with cancer in 19 countries

First US approval 1994, for prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) which may lead to pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients undergoing abdominal surgery who are at risk for thromboembolic complications

7

Approved Dalteparin Indications US Package Insert

Prophylaxis of DVT which may lead to PE in;

Patients undergoing abdominal surgery (December 22,1994)

Patients undergoing hip replacement surgery (March 30, 1999)

Medical patients who are at risk for thromboembolic complications due to severely restricted mobility during acute illness (December 10, 2003)

Prophylaxis of ischemic complications in unstable angina and non-Q-wave MI when concurrently administered with aspirin therapy (May 25, 1999)

8

Regulatory BackgroundDalteparin sNDA 20-287 S-035

March 16, 2004 - Pfizer submitted sNDA for an indication in patients with VTE and cancer supported by data from the “CLOT” trial*

January 14, 2005 - FDA issued “approvable” letter of sNDA

March 14, 2006 - FDA issued “non-approvable” letter

June 9, 2006 - FDA advised Pfizer of intention to have Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee evaluate the “CLOT” trial results

* Randomized Comparison of Low Molecular Weight Heparin versus Oral Anticoagulant Therapy for Long-Term Anticoagulation in Cancer Patients with Venous Thromboembolism

Background: VTE & Cancer

Craig Eagle, M.D. Pfizer, Inc

11

Association of VTE and cancer first noted by Trousseau in 1865

4 to 7-fold increase in risk of venous thrombosis in cancer patients

The estimated annual incidence of VTE in cancer patients is about 1:200

VTE causes symptoms and signs by venous obstruction, inflammation and embolization

VTE is a Common Complication in Patients with Malignancy

12

Clinical Problem

Patients with deep vein thrombosis have a painful swollen leg which limits their mobility

13

Clinical Problem

Thrombus in a deep vein can fragment and embolize to the lung

Patients with pulmonary embolism frequently present with shortness of breath and chest pain

Ventilation Perfusion

14

Clinical Problem

Pulmonary embolism can be fatal

15

Vitamin K antagonist OAC (INR 2.0 - 3.0)

≥ 3 months

LMWH or UFH

5 to 7 days (until INR >2)Initial treatment

Long-term therapy

Treatment for VTE

7th ACCP anti-thrombotic guidelines Chest 2004; 126: 401S-428S

16

Cumulative Incidence of Recurrent VTE During Anticoagulant Therapy

Hazard ratio 3.2(95% CI 1.9, 5.4)

Prandoni P, et al, Blood. 2002;100:3484-3488

17

Comparison of Warfarin and LMWH

Warfarin Problem LMWH Advantages

Reduces the function of coagulation factors including prothrombin

Inhibits activated coagulation factors in particular factor Xa

Difficulty maintaining therapeutic control

More predictable anticoagulant response

Interruption & reversal of OAC for thrombocytopenia and procedures

Only interrupted if platelets very low. Much simpler to handle if procedure required

Venous access Does not require lab monitoring

Multiple interactions with drugs No or few interactions with drugs

19

Conclusion: VTE Management in Cancer Patients is Suboptimal

Cancer patients with VTE are at increased risk of recurrent VTE compared to non-cancer patients

No FDA approved medication for prevention of recurrent VTE in cancer patients

LMWH therapy has the potential to confer clinical benefit in the management of VTE

Dalteparin has been shown to be effective for initial treatment of VTE

CLOT study was designed to evaluate extended use of dalteparin in cancer patients

Is long-term therapy with LMWH dalteparin more effective than oral anticoagulant (OAC) therapy in preventing recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with cancer?

