1. A NEW TREATMENT PARADIGM 3 A Targeted Approach to Patient Care Advancements in science and technology are changing the way we define disease, develop drugs, and prescribe treatments. Armed with a greater understanding of disease biology, it has become evident that a patient’s response to treatment—with respect to both safety and efficacy—is greatly dependent upon his or her molecular profile. The promise of personalized medicine is to get the right treatment to the right patient at the right dose the first time through the use of molecular biomarker tests and targeted therapies.

What is Personalized Medicine? Source: Personalized Medicine Coalition, “PMC Public Opinion Survey,” http://personalizedmedicinecoalition.org/Resources/PMC_Public_Opinion_Survey, Jul 2014 (accessed May 2015). Personalized medicine, sometimes referred to as precision or individualized medicine, is an emerging field of medicine that uses diagnostic tools to identify specific biological markers, often genetic, to help assess which medical treatments and procedures will be best for each patient. 1  A New Treatment Paradigm 4

What is a Biomarker? A biomarker is a characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biologic processes, disease processes, or biological responses to a therapeutic intervention. Biomarkers can be used to reduce uncertainty and guide clinical care. Molecular Biomarkers Can Include: Biomarkers Help Inform Medical Decisions:  Prevention measures?  Which diagnosis?  Treat or don’t treat?  What dose? How Do You Detect a Biomarker? Diagnostics Blood draw Microscopic analysis Gene sequencing Biopsy Protein analysis Proteins Source: National Cancer Institute, “NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms” (accessed May 2015). 1  A New Treatment Paradigm 9

2. BENEFITING PATIENTS AND THE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM 14 Growing Impact of Personalized Medicine The first wave of personalized medicines have entered mainstream clinical practice and are changing the way many diseases are identified, classified, and treated. These advancements are particularly evident in the area of oncology. From helping patients live longer and healthier lives to creating efficiencies in health care, these new personalized medicines are bringing great value to patients and the health care system.

Public Supports Coverage of Personalized Medicine In a recent survey, nearly two-thirds of individuals surveyed believe payers should cover personalized medicine tests and treatments because they deliver more value to patients than conventional treatments and may help control overall health care spending. 16% Source: Personalized Medicine Coalition, “PMC Public Opinion Survey,” http://personalizedmedicinecoalition.org/Resources/PMC_Public_Opinion_Survey, Jul 2014 (accessed May 2015). 2  Benefiting Patients and the Health Care System 16 20% Don't know/ Refused. Because personalized tests and treatments are targeted to a small number of patients, they are more expensive than conventional tests and treatments. But they deliver more value to patients and may help control overall health care spending. Therefore, health insurance companies should cover these tests and treatments. Personalized medicine is promising, but health care costs are already high and some of these new tests and treatments are too expensive. In order to keep health care affordable, health insurance companies should not cover these tests and treatments. 63% Favor Coverage of Personalized Medicines

31% 89% Prior to Introduction of After Introduction of Imatinib Imatinib 5-Year Survival Rates for CML Patients Nearly Triple After Introduction of Imatinib Personalized Medicine Leads to Increased Survival Rates: Chronic Leukemias A new wave of molecularly targeted therapies have turned chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) from a deadly disease into one in which patients live close to normal life spans. Imatinib was the first in this new class of targeted therapies. Imatinib targets abnormal proteins found at the surface of certain cancer cells that signal for the cells to divide. Imatinib blocks these signals. Today, survival rates have improved dramatically as more drugs in this class have been approved and CML patients are living close to normal life spans. This drug [imatinib] really extends life for people who were facing almost certain death. That's the poster child for personalized medicine. -Michael Snyder, PhD, Stanford University Sources: TF Goss, et al., “Recognizing Value in Oncology Innovation,” Boston Healthcare Associates, Jun 2012; C Gambacorti-Passerini, et al., “Multicenter independent assessment of outcomes in chronic myeloid leukemia patients treated with imatinib,” J Natl Canc Inst 2011; 103(7): 553–61; American Cancer Society, “Cancer Facts and Figures 2012,” 2012; BJ Druker, et al., "Five-year follow-up of patients “ receiving imatinib for chronic myeloid leukemia,” NEJM 2006; 355(23):240817.; S Mukherjee, “The revolution will be personalized: An interview with two Stanford geneticists,” BioPharmaDIVE, Oct 2014. 2  Benefiting Patients and the Health Care System 18

