BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Jan. 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Insmed Incorporated (Nasdaq:INSM), a global biopharmaceutical company on a mission to transform the lives of patients with serious and rare diseases, today provided an update on the Company's four pillars and outlined its near-term strategic priorities. These updates will be discussed as part of the Company's presentation at the 41^st Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco on Monday, January 9, 2023, at 4:30 p.m. PT (7:30 p.m. ET).

"With a strong commercial engine, meaningful cash on hand, and a maturing pipeline with multiple near-term catalysts, Insmed is well-positioned to become one of the next great multiproduct biotechnology companies," said Will Lewis, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Insmed. "The next 18 months will be the most critical period in our history as we share clinical data from across our pipeline and set the stage for sustainable growth that will enable us to go from serving tens of thousands of patients with serious and rare diseases to potentially more than 1 million. Importantly, we are very encouraged by the data we reported today from our Phase 2 PK/PD study of brensocatib in patients with cystic fibrosis, which show clear dose-dependent inhibition of neutrophil serine proteases across all doses and support the mechanism of action of this highly innovative potential therapy."

Strategic Priorities:

Insmed is focused on the following near-term strategic priorities:

• Control expenses by leveraging our reliable revenue stream while carefully deploying capital from significant cash on hand to advance our four pillars, concentrating more than 80% of expenditures on our mid- to late-stage pipeline and commercial business
• Execute our mid- to late-stage clinical trials and produce topline clinical data readouts in the near term
• Advance commercial readiness activities as we prepare to potentially serve significantly more patients with serious and rare diseases
• Initiate new clinical trials from our early-stage pipeline, including gene therapies
• Continue to provide ARIKAYCE to appropriate patients with refractory nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease caused by Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC)

Progress and Anticipated Milestones by Pillar:

Pillar 1: ARIKAYCE

• Insmed continues to expect full-year 2022 global revenues for ARIKAYCE to increase 30% year over year from 2021. For the full year 2023, Insmed anticipates ARIKAYCE global revenues will be between $285 million and $300 million.
• Insmed is advancing the development of ARIKAYCE in a frontline setting of patients newly diagnosed with MAC lung disease, consisting of the postmarketing confirmatory ARISE and ENCORE trials. Enrollment is complete in ARISE and Insmed anticipates sharing topline efficacy and safety data from the study in the third quarter of 2023. The Company today reported a treatment discontinuation rate in ARISE of 15%, which is less than half the discontinuation rate observed in the pivotal CONVERT trial of ARIKAYCE in patients with refractory MAC lung disease.
• The Company continues to anticipate completing enrollment in ENCORE by the end of 2023.

Pillar 2: Brensocatib

• Enrollment remains on track in the Phase 3 ASPEN study, a global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of brensocatib in patients with bronchiectasis. Insmed continues to anticipate completing enrollment in this trial in the first quarter of 2023 and sharing topline data in the second quarter of 2024. The Company today reported that the blended, blinded rate of pulmonary exacerbations in the ASPEN trial is in line with expectations, ranging from 1.12 to 1.15 events per patient per year in the most recent three months of the study.
• Insmed today reported topline data from the Phase 2 pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic study of brensocatib in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Researchers observed a clear dose-dependent and exposure-dependent inhibition of blood neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) in patients treated with brensocatib across all doses in this study, consistent with the mechanism of action of brensocatib. Safety and tolerability were consistent with what was observed during the Phase 2 WILLOW study, with no significant drug-related findings. The Company concluded that an additional cohort evaluating a 65 mg dose of brensocatib is not needed in this patient population.
• As previously shared, Insmed plans to develop brensocatib in chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP), targeting severely affected patients. CRSsNP currently has no approved therapies and many patients do not respond to corticosteroids or endoscopic sinus surgery. Insmed anticipates moving brensocatib into Phase 2 development for CRSsNP by the middle of 2023.

Pillar 3: TPIP

• Insmed is currently enrolling two Phase 2 studies of treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP), one in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD) and the other in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).
• The Company anticipates sharing interim, blinded dose titration and safety and tolerability data from the PH-ILD study in the second half of 2023. Topline results from the PH-ILD study continue to be expected to be shared in the first half of 2024.

