3 Investment Highlights SciVac Ltd. is a world leader in protein engineering Flagship product positioned to dominate billion-dollar hepatitis B market SciVac s Sci-B-Vac product is a 3rd-generation hepatitis B vaccine. Significant unmet medical need Hepatitis B remains a global health problem. Sci-B-Vac addresses critical shortcomings in existing vaccines. Sci-B-Vac Proven breakthrough technology Sci-B-Vac has demonstrated performance across 20+ company-sponsored and investigatorinitiated clinical studies Risk-mitigated Phase III regulatory path Sci-B-Vac is already approved in 10 countries, with a favorable safety & efficacy profile in over 300,000 patients. Strategic Investors OPKO Health Inc. (NYSE: OPK) is a strategic investor in SciVac LTD. Additional pipeline opportunities S-Graft, a biological therapeutic for graft-vs-host disease (GVHD), a $650MM market opportunity addressing a significant unmet medical need. Potential for label expansion of Sci-B-Vac into the >$2.5B hepatitis B therapeutic market. 3
4 The Problem: Hepatitis B Hepatitis B kills 1.2 million people every year What is Hepatitis B (HBV)? HBV is a highly contagious virus that attacks the liver. Many people never clear the virus and are chronically infected. These carriers can develop chronic hepatitis, leading to liver failure and death. How is it spread? Infection is transmitted through sexual contact, contact with contaminated blood, and from mother to child. Who is at high risk? Patients with diabetes, cancer, HIV, celiac, end stage renal disease, infants born to hepatitis B carriers, adults over forty, and overweight persons are at higher risk, because members of these groups often do not respond to current vaccines. 4
5 Global Prevention Through Vaccination Over one billion doses of vaccine administered since 1982 How the world is currently being protected 170+ countries have infant vaccination programs. Over a billion vaccines have been administered since 1982 Protection requires 3 injections over 6 months. 1,000,000,000 0 mo. 1 mo. 6 mo. 5
6 Hepatitis B Persists Despite Global Vaccination 400 million people are carriers The Global Situation <2% Prevalence 2-8% Prevalence >8% Prevalence 2,000,000,000 alive today have been infected with the virus 400,000,000 people are carriers, contagious and at risk of liver disease 4,000,000 people per year suffer from acute hepatitis B 1,200,000 die every year from hepatitis B 6
7 Urgent Need for Better Vaccine Current vaccines leave hundreds of millions of people at risk High Risk Patients Many patients with high risk diseases such as diabetes, cancer, celiac, HIV, and end stage renal disease do not respond to current vaccines. Infants Born to Carriers Current vaccines do not sufficiently protect the 2 million infants born to infected mothers worldwide every year. Travelers, Military, & Medical Personnel Current vaccines take 6 months to provide protection, and often fail to work for persons overweight or older than 40, leaving many travelers, military, and medical personnel without protection from the deadly virus. Populations at Risk Est. Global Size % Who do not Respond to Current Vaccines Diabetes 350 million Undetermined Chronic liver disease 300 million 50% Celiac disease 70 million 54-68% Cancer Chronic renal failure & dialysis HIV (children & adolescents) 14 million new annually 10-66% 10 million 34-81% 3 million 30% Pre/post transplant 1 million 10-66% 7
8 The Solution: Sci-B-Vac Only commercial HBV vaccine to mimic all 3 viral surface antigens. Already used in 300,000+ patients to date. Sci-B-Vac Achieves: Rapid onset of protection High levels of anti-hbv antibodies (HBsAb) At lower dosage than competing vaccines Mimics all three viral antigens Sci-B-Vac 2nd Generation Vaccines Mammalian cell derived vaccines with the 3 antigens Pre-S1 Pre-S2 S Demonstrated across a range of patient populations. Only mimic one of three viral antigens rdna yeast derived 8
9 Sci-B-Vac Performance in Non-responders to Conventional HBV vaccines Sci-B-Vac Can achieve higher response rates in non-responders to conventional HBV vaccines. Study of 333 medical workers who did not respond to traditional vaccination 49.1% 81.7% Response Rate Engerix-B 3 x20 mcg Sci-B-Vac 3 x 10 mcg % of Patients who responded to a repeat course of Sci-B-Vac vs. marketleading Engerix-B (P<0.001). 10