Personalized Medicine Yields Treatment Breakthroughs: Metastatic Melanoma New targeted therapies and immunotherapies – medicines that harness the patient’s immune system to attack cancer cells – are improving survival rates. Metastatic melanoma is an aggressive cancer with a 5-year survival rate of 15-20%. In 2002, a mutation in the BRAF gene was identified and found to be present in ~ 50% of all melanomas. This mutation leads to the overproduction and spread of cancer cells. This discovery led to the development and FDA approval of 3 new targeted drugs that are improving the overall survival rate compared to chemotherapy. Three new immunotherapies are also changing the treatment landscape. These medicines target proteins that prevent the immune system from attacking cancer cells.

Personalized Medicine Helps Predict Treatment Response: Metastatic Colorectal Cancer In recent years, scientists have identified the molecular receptor on colorectal cancer cells that causes them to multiply (epidermal growth factor receptor, or EGFR) New medicines that target these receptors are improving survival outcomes. Cetuximab, a type of targeted monoclonal antibody therapy, blocks the signals from EGFR. Continuing research revealed that the presence of a specific mutation in a particular gene (KRAS) is associated with resistance to cetuximab. Testing for the KRAS gene allows for better targeting of therapy and improved patient survival. 50% 65% 1975-1977 2004-2010 5-Year Survival Rates for Colorectal Cancer Patients Sources: National Cancer Institute Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program, “SEER Cancer Statistics Review 1975-2011,” http://seer.cancer.gov/; National Cancer Institute SEER Program, “SEER Stat Fact Sheets: Colon and Rectum Cancer,” http://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/colorect.html (both cites accessed May 2015). 2  Benefiting Patients and the Health Care System 20

Personalized Medicine Enables Targeting of the Underlying Cause of Disease: Cystic Fibrosis Kalydeco is the first available treatment that targets the defective CFTR protein, which is the underlying cause of cystic fibrosis. This is a breakthrough therapy for the cystic fibrosis community because current therapies only treat the symptoms of this genetic disease. -Janet Woodcock, MD, Director, FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research Cystic fibrosis is a serious genetic disorder caused by mutations in a gene that encodes for a protein called CFTR, which regulates the absorption and secretion of salt and water in the body. Ivacaftor targets the defective CFTR protein in patients that have one of several, resulting in significant and sustained improvement in lung function.

Biomarker: A biological molecule found in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a condition or disease. A biomarker may be used to see how well the body responds to a treatment for a disease or condition. Also called molecular marker and signature molecule. Companion Diagnostic: Companion diagnostics are a test or measurement intended to assist physicians in making treatment decisions for their patients. They do so by revealing the efficacy and/or safety of a specific drug or class of drugs for a targeted patient group or sub-groups. Diagnostics: A program or routine that uses symptoms or characteristics to identify the nature of a medical condition. Gene Mutation: A permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. Mutations range in size from a single DNA building block (DNA base) to a large segment of a chromosome. Gene mutations occur in two ways: they can be inherited from a parent or acquired during a person's lifetime. Genetic Marker: An alteration in DNA that may indicate an increased risk of developing a specific disease or disorder. Genome: The complete genetic material of an organism. Genomic Sequencing: A laboratory method that is used to determine the entire genetic makeup of a specific organism or cell type. This method can be used to find changes in areas of the genome that may be important in the development of specific diseases, such as cancer. Personalized Medicine: Sometimes referred to as precision or individualized medicine, personalized medicine, is an emerging field of medicine that uses diagnostic tools to identify specific biological markers, often genetic, to help assess which medical treatments and procedures will be best for each patient. Targeted Therapies: A type of treatment that uses drugs or other substances to identify and attack specific types of cancer cells with less harm to normal cells. 34 Glossary Source: National Cancer Institute. “NCI Dictionary of Cancer Terms.” Available at: : http://www.cancer.gov/dictionary?cdrid=561717 (Accessed on May 2015).
