Deerfield, Ill., October 28, 2015 –Takeda Pharmaceuticals U.S.A., Inc. (“Takeda”), today announced that Entyvio® (vedolizumab) has been nominated for the 2015 Prix Galien USA Award in the Best Biotechnology Product category. In May 2014, Entyvio was approved by the United States (U.S.) Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn’s disease (CD). “Entyvio has been an important treatment option for patients living with UC and CD,” explained Asit Parikh, M.D., Ph.D., Head, Gastroenterology Therapeutic Area Unit, Takeda. “On behalf of Takeda, we are honored to receive this nomination for Entyvio, and this recognition is representative of our commitment to advancing research in gastroenterology.” The Prix Galien USA Award recognizes the technical, scientific and clinical research skills and achievements necessary to develop innovative medicines and devices. It is considered the biomedical industry’s highest accolade. Entyvio is a humanized monoclonal antibody that binds to the human alpha4beta7 integrin. It is the only approved biologic treatment developed and indicated specifically for UC and CD. A first in the biologic category, Entyvio also received simultaneous approval for both UC and CD in the U.S., and near simultaneous approval by the FDA and European Commission in May, 2014. About Entyvio® (vedolizumab) Entyvio, an integrin receptor antagonist, is a humanized monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the alpha4beta7 integrin and blocks the interaction of alpha4beta7 integrin with mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) and inhibits the migration of memory T-lymphocytes across the endothelium into inflamed gastrointestinal parenchymal tissue. Entyvio does not bind to or inhibit function of the alpha4beta1 and alpha E beta 7 integrins and does not antagonize the interaction of alpha4 integrins with vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). The alpha4beta7 integrin is expressed on the surface of a discrete subset of memory T-lymphocytes that preferentially migrate into the gastrointestinal tract. MAdCAM-1 is mainly expressed on gut endothelial cells and plays a critical role in the homing of T-lymphocytes to gut lymph tissue. The interaction of the alpha4beta7 integrin with MAdCAM-1 has been implicated as an important contributor to the chronic inflammation that is a hallmark of ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. INDICATIONS: ENTYVIO (vedolizumab) Adult Ulcerative Colitis (UC) ENTYVIO (vedolizumab) is indicated in adult patients with moderately to severely active UC who have had an inadequate response with, lost response to, or were intolerant to a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blocker or immunomodulator; or had an inadequate response with, were intolerant to, or demonstrated dependence on corticosteroids for inducing and maintaining clinical response, inducing and maintaining clinical remission, improving endoscopic appearance of the mucosa, and achieving corticosteroid-free remission. Adult Crohn’s Disease (CD) ENTYVIO (vedolizumab) is indicated in adult patients with moderately to severely active CD who have had an inadequate response with, lost response to, or were intolerant to a TNF blocker or immunomodulator; or had an inadequate response with, were intolerant to, or demonstrated dependence on corticosteroids for achieving clinical response, achieving clinical remission, and achieving corticosteroid‐free remission. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION Please see the accompanying full Prescribing Information including Medication Guide for ENTYVIO. More information is available at www.ENTYVIOHCP.com and www.ENTYVIO.com About Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease Ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) are marked by inflammation in the lining of the gastrointestinal tract. UC impacts the large intestine only, which includes the colon and the rectum, while CD can impact any part of the digestive tract, and predominantly affects the ileum. There is no known cause for UC and CD, although many researchers believe that the interaction between genes, the body’s immune system, and environmental factors may play a role.
