The METRIC Study METRIC Study Key Eligibility Criteria The pivotal METRIC Study is evaluating glembatumumab vedotin in patients with gpnmb overexpressing metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Approximately 300 gpnmb positive, metastatic TNBC patients will be enrolled in up to approximately 160 sites within the United States, Canada, Australia and Europe This is an open label, 2-to-1 randomized comparison of glembatumumab vedotin versus an active control, capecitabine (Xeloda ) Treatment Design Patients treated over 21-day cycles Randomized 2-to-1 to receive either: - Glembatumumab vedotin: an intravenous infusion of medication (1.88 mg/kg) on day 1 of each cycle, or - Capecitabine: oral medication (1250 mg/m 2 ) taken twice daily on days 1 through 14 of each cycle Treatment cycles continue as long as the cancer does not progress or until a study physician determines that the patient should stop receiving treatment in the study Tumor assessments conducted at 6-week intervals for 6 months and 9-week intervals thereafter, until documented progression Study Endpoints The primary endpoint for this study is progression free survival (PFS) Secondary endpoints include objective response rate, duration of response, overall survival, safety and pharmacokinetics Exploratory endpoints include quality of life and/or reduction in cancer-related pain, assessed through analgesic use To qualify for the METRIC study, a patient must: Be at least 18 years of age Have been diagnosed with metastatic TNBC with: - Minimal or no expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors (ER/PR); <10% of cells positive by immunohistochemistry - HER2 staining 0 or 1+ by IHC or copy number <4.0 signals/cell by ISH Have documented progression of disease based on radiographic, clinical or pathologic assessment during or subsequent to the last anticancer regimen received Have received 0-2 prior chemotherapy treatments for advanced (locally advanced/recurrent or metastatic) breast cancer Have prior chemotherapy treatment with a taxane and, if clinically indicated, an anthracycline No prior capecitabine Have ECOG performance status of 0-1 Have adequate bone marrow, liver and renal function No progression/recurrence during or within 3 months of completion of neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy No ongoing neuropathy or other toxicities that are Grade 2 or worse in severity Breast cancer tumors must be confirmed to express gpnmb. This will be determined by submitting a tissue sample from the advanced (locally advanced/recurrent or metastatic) disease setting to a central laboratory for analysis prior to the study entry (~45% positivity rate). If you have patients who have been diagnosed with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, we hope that you will consider the METRIC study. To learn more about this study, please contact the study investigator listed on the front of this brochure. Glembatumumab Vedotin (CDX-011) in Patients with Metastatic, gpnmb Overexpressing, Triple-Negative Breast Cancer HELP TAKE TRIPLE-NEGATIVE BREAST CANCER TREATMENT OPTIONS IN A NEW DIRECTION CONTACT A STUDY INVESTIGATOR clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/nct01997333

Glembatumumab Vedotin, an ADC targeting gpnmb in multiple cancers Glembatumumab vedotin (CDX-011) is an investigational, fully human monoclonal antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) designed to release monomethylauristatin E (MMAE) upon internalization into gpnmb-expressing tumor cells. MMAE binds to tubulin, inhibiting mitosis and leading to cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. The compound and its metabolites do not accumulate over time. gpnmb as a TNBC Therapy Target Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents a disease with substantial molecular heterogeneity.¹ Treatment with standard-of-care is associated with progressive resistance and short survival.² There is great interest in identifying molecular markers that can be targeted for therapeutic intervention.³ The transmembrane protein gpnmb is aberrantly expressed at high levels in a range of cancers including breast cancer. High tumor expression of gpnmb is: - Associated with invasion and metastasis 4 - Correlated with reduced time to progression and survival in breast cancer 3,4 - Implicated as a negative regulator of anti-tumor immune response Three Completed Clinical Studies Studied in more than 250 patients with heavily pre-treated breast cancer and melanoma Patients with TNBC derived greater clinical benefit from glembatumumab vedotin than from standard of care Phase 2 EMERGE study results published (Yardley, et al. J Clin Oncol. 2015) The EMERGE Study, a randomized Phase 2 study in patients with locally advanced or metastatic, gpnmb-positive breast cancer Study Design Examined whether the anti-cancer activity of glembatumumab vedotin is dependent upon gpnmb expression Randomized 124 patients (2-to-1) to glembatumumab vedotin (n=83) or to chemotherapy of the investigator s choice (IC) (n=41) Stratified by gpnmb expression pattern: highexpressing gpnmb in 40% of TNBC samples vs. 21% of all others Glembatumumab vedotin (1.88 mg/kg) was administered by IV infusion over 90 minutes once every three weeks. Up to two dose reductions (to 1.34 or 1.0 mg/kg) were allowed for toxicity. Investigator s choice (IC) consisted of single-agent chemotherapy, and dosing and supportive care were managed per standard practice. Study treatment continued until disease progression or intolerance, and after documented progression, IC-treated patients were permitted to receive glembatumumab vedotin in a crossover treatment phase. Efficacy The primary efficacy endpoint, objective response rate (ORR) of more than 10% for all patients, was not met; however, improvements in progression free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were observed in TNBC patients with high gpnmb expression. Strong trends towards benefits were seen in all patients with high gpnmb expression, and in some cases were statistically significant. Patients receiving IC alone who crossed over to receive glembatumumab vedotin upon disease progression appeared to represent the better outcomes in the control arm, with a median survival of 12.5 months, as compared to those who did not cross over, with a median of 5.4 months. Similar outcomes observed for all patients on glembatumumab vedotin and IC, without selecting for gpnmb expression Efficacy Measures for Patients with TNBC and High gpnmb Expression Glembatumumab Vedotin Investigator s Choice Chemo Patients n=10 n=6 Overall Survival months Progression Free Survival months 10.0 5.5 HR=0.14, p=0.003 3.5 1.5 HR=0.11, p=0.0017 Objective Response Rate (ORR) n (%) 4 (40%) 0 Confirmed PR n (%) 1 (10%) 0 Stable Disease or Better n (%) 9 (90%) 1 (17%) ORR per RECIST 1.1, inclusive of response observed at a single time point Safety Adverse events were manageable and consistent with prior studies Rash, neutropenia, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, peripheral neuropathy and alopecia were more frequent in the glembatumumab vedotin arm Hematologic toxicity was less frequent than IC PFS and OS (but not ORR) were prolonged for patients who developed a rash in cycle 1 compared to those who did not; a similar association was observed in a Phase 1/2 melanoma study 5 Summary Patients with TNBC and tumor gpnmb overexpression may potentially derive the greatest benefit from glembatumumab vedotin The identified threshold for high gpnmb expression, 25% of malignant epithelial cells, includes 41% of the screened patients with TNBC (including archived samples) The ongoing pivotal METRIC study is enrolling patients in order to confirm these findings References 1.
