Panno's response
Author’s reply » Often, the FDA requires that new treatments be trialled in at least two different species before it gives approval for an IND. (Sidebar: this could be a problem with the Tribetarna trial because all the pre-clinical work was in mice.) I think that the company has already signed an agreement with a partner to do the testing of the AMD treatment in NHP. This means that, as soon as 4D has a vector that we are satisfied with, testing in a large animal model can begin. This would pave the way for a clinical trial.
There is no doubt that this program is going full steam ahead and I suspect that this schedule is being driven by big pharma. I suspect that one or more of the big pharmas has made it clear to Benitec what needs to be achieved before they buy into the program and the company is doing as much as it can to get to that stage. It would therefore not surprise me to see a deal done for the AMD program before it gets into the clinic. The increased funding that a deal would provide could easily see the start of a trial in 2016.
