Cabozantinib: Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC)

Two randomized phase 3 pivotal trials of cabozantinib in CRPC •  COMET-1: vs. prednisone; overall survival (OS) endpoint

•  COMET-2: vs. mitoxantrone/prednisone; pain palliation endpoint

•  Potential to differentiate cabozantinib from other agents if successful

IDMC recommended COMET-1 proceed to final analysis

•  Recommended study continue unchanged; study remains blinded

•  Exelixis and CRO partner fully prepared for data read-out in 2014

•  Preparations for potential regulatory filings continue as well

Note: Cabozantinib is not approved for use under investigation in these trials.

Page 13: Exelixis Q1 2014 Financial Results

Cabozantinib: Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC)

Demonstrable activity in CRPC from phase 2 experience (n=144) •  Median OS of 10.8 months in patient population similar to COMET-1

•  Clinical meaningful pain relief in 57% of patients; reduction or discontinuation of narcotic analgesics in 55%

•  Bone scan response in 63%; reduction in measurable disease in 80%

•  Most common grade 3/4 AEs: fatigue (22%) and hypertension (14%)

Statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in OS have been seen at the final analysis in other large, randomized Phase 3 studies

•  Of six trials that resulted in approval, only three met endpoint at interim

•  Docetaxel (TAX327), sipuleucel-T (IMPACT), cabazitaxel (TROPIC) showed OS benefit at final analysis and were approved

Note: Cabozantinib is not approved for use under investigation in these trials.

Page 14: Exelixis Q1 2014 Financial Results

Earlier-stage CRPC: combination randomized phase 2 trial with abiraterone started Q4’13, well underway

CELESTIAL: phase 3 trial in advanced hepatocellular cancer (HCC)

•  Versus placebo in 760 patients previously treated with sorafenib; OS endpoint

•  Enrolling on multiple continents; top line data expected 2016/17

METEOR: phase 3 pivotal trial in metastatic renal cell cancer (RCC)

•  Versus everolimus in 650 patients who have received and progressed on/after at least one prior VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor; PFS endpoint, OS secondary endpoint

•  Top-line data expected in 2015; ~90% of sites now activated, reflecting a high level of interest due to early phase data with cabozantinib in RCC, the design of the phase 3 study, and a limited number of active competitive studies

Other Ongoing Studies of Cabozantinib

14 Note: Cabozantinib is not approved for use under investigation in these trials.
