	<p>DUBLIN, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ &#8212; Mallinckrodt plc, a global specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced the winner of the Extracorporeal Immunomodulation Award (EIA). The award recognizes a project aimed at identifying the optimal timing for extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) initiation and assessing its effectiveness when combined with other graft versus host disease (GvHD) therapies. To recognize the occasion, Mallinckrodt, which provides immunomodulatory therapy via ECP, dedicated the $75,000 grant to this research. This year&#8217;s award holds special significance as it marks 30 years since clinicians first used ECP to successfully treat chronic graft versus host disease (cGvHD).1,2</p>
<p>The EIA-winning project was submitted by Dr Andrea Varkonyi, of the South-Pest Central Hospital, National Institute of Hematology and Infectiology&#8217;s Department of Hematology and Stem Cell Transplantation, in Budapest, Hungary. Her team will carry out a retrospective and prospective study, comparing ruxolitinib alone to ruxolitinib combined with ECP therapy in the treatment of acute and chronic GvHD. They will also evaluate the impact of ECP on the development of transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA).</p>
<p>&#8220;Mallinckrodt is thrilled to recognize Dr. Andrea Varkonyi with this year&#8217;s the Extracorporeal Immunomodulation Award and continuing the research in chronic GvHD. As the manufacturer of the THERAKOS<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> CELLEX<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Photopheresis System we are committed to supporting research that seeks to improve patient outcomes and tackle unmet needs in this important area of medicine.&#8221; <strong>said Peter Richardson, MRCP (UK), Executive Vice President &amp; Chief Scientific Officer.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Dr. Varkonyi said</strong>, &#8220;Acute and chronic GvHD, along with TA-TMA, remain unresolved issues following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. Despite the intent of the procedure, these complications often prevent patients from achieving complete recovery. We are grateful to be receiving this award to advance research in this area. Thank you, Mallinckrodt, for the opportunity to further our research.&#8221;</p>
<p>The study&#8217;s objective is to identify the optimal timing for introducing ECP and assess its effectiveness when combined with other therapies. It aims to address key areas of interest in allogeneic stem cell transplant-associated fundamental and clinical research.</p>
<p>Entries to the EIA award were invited from clinicians and scientists working on translational or outcomes-based research, as well as collaborative projects, in the field of GvHD-focused ECP. Submissions were assessed on a range of criteria, including scientific merit, originality, and feasibility.</p>
<p>The EIA award recognizes individuals and institutions whose research contributes to the continued advancement of knowledge in this area of medicine and is just one part of our ongoing commitment to the science of immunomodulation through ECP.</p>
<p>In June, the THERAKOS<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> CELLEX<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> System technology secured CE certification under the European Union Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR). It involved a robust quality management system audit, technical and microbiological reviews, and a thorough clinical assessment, demonstrating the organization&#8217;s ongoing commitment to ECP evidence generation, post approval.</p>
<p><strong>About THERAKOS<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> CELLEX<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Photopheresis System</strong></p>
<p>The THERAKOS CELLEX Photopheresis System is the world&#8217;s only fully integrated and validated ECP system.3 THERAKOS performs ECP using patented technology that collects, separates and treats a small amount of white blood cells (immune cells) while the patient is connected to the instrument. The treated cells are then returned to the patient where they help to modify the immune response in a process called immunomodulation. It is used to treat a range of immune-mediated diseases. THERAKOS Systems are used by over 300 treatment centres in over 30 countries worldwide.4</p>
<p><strong>About Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP)</strong></p>
<p>Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) is an immunomodulatory therapy that has demonstrated efficacy in various T-cell and immune-mediated diseases.³ ECP is recommended by international and national guidelines for a spectrum of diseases, including cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD and cGvHD), chronic lung allograft dysfunction-bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (CLAD-BOS) and after cardiac transplantation. 5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15, 16,17</p>

