Emerging Drugs

Adlumiz/Edolmizu: Helsinn Healthcare

Adlumiz (anamorelin HCl/ONO-7643/ANAM/Edolmizu) is a selective, novel, orally active ghrelin receptor agonist. Ghrelin is an endogenous peptide primarily secreted by the stomach. Upon binding to its receptor, ghrelin stimulates multiple pathways in the positive regulation of body weight, muscle mass, appetite, and metabolism. Anamorelin has shown effects in increasing body weight and muscle mass, as well as appetite in patients with cancer cachexia. Currently, the drug is in the Phase III stage of clinical development for the treatment of malignancy-associated weight loss and anorexia in adult patients with advanced NSCLC, which was initiated in March 2019.

ART27.13: Artelo Biosciences

ART27.13 (formerly known as NEO1940 and AZD1940) is a highly potent, peripherally restricted synthetic, dual G-Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR) agonist believed to target peripheral CB1/CB2 receptors, which has the potential to increase appetite and food intake. Originally developed by AstraZeneca, ART27.13 has been in five Phase I clinical studies, including over 200 subjects, where it demonstrated a statistically significant and dose-dependent increase in body weight in healthy subjects. Currently, the drug is clinic-ready for a Phase Ib/IIa study in anorexia associated with cancer.

NGM120: NGM Biopharmaceuticals

NGM120 is a first-in-class antagonistic antibody that binds glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor receptor alpha-like (GFRAL) and inhibits growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) signaling for the potential treatment of cancer and cancer anorexia/cachexia syndrome (CACS). In preclinical studies of NGM120, it has been demonstrated that blocking the interaction between GFRAL and GDF15 is able to both reduce tumor-associated weight loss and slow tumor growth and could potentially provide a novel treatment for CACS and cancer. Following the successful completion of a Phase I safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics study of NGM120 in healthy adult subjects in 2019, the drug is currently in a Phase Ia/Ib study.

Market Outlook

The treatment of anorexia related to cancer focuses on improving the appetite and neutralizing the metabolic disturbances. Current pharmacological agents can be categorized as orexigenic agents (appetite stimulants), anti-catabolic (anti-metabolic and anti-cytokine) agents, and anabolic agents (primarily hormonal).

Progestagens (megestrol acetate and medroxyprogesterone acetate) are often used as the first-line therapy for cancer anorexia and cachexia. Additionally, the US FDA approved Megestrol to treat anorexia and weight loss in patients with AIDS in 1993. Corticosteroids, mainly dexamethasone, are widely used to improve appetite in patients with cancer anorexia, however, they are associated with significant side effects, including gastrointestinal bleeding, oral candidiasis, and proximal myopathy. Other than corticosteroids and progestogens, there are certain less frequently prescribed medications for improving cancer-related anorexia, which includes NSAIDs, Omega 3 fatty acids, and cannabis.

The current market of cancer anorexia is dominated by off-label treatments, which are not very effective in providing relief to the patients and cannot be used in the long-term because of their various side-effects. Moreover, the emerging pipeline of cancer anorexia is quite weak, with three promising lead candidates in the late and early stages of development. The candidates with promising results include Anamorelin HCl (Adlumiz, ONO-7643 and ANAM), ART27.13, and NGM120 by potential key players Helsinn Healthcare, Artelo Biosciences, and NGM Biopharmaceuticals, respectively.

  • The United States accounts for the largest market size of USD 133.71 Million in 2020 of Cancer Anorexia throughout the study period of 2018-2030, in comparison to EU5 (Italy, Germany, France, Spain, the UK) and Japan, respectively.
  • Among the EU5 countries, Germany had the highest market size with USD 27.36 Million in 2020, while Spain had the lowest market size with USD 13.74 Million in 2020.

Report Highlights

  • In the coming years, Cancer Anorexia market is set to change due to the rising awareness of the disease, and incremental healthcare spending across the world; which would expand the size of the market to enable the drug manufacturers to penetrate more into the market.
  • The companies and academics are working to assess challenges and seek opportunities that could influence Cancer Anorexia R&D. The therapies under development are focused on novel approaches to treat/improve the disease condition.
  • Positive results by major key players NGM Biopharmaceuticals, Artelo Biosciences and Helsinn Healthcare may increase market size in the coming years, assisted by an increase in Cancer Anorexia incident population pool.

Analyst Comments

  • Currently, corticosteroids have been recommended in professional guidelines and have been associated with some improvement in appetite. Progestagens have also demonstrated an improved appetite in patients at various phases of care in multiple research studies and systematic reviews. Thus, steroid medication like dexamethasone and progesterone hormone-like medication like megestrol acetate are the most frequently used pharmacological drugs to stimulate appetite and improve weight.
  • Additionally, as per PMR interviews, the prescription pattern of these medications vary in different regions, for instance, progestogens are considered as the first line treatment while corticosteroids are less frequently prescribed within the United States. The use of corticosteroids are limited in this region due to the high rate of adverse events associated with long term usage of this therapy along with the fact that the drug fails to increase the appetite after few months.
  • Emerging candidate, Anamorlin has higher chances of success in the near future as the other pipeline therapies, namely ART27.13 and NGM120 are still under the early phases of development. They will require few years to be investigated and launched in the market as potential therapeutic treatment options for cancer anorexia.
