The context is that CDE is too close to the clinic, and doesn’t allow high level discussion (and too far after PE), the idea was to have PDE (a) ~1y before IND to allow time for changes (2) before CS to influence CS

Portfolio Entry (PE)Candidate Selection (CS)
Definition
  • Strategy towards CS is clarified
  • Target indication identified
· Clinical candidate is identified with sound confidence in indication, mechanism, translation, safety, execution, and asset itself. Takeda is ready to file IND and invest for clinical studies.
Points to consider
  • The concept is clear and based on ground evidence.
  • The go/no-go decision criteria is clear along with the key milestones.
  • Anticipated issues/risks/bottlenecks towards CS are identified.
  • There is a roadmap to collect enough information to create target product profile (TPP).
  • Commitments at PE is met or not
  • Candidate Profile declared at PE is achieved or not
  • Issues/highlighted risks/bottlenecks identified at PE are resolved or not
  • Commitments towards next milestone is clarified
  • Issues/risks/bottlenecks towards next milestone is identified
Evidence in mechanism & pharmacology
  • Rationale for exploring MOA is clarified
  • in vitro/in vivo pharmacological validation is established with a tool molecule
  • Review of the data (on the program and candidate molecule) that validates the hypothesis that the target can be drugged in an appropriate model / test system, including downstream effects / markers / models
  • Assessment of genetic and genomic evidence supporting the target
  • Update on the evolving translation / biomarker / early clinical plan, including timeline of
