João GonçalvesFaculty of PharmacyUniversity of LisbonLisbon, PortugalPaolo CalicetiDepartment of Pharmaceutical and Pharmacological SciencesUniversity of PadovaPadova, ItalyWhat Is PEGylation and Why Is It Important?We will begin by examining the clinical uses of therapeutic proteins, and their applications in healthcare. Next, we will discuss the inherent limitations of therapeutic proteins, including challenges such as pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles, protein aggregation during storage, and potential immune responses. The session will then delve into the process of PEGylation, where polyethylene glycol (PEG) is conjugated to functional amino acid groups on the protein surface. This modification may enhance the properties of therapeutic proteins, offering advantages in stability, half-life, and immunogenicity.Biopharmaceutical and Immunological Properties of PEGylated ProteinsWe will explore the biopharmaceutical and immunological properties of PEGylated proteins, focusing on how their unique structure and composition impact their function. We will discuss how each PEGylated protein has distinct properties based on PEG architecture, molecular weight and degree of conjugation that cannot be generalized across different pegylated molecules, highlighting the variability in pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics such as half-life, absorption, distribution, and elimination. These factors can significantly influence clinical outcomes, including dosing intervals and overall therapeutic effectiveness. We will also address the potential clinical advantages and limitations of PEGylation, with real-world examples to illustrate how these proteins are used in practice.Immunogenicity Considerations of PEGylated ProteinsWe will explore the immunogenicity of PEGylated proteins, examining both the potential benefits and risks associated with PEG modification. While PEGylation can trigger immune responses against PEG itself or the PEGylated protein, it can also help mask epitopes and reduce anti-drug antibodies formation. Drug- and patient-related factors that influence immunogenicity risk will also be covered, along with the prevalence and impact of pre-existing anti-drug antibodies (ADAs).We will discuss the potential clinical consequences of immune reactions to PEG or PEGylated proteins, and how the risk of such responses can vary depending on the unique properties of each PEGylated protein. The session will also address strategies to mitigate anti-PEG immunogenicity, as well as approaches for monitoring immunogenicity across different stages of drug development—from preclinical studies to post-marketing surveillance. Additionally, we will explore tools that may help predict therapeutic responses to PEGylated proteins, touching on potential areas for future research.Discussion and ConclusionBy the end of the session, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of:How PEGylation represents a major technological advancement in the development and optimization of therapeutic proteins.How PEGylation affects both the biopharmaceutical properties and clinical applications of therapeutic proteinsImmunogenicity in the context of PEGylated proteins and the strategies used to manage and predict immune responses.The role of PEGylation in therapeutic outcomes and the future opportunities for innovation in this field.

Joining Jill and Doron on the 34th episode of the podcast, the sixteenth of our second season, to tell us his story is esteemed British scientist Professor Raymond Dwek, who attended Carmel College from 1949 to ‘60, accompanied by his older brother Joe.  Both brothers would go on to become governors of Carmel. Raymond studied Chemistry at Manchester University and completed his DPhil at Oxford University.  During this time, both Raymond and his wife Sandra also taught at Carmel.  He became Professor of Glycobiology, a field he was instrumental in creating, in the Department of Biochemistry at Oxford, which he headed for several years.  He is an emeritus fellow of Exeter College at Oxford and emeritus director of the Oxford Glycobiology Institute, which he founded.  The institute gave rise to a company that became publicly listed and developed a drug - eventually approved worldwide - for Gaucher disease, a rare, genetic metabolic disorder with a much enhanced incidence among Ashkenazi Jews.  A second company that arose from the institute was taken over by United Therapeutics, a $15 billion NASDAQ-listed US biotech company, of which Raymond is a Director.  He has authored several scientific volumes and over 600 published papers, has formally advised scientific institutions in Israel, the United States and China, was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire for services to scientific collaboration between the United Kingdom and Israel, and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.  He and Sandra live in Oxford, and have four children, including a daughter, Deborah, who also attended Carmel. Hear Raymond talk about the Dwek dynasty, an unexpected guest at a midnight feast, the best teacher he ever knew, his brother Joe's ‘special diet', building Ben Gurion University from a camel market, his CBE award by Princess Anne, and the secret to a long and happy marriage. Thank you, Professor Raymond Dwek, for turning us again to Carmel days!   Dedication: at Raymond's request, this episode is dedicated to his daughter Deborah, his brother Joe, and Joe's son Jonathan, all of whom went to Carmel, along with all the other members of the Dwek family that did so too.    Personal mentions in this episode: Rabbi Dr. Kopul Rosen (Headmaster) Bella Rosen (Co-founder) Rabbi Jeremy Rosen (Headmaster) Romney Coles (Chemistry) Dr. David Stamler (Headmaster) John Bunney (Physics) Ron Evans (Mathematics) Murray Roston (English & Hebrew) Ted Fields (Rowing) Malcolm Shifrin (Librarian) Dr. Alexander Tobias (Jewish Studies) Meir Gertner (Jewish Studies) Philip Skelker (Headmaster) Joe Dwek Deborah Dwek David Sheldon Jerrold Roston Jonathan Dwek   Feel free to leave a comment letting us know what you liked about this episode, and rate us on your favorite podcast platform

