Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma/ B-cell TargetsB-Cell Signaling Kinases CAL-101 PCI-32765 • B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling is required for tumor expansion and proliferation • Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (Btk) and PI3-Kinase are essential elements of the BCR signaling pathway • Inhibitors of Btk and PI3-kinase block BCR signaling and induce apoptosis Nat Rev Imm 2:945

Study Design • Two CAL-101 dose levels • CAL-101 100mg bid + Bendamustine 90mg/m2 d1,2 • CAL-101 100mg bid + Rituximab 375mg/m2 d1 • CAL-101 150mg bid + Bendamustine 90mg/m2 d1,2 • CAL-101 150mg bid + Rituximab 375mg/m2 d1 • Relapsed/refractory indolent NHL (iNHL) or CLL • Accrual:
Patient Characteristics Median age 64 years (range 41 – 87) Males 65% Refractory disease 43% Median number of prior therapy: 3 (range 1 – 9)
RESULTS: • Efficacy • Toxicity (Grade 3-4) • Neutropenia in Benda+CAL: 10/24 • Thrombocytopenia in Benda+CAL: 10/24 • Increased AST/ALT: • 6/28 in iNHL • 1/21 in CLL
Conclusions • CAL-101 shows acceptable toxicity • Very Promising clinical activity in both Rituximab and bendamustine cohorts • Further studies on-going

“These two studies cap a remarkable decade of progress in CML therapy and, for some, may raise the question of whether we have reached the limit of what we can hope to achieve. We know that imatinib induces a long-lasting remission but not a cure. Presumably, dasatinib and nilotinib will perform similarly, but with deeper, longerlasting remissions.” Kantarjian et. al.

Major Molecular Response Rates:Intent-to-treat Population a a a a a aIndicates statistical significance with a P value 0.05. P values for all timepoints with the exception of Month 12 were exploratory and provided for descriptive purposes only. • Cumulative MMR rates by 18 months were 55% for bosutinib and 45% for imatinib, and cumulative CMR rates by 18 months were 18% and 10%, respectively • Median time to first MMR was faster with bosutinib (36.9 weeks) compared with imatinib (72.3 weeks) Gambacorti-Passerini et. al.

Transformation to AP/BP and Overall Deaths a AP, accelerated phase; BP blast phase. aTreatment failure includes both disease progression and lack of efficacy (including transformation to AP/BP). • Transformation to AP/BP CML occurred in 4 (2%) patients in the bosutinib arm and 13 (5%) in the imatinib arm while on study treatment; no new transformation events have occurred on bosutinib since the 12-month primary analysis, compared with 3 new events on imatinib • Overall deaths occurred in 6 patients receiving bosutinib versus 13 receiving imatinib during the study, the majority of which occurred after treatment discontinuation • Deaths due to CML progression occurred in 5 patients receiving bosutinib and 9 receiving imatinib Gambacorti-Passerini et. al.