	<p>DUBLIN, April 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ &#8212; Mallinckrodt plc, a global specialty pharmacy company, today announced that submissions for its 2024 Extracorporeal Immunomodulation Award (EIA) will open on 13 April 2024 during the 50<sup>th</sup> Annual Meeting of the European Bone Marrow Transplant Meeting (EBMT), Europe&#8217;s largest annual congress in blood and bone marrow transplantation and cellular therapies. In recognition of 30 years since clinicians first used ECP to successfully treat chronic GvHD,<sup>1</sup> Mallinckrodt, provider of immunomodulatory therapy via Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP) and manufacturer of the world&#8217;s only fully integrated, validated, ECP system, is pleased to mark this important milestone by this year dedicating the award to the study of ECP for cGvHD.</p>
<p>All clinicians and scientists working on translational or outcomes-based research, as well as collaborative projects, in the EMEA region are invited to apply. Submissions will be assessed on a range of criteria, including scientific merit, originality, and feasibility, and the winning project will receive an educational grant of €75,000.</p>
<p>&#8220;Mallinckrodt has pioneered ECP immunomodulation through its THERAKOS<sup>TM</sup> CELLEX<sup>TM </sup>Photopheresis System and is pleased to support continued research that further contributes to this field of medicine,&#8221; said <strong>Peter Richardson, MRCP (UK), Executive Vice President &amp; Chief Scientific Officer</strong>.</p>
<p>Part of Mallinckrodt&#8217;s ongoing commitment to the science of immunomodulation through ECP is to recognize individuals and institutions whose research contributes to the advancement of knowledge in this area of medicine.</p>
<p>Previous winners have included a collaboration between The RIGHT institute and University Hospital Besançon, in France. The team, led by Dr Etienne Daguindau, investigated the mechanisms of cell death generated through ECP, and its direct effects on the innate cells involved in the resolution of inflammation. In 2018, the prize went to a team from the Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust&#8217;s Department of Haematology. Led by Dr Nick Matthews, the study evaluated the effect of ECP on monocytes in the GvHD setting.</p>
<p>Entries to the 2024 EIA Award will close on 1 September 2024.

<p><span class="xn-location">DUBLIN</span>, <span class="xn-chron">Feb. 21, 2024</span> /PRNewswire/ &#8212; <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4095096-1&amp;h=2673367345&amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mnk.com%2F&amp;a=Mallinckrodt+plc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"><span class="xn-org">Mallinckrodt</span> plc</a>, a global specialty pharmaceutical company, today announced a poster presentation of findings from a systematic literature review and meta-analysis of the safety, efficacy, and real-world outcomes of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) treatment for patients with steroid-refractory chronic graft-versus-host disease (SR-cGvHD).<sup>1</sup> An analysis of 47 studies reporting on the THERAKOS<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> CELLEX<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Photopheresis System showed that treatment of SR-cGvHD with ECP was associated with improvements in patients&#8217; overall survival (OS), failure-free survival (FFS), and overall response rate (ORR).<sup>1</sup> The results will be shared in a poster presentation at the 2024 Tandem Meetings, the combined <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4095096-1&amp;h=3857291276&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fregistration.tandemmeetings.com%2Fwebsite%2F44579%2Fhome%2F&amp;a=Transplantation+%26+Cellular+Therapy+Meetings+of+the+American+Society+of+Transplantation+and+Cellular+Therapy+(ASTCT)+and+the+Center+for+International+Blood+and+Marrow+Transplant+Research+(CIBMTR)" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Transplantation &amp; Cellular Therapy Meetings of the American Society of Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) and the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR)</a> taking place <span class="xn-chron">February 21-24, 2024</span> in <span class="xn-location">San Antonio, TX.</span></p>
<p>A systematic review of literature available through <span class="xn-chron">October 19, 2022</span> was first conducted to identify and analyze studies of patients receiving ECP for SR-cGvHD that reported on efficacy, safety, or health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes.<sup>1</sup> The literature review identified 47 studies which uniquely reported on THERAKOS ECP treatment with a sample size ≥ 10 patients, comprising a total of 2,361 patients.<sup>1</sup> Lines of therapy were poorly reported (n=15) and ranged from 0-≥4 lines of previous treatment.<sup>1</sup> Most clinical studies (n=27) used a retrospective case series design.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p>Using the studies identified from the systematic literature review, random effects meta-analyses were then performed for short- and long-term efficacy outcomes including ORR and skin-specific response, and OS and FFS, respectively.