1 a New Era Begins Live attenuated intranasal Influenza Vaccine

2 Some Considerations for Evaluation of a Live Vaccine Safety Efficacy Risk:Benefit Basis of Attenuation Transmission/ genetic stability Time to Development Cost

3 Structure of Influenza Virus (Type A and B) Viral Genome 8 Negative-Sense RNA Segments Viral Non-Envelope Proteins: PB1, PB2, PA Polymerase Complex NP Matrix (M1) Non-Structural Proteins NS1, NEP M2 Neuraminidase (NA) Viral Envelope Proteins: Hemagglutinin (HA)

4 Influenza Epidemiology / Burden of Disease

5 Influenza Most common medically attended acute respiratory illness Fever, chills, myalgia, cough, sore throat, nasal congestion, headache, malaise Annual U.S. disease burden  20-50M people infected  20,000-50,000 deaths  70M lost work days and 38M lost school days  Societal costs nearly $12B MMWR 2001; American Lung Association, 3/01

Epidemiol Rev. 1996; 18(1),64-76. 20 60

7 Vaccination is primary method for prevention of disease  Trivalent inactivated vaccine given IM  Recommended 6-24 months, >50 years  Virus “drift” dictates annual vaccination Two manufacturers  Aventis Pasteur  Chiron (Powderject/Evans/Medeva) 80- 90M doses sold annually in U.S.  Growing at 7% Inactivated Influenza Vaccine

8 Current Trivalent Inactivated Influenza Vaccine (TIV)  93 million doses of TIV sold in U.S. for 2002/2003, but  25M-50M annual influenza infections in the US  70M lost work days, 38M missed school days  Limitations of TIV vaccine program  150 million healthy people not vaccinated  <10% of healthy children, < 30% of healthy adults <30% of high risk children  Annual injection required  A live Flu vaccine meets a major public health need  Ease/ acceptance of administration

9  Live, cold-adapted, attenuated influenza virus vaccine: current indication –healthy individuals 5- 49 years of age  Delivered by large particle intranasal mist  Trivalent blend of 10 7.0 infectious particles of each strain: A/H1N1, A/H3N2, B  Induction of systemic IgG/IgA, local secretory IgA and cytotoxic T cell responses  > 20 clinical trials completed; >25,000 subjects First live attenuated Nasal Flu Vaccine- FluMist™

15 Efficacy Trial Healthy Children Study AV006 Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled two year trial 1,602 healthy children ages 15-71 months at entry Active surveillance with illness cultures Primary endpoint: culture-confirmed influenza Circulating strains  A/Wuhan/359/95 (H3N2) and B/Beijing/184/93-like in Year 1  A/Sydney/05/97 (H3N2), a mismatched strain in Year 2

16 Safety of FluMist in Indicated Populations (Ages 5-49 years) Generally safe and well tolerated Most common side effects are mild and temporary  Runny nose and other various cold-like symptoms No related serious adverse events

33 Conclusions/ Issues 1)Flumist tm is safe and effective in healthy children and adults 2)Flumist tm phenotypes (ts, att) are multigenic and stable 3)Flumist tm has a low transmission rate 4)The road from invention to licensure is long and unpredictable, as is the road to acceptance 5)Major issues to be resolved : a. Relationship of Flumist tm to asthma b. Safety and efficacy in 50-64 year olds c. reverse genetics to select new vaccines d. concurrent vaccination: safety/ efficacy e. cost f. Heterotypic immunity

34 Optimal Indication for a Live Attenuated Influenza Vaccine Healthy children and healthy adults ages 6 months to 65 years
