7 NEED: Collapsing the HIV Treatment Cascade UNAIDS An ambitious treatment target to help end the AIDS epidemic. October Cepheid Confidential.

8 NEED: Large Gap of EID Testing within 2 Months of Birth 8 Cepheid Confidential.

9 Conventional Molecular Diagnostic Needs Cepheid

10 Molecular Diagnostics Complexity Cepheid For Each System: Significant Capital Investment Space, Possible Environmental Considerations Dedicated, Highly Skilled Labor & Ongoing Training Daily/Weekly Maintenance Requirements Maintenance Contract with Supplier Disposable Management

11 Key Components: A simple to use, quality controlled assay Reliable Connectivity In Country Support Let us take care of IQC 11 Cepheid Cepheid Confidential. Confidential.

12 Xpert System Part of the Solution 12 Cepheid Cepheid Confidential. Confidential.

13 Platform Scalability Same Module, Any Configuration, Any Assay Molecular server cabinet architecture enables system to grow with testing needs GX-16 GX-1 GX-2 GX-4 GeneXpert Module GeneXpert Infinity Cepheid Confidential.

14 GeneXpert Module Stand-alone, random access, assay capability Heating/cooling Optical detection Fluid movement Ultrasonic Horn Identical for all Xpert and Infinity Cartridges and Systems 14 Cepheid Confidential.

15 Cartridge Technology Complex Test Process Performed Automatically Within Cartridge Sample Prep, Amplification & Detection Significant Reduction in Hands-on Time Universal Sample Preparation Whole Blood, Plasma, FFPE Tissue, Fecal Material, Sputum, Urine, CSF, others Unique Cartridge Approach Same Interface For All GeneXpert Systems Rotary valve controls movement of fluid between chambers and into PCR tube Fluid moves between chambers or into PCT tube through a filter (sample prep.) or direct path 15 Cepheid Confidential.

16 Assay Control Strategy Each GeneXpert cartridge is a self-contained unit test device (all the complex steps required for PCR take place in the cartridge to minimize risk of contamination) Cepheid designed specific molecular methods to include internal controls that enable the system to detect specific failure modes 16 Cepheid Confidential.

17 Assay Control Strategy Four different elements of the molecular design were created to address all the key failures Probe Check Control (all assays) Specimen Processing Controls SPC / Endogenous Control ( for Xpert BCR/ABL) Sample Adequacy Control SAC( for Xpert CT/NG and Xpert HPV) Sample Volume Adequacy SVA (for Xpert HIV-VL) 17 Cepheid Confidential.

18 Probe Check Control What is it? Just prior to starting thermal cycling, multiple fluorescence readings at different temperatures are made. The results are automatically compared to pre-established factory settings in the software. What does it do? Probe check verifies Bead re-hydration PCR tube filling Probe integrity Dye or quencher instability 18 Cepheid Confidential.

19 Sample Processing Control (SPC) What is it? Armoured RNA Detection probe: A fluorescently-labeled hybridization probe with different color reporter dye than that of the target probe(s) or the internal control (IC); present in primer-probe bead Primers: Can be the same as those for the target or IC or can be unique; present in primer-probe bead What does it do? Co-processed with target organism through entire sample prep process Co-amplified with targets - The SPC assesses the effectiveness of the sample processing steps, including and up to reaction tube filling - Detects degradation of enzyme(s) or other components of system - Detects sample inhibition 19 Cepheid Confidential.

20 Sample Volume Adequacy (SVA) What is it? The Sample Volume Adequacy is a in built pressure check to ensure the input volume of sample is adequate for testing. What does it do? The Sample Volume Adequacy ensures that the sample was correctly added to the cartridge. It verifies that the correct in-volume of sample has been added in the correct sample chamber. A negative SVA indicates an error 2096/2097 due to: insufficient volume No volume * used on Xpert HIV VL 20 Cepheid Confidential.

21 Sample Adequacy Control (SAC) What is it? The Sample Adequacy control is a in built check to ensure that the input sample is adequate for testing. An endogenous human gene is co-amplified to ensure adequate sample has been collected. What does it do? The SAC verifies that there is sufficient material to ensure confidence in a negative result. A negative SAC indicates an INVALID result 21 Cepheid Confidential.

22 Controls in regular PCR DNA Positive Control (PC) - Verifies reagent integrity DNA Negative Control (NC) - Detects 22 Cepheid Confidential. environmental or reagent contamination and verifies reagent integrity Internal control (IC) - Detects PCR inhibition and verifies reagent integrity

23 GeneXpert Real-Time PCR Assay DNA Positive Control (PC) - Probe Check Control DNA Negative Control (NC) - No need! No wet interface between instrument and cartridge and 1 cartridge for 1 sample Internal control (IC) Tube control Better : SPC, not only amplification but extraction too Does not compete with target RNA/DNA. 23 Cepheid Confidential.

24 External Quality Controls Any currently available proficiency panels can be used on this platform e.g. WHO, VQA standards, NEQAS, NHLS SAVQA panel Frequency of EQA testing is determined by the implementing programme 24 Cepheid Confidential.

25 Xpert Assay and System Control Summary Procedural Step & Condition Controlled Pre-, and during run Sample Addition Sample Processing Reagent Addition IQS Probe Check System Checks Final Results Sonication X Failure results in: ERROR Heating, cooling, pressure (clogging), electronics, optics X Failure results in: ERROR Sample aspiration X Failure results in: ERROR Cell lysis X Failure results in: ERROR Nucleic acid recovery X Failure results in: ERROR Bead Presence/Rehydration X X Failure results in: ERROR or INVALID PCR tube fill X X Failure results in: ERROR Fluorogenic detection X X Failure results in: ERROR Thermal cycling X X Failure results in: ERROR PCR Primer or target annealing X Failure results in: INVALID Inhibition X Failure results in: INVALID Quantitation Results Reported X Quantitative Value (IU/ml or copies /ml) Detected Above range Detected Below Range Not Detected 25 Cepheid Confidential.

26 Warranty Extension Purchase of a three year warranty extension contract upfront with the system will result in a total coverage of 5 years for a new GeneXpert (two years of initial warranty attached to the system = 3 additional years) Note that a calibration kit (Xpert Check) per 4 set of modules still need to be purchased to be run at the end of the first year of warranty of the GeneXpert. This is required to validate the second year of warranty attached to each system. 26 Cepheid Confidential.

27 Xpert Check Remote Calibration The Xpert Check kit is used to check the optical system, verify the thermal system and perform a series of system-level tests to ensure full system functionality within Cepheid s instrument servicing specifications. Cepheid recommends that the system be checked for proper operation on an annual basis. Based upon the usage and care of each system, checks may be recommended more frequently. The system is designed to detect module issues with the internal assay controls. At the completion of the Xpert Check data collection process, modules determined to require service will be flagged with an orange icon. 27 Cepheid Confidential.