Pillar 4: Early-Stage Research

• Insmed is advancing an early-stage research portfolio encompassing a wide range of technologies and modalities, including gene therapy, artificial intelligence-driven protein engineering, and protein manufacturing.
• The Company today announced that the initial therapeutic areas of focus for this pillar include musculoskeletal, central nervous system (CNS), ocular, and rheumatologic diseases. The first investigational new drug (IND) filing is expected to be completed in the first half of 2023. Preclinical data in musculoskeletal and CNS indications are also expected in the first half of 2023 and clinical data from the first trial in a musculoskeletal disease are anticipated in the first half of 2024.
• Insmed anticipates having at least six IND applications filed or Phase 1 studies underway from this portfolio by the end of 2025.
• The Company plans to provide an update on its early-stage research, including a deeper look at preclinical data across several target diseases, during a research day in the second quarter of 2023.

Presentation at the 41^st Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference

Will Lewis, Chair and Chief Executive Officer of Insmed, will present at the 41^st Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on Monday, January 9, 2023, at 4:30 p.m. PT (7:30 p.m. ET). A live audio webcast of the presentation will be available on the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at www.insmed.com. A replay will also be archived for 90 days on the Investor Relations section of the site.

About ARIKAYCE

ARIKAYCE is approved in the United States as ARIKAYCE^® (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE^® Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion, and in Japan as ARIKAYCE^® inhalation 590 mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). Current international treatment guidelines recommend the use of ARIKAYCE for appropriate patients. ARIKAYCE is a novel, inhaled, once-daily formulation of amikacin, an established antibiotic that was historically administered intravenously and associated with severe toxicity to hearing, balance, and kidney function. Insmed's proprietary PULMOVANCE^® liposomal technology enables the delivery of amikacin directly to the lungs, where liposomal amikacin is taken up by lung macrophages where the infection resides, while limiting systemic exposure. ARIKAYCE is administered once daily using the Lamira^® Nebulizer System manufactured by PARI Pharma GmbH (PARI).

About PARI Pharma and the Lamira^® Nebulizer System

ARIKAYCE is delivered by a novel inhalation device, the Lamira^® Nebulizer System, developed by PARI. Lamira^® is a quiet, portable nebulizer that enables efficient aerosolization of ARIKAYCE via a vibrating, perforated membrane. Based on PARI's 100-year history working with aerosols, PARI is dedicated to advancing inhalation therapies by developing innovative delivery platforms to improve patient care.

About Brensocatib

Brensocatib is a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1 (DPP1) being developed by Insmed for the treatment of patients with bronchiectasis and other neutrophil-mediated diseases. DPP1 is an enzyme responsible for activating neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs), such as neutrophil elastase, in neutrophils when they are formed in the bone marrow. Neutrophils are the most common type of white blood cell and play an essential role in pathogen destruction and inflammatory mediation. In chronic inflammatory lung diseases, neutrophils accumulate in the airways and result in excessive active NSPs that cause lung destruction and inflammation. Brensocatib may decrease the damaging effects of inflammatory diseases such as bronchiectasis by inhibiting DPP1 and its activation of NSPs. Brensocatib is an investigational drug product that has not been approved for any indication in any jurisdiction.

About TPIP

Treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP) is a dry powder formulation of treprostinil palmitil, a treprostinil prodrug consisting of treprostinil linked by an ester bond to a 16-carbon chain. Developed entirely in Insmed's laboratories, TPIP is a potentially highly differentiated prostanoid being evaluated for the treatment of patients with PAH, PH-ILD, and other rare and serious pulmonary disorders. TPIP is administered in a capsule-based inhalation device. TPIP is an investigational drug product that has not been approved for any indication in any jurisdiction.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR ARIKAYCE IN THE U.S.

WARNING: RISK OF INCREASED RESPIRATORY ADVERSE REACTIONS

ARIKAYCE has been associated with an increased risk of respiratory adverse reactions, including hypersensitivity pneumonitis, hemoptysis, bronchospasm, and exacerbation of underlying pulmonary disease that have led to hospitalizations in some cases.

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (reported as allergic alveolitis, pneumonitis, interstitial lung disease, allergic reaction to ARIKAYCE) was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (3.1%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (0%). Most patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis discontinued treatment with ARIKAYCE and received treatment with corticosteroids. If hypersensitivity pneumonitis occurs, discontinue ARIKAYCE and manage patients as medically appropriate.

Hemoptysis has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Hemoptysis was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (17.9%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (12.5%). If hemoptysis occurs, manage patients as medically appropriate.

Bronchospasm has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Bronchospasm (reported as asthma, bronchial hyperreactivity, bronchospasm, dyspnea, dyspnea exertional, prolonged expiration, throat tightness, wheezing) was reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (28.7%) compared to patients treated with a background regimen alone (10.7%). If bronchospasm occurs during the use of ARIKAYCE, treat patients as medically appropriate.

Exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease (reported as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), infective exacerbation of COPD, infective exacerbation of bronchiectasis) have been reported at a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (14.8%) compared to patients treated with background regimen alone (9.8%). If exacerbations of underlying pulmonary disease occur during the use of ARIKAYCE, treat patients as medically appropriate.

Anaphylaxis and Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious and potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported in patients taking ARIKAYCE. Signs and symptoms include acute onset of skin and mucosal tissue hypersensitivity reactions (hives, itching, flushing, swollen lips/tongue/uvula), respiratory difficulty (shortness of breath, wheezing, stridor, cough), gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, crampy abdominal pain), and cardiovascular signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis (tachycardia, low blood pressure, syncope, incontinence, dizziness). Before therapy with ARIKAYCE is instituted, evaluate for previous hypersensitivity reactions to aminoglycosides. If anaphylaxis or a hypersensitivity reaction occurs, discontinue ARIKAYCE and institute appropriate supportive measures.

Ototoxicity has been reported with the use of ARIKAYCE in the clinical trials. Ototoxicity (including deafness, dizziness, presyncope, tinnitus, and vertigo) were reported with a higher frequency in patients treated with ARIKAYCE plus background regimen (17%) compared to patients treated with background regimen alone (9.8%). This was primarily driven by tinnitus (7.6% in ARIKAYCE plus background regimen vs 0.9% in the background regimen alone arm) and dizziness (6.3% in ARIKAYCE plus background regimen vs 2.7% in the background regimen alone arm). Closely monitor patients with known or suspected auditory or vestibular dysfunction during treatment with ARIKAYCE. If ototoxicity occurs, manage patients as medically appropriate, including potentially discontinuing ARIKAYCE.

Nephrotoxicity was observed during the clinical trials of ARIKAYCE in patients with MAC lung disease but not at a higher frequency than background regimen alone. Nephrotoxicity has been associated with the aminoglycosides. Close monitoring of patients with known or suspected renal dysfunction may be needed when prescribing ARIKAYCE.

Neuromuscular Blockade: Patients with neuromuscular disorders were not enrolled in ARIKAYCE clinical trials. Patients with known or suspected neuromuscular disorders, such as myasthenia gravis, should be closely monitored since aminoglycosides may aggravate muscle weakness by blocking the release of acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions.

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Aminoglycosides can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Aminoglycosides, including ARIKAYCE, may be associated with total, irreversible, bilateral congenital deafness in pediatric patients exposed in utero. Patients who use ARIKAYCE during pregnancy, or become pregnant while taking ARIKAYCE should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus.

Contraindications: ARIKAYCE is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any aminoglycoside.

Most Common Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in Trial 1 at an incidence ≥5% for patients using ARIKAYCE plus background regimen compared to patients treated with background regimen alone were dysphonia (47% vs 1%), cough (39% vs 17%), bronchospasm (29% vs 11%), hemoptysis (18% vs 13%), ototoxicity (17% vs 10%), upper airway irritation (17% vs 2%), musculoskeletal pain (17% vs 8%), fatigue and asthenia (16% vs 10%), exacerbation of underlying pulmonary disease (15% vs 10%), diarrhea (13% vs 5%), nausea (12% vs 4%), pneumonia (10% vs 8%), headache (10% vs 5%), pyrexia (7% vs 5%), vomiting (7% vs 4%), rash (6% vs 2%), decreased weight (6% vs 1%), change in sputum (5% vs 1%), and chest discomfort (5% vs 3%).

Drug Interactions: Avoid concomitant use of ARIKAYCE with medications associated with neurotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and ototoxicity. Some diuretics can enhance aminoglycoside toxicity by altering aminoglycoside concentrations in serum and tissue. Avoid concomitant use of ARIKAYCE with ethacrynic acid, furosemide, urea, or intravenous mannitol.

Overdosage: Adverse reactions specifically associated with overdose of ARIKAYCE have not been identified. Acute toxicity should be treated with immediate withdrawal of ARIKAYCE, and baseline tests of renal function should be undertaken. Hemodialysis may be helpful in removing amikacin from the body. In all cases of suspected overdosage, physicians should contact the Regional Poison Control Center for information about effective treatment.

U.S. INDICATION

LIMITED POPULATION: ARIKAYCE^® is indicated in adults, who have limited or no alternative treatment options, for the treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen in patients who do not achieve negative sputum cultures after a minimum of 6 consecutive months of a multidrug background regimen therapy.