In this first part of our four-part series on Fabry disease, we feature William Burns, MD, a biochemical geneticist at Greenwood Genetic Center in Greenwood, South Carolina. Dr. Burns summarizes this rare disease, including current management strategies.Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disorder, meaning that a glycosphingolipid called GL-3 accumulates in the lysosomes, causing tissue damage; many cell types are affected.The disease is caused by mutations in the GLA gene, resulting in nonfunctional or dysfunctional alpha-galactosidase A, a lysosomal enzyme. The mutations can be inherited, so multiple family members can have the disease.Fabry disease is a multisystemic disease, affecting many organs, including the heart, kidney and nervous system, resulting in life-threatening complications and a reduced life expectancy. Early signs of the disease start in childhood and adolescence, but it is a progressive, lifelong condition.Newborn screening has now been performed in several countries, yielding a prevalence ranging from 1 in 1,368 to 1 in 8,882 births.

This is the second of a three-part series focusing on Fabry disease. In this episode, we talk with Nicola Longo, MD, Chief of the Division of Medical Genetics at the University of Utah, Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine in Salt Lake City. Dr. Longo discusses Fabry disease, including the progression of the disease and personalized medicine.Fabry disease is an inherited disorder that results from the buildup of globotriaosylceramide or GL-3. The disorder affects many parts of the body. Signs and symptoms may include acroparesthesias, angiokeratomas, hypohidrosis, corneal opacity, and hearing loss. Potentially severe complications can include progressive kidney damage, heart attack, and stroke. Fabry disease is caused by mutations in the GLA gene and is inherited in an X-linked manner. Treatment may include enzyme replacement therapy (ERT); pain medications, ACE inhibitors; and chronic hemodialysis or renal transplantation for end stage renal disease.

In this episode of our series focused on Fabry disease, we feature Maya Kineen, a patient and advocate with this rare disorder.Fabry disease is an inherited disorder that results from the buildup of a particular type of fat, called globotriaosylceramide, in the body's cells. Beginning in childhood, this buildup causes signs and symptoms that affect many parts of the body. Characteristic features of Fabry disease include episodes of pain, particularly in the hands and feet (acroparesthesias); clusters of small, dark red spots on the skin called angiokeratomas; a decreased ability to sweat (hypohidrosis); cloudiness of the front part of the eye (corneal opacity); problems with the gastrointestinal system; ringing in the ears (tinnitus); and hearing loss. Fabry disease also involves potentially life-threatening complications such as progressive kidney damage, heart attack, and stroke. Some affected individuals have milder forms of the disorder that appear later in life and affect only the heart or kidneys.