10 Sci-B-Vac - Faster Response & Superior Protection Immunogenicity of Sci-B-Vac in Healthy Adults; x2 Vaccination Scheme (N=36, Comparative Study) Thirty-six healthy volunteers without evidence of systemic disease and tested negative for anti-hbc and anti-hbs antibodies, were randomized by draw to receive either 2 i.m. doses at 0 and 6 months of Sci-B-Vac (10 mcg/dose) or 20 mcg of Engerix-B Sci-B-Vac 10 mcg Engerix-B 20 mcg % of Patients Seroprotected W1 W2 W3 W4 W24 Weeks After Single Injection Following primary immunization, seroprotection occurred in 6%, 39%, 53% and 60% in the Sci-B-Vac group at weeks 1, 2, 3 and 4, compared with 0%, 12%, 18% and 12.5% in the Engerix-B vaccine group, respectively.six months following injection of one dose, seroprotection was 70% in Sci-B- Vac and 25% Engerix-B recipients At month 7, 100% seroprotection was achieved in both groups who received two vaccine doses,while anti- HBV Antibody levels rose from 81 to 28,800 miu/ml in recipients of Sci-B-Vac and from 12 to 923 miu/ in recipients of Engerix- B. 30,000 1, Sci-B-Vac 20 mcg Engerix-B 40 mcg 28, Sci-B-Vac induces faster seroprotection against hepatitis B, within 4 24 weeks after the first dose. Two doses of Sci-B-Vac instead of the conventional three may be sufficient to induce adequate seroprotection. Sci-B-Vac induces higher immune response. Shapira et al. J. of Hepatology
11 Sci-B-Vac - Protection for At Risk Infants Efficacy of Sci-B-Vac in Neonates Born to HBsAg*-positive Carrier Mothers *HBsAg = HBV Surface Antigen (N=88, Comparative Study) Chronically infected HBsAg positive pregnant women were recruited in Hadassah Medical Center. Neonates received Sci-B-Vac at 5 mcg dose at 0, 1 and 6 months or Engerix-B at 10 mcg dose at 0, 1 and 6 months % of Subjects Sci-B-Vac 15 mcg Engerix-B 30 mcg 0 HBsAg+ HBc Total Sci-B-Vac 15 mcg Engerix-B 30 mcg 0 < >1000 % Distribution of HBsAb titer, miu/ml Sci-B-Vac shown to reduce HBV vertical transmission (mother to baby) and to trigger early HBV clearance. US EU HBsAg+ In Pregnancy China/Taiwan 67,000 cases pa 130,000 cases pa 1.8 mil cases pa The HBsAb titers* in children vaccinated with Sci-B-Vac were significantly higher than the HBsAb titers in children following vaccination with Engerix-B Of neonates that received Sci-B-Vac, only 14.29% were infected by vertical transmission, and none remain positive to HBsAg. *Titer = measured level of HBsAb (anti-hbv antibodies) No patients vaccinated with Sci-B-Vac shows HBsAb titers <10 miu/ml, while among the patients vaccinated with Engerix, 13.3% had HBsAb titer <10 miu/ml. Of neonates that received Engerix-B, 23.33% were infected by vertical transmission, and 10% remain positive to HBsAg. R Safadi, et al. Sci-B-Vac is superior to Engerix-B for preventing HBV vertical transmission. 49th European Association for the Study of the Liver International Liver Congress (EASL 2014). London, April 9-13,
12 Sci-B-Vac - Protection Even in ESRD Non-Responders Efficacy of Sci-B-Vac in Naïve and Non-responder ESRD Patients (N=193, Prospective, randomized, controlled study) Prospective, randomized, controlled study comparing Engerix-B to Sci-B-Vac, in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD), performed at Tel Aviv Medical Center Assessed all 193 hemodialysis patients, of whom 62 (32.1%) were seropositive, and 8 (4.1%) were chronic HBV carriers Sci-B-Vac Engerix-B Single Dose 10 mcg 40 mcg Cumulative Dose 3 x 10 mcg 4 x 40 mcg 97 patients agreed to participate, and were randomized into non-previously vaccinated, and previously vaccinated groups Engerix-B 160 mcg Sci-B-Vac 30 mcg Mean HBsAb, miu/ml; 7 months Injections 3 4 Seroconversion 62.5% 52% Non-vaccinated (n=60)received Engerix-B 40 mg IM at 0,1,3,6 months, or Sci-B-Vac 10 mg IM at time 0,1,6 months Sci-B-Vac 3 doses of 10 mcg, as compared to 4 doses of 40 mcg Engerix-B, achieved 62.5% seroprotection in previously nonvaccinated patients This analysis shows Sci-B-Vac achieves higher levels of HbsAb (anti-hbv antibodies), at lower doses and fewer injections than Engerix-B The HBsAb titers in ESRD patients vaccinated with Sci-B-Vac were significantly higher than the HBsAb titers in ESRD patients following vaccination with Engerix-B Weinstein T
13 Sci-B-Vac - High Upside, Risk-mitigated Path Demonstrated performance in 20+ company-sponsored or investigatorinitiated trials, involving more than 5000 enrollees Significantly increased seroprotection after first injection as compared to conventional vaccines Effective in a high % of non-responders to conventional vaccines Administered to over 300,000 patients to date, with favorable safety and efficacy profiles. Protects infants of infected mothers Potential protection from emerging HBV escape mutants Potential label expansion into a $2.5B* chronic hepatitis B market, pending Proof-of Concept in therapeutic human studies. *2015 Estimate Including: Vaccines, small molecule antivirals, and interferons (Source: J.P.
