TUSTIN, 8/14/13: Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: PPHM) today announced the presentation of preclinical data and ongoing drug development activities highlighting the immune-stimulatory mechanism of action of phosphatidylserine (PS)-targeting antibodies, such as the company's lead drug candidate bavituximab. Data from this presentation showed that PS-targeting antibodies block a primary upstream immune checkpoint, thus inhibiting PS from engaging its natural receptors on immune cells, resulting in multiple downstream immunostimulatory effects. Bavituximab is the company's lead PS-targeting investigational product and is currently being evaluated in several solid tumor indications with the initiation of a Phase III trial in second-line non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) anticipated by calendar year-end. This presentation was made today at Cambridge Healthtech Institute's Immunotherapies Congress in Boston, Massachusetts.
The presentation titled: "Engagement of Phosphatidylserine (PS) by PS-targeting Antibodies Blocks an Upstream Immunosuppressive Checkpoint in the Tumor Microenvironment; Inducing Multiple Downstream Anti-tumor Response Mechanisms" detailed the role of exposed PS as an important upstream immune checkpoint. Administration of PS-targeting antibodies was shown to mediate pro-inflammatory cellular and cytokine responses that convert immunosuppressive cells known as myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) into tumor fighting (M1) macrophages. PS-targeting antibodies also facilitated the maturation of dendritic cells capable of presenting tumor antigens to T-cells to facilitate tumor-specific cytotoxicity. These multiple anti-tumor effects were further shown to occur without the side-effects associated with systemic immune activation. This was presented by Jeff T. Hutchins, Ph.D., VP, Pre-Clinical Research of Peregrine Pharmaceuticals.
"We are pleased to be presenting this compelling data to investigators of the oncology and immunology community as these results clearly demonstrate the immune-stimulatory effects of bavituximab," said Dr. Hutchins. "These data have shown the breadth of bavituximab's potential benefits as an immunotherapy and have led to the implementation of a supplemental clinical development strategy that explores the synergies between bavituximab and other immunotherapeutic drugs. The first part of this plan began in June with the initiation of several proof-of-concept preclinical studies constructed to read out in the next couple of months in order to assist us in designing a clinical trial examining a combination of bavituximab with an approved immunotherapy. In addition, we are leveraging data from our ongoing investigator-sponsored clinical trials to garner additional insight to support our development activities. We believe that this immune-stimulatory data shows that bavituximab has the potential to be combined with multiple downstream immunotherapies, such as Anti-PD-1, Anti-PDL-1, Anti-CTLA-4, IL-2, or PAP-GMCSF, to provide increased therapeutic benefit."
In addition, Dr. Hutchins reviewed the supporting rationale for the combination use of bavituximab and the chemotherapeutic agent docetaxel. Citing the synergistic immunotherapeutic mechanisms of each of bavituximab and docetaxel, the presentation summarized the promising data generated to date that further validate this combination therapy and provide additional scientific rationale that supports advancing this program into Phase III.
"These data clarify our understanding of bavituximab, put recent clinical results into greater perspective and allow us to supplement our current drug development strategy in order to enhance bavituximab's therapeutic potential," said Joseph Shan, VP, Clinical & Regulatory Affairs of Peregrine. "As a result of the recent insights into bavituximab's mechanism of action, we are actively engaged with key opinion leaders in the field of immunology to assist us as we advance this concurrent immune-stimulatory-focused clinical program."

About Bavituximab: A Targeted Immunotherapy
Bavituximab is a first-in-class phosphatidylserine (PS)-targeting monoclonal antibody that represents a new approach to treating cancer. PS is a highly immunosuppressive molecule usually located inside the membrane of healthy cells, but "flips" and becomes exposed on the outside of cells that line tumor blood vessels, causing the tumor to evade immune detection. Bavituximab targets PS and activates the maturation of dendritic cells and cancer-fighting (M1) macrophages leading to the development of cytotoxic T-cells that fight solid tumors through blocking this immunosuppressive PS signal. Bavituximab is the company's lead PS-targeting investigational product and is currently being evaluated in several solid tumor indications, including non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, liver cancer and rectal cancer.

PEREGRINE (Dr. Hutchins) – Aug. 14 3:00pm:
Session: Immune Checkpoint Blockades
Presentation: “Engagement of Phosphatidylserine (PS) by PS-targeting Antibodies Blocks an Upstream Immunosuppressive Checkpoint in the Tumor Microenvironment; Inducing Multiple Downstream Anti-tumor Response Mechanisms”
Jeffrey T. Hutchins, PhD, VP, Preclinical Research, Peregrine Pharmaceuticals
ABSTRACT:
The hallmark of apoptosis, phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure promotes non-inflammatory phagocytosis of dying native cells. This signaling pathway appears to be exploited by tumors resulting in the suppression of both innate and adaptive tumor immune responses. Administration of PS-targeting antibodies mediates pro-inflammatory cellular and cytokine responses that reverse this immunosuppressive checkpoint without the side-effects associated with systemic immune activation. Bavituximab is a late-stage clinical PS-targeting antibody that has demonstrated promising signs of anti-tumor activity and extended survival in patients with NSCLC and breast cancer.

Wedbush Q&A – S.King responding to the question, “When are you going to partner?”…
SK 8-13-13: “We have very active partnering discussions around our 2 lead programs. Our stated goal is to ideally have a partner for both programs, Cotara, and really with all the activities going on around Bavituximab, it’s going to be necessary. We’re in a position to run a Phase III for Bavituximab and to run that study by ourselves if a partner doesn’t come on board or if the right terms aren’t on the table. Having said that, our stated goal is to identify primarily ex-U.S. partners; we’d like to at least maintain co-promotional rights here in the U.S. and there’s some significant upside at the end of the development road here. So, you know, they all have their own tone & tenor, and we’re very actively working toward it.”
