IPSCIO Record ID: 227277
Phenoptinâ„¢ is a proprietary oral form of tetrahydrobiopterin (6R-BH4), for the treatment of moderate to mild forms of phenylketonuria (PKU). PKU is a genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of an enzyme, phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), which is required for the metabolism of phenylalanine (Phe), an amino acid found in most protein-containing foods.
Phenylketonuria (commonly known as PKU) is a rare inherited disorder that increases the levels of a substance called phenylalanine in the blood. Phenylalanine is a building block of proteins (an amino acid) that is obtained through the diet. It is found in all proteins and in some artificial sweeteners. PKU is caused by a defect in the gene that helps create the enzyme needed to break down phenylalanine.

– to develop the Drug Product in the Territory for the Other Field, including conducting any development necessary to obtain Regulatory Approval in any of the countries in the Territory for Other Field;
– to manufacture and/or have manufactured the Drug Substance and the Drug Product; and
– to use, promote, offer to sell, sell, have sold, distribute, import, and export the Drug Product in the Territory for the Other Field.
It is expressly understood that Licensees right to sublicense shall be subject to Licensors prior written consent.
Phenoptin (sapropterin hydrochloride) is an investigational oral enzyme co-factor for the treatment of the genetic condition phenylketonuria.
Phenylketonuria (commonly known as PKU) is an inherited disorder that increases the levels of a substance called phenylalanine in the blood. Phenylalanine is a building block of proteins (an amino acid) that is obtained through the diet. It is found in all proteins and in some artificial sweeteners. If PKU is not treated, phenylalanine can build up to harmful levels in the body, causing intellectual disability and other serious health problems.
The most severe form of this disorder is known as classic PKU. Infants with classic PKU appear normal until they are a few months old. Without treatment, these children develop permanent intellectual disability. Seizures, delayed development, behavioral problems, and psychiatric disorders are also common.

The Other Field means all therapeutic, diagnostic and preventative uses of Drug Product or Drug Substance that are not Orphan Drugs applied to biochemical single gene defects (i.e., everything other than the Field as defined in a prior license agreement).

Licensee expressly acknowledges that the license granted includes a sublicense of certain rights licensed to Licensor pursuant to the Existing Third Party Agreements, and any sublicense of such rights must comply with the requirements set forth in the respective Existing Third Party Agreements regarding sublicenses granted pursuant to such Existing Third Party Agreement.
The Licensed Product means any product incorporating Phenoptin or Phenylase as an active pharmaceutical ingredient, either alone or with one or more other pharmaceutical ingredients, including all additions, mutations, post-translational modifications (e.g., PEGylation), rearrangements, and other modifications thereto and any other pharmaceutical product that the manufacture, use, sale, offer to sell or import thereof, would infringe one or more Patent Claims under any Patents in or to any Licensor IP; or the research, development, formulation, composition or manufacture of which was performed with the use of or incorporates any Licensor IP; or the development of which was in part funded by Licensor under this Agreement. The term Licensed Product shall include Supplied Product.
Phenoptin means tetrahydrobiopterin (6R-BH4). Phenylase means phenylalanine ammonia lyase.
Licensors IP includes patents for Methods and Compositions for the Treatment of Phenylketonuria, Crystalline Forms of (6R)-L-erythro-tetrahydrtobiopterin dihydrochloride and Methods for Preparing Tetrahydrobiopterin, and others.
Phenylketonuria also called PKU, is a rare inherited disorder that causes an amino acid called phenylalanine to build up in the body. PKU is caused by a defect in the gene that helps create the enzyme needed to break down phenylalanine.
Without the enzyme necessary to process phenylalanine, a dangerous buildup can develop when a person with PKU eats foods that contain protein or eats aspartame, an artificial sweetener. This can eventually lead to serious health problems.
IPSCIO Record ID: 3467
Researchers have demonstrated that a deficiency of BH4 can disrupt NO synthesis, resulting in a loss of normal endothelial NO production. This loss of endothelial NO production, commonly referred to as endothelial dysfunction, has been associated with many cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension, diabetic vascular disease, peripheral arterial disease, coronary arterial disease and pulmonary hypertension, and has been shown to be a strong predictor of cardiovascular adverse events in a number of clinical studies.
IPSCIO Record ID: 260419
The Product shall mean a gene therapy product containing a recombinant virus with a nucleic acid coding for a lipoprotein lipase (LPL) developed, used and/or commercialized by or for Licensee or its affiliates where the activity in relation to such product occurs in one of the countries of the Territory and is covered in whole or in part by a Valid Claim within the Patents in that country.
Lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD) is a rare monogenic disorder of triglyceride metabolism. Deficiency of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase results in pronounced accumulation of triglycerides in the plasma. Specifically, the clearance of chylomicrons is impaired. Chylomicrons, fatty droplets that transport fat in the form of triglyceride, appear in the bloodstream shortly after the ingestion of dietary fat. Chylomicrons are normally cleared from the body after a period of fasting. Lipoprotein lipase recognizes a protein in chylomicrons called apolipoprotein C2, and is then activated to metabolize and clear out triglycerides. However, deficiency or lack of lipoprotein lipase results in the accumulation of chylomicrons and triglycerides in the body. High triglyceride levels are present from infancy and childhood, and various associated symptoms may occur. Some patients remain undiagnosed until adulthood. LPLD is caused by mutations in the LPL gene and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

Glybera is used to treat adults with lipoprotein lipase deficiency who have severe or multiple attacks of pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) despite maintaining a low-fat diet. This is a type of medicine that works by delivering genes into the body.
