25
We Believe Changes to the Phase IIb Trial Design
Should Increase the Chance of Success in Phase III
4 cycles of therapy in the phase III trial
All patients receive modeling in the phase III trial
All patients must have greater than 12 months of
disease since diagnosis to enter the phase III trial
Mean net improvements in phase IIb penile
curvature and bother domain for modeling
arm would have met statistical significance
using phase III co-primary endpoint
requirements


26
Business Development Efforts Expected to
Focus on Building Out Pipeline
Leverage current infrastructure of Testim and
XIAFLEX field forces with marketed products
Seeking Phase II and later assets in Urology,
Endocrinology, Rheumatology, and Orthopedics
Niche products with specialty physician call
points also represent development opportunities

BTC Litigation Update
On Feb. 15, 2011, AUXL filed a complaint against BioSpecifics Technologies
Corp.
(BTC)
alleging
that
BTC
has
breached
the
parties’
Amended
and
Restated
Development and License Agreement dated as of December 11, 2008 by its
commencement of clinical trials for the use of injectable collagenase to treat
canine
lipomas
without
the
prior
knowledge
and
approval
of
the
parties’
Joint
Development Committee (JDC). 
AUXL is seeking preliminary and permanent injunctions ordering BTC to, among
other things:
suspend its canine lipoma clinical trial known as Chien-803 and
refrain from initiating any new clinical trials related to collagenase, both until such time
as
any
such
trial
has
been
reviewed
and
approved
by
the
parties’
JDC
pursuant
to
the
terms of the Agreement.
AUXL also seeking a declaratory judgment as to the rights and responsibilities of
the JDC under the Agreement
Suit filed in the Court of Common Pleas, Chester County, Pennsylvania
Court