Presque 90% des humains se servent de leur main droite pour écrire, et 10% de leur main gauche. Seul un très petit pourcentage est capable d'écrire indifféremment avec l'une ou l'autre main. Mais cette latéralité souvent très marquée s'applique-t-elle de la même façon aux membres inférieurs ?Compréhension de la latéralitéLe terme de latéralité désigne la tendance d'un individu à favoriser un côté de son corps pour les actions quotidiennes. Elle concerne bien sûr les mains, mais aussi d'autres parties de l'organisme comme les pieds, les yeux et les oreilles. Les préférences entre la droite ou la gauche s'étendent généralement à l'intégralité du corps. Par exemple, une personne qui écrit de la main droite préfèrera souvent taper dans un ballon avec son pied droit. Une personne gauchère sera plus à l'aise pour manipuler des objets ou faire du sport en comptant sur sa main et son pied gauche. Quelques rares individus, de façon naturelle ou avec de l'entrainement, utilisent leurs membres avec la même facilité d'un côté ou de l'autre.La dominance croiséeLa dominance croisée se produit lorsque la main préférée ne correspond pas au pied préféré. Un gaucher qui tient mieux en équilibre sur son pied droit ou un droitier capable de sauter plus haut avec sa jambe gauche expriment cette caractéristique unique.Dans de nombreux sports, la dominance croisée influence la manière dont le joueur interagit. L'approche du jeu et de la technique doivent être modulées pour permettre à l'individu d'exploiter au mieux ses capacités. En surf et en skateboard, par exemple, la préférence de pied influence la position sur la planche. En cas de dominance croisée, le sportif doit adopter une posture hybride.Les musiciens sont aussi concernés par les conséquences de cette caractéristique. Un guitariste droitier de la main et gaucher du pied devra ainsi adapter la position de sa pédale d'effet pour pouvoir gérer au mieux la prestation scénique.Souvent, les individus avec une dominance croisée développent des stratégies créatives pour s'adapter à un monde principalement conçu pour les droitiers exclusifs. Cela se manifeste dans l'aménagement de l'espace de travail, dans le développement de techniques artistiques uniques, ou dans le choix de matériel personnalisable.Ce qui produit la dominance croiséeCe phénomène dispose d'une composante génétique. La latéralité est effectivement influencée par des facteurs héréditaires. Le cerveau joue aussi un rôle crucial dans la détermination des préférences de côtés. La dominance d'un hémisphère sur l'autre pour certaines tâches peut alors influencer les choix manuels ou pédestres.L'environnement dans lequel l'enfant grandit et les expériences subies influencent considérablement la latéralité. En fonction des jouets et outils utilisés, des activités physiques pratiquées et des interactions avec les adultes, l'enfant va développer certaines préférences lors de la manipulation d'objets.Enfin, l'éducation peut également favoriser l'usage de la main droite chez un enfant gaucher, qui conservera alors ses préférences au niveau des pieds tout en ayant appris à écrire comme un droitier.

Protein misfolding is an underlying issue for many diseases, including lysosomal storage disorders and some neurodegenerative conditions. When a protein misfolds, its three-dimensional structure is disrupted, and it can no longer function properly. Gain Therapeutics is using its AI-driven discovery platform to identify novel targets to fuel a pipeline of therapies that focus on enzymes involved in rare genetic diseases, but that also share genetic profiles with more prevalent ones. We spoke to Matthias Alder, CEO of Gain Therapeutics, about the role protein misfolding plays in a range of diseases, Gain's platform technology, and its lead experimental therapy in development to treat Gaucher disease.

Fetal geneticist Dr. Tamar Goldwaser and OB-GYN Dr. Nathan Fox dive into the nuances of carrier screening and why people might hesitate to receive them. Although uncommon, secondary findings are possible and a parent might find something unexpected in their own DNA from a genetic test. Additionally, the results of a genetic test could lead to difficult decisions like whether to consider IVF or freezing your eggs. In this podcast, they discuss the implications and possible next steps to consider for diseases like Fragile X Syndrome, Fabry disease, hemophilia, Gaucher disease, and other genetic mutations.

