In 2021, the company was listed on the KOSPI market in Korea, showcasing its two novel antibody drugs and biosimilars of three blockbuster drugs. Notably, Prestige Biopharma is currently in the process of developing an antibody drug named PBP1510, which specifically targets and neutralizes PAUF, a protein found to be overexpressed in over 80% of pancreatic cancer patients. This protein is believed to play a crucial role in the progression and metastasis of pancreatic cancer. PBP1510 has been designated as an orphan drug by the FDA, EMA, and MFDS in 2021. It is currently undergoing Phase 1/2a clinical trials in the US and Europe and has recently been granted FDA Fast Track designation.

Prestige Biopharma has received Fast Track designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for PBP1510 (International Non-proprietary name: Ulenistamab), in the treatment of unresectable or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) that has relapsed following and/or is refractory to at least one line of prior therapy. PBP1510 targets Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Upregulated Factor (PAUF), a tumour-specific protein, found to be overexpressed in majority of pancreatic cancer cases. PAUF overexpression promotes key cellular functions, including proliferation, migration, invasion, and growth of pancreatic cancer cells, and contributes to the development of acquired resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. PBP1510 is designed to target these key biological mechanisms that results in limited effectiveness of current treatment options and rapid progression of pancreatic cancer. By effectively inhibiting the tumorigenic effects of PAUF overexpression in preclinical models, PBP1510 represents a promising therapeutic strategy for addressing the unmet medical needs of pancreatic cancer patients. A global Phase 1/2a clinical trial is currently underway in the United States, Europe, and Asia, with the aim of bringing this innovative therapy to the clinic. The first-in-human Phase 1/2a study is an open-label, multicentre, two-part study in patients with advanced/metastatic pancreatic cancer. Phase 1 is a dose-escalation phase, wherein PBP1510 will be administered, either as monotherapy or in combination with gemcitabine, in two separate dose-escalation cohorts. From Phase 1 part of the study a recommended Phase 2a dose (RP2D) will be determined based on the analysis of pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy data. Phase 2 is a dose-expansion phase, wherein PBP1510 at the RP2D in combination with gemcitabine will be administered to evaluate efficacy and safety of PBP1510.Overall, the Phase 1/2a study aims to collect important safety data on the use of PBP1510 as a monotherapy or in combination with gemcitabine and explore the efficacy of a combined PBP1510 and gemcitabine regimen. The study will substantiate the preclinical findings of PBP1510’s synergistic antitumour activity in combination therapy with gemcitabine without increased toxicity, as anticipated from their distinct mechanisms of action. With Fast Track designation from the FDA, PBP1510 represents a promising advancement in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. Prestige Biopharma intends to take full advantage of the benefits offered by the designation to provide faster access for patients in need.

SINGAPORE, 28 February 2023Prestige Biopharma Limited, a Singapore-based biopharmaceutical company, announced that the company requested Fast Track designation to US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for its first-in-class anti-PAUF monoclonal antibody ‘PBP1510 (INN-ulenistamab)’ for pancreatic cancer treatment. FDA will review the request and decide within sixty days. In June 2022, the company was granted approval for phase 1/2a clinical trial of PBP1510 in the US by FDA. The company plans to further expedite the development through FDA’s approach. PBP1510 has been recognized as a promising new drug for pancreatic cancer treatment. The drug targets and neutralizes PAUF (Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Up-regulated Factor), a protein that plays a critical role in tumor growth and rapid progression of pancreatic cancer. In 2020, PBP1510 was granted Orphan Drug designation by the US FDA, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), and Korea Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. In addition, the company has applied for patent for the first-in-class antibody in 24 countries, which has been successfully registered in 10 countries as of now including the US, Korea, and Singapore. Fast track is a process designed to facilitate the development and expedite the review of drugs to treat serious conditions and fill an unmet medical need. To receive Fast Track designation, it must be determined that a drug treats or prevents a serious condition with no current therapy or show some advantage over available therapy in a serious condition. Pancreatic cancer has the highest mortality rate among major cancers and is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the US. The company aims to pave the express way for PBP1510 by seeking close consultation and support from FDA through Fast Track designation.  Upon receiving Fast Track designation, the company will have more frequent meetings with FDA to discuss the drug’s development plan and ensure collection of appropriate data needed to support drug approval. In addition, it can have more frequent written communication from FDA on such matters as the design of the proposed clinical trials and use of biomarkers. These benefits lead to higher efficiency and stability in development. Moreover, the company is eligible for Rolling Review, which means that a drug company can submit completed sections of its New Drug Application (NDA) for review by FDA, rather than waiting until every section of the NDA is completed before the entire application can be reviewed which is the usual case. Dr. Lisa S. Park, CEO of Prestige Biopharma, commented: “We are making all round efforts to ensure the success of our first-in-class antibody PBP1510 through patent registration, clinical studies and development, and preparation for market authorization and commercialization. In addition to the Fast Track designation request, we also plan to request for FDA’s Breakthrough Therapy designation for PBP1510, as soon as we confirm preliminary clinical evidence on significant endpoint, to secure intensive guidance on efficient drug development program and organizational commitment involving senior managers.”
