Dear Mr. Brunhofer:
This letter sets out the responses of Poniard Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) to the Staff’s comments relating to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, as set forth in your letter dated November 1, 2007, which are in addition to the Staff comments set forth in its letter dated August 22, 2007. Our response to the August 22, 2007 letter is contained in a letter to the Staff dated September 6, 2007.
For your convenience, we have included the Staff’s comments in italicized text, followed by the Company’s response.
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 13. Acquisition of Picoplatin, p. 70
1. Please clarify for us whether you licensed the rights to the picoplatin molecule or whether you licensed a formulation that incorporates the picoplatin molecule.
Response to Comment No. 1
The Company licensed the rights to the picoplatin compound (the “picoplatin compound”), or molecule, from AnorMed, Inc. (subsequently acquired by Genzyme Corporation) on April 2, 2004 and amended the license agreement on September 18, 2006. The chemical name for the picoplatin compound is [SP-4-3]-amminedichloro(2-methlyphyridime)platinum(II). The Company’s license also includes any formulation that contains the picoplatin compound as the active pharmaceutical ingredient. While AnorMed had developed other formulations incorporating picoplatin which are covered by the license, it was the intravenous formulation (the “IV formulation”) and associated know-how that was central to the Company’s purchase decision. In summary, the Company licensed both the picoplatin compound and any formulations that incorporated the picoplatin compound.
The Company has not performed any research to modify the chemical structure of the picoplatin compound since the date the license was acquired. The picoplatin compound is the active pharmaceutical ingredient for the IV formulation. The Company’s ongoing clinical trials in certain solid tumor cancer indications, which are discussed below, use the IV formulation that was developed prior to license acquisition. Accordingly, the Company uses the picoplatin compound and the IV formulation in the same forms that existed at the time it acquired its license. Further, the Company used the IV formulation as the basis upon which to assess the acquired asset’s alternative future uses because the IV formulation was central to the Company’s determination of value of the purchased asset and acquisition decision.
2. Please summarize for us the development history of picoplatin in chronological order. In this regard, please explain to us what preclinical and clinical studies were performed on the molecule prior to your acquisition. In addition, please explain to us the nature of all preclinical efforts (including any formulation activities and animal toxicity studies) and clinical trials you undertook on picoplatin since your acquisition of the rights to the molecule.
Response to Comment No. 2
(a) A summary of the development activities pertaining to picoplatin prior to the Company’s acquisition of its picoplatin license is provided in Exhibit A, which is attached to this letter. The Exhibit lists preclinical and clinical studies that were conducted prior to the Company’s acquisition of its picoplatin license. These studies related to both the picoplatin compound and to the IV formulation.
(b) Subsequent to the Company’s acquisition of its picoplatin license, it has not performed any toxicity studies or studies to develop a new intravenous formulation for picoplatin. Also, it has not engaged in the discovery of a new chemical compound by modifying the picoplatin chemical structure. Subsequent to the execution date of the license agreement, the Company has used the IV formulation, as developed previously, for its current ongoing clinical studies in three different solid tumor cancers, small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer and colorectal cancer, as summarized below:
· Phase 2 study in small cell lung cancer, initiated in 2005
Trial of intravenous picoplatin in small cell lung cancer designed to confirm and expand data supporting the efficacy of picoplatin as a single agent in the treatment of patients with platinum-refractory or -resistant small cell lung cancer. (A smaller Phase 2 study in small cell lung cancer was performed prior to the Company’s acquisition of picoplatin by AnorMed.)
· Phase 1/2 study in metastatic colorectal cancer, initiated in 2006
Trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety, including neuropathy, of intravenous picoplatin in combination with 5-FU and leucovorin, FOLPI versus FOLFOX for the first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). The objective of this proof-of-concept trial is to demonstrate that picoplatin can be used as a first-line chemotherapeutic agent with a favorable toxicity profile compared to oxaliplatin.
· Phase 1/2 study in hormone refractory prostate cancer, initiated in 2006
Phase 1 trial of intravenous picoplatin in chemotherapy-naïve hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) patients explored increasing doses of picoplatin in combination with docetaxel and prednisone. Previous safety data were confirmed, showing that the picoplatin and docetaxel combination was well tolerated with no evidence of the neurotoxicity or kidney toxicity observed with other platinum-based chemotherapies in use for other solid tumors.
Phase 2 trial of intravenous picoplatin in combination with docetaxel (Taxotere®) and prednisone in patients with metastatic HRPC is designed to demonstrate that picoplatin improves efficacy when combined with the recommended dose of docetaxel and prednisone in the first-line setting. In addition to safety, the trial will evaluate overall survival, prostate specific antigen (PSA) response, tumor response, time to progression and progression free survival.