Wholly Veggie co-founders John Bonnell and David Gaucher knew their brand of plant-based frozen foods needed a new look. But when they saw the design firm's proposed revamp, it was such a departure from the original version that it made them apprehensive and uncomfortable. And, as they told us, that's why it worked. Wholly Veggie, which debuted in its home market of Canada in 2017, now offers a range of vegan frozen entrees and snacks, including Thai curry, cauliflower wings and mozzarella-style sticks. Bonnell and Gaucher envisioned the brand as one that could attract interest and democratize access to plant-based foods via familiar flavors and dishes. In 2020, Target began carrying Wholly Veggie at all of its U.S. stores and the brand seemed on its way to becoming a household name. Nevertheless, Bonnell and Gaucher sensed that it could just as easily turn into an also-ran in an increasingly saturated market for plant-based frozen meals. Wholly Veggie had to be bold, differentiated and, most importantly, stand for something beyond the food itself. In its fun, energetic and bright redesign, Wholly Veggie has been embraced by existing and new retailers. The brand is carried by 6,500 stores across the U.S. and Canada, including Walmart, Whole Foods, Sprouts, Fresh Thyme, Wegmans, Sobeys and Loblaws. In this episode, Bonnell and Gaucher spoke about their process for creating a plant-based brand with broad appeal, their realization that Wholly Veggie's package design needed an overhaul, how a comprehensive brand brief enabled them to better understand their products' value to retailers and consumers, and the impact of the brand revamp. They also discussed their adherence to business fundamentals, a challenging environment for private capital and how the most commonly consumed ingredients factor into their innovation strategy. Show notes: 0:45: John Bonnell & David Gaucher, Co-Founders, Wholly Veggie – Bonnell and Gaucher met with Taste Radio editor Ray Latif at BevNET headquarters where the entrepreneurs chatted about traveling from Toronto to Boston and local store visits before they discussed Wholly Veggie's most recent – and hilarious – ad campaign. They also spoke about their respective backgrounds and the brand's origins, why the brand name was the only thing not on the table during the revamp process, how they evaluate taste as compared to other plant-based products and how fun and laughter supports their primary goal of championing vegetables. Later, they discussed early mistakes and what they learned from each, their warning that “the route to market is filled with booby traps” and how conversations with investors have changed over the years.  Brands in this episode: Wholly Veggie, Green Giant, Birds Eye

Advances in medicine have made possible better treatments for widespread, familiar human illnesses like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. Yet there are thousands of much less common diseases, most of genetic origin, each classed as rare because it afflicts only a small number of people. These patient groups were long ignored by a pharmaceutical industry that judged them too small to provide a return on the investment needed to develop an effective remedy. Yet these orphaned diseases collectively caused misery and expense, often far greater than did more common ailments, for tens of millions of individuals and their families. Forty years ago, a revolution that transformed the prospects of patients with rare diseases was lit by three sparks. The passage of the 1983 U.S. Orphan Drug Act resulted from public pressure brought by rare disease patients, their families, and advocates. The AIDS epidemic triggered additional activism, compounded when patients with the rare disease hemophilia became HIV-positive after infusion of tainted blood products. And the third spark was the emergence in the early 1980s of biotechnology companies like Genentech, Amgen, and Biogen employing then-new genetic engineering instead of conventional approaches to pharmaceutical development. Soon after, Genzyme became the first company to develop a treatment for a rare genetic disorder, Gaucher disease, which would come to transform the industry. Jim Geraghty has been a passionate participant in the orphan drug revolution since its inception--a leader in the field as a strategy consultant, biotechnology executive, and venture entrepreneur. Inside the Orphan Drug Revolution: The Promise of Patient-Centered Biotechnology (Cold Springs Harbor Lab Press, 2022) is in part a history, with eyewitness accounts of advances as they occurred and portraits of the pioneering scientists and physicians, tireless activists, and visionary business leaders who made the revolution happen. And it tells deeply personal stories of patients and parents willing to risk new, untried therapies. But Geraghty also uses his exceptional experience and vantage point to look forward to the immense promise of the newest technologies like gene therapy and gene editing for the treatment of patients today and tomorrow. He concludes with thoughtful consideration of important questions. Why do drugs to treat orphan diseases cost so much? How can we ensure they are affordable? How can their effectiveness be responsibly assessed? And how can access to them be expanded internationally? This book graphically and poignantly illustrates how far an important healthcare revolution has come and reminds us that if not nurtured, it could end before its immense promise has been fulfilled.

