Note to Editors:
About Motif Bio
Motif Bio plc (AIM/NASDAQ: MTFB) is a clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel antibiotics
for hospitalised patients and designed to be effective against
serious and life-threatening infections caused by multi-drug
resistant Gram-positive bacteria, including MRSA. The Company's
lead product candidate is iclaprim. Following positive results from
two Phase 3 trials (REVIVE-1 and REVIVE-2), a New Drug Application
(NDA) has been submitted to the U.S. Food & Drug Administration
(FDA) for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure
infections (ABSSSI). More than 3.6 million patients with ABSSSI are
hospitalised annually in the U.S. It is estimated that up to 26% of
hospitalized ABSSSI patients have renal impairment.
The Company also plans to develop iclaprim for hospital acquired
bacterial pneumonia (HABP), including ventilator associated
bacterial pneumonia (VABP), as there is a high unmet need for new
therapies in this indication. A Phase 2 trial in patients with HABP
has been successfully completed and a Phase 3 trial is being
planned. Additionally, iclaprim has been granted orphan drug
designation by the FDA for the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus
lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis and is in
preclinical development for this indication.
Iclaprim has received Qualified Infectious Disease Product
(QIDP) designation from the FDA together with Fast Track status.
Upon acceptance by the FDA of an NDA, iclaprim will receive
Priority Review status and, if approved as a New Chemical Entity,
will be eligible for 10 years of market exclusivity in the U.S.
from the date of first approval, under the Generating Antibiotic
Incentives Now Act (the GAIN Act). In Europe, 10 years of market
exclusivity is anticipated.
