Adaptive Designs

• Study 201 satisfies the key principles of FDA Draft Guidance for Adaptive Designs, issued in September 2018*2
• Bayesian response-adaptive design is a legitimate statistical method and enables early decision making and early evaluation for treatment effect by randomizing more patients to treatment groups with higher response based on interim analysis
• The study maintained integrity and allowed interpretability by using pre-defined design, with limited access of comparative interim results (only to external experts) and well controlled Type I error*3 contributing to reproducible treatment effects
• Conventional (pre-specified) statistical analysis was used to assess the observed data at the end of the double-blinded treatment period of 18 months
Study 201 is a placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group, randomized study in 856 patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) or mild Alzheimer’s dementia (collectively known as early Alzheimer’s disease) with confirmed amyloid pathology in the brain. Patients were randomized to five dose regimens, 2.5 mg/kg bi-weekly, 5 mg/kg monthly, 5 mg/kg bi-weekly, 10 mg/kg monthly and 10 mg/kg bi-weekly, or placebo. *1: Investigational.

Data of highest dose arm (10mg/kg bi-weekly)
on ADCOMS*2 • 30% less decline observed in highest dose arm,
63% in APOE4 carriers and 7% in APOE4 non-carriers. Treatment effect was not thought to be due to an imbalance in subject allocation by APOE4 status (APOE4 carrier: 48 subjects, APOE4 non-carrier: 113 subjects). Conversely, the imbalance may have underestimated the overall BAN2401 treatment effect

• Pooling the highest dose arm and 10 mg/kg monthly doses corrects APOE4 imbalance and results in less decline on ADCOMS vs. placebo at 18 months of:
‒ 21% overall (n*3=414) ‒ 25% for APOE4 carriers (n*3=273) ‒ 6% for APOE4 non-carriers (n*3=141)
• PK modeling suggests that Cavg is a key driver of dose response between 10 mg/kg bi-weekly and monthly. This analysis supported the results that highest dose arm showed higher treatment effect than 10mg/kg monthly arm
Analyses were based on protocol-specified Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) models with longitudinal assessment of data for all subjects

- Substrate selectivity of BACE1/2 may be important for neuronal/synaptic maintenance and brain immunity*3
- Preclinical studies did not demonstrate serious adverse reactions, such as synaptic dysfunction, hypopigmentation, and motor dysfunction
• Study 202 investigated a range of doses and focused on selecting a dose (50mg/day) with >50% reduction in CSF A-beta, but not higher than 75% - Dose decision guided by APP A673T (Icelandic mutation) variant
that reduces A-beta production by ~40%; carriers of the variant show ~75% lower risk of AD*4,5

Elenbecestat*1
Summary • Relatively selective BACE1 inhibitor, elenbecestat is developed with careful
examination to balance risk and benefit, hoping to differentiate from other BACE inhibitors
• The study results support its exploratory endpoints by showing significant difference of brain A-beta and trend of less decline on clinical symptoms. And also, initial impact on cognitive function seen in other BACE inhibitors’ clinical studies has also not been observed
• Selected optimal dose setting for Phase III studies (MISSION AD) by confirming balance of expected effect to inhibit A-beta production and safety
• No signals have been observed for safety concerns from generated data (Satisfied safety evaluations for MISSION AD by Data Safety Monitoring Board over 6 times)
• MISSION AD*2 is ongoing, aiming for full enrollment completion in FY2018

The results are consistent with previous interim analyses
Long-term extension (LTE) Phase Ib study (Additional analyses at 36 months and 48 months)*2
Amyloid plaque levels as measured by PET continued to decrease in a dose- and time- dependent manner in patients from the titration
cohort at 36 months and fixed-dose cohorts at 48 months
Analyses of exploratory clinical endpoints CDR-SB*3 and MMSE*4 suggest a continued benefit on the rate of clinical decline
over 36 months and 48 months, respectively
Phase III studies (ENGAGE and EMERGE) Achieved full-enrollment in July 2018
*1: Investigational. Co-development with Purdue Pharma. *2: Proof of concept *3: A type of circadian rhythm sleep disorder where the pattern of sleep and wakefulness that repeats itself over a 24-hour period in healthy individuals is broken down, and sleeping and waking occur instead at various times during the day and night. *4: The most common AEs in Study 202 were constipation, somnolence, arthralgia, headache and nightmare. *5: The most common AEs in Study 303 were somnolence, headache, and influenza. *6: The most common AEs in Study 304 were headache and somnolence. 25