As we continue our focus on rare diseases on Raise the Line, we're delighted to be joined by Dr. Alaa Hamed, Global Head of Medical Affairs, Rare Diseases at Sanofi, one of the leading pharmaceutical companies in the world. Although most well known for their focus on lysosomal storage disorders including Gaucher and Pompe disease, Dr. Hamed and his team at Sanofi are also working in adjacent disease spaces depending on the systems affected. “For example, the lysosome in Pompe disease affects the neuromuscular tissues, so we have a neuromuscular disorder interest as well.” In their discussion, Dr. Hamed and host Shiv Gaglani also touch on the efforts Sanofi is making to shorten the diagnostic odyssey for rare disease patients, including building more disease awareness and greater global infrastructure.  “From the inception, we thought that having universal access is a key part of the rare disease equation.” You'll also learn about the challenges of drug development, the importance of maintaining policy incentives to focus on rare diseases, and where innovation is needed most to advance outcomes for patients. Mentioned in this episode: https://www.sanofi.com/

She is the co-founder and Chief Clinical Officer of the Neurobehavioral Institute, where she specializes in treating Severe Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders, and Autism Spectrum Disorders. Dr. Moritz is also a rare mom, with two of her three children having Gaucher disease, a rare genetic disorder causing organ inflammation and dysfunction. Even more, Dr. Moritz is an undiagnosed patient herself. In 2010, she underwent a routine endoscopy and woke up with an unknown syndrome. After seeing doctors all over the country at various facilities, she is still undiagnosed. In her search for help, she has encountered a world of undiagnosed patients and families that are equally as desperate for answers. The glaring need for awareness of undiagnosed illnesses has inspired her to create a documentary film called Undiagnosed, based on the stories of the patients, their doctors, and the medical system that struggles to serve them.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS   Katia's entry into the world of rare diseases with her two children who have Gaucher disease Her personal experience navigating a diagnostic odyssey with her undiagnosed illness The role mental health plays in navigating a rare or undiagnosed disease Advice for mothers who have experienced the impact of caregiving on their mental health and what they can do to take care of their mental and emotional well-being  What Katia's learned being the creator and co-director of Undiagnosed, a film about undiagnosed patients The meaningful work she's doing to shine a light on undiagnosed illnesses and support the undiagnosed community  Advice and learnings for other mothers navigating a rare disease or undiagnosed disease with their children LINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED   Dr. Katia Moritz https://www.instagram.com/drkatiamoritz/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiamoritz/   Neurobehavioral Institute https://www.linkedin.com/company/nbiweston/ https://www.facebook.com/nbiweston https://www.instagram.com/nbiweston/   Undiagnosed Film https://undiagnosedfilm.com/   CONNECT WITH NIKKI   Facebook https://www.facebook.com/RareMamas1/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/Rare_Mamas/ Website https://raremamas.com/ Email info@raremamas.com

Thanks to the AVROBIO team for a great day of patient advocacy. We feel so honored to be a part of these conferences and always take so much away from them.  And a huge thank you to panelists Jordan, Darren, and Kim. Gene Therapy treatments have the potential to make a profound impact in rare disease. However, these potentially permanent therapies present unique considerations for any participant in clinical trials. When we were presented with the opportunity to moderate a panel of people who either participated in gene therapy studies or had extensive knowledge to share on this topic, we jumped on it! AVROBIO's vision is to bring personalized gene therapy to the world. They aim to prevent, halt or reverse disease throughout the body with a single dose of gene therapy designed to drive durable expression of therapeutic protein, even in hard-to-reach tissues and organs including brain, muscle, and bone. AVROBIO's ex vivo lentiviral gene therapy pipeline includes clinical programs in Fabry disease, Gaucher disease type 1 and cystinosis, as well as preclinical programs in Hunter syndrome, Gaucher disease type 3 and Pompe disease.  For additional information, visit www.avrobio.com