<sup>1</sup> A subgroup analysis was also conducted to explore the effect of outcome assessment criteria from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) vs. non-NIH/unknown criteria.<sup>1</sup> Safety and HRQoL outcomes were poorly reported in the existing clinical literature and therefore were not suitable for the meta-analysis.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p>&#8220;We are pleased to share this important analysis of real-world data supporting THERAKOS ECP&#8217;s efficacy, safety, and associated improvements to short- and long-term outcomes – such as overall survival, failure-free survival, and overall response rate – for patients with steroid-refractory chronic graft-versus-host-disease,<sup>1</sup>&#8221; said <strong><span class="xn-person">Zachariah DeFilipp</span>, MD, Hematopoietic Cell Transplant and Cellular Therapy Program, Massachusetts General Hospital, MA. </strong>&#8220;This analysis not only builds upon the growing body of evidence supporting ECP&#8217;s utility in treating patients with this condition, but also reflects the importance of supporting clinicians with treatment options for managing patients who do not respond to other types of therapy, such as steroids.<sup>1</sup>&#8221;</p>
<p>In assessing the short-term efficacy of THERAKOS ECP, this meta-analysis found<sup>1</sup>:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>The ORR (7 studies; 293 patients) at Months 3-4 and at Months 6-8 (13 studies; 540 patients) were 45.34% (95% CI: 26.64 – 65.45) and 58.23% (95% CI: 45.04-70.35), respectively.</li>
<li>No significant difference in ORR between studies utilizing NIH criteria vs. non-NIH criteria, per the subgroup analysis.</li>
<li>Skin-specific response at Months 2-3 and at Months 4-6 were 34.86% (95% CI: 13.26-65.21) and 54.22% (95% CI: 35.67-71.67), respectively.</li>
</ul>
<p>In assessing the long-term efficacy of THERAKOS ECP, this meta-analysis found<sup>1</sup>:</p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>The pooled OS rate (14 studies; 704 patients) at Month 12 was 83.97% (95% CI: 77.33-88.94).</li>
<li>The OS rate (8 studies; 431 patients) at Month 60 was 57.96% (95% CI: 35.48-77.56).</li>
<li>The FFS rate (4 studies; 169 patients) at Month 12 was 60.79% (95% CI: 38.94-79.03).</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Limitations</strong><br class="dnr" />Data collected in systematic literature reviews and meta-analyses may have errors or omissions. The studies included in the analysis are heterogeneous and use different patient populations, endpoints, interventions, and dosing.<sup>1</sup> There was considerable heterogeneity across analyses with I<sup>2</sup> values ranging from 65% to 91%.<sup>1</sup> Most studies included in the meta-analysis were retrospective analyses<sup>1</sup> and these observations may require further investigation in prospective, controlled trials. Statistical evaluations should be interpreted with caution. Outcomes may be influenced by therapies not evaluated in the study and the clinical/health economics outcomes may not be solely attributable to THERAKOS ECP.</p>

<li>Thromboembolic events, including pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, have been reported in the treatment of Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD). Special attention to adequate anticoagulation is advised when treating patients with GvHD.</li>
<li>When prescribing and administering THERAKOS Photopheresis for patients receiving concomitant therapy, exercise caution when changing treatment schedules to avoid increased disease activity that may be caused by abrupt withdrawal of previous therapy.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Adverse Events</strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li>Hypotension may occur during any treatment involving extracorporeal circulation. Closely monitor the patient during the entire treatment for hypotension.</li>
<li>Transient pyretic reactions, 37.7–38.9 ᵒC (100–102 ᵒF), have been observed in some patients within six to eight hours of reinfusion of the photoactivated leukocyte-enriched blood. A temporary increase in erythroderma may accompany the pyretic reaction.</li>
<li>Treatment frequency exceeding labelling recommendations may result in anaemia.</li>
<li>Venous access carries a small risk of infection and pain.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>About Extracorporeal Photopheresis (ECP)</strong><br class="dnr" />ECP, a blood based immunomodulatory therapy developed more than 30 years ago, is recommended by the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT)<sup>2</sup> and other clinical societies<sup>3</sup><sup>,4,5</sup> as an adjunctive therapy for the prevention and treatment of ACR after heart transplantation. Additionally, ECP may be considered to treat AMR with or without donor specific antibodies.<sup>6</sup><sup>,7</sup> In countries where it is approved, ECP is used to treat a range of immune-mediated diseases, including skin manifestations of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), solid organ transplant rejection and other autoimmune diseases. During ECP treatment, a small amount of white blood cells is collected and treated with a drug that is activated by ultraviolet light.</p>
