  2. The KRAS gene encodes the human cellular homolog of the transforming gene Kirsten rat sarcoma-2 virus KRAS is a self-inactivating signal transducer It cycles from GDP bound (“off” state) to GTP bound (“on” state) in response to receptor activation This response is transient due to the intrinsic GTPase activity KRAS oncogenes harbor activating mutations yielding proteins with reduced GTPase activity These activating KRAS mutations are among the most common oncogenic alterations in cancer1 The KRAS Oncogene 1Malumbres and Barbacid.

  5. Patient samples from 3 Amgen panitumumab monotherapy, single-arm, phase 2 trials in metastatic colorectal cancer were obtained under an ancillary biomarker protocol The majority of patient samples were archived tumor samples from the primary resection KRAS mutational status was determined using cloning and sequencing of DNA isolated from paraffin-embedded tumor samples KRAS mutational status was correlated with clinical outcomes including response, progression-free survival, and overall survival KRAS Analysis of Single-Arm, Panitumumab Monotherapy Studies

  6. Objective Tumor Response PR partial response; SD, stable disease; PD, disease progression

Median (95% CI) in Weeks _ Mutant: 7.4 (7.1–8.0) - - Wild-type: 16.2 (8.3–23.7) Progression-Free Survival for Panitumumab-Treated Patients by KRAS Status 1.0 Proportion with PFS 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 0.0 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 Weeks From Enrollment Patients at Risk: Mutant 24 24 6 6 4 3 2 2 Wild-type 38 38 25 25 17 14 13 7 6 3 3

JCO. 2007;25:1658-1664.

  9. Objectives and Analysis Methodology • Primary Objective • To assess if the effect of panitumumab on progression-free survival (PFS) was significantly greater in patients with wild-type KRAS compared to patients with mutant KRAS • Secondary Objectives • To assess whether panitumumab improves PFS compared with BSC alone in patients with wild-type KRAS • To assess whether panitumumab improves OS compared with BSC alone in patients with wild-type KRAS Test for a PFS effect among all randomized patients at a 5% level Test for quantitative PFS effect interaction, i.e., wild-type effect > mutant p ≤ 0.05 p > 0.05 Compare PFS in wild-type KRAS subset STOP p ≤ 0.05 p > 0.05 Compare OR & OS in wild-type KRAS subset STOP

  10. DNA was isolated from fixed tumor samples Mutant KRAS was detected using a KRAS mutation kit (DxS Ltd, Manchester, UK) that used allele-specific, real-time PCR The kit can detect approximately 1% of mutant DNA in a background of wild-type genomic DNA The test identifies 7 somatic mutations in codons 12 and 13 Gly 12 Asp Gly 12 Ala Gly 12 Val Gly 12 Ser Assay Used to Detect KRAS Mutational Status • Gly 12 Arg • Gly 12 Cys • Gly 13 Asp

  22. Overview of Safety From KRAS Analysis (Panitumumab-Treated Patients) AE, Adverse Event

  23. Conclusions • The efficacy of panitumumab monotherapy in metastatic CRC seems confined to patients with wild-type KRAS • KRAS genotyping of tumors should be strongly considered in patients with metastatic CRC being treated with panitumumab monotherapy • Ongoing studies in 1st and 2nd lines will prospectively examine the effect of panitumumab in combination with chemotherapy in patients with wild-type and mutant KRAS tumors • Future studies should investigate the role of KRAS mutational status in the adjuvant setting in colon cancer and in other indications
