Patients With a Change in Tropism Result from R5 at Screening to D/M at Baseline had a Lower Median CD4+ Count • Of the 1042 patients with R5 virus at screening, approximately 8% had a change in tropism result between screening and baseline to non-R5 virus, prior to a change in ARV regimen or administration of study drug • This subgroup had a lower median CD4+ count and higher mean HIV-1 RNA at screening MOTIVATE 1 & 2
OBT alone MVC QD + OBT MVC BID + OBT Outcome of Patients with non-R5 Virus at Baseline (Week 24) Includes all patients who received at least one dose of study medication HIV-1 RNA <50 c/mL CD4+ Count Change Tropism result at baseline: D/M R5 Patients (%) N= 17 33 33 187 362 377 MOTIVATE 1 & 2-Week 24
CD4+ Count Increase in Patients Failing Maraviroc is Greater Even in Patients With D/M or X4 Virus at Failure Data excludes patients who had no tropism result at time of failure* Includes patients with non-R5 tropism result at baseline MOTIVATE 1 & 2 Lalezari J et al.

Patients Failing Maraviroc With D/M or X4 Virus Fail Earlier Than Those Failing with R5 Virus Tropism result, Baseline → Treatment Failure: • Time to maraviroc treatment failure with a D/M or X4 virus was approximately 30 days shorter than for failure with R5 virus R5 → D/M or X4 R5 → R5 Patients (%) Early failure (≤ day 70) (N=82) Late failure (> day 70) (N=59) MOTIVATE 1 & 2
No Association Between Category C Events and Treatment-emergent D/M or X4 Virus • The number of patients experiencing CDC Category C events in the study was low: 14 (6.7%) OBT alone, 26 (6.3%) MVC QD and 18 (4.2%) MVC BID • There was no evidence of an increased rate of Category C events in patients receiving maraviroc + OBT vs those receiving OBT alone despite the extended treatment duration on maraviroc1,2 • Only 5 patients with R5 virus at baseline who experienced a Category C event had D/M or X4 virus at the time of the event (3 on MVC QD, 1 on MVC BID, and 1 on OBT alone) • All 5 patients had a baseline CD4 count <20 cells/mm3 and were therefore at high risk of developing a Category C event • Category C events were therefore not associated with treatment-emergent CXCR4-using virus MOTIVATE 1 & 2 1.

Reversion to R5 after Cessation of Maraviroc Treatment • For maraviroc patients with D/M or X4 virus at treatment failure and with in-study off-drug (ISOD) follow-up data, virus in 68% of patients was R5 at last follow-up • Time of follow-up was significantly shorter for patients with D/M or X4 virus at their last study visit • Where follow-up >1 month, virus in 30 out of 31 patients reverted to R5 during ISOD follow-up MOTIVATE 1 & 2

Selective Inhibition of R5 Viruses Can Lead to a Change in Tropism Result to D/M or X4 • Maraviroc selectively inhibits R5 virus • If maraviroc is administered as part of a sub-optimal regimen, pre-existing low (undetected) levels of D/M or X4 virus will emerge as the dominant viral population • Since the D/M or X4 virus is pre-existing, time to failure is shorter than with R5 virus (where maraviroc resistance must be selected de novo) • Similar to the rapid outgrowth of pre-existing (archived) drug-resistant virus when failed ARV therapy is reinitiated after treatment interruption • After withdrawal of maraviroc, selective pressure on R5 virus is removed, allowing R5 virus to re-emerge as the dominant population • Reversion to R5 takes approximately 16 weeks, consistent with loss of 3TC1 or enfuvirtide2 resistance after withdrawal of these ARVs 1.

Conclusions • Tropism changes are associated with MVC treatment failure • Patients failing MVC therapy had higher mean CD4+ count increases even in the context of emergence of D/M or X4 virus • Time to failure was shorter for patients failing with D/M or X4 virus vs R5 virus • Patients who failed MVC therapy with D/M or X4 virus reverted to an R5 virus tropism result after cessation of MVC therapy • There was no association between Category C events and treatment-emergent D/M or X4 virus • These data are consistent with the selective and reversible suppression of R5 virus during MVC therapy, resulting in detection of D/M or X4 virus at time of failure in two-thirds of failing patients
