Idarucizumab (BI ) Aripazine (PER977) Factor Xa inhibitor Universal No Factor IIa inhibitor No Specific for dabigatran LMWH/ fondaparinux Yes (antithrombinmediated Factor Xa inhibition) No Universal Universal Universal Status Phase II ongoing phase III started (apixaban/ rivaroxaban) planned (edoxaban) Phase I completed; phase III started Phase I completed phase II ongoing

15 ANNEXA TM Andexanet alfa A universal Factor Xa inhibitor Reversal Agent Normal FXa Serine in protease catalytic triad Binding pocket! Andexanet alfa is inactivated Factor Xa Lower molecular weight owing to truncated chain No GLA domain Mutated serine Active binding site to Factor Xa substrates γ-carboxyglutamic acid (GLA) domain Andexanet alfa! The molecule has no catalytic activity and does not bind to the protaminase complex Mutated serine in protease catalytic triad Binding pocket! Intact binding site allows binding to: Direct Factor Xa inhibitors, e.g. Rivaroxaban, Apixaban ATIII activated by LMWH or fondaparinux Truncated chain No GLA domain

20 Addition of Andexanet alfa decreases rivaroxaban-induced blood loss Lu G, et al. Nature Medicine 2013; 19:

21 Andexanet alfa (ANNEXA TM ) - Human studies Phase I single ascending-dose study in healthy volunteers In 32 healthy volunteers andexanet alfa was generally well tolerated with no apparent safety signals Phase II proof-of-concept studies in healthy volunteers Results from 4 separate studies demonstrated that andexanet alfa immediately reversed the anticoagulation activity of apixaban, rivaroxaban edoxaban and enoxaparin No thrombotic events, serious or severe adverse events or antibodies against FX or FXa were reported

22 Results from Phase 2 trials of Andexanet alfa and FXa inhibitors Shah N, et al. AMSRJ 2014; 1(1):16 28

23 ANNEXA-A: Apixaban Healthy volunteers aged years Apixaban 5 mg twice daily for 4 days n=24 Apixaban Andexanet alfa 400 mg iv bolus n=9 Biomarker endpoints Primary end point: anti-fxa levels Secondary end points: Plasma free fraction of Apixaban and Thrombin generation levels Apixaban 3:1 ratio Andexanet alfa 400 mg iv bolus + 4 mg/min for 120 min Study participants will be followed for up to 43 days to assess safety

34 Healthy volunteer studies: Conclusions Idarucizumab infusion led to immediate, complete, and sustained reversal of dabigatran anticoagulant activity Idarucizumab had no prothrombotic effect as indicated by the Endogenous Thrombin Potential (ETP) Idarucizumab was safe and well tolerated, both alone and in combination with dabigatran Idarucizumab fulfils requirements for a fast-acting and specific antidote to dabigatran with a good safety profile Glund S et al. AHA 2013; abstract 17765

35 First patient trial of a NOAC-specific antidote Study to evaluate reversal of the anticoagulant effects of Dabigatran with idarucizumab in: Bleeding patients overt bleeding judged by the physician to require a reversal agent Surgical patients require an emergency surgery or procedure for a condition other than bleeding \250 Subjects, iv administration of 5g idarucizumab Started in April 2014, currently recruiting in >35 countries worldwide Estimated completion date: July 2017 NCT : Available at Accessed August 2014