· Pivotal Phase 3 study in small cell lung cancer, initiated in 2007
Trial of intravenous picoplatin conducted under a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to evaluate overall survival as the primary endpoint. Subjects of the trial are patients who are refractory to, or who have progressed within six months of completing, treatment with first-line platinum-containing chemotherapy (cisplatin or carboplatin).
3. Please elaborate on your conclusion that picoplatin required no future development as a molecule at the time of license acquisition. In this regard:
(a) Please explain to us why the molecule and not the formulation that must be approved by the FDA is the appropriate level upon which to perform your alternative future use assessment.
(b) Please explain to us why your formulation efforts and other preclinical studies, if any, and the necessity to perform clinical trials does not violate the concept in paragraph 3.2.07(b) of the Practice Aid. This provision indicates that the future use of the asset should not be contingent on further development of the asset subsequent to the acquisition.
Response to Comment No. 3
The Company has not conducted any research to identify new chemical entities arising from the picoplatin compound, or molecule, nor has it changed the IV formulation from that which existed at the point of acquisition. Accordingly, neither the picoplatin compound nor the IV formulation has been changed since acquisition. Further, in response to the points of your comment:
(a) The Company confirms that it is the IV formulation, together with the picoplatin compound as the active pharmaceutical ingredient, that must be approved by the FDA upon the submission of a NDA (New Drug Application) by the Company and that the Company performed its alternative use assessment on the IV formulation. The Company agrees that the picoplatin IV formulation is the appropriate level at which to assess alternative future uses. The Company’s conclusion at the time of acquisition, as evidenced by its subsequent clinical activities, was that the intravenous picoplatin formulation could be used in other solid tumor cancer indications, and, therefore, had alternative future uses. The Company apologizes for any confusion that it may have caused by its reference to the word “molecule” in its first response letter dated September 6, 2007.
(b) As your comment points out, paragraph 3.2.07(b) of the Practice Aid states that alternative future use of the asset should “not be contingent on
further development of the asset subsequent to the acquisition date (that is, the asset can be used in the alternative manner in the condition in which it existed at the acquisition date.)” Consistent with this requirement, the Company has used the IV formulation in the same condition without alteration as of the point of acquisition for its ongoing, solid tumor cancer clinical trials listed above.
Further, the Company, in its specific circumstances, interprets “alternative future use” as the use of the asset in future human clinical trials in the treatment of different cancer indications. The Practice Aid expands upon this point in paragraph 3.2.10(a) by stating that an alternative future use exists when “it is reasonably expected that the combined enterprise will use the intangible asset being acquired in its current condition in another currently identifiable R&D project to be commenced at a future date (for example, the acquired intangible asset represents base [or core] technology that is reasonably expected to be used in future R&D projects).” Paragraph 3.2.10(a) concludes by noting that such circumstances suggest that the acquired intangible asset has alternative future uses.
At the point of acquisition, the Company planned to use the IV formulation of picoplatin in a Phase II study of patients with small cell lung cancer and reasonably expected that the IV formulation could be used in additional, currently identifiable R&D projects in the form of clinical trials for other solid tumor cancer indications, such as prostate and colorectal cancer. The Company believes that these planned alternative uses were reasonable because, at the time of the Company’s acquisition of picoplatin, other platinum-based chemotherapeutics, such as carboplatin, cisplatin and oxaliplatin, had been approved by the FDA for treatment of a variety of solid tumor cancers, including ovarian, testicular, bladder and colorectal cancers. Intravenous picoplatin is a new generation platinum-based chemotherapeutic and could potentially be differentiated from carboplatin, cisplatin and oxaliplatin because it is designed to overcome resistance associated with platinum-based therapies and to have an improved safety profile compared to existing platinum-based chemotherapies. Finally, the Company reasonably anticipated using the picoplatin intravenous formulation in the state in which it was acquired. This intention is evidenced by the Company’s subsequent behavior in that it has used the IV formulation unchanged in two clinical trials (prostate and colorectal), which are in addition to small cell lung cancer.
In summary, the Company has concluded that, given the facts and circumstances at the time of its acquisition of its license to the picoplatin compound and IV formulation, the proper accounting treatment of its payments of
$12.0 million to AnorMed was as an asset due to the existence of alternative future uses because:
· the Company reasonably expected to use the IV formulation in its acquired condition in clinical trials for other solid tumor cancer indications,
· the clinical trials in which the Company has used the IV formulation constitute then currently identifiable R&D projects to be commenced at a future date as per paragraph 3.2.10(a) of the AICPA Practice Aid,
· although they cannot be disclosed at this time, the Company has identified additional solid tumor cancer indications as potential candidates for the use of clinical trials, and
· the Company subsequently used the IV formulation in its ongoing clinical trials in the same state and condition as when it acquired the asset.
As requested, the Company acknowledges that:
· the Company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing;
· staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and
· the Company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.
If you have any further comments or questions, please contact the undersigned at (650) 583-5727.
Very truly yours,
