Specialty Pipeline Monthly Update Critical updates in an ever changing environment September 2017 New drug information Gocovri (amantadine HCl XR): The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved Adamas Pharma s Gocovri for the treatment of dyskinesia in patients with Parkinson s disease receiving levodopa-based therapy, with or without concomitant dopaminergic medications. Gocovri is the first medication approved by the FDA for this indication; however, immediate-release amantadine, available generically, is used for this indication off-label. 1 The company has reported that the annual wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) should fall between $10,000 to $30,000 and will be launched in the fourth quarter of 2017. 1,2 Cyltezo (adalimumab-adbm): Boehringer Ingelheim s Cyltezo, a biosimilar for AbbVie s Humira, received FDA approval for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, adult Crohn s disease, ulcerative colitis, and plaque psoriasis. Humira has additional indications that Cyltezo does not have including: pediatric Crohn s disease, hidradenitis suppurativa, and uveitis. Cyltezo is the second Humira biosimilar to win FDA approval, following Amgen s Amjevita which received approval in September 2016. Neither Cyltezo nor Amjevita are able to launch at this time due to ongoing patent litigation. Kymriah (tisagenlecleucel): The FDA approved Novartis Kymriah for the treatment of patients up to 25 years of age with B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that is refractory or in second or later relapse. Kymriah is a CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T cell immunotherapy, also known as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. Novartis has priced Kymriah at a WAC of $475,000 for a course of treatment. 3 Kymriah is available for administration at limited treatment centers throughout the United States; some treatment centers are ready to administer Kymriah, while others will be ready soon. 4 Mylotarg (gemtuzumab ozogamicin): The FDA approved Pfizer s Mylotarg for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) whose tumors express the CD33 antigen and for the treatment of patients aged 2 years and older with CD33-positive AML who have experienced a relapse or who have not responded to initial treatment. Although Mylotarg originally received accelerated approval in May 2000, it was voluntarily withdrawn from the market after trials failed to verify clinical benefit and demonstrated safety concerns. 5 The current approval includes a lower recommended dose, a different schedule in combination with chemotherapy or on its own, and a new patient population.

Specialty Pipeline Update: September 2017 Page 2 New drug information continued Mvasi (bevacizumab-awwb): Allergan/Amgen received FDA approval for Mvasi, a biosimilar to Genentech s Avastin, for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), glioblastoma, renal cell carcinoma, and cervical cancer. Avastin has additional indications that Mvasi does not have including: recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer. Mvasi is the first biosimilar approved in the United States for the treatment of cancer. Mvasi is unable to launch at this time due to Avastin s composition-of-matter patents which are set to expire in mid-2019. Aliqopa (copanlisib): The FDA approved Bayer s Aliqopa for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma (FL) who have received at least two prior systemic therapies. Accelerated approval was granted for this indication based on overall response rate. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in a confirmatory trial. Aliqopa is administered intravenously on an intermittent schedule. 6 New indications Yervoy (ipilimumab): The FDA expanded the indication of BMS s Yervoy for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic melanoma in pediatric patients 12 years of age and older. Prior to this approval, Yervoy was approved for the adjuvant treatment of patients with cutaneous melanoma with pathologic involvement of regional lymph nodes of more than 1 mm who have undergone complete resection, including total lymphadenectomy. Austedo (deutetrabenazine): Teva pharmaceuticals received FDA approval for Austedo to treat tardive dyskinesia. Prior to this approval, Austedo was only approved for the treatment of chorea associated with Huntington s disease. Actemra (tocilizumab): The FDA approved Genentech s Actemra for adults and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell-induced severe or life-threatening cytokine release syndrome (CRS). CRS has been identified as a potentially severe and life-threatening side effect of CAR T cell therapy. Orfadin (nitisinone): Sobi received FDA approval for once daily dosing of Orfadin for patients with hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 (HT-1) ages 5 years and older. Previously, Orfadin was only approved for twice daily dosing. Tracleer (bosentan): The FDA approved Johnson & Johnson s Tracleer for pediatric patients at least 3 years of age and older with idiopathic or congenital pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This is the first approved drug for children with PAH and will be available in a scored 32 mg tablet that allows weight-based dose adjustment for younger patients and may be dispersed in water before being given orally.
Specialty Pipeline Update: September 2017 Page 3 September news The Food and Drug Administration accused the drugmaker Pfizer of failing to properly investigate reports of malfunctioning EpiPens, including incidents when patients died or became severely ill after the device failed to work. Pfizer manufactures the EpiPen, which treats allergic reactions, for the drugmaker Mylan. 7 Sarepta Therapeutics Inc. on Wednesday released promising early data from a study of a new drug to treat some patients with the rare muscle-wasting disease Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). The drug is a follow-up to Exondys 51, another DMD treatment the FDA approved last year over the objection of some of its own scientists to treat a different subset of patients. 8 What does it really cost to bring a drug to market? The question is central to the debate over rising health care costs and appropriate drug pricing. For years, the standard figure has been supplied by researchers at the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development: $2.7 billion each, in 2017 dollars. Yet a new study looking at 10 cancer medications, among the most expensive of new drugs, has arrived at a much lower figure: a median cost of $757 million per drug. 9 Dupixent, the Sanofi and Regeneron drug already on a blockbuster arc in atopic dermatitis, has returned significant results in patients with severe asthma, another indication that is expected to add billions of dollars more in sales for the partners. 10 FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb has sounded a crystal clear warning over the high and growing cost of drug development. And in a speech to regulatory execs on Monday, Gottlieb committed the FDA to backing up more efficient drug development programs with new measures to clear the regulatory path for developers barreling ahead to relatively swift pivotal data in search of an accelerated OK. 11 For the first time a medicine (Ilaris ), given just four times a year, has been shown to prevent heart attacks not by lowering cholesterol or blood pressure or preventing blood clots but by reducing inflammation. Tantalizingly, it also may have prevented deaths of non-small cell lung cancer, although everyone cautions that a lot more evidence is needed to know if that result is a fluke. 12
