1 Specialty Pipeline Update D Drug Insights > December 2016 New drug information Rubraca (rucaparib): The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted accelerated approval to Clovis Oncology, Inc. s Rubraca (rucaparib) for women with advanced ovarian cancer who have been treated with two or more chemotherapies and whose tumors have a specific gene mutation (deleterious BRCA) as identified by an FDA-approved companion diagnostic test. The FDA approved Rubraca under its accelerated approval program based on objective response rate and duration of response. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials. New indications Iclusig (ponatinib): The FDA has granted full approval of Ariad s Iclusig for adult patients with chronic phase, accelerated phase, or blast phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) for whom no other tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy is indicated; and for the treatment of adult patients with T315Ipositive CML (chronic phase, accelerated phase, or blast phase) or T315I positive Ph+ ALL. Iclusig was initially approved under the FDA s accelerated approval program which allows patients access to new drugs that treat serious conditions while the company conducts studies to prove clinical benefit. Avastin (bevacizumab): Genentech s Avastin has been approved in combination with chemotherapy, followed by Avastin alone, for the treatment of patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. Prior to this approval, Avastin was approved for use in these same cancers with platinum-resistance in combination with chemotherapy; as well as other cancer diagnosis.

2 Specialty Pipeline > December 2016 Page 2 December news AstraZeneca s (AZ) lung cancer medication, Tagrisso (osimertinib), a blockbuster hopeful and important pillar in the company s big sales ambitions, soundly beat chemotherapy in a new phase 3 trial, staving off cancer growth for more than twice as long as the older regimen. The results have AZ execs talking up their case for Tagrisso as a new standard of care in certain patients. 1 Novartis Sandoz unit has been marketing Zarxio, its biosimilar version of Amgen s blockbuster drug Neupogen, for more than a year, but the drug is still tangled in a patent fight that boils down to one central question: Should biosimilar makers have to give six months notice to the original drugmaker after they receive FDA approval for their copycat version? The answer will affect not only Novartis and Amgen, but any company seeking to make a biosimilar product. 2