Key Characteristics of the CLOT Trial Design

Open label study design

Initial treatment regimen

Dalteparin dosing

6 month treatment duration

52

CLOT Study: Design Rationale

Rationale for open label study: Unsafe to blindly manage anticoagulant therapy

(e.g. thrombocytopenia, surgery, invasive procedures) Easy to unblind

(off-study coagulation tests common) Difficult for sham INRs to mimic reality

(multiple clinical factors in each case can determine INR levels) Undesirable to do sham blood work

(frequent venipuncture, painful procedures, extra blood taken from cancer patients who can be anemic)

Undesirable and impractical to do placebo subcutaneous injections(can cause hematoma at placebo injection sites)

53

CLOT Study: Minimize Bias

Safeguards to minimize bias:

A priori definition of VTE recurrence based on objective investigations

Telephone check every 2 weeks on follow-up in both groups

Diagnostic algorithms for recurrent VTE

Independent blinded Central Adjudication Committee reviewed and adjudicated all primary and secondary outcome events

54

CLOT Study: Initial Treatment Regimen Rationale

Use of dalteparin in both arms for initial treatment was adopted after careful consideration by the CLOT Steering Committee

No LMWH was approved for use in cancer patients at the time of trial conception

Limit the number of variables in the trial

Documented effectiveness of dalteparin

55

CLOT Study: Dalteparin Dosing Rationale

Efficacy of Dalteparin 200 IU/kg shown in acute VTE treatment (previous trials and literature)

1st Month Increased risk of recurrent VTE highest in 1st

month after initial occurrence (exacerbated in cancer patients), therefore, higher dose administered

Following 5 months Dose lowered to 150 IU/kg reflecting decreased

risk of recurrent VTE and need to minimize bleeding

56

CLOT Study: 6 Month Treatment Duration Rationale

Potential advantages of dalteparin vs. OAC in long-term treatment of patients with cancer

Long-term OAC Standard of Care: Patients with extensive cancer treated with OAC

often until death Patients without evidence of active cancer

treated with OAC for a minimum of 3-6 months

Dalteparin is proven to be an effective anticoagulant for primary prophylaxis in various clinical settings

67

Competing Risk:Death and Recurrence of VTE

Could mortality account for the significant dalteparin benefit?

Two scenarios in which mortality would be informative regarding the relative risk of VTE:

1. The mortality rate would have to be different between the two treatment groups

2. The mortality censoring would have to affect the probability of VTE differentially in the treatment groups

68

Competing Risk:Death and Recurrence of VTE

Scenario One: Mortality rates are different between the treatment groups Cumulative mortality at all times within the 6-month

observation period was almost identical in the two treatment groups

Therefore the degree of mortality censoring is non-informative regarding the relative risk

69

Competing Risk:Death and Recurrence of VTE

Scenario Two: The mortality censoring would have to affect the probability of VTE differentially in the treatment groups Most (> 90%) deaths in both treatment groups were

due to cancer

Therefore it is unlikely that the probability of VTE for subjects who died relative to the observed probability would have differed between the two groups

70

Competing Risk:Death and Recurrence of VTE

Mortality Censoring and benefit within the initial 30 days

Most deaths occurred after the benefit of dalteparin was established in the initial 30 days and during the period (days 30-180) when the probability of VTE was relatively low

VTE Management in Cancer Patients is Suboptimal

In patients with cancer: VTE recurrence is more common (HR 3.2) VTE complicates management of cancer No FDA approved medication for the extended use in

reducing recurrence of VTE without concomitant warfarin requiring blood monitoring

Oral anti-coagulant (OAC) Difficult to maintain and manage

Dalteparin Established efficacy and safety in prophylaxis of VTE

in non-cancer patients Predictable dosing and reduced need for monitoring

78

Summary of CLOT Study

Highly significant (p=0.0017) reduction in recurrence rate of VTE (52% reduction dalteparin vs OAC) Compelling p-value

Results consistent across study subsets

Favorable risk/benefit profile

Builds on previous clinical trial experience with dalteparin in VTE

79

Conclusion

Dalteparin provides cancer patients with VTE:

An effective treatment (52% reduction in recurrence of VTE)

A favorable treatment in terms of risk/benefit

A more manageable therapeutic option
