Data on file, Amgen; [AMG 145 Protocol 20110118 Amendment 4; July 16, 2013]. Q24W Number of key 2 0 EPs achieved Study will end when 1630 subjects have experienced a key secondary endpoint of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction or stroke. (3550 primary endpoints expected). End of study estimated to be 40 months after last patient is enrolled. 20
Identifying Eligible Patients I Adult aged 40-85 Post-MI Post-stroke (non-haemorrhagic) Symptomatic PAD intermittent claudication (ABI < 0.85) peripheral revascularisation, or amputation due to atherosclerosis with one or more of the following major risk factors Diabetes (type I or II) Age 65 (and 85) Daily smoker Index episode within 6 mts Previous MI or stroke before index episode Symptomatic PAD (MI/stroke patients) Lipid stabilisation period 21 PAD: Peripheral Arterial Disease Limit to proportion of patients with index event > 5 years ago
Identifying Eligible Patients II Adult aged 40-85 Post-MI Post-stroke (non-haemorrhagic) with 2 of the following minor risk factors: Symptomatic PAD intermittent claudication (ABI < 0.85) peripheral revascularisation, or amputation due to atherosclerosis Metabolic factors LDL-C > 3.4 mmol/l or non-hdl- C 4.1 mmol/l HDL-C < 1.0 mmol/l in or < 1.3 mmol/l in hscrp > 2.0 mg/dl Metabolic syndrome Coronary factors Non-MI related coronary revascularisation Residual CAD ( 40% stenosis in 2 or more large vessels) Lipid stabilisation period PAD: Peripheral Arterial Disease Limit to proportion of patients with index event > 5 years ago 22
Evaluating lipid levels: Inclusion Criteria At Screening: Fasting triglycerides 4.5 mmol/l (400 mg/dl) After 2 weeks of stable lipid-lowering therapy, subject eligible for inclusion if: Fasting LDL-C 1.8 mmol/l ( 70 mg/dl) OR non-hdl-c 2.6 mmol/l ( 100 mg/dl) 23 *per local regulatory approval
FOURIER Amendment 4 Background lipid therapy Atorvastatin, simvastatin or rosuvastatin all eligible as background statin therapy. Only atorvastatin (20 mg, 40 mg and 80 mg) is provided by Amgen Background Statin Atorvastatin Simvastatin Rosuvastatin 20 mg 40 mg 5 mg Acceptable Doses 40 mg 80 mg 80 mg 10 mg 20 mg 40 mg Where locally approved, highly effective statin therapy (at least atorvastatin 40mg/ day or equivalent) is recommended. As a minimum, all subjects must receive at least an effective statin dose (at least atorvastatin 20mg/day or equivalent). For subjects with LDL-C >2.6 mmol/l not receiving highly effective statin therapy, investigator must attest that higher dose statin therapy is not appropriate for this subject (e.g. subject refused, dose not tolerated, other significant concern) 24
