5. Pregabalin is marketed by Pfizer under the trade name Lyrica. It was designed as a more potent successor to gabapentin. Pregabalin received U.S. FDA approval for use in treating epilepsy, diabetic neuropathic pain, and postherpetic neuralgia in December 2004 and appeared on the U.S. market in fall 2005. It is an anticonvulsant drug used for neuropathic pain and as an adjunct therapy for partial seizures It is also effective for generalized anxiety disorder and is approved for this use in the European Union and Russia Sales reached $3.063 billion in 2010. Lyrica is one of four drugs which a subsidiary of Pfizer in 2009 pleaded guilty to misbranding "with the intent to defraud or mislead". Pfizer agreed to pay $2.3 billion in settlement Pregabalin/Lyrica 5

Molecular Imaging – Platform Technology Streptavidin (or avidin) & biotin Bispecific antibody and hapten DNA and complementary DNA PNA and complementary PNA Morpholino and complementary morpholino FKBP and rapamycin The effector molecule is given some time after the targeting agent. This allows time for the targeting agent to localize in tumor lesions and, more importantly clear from the body. Tumor target cPNA (effector) Ab PNA

18. Topic 326: Development of Novel Therapeutic Agents That Target Cancer Stem Cells 18 (Fast-Track proposals will not be accepted.) Budget (total costs): PhI: $225,000 for 9 months; PhII: $1,500,000 for 2 years Number of anticipated awards: 3-5 Project Goals: Proposals under this topic should be involved the development of novel therapeutic agents that target CSCs. These small molecules or biologics should be designed to target CSCs, CSC-related biomarkers, or CSC pathways that affect fundamental processes associated with carcinogenesis, tumor progression, maintenance, recurrence or metastasis. Particular emphasis is placed on agents that target CSC self-renewal, regeneration, or differentiation processes. Phase I Activities & Deliverables: Demonstrate in vitro efficacy for the agent(s) that targets CSCs. Validate the effect of the agent(s) on CSCs. The offerors are required to provide evidence confirming that the agent(s) specifically targets CSCs (e.g., measurement showing reduced quantity, viability, or frequency of CSCs). Conduct structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies, medicinal chemistry, and/or lead antibody optimization (as appropriate). Perform animal toxicology and pharmacology studies as appropriate for the agent(s) selected for development. Develop a detailed experimental plan (to be pursued under a future SBIR Phase II award) necessary for filing an IND or an exploratory IND.
