Clinically Meaningful Changes in FVC in IPF Studies (1)
The Clinical Reality:
~2/3 of IPF patients have little decline in FVC in clinical studies of ~ one year
~1/3 of IPF patients have significant decline in FVC 
Therefore MEAN decline in FVC of a study population is not the best measure
of treatment effect size
What is the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in FVC in IPF patients?
MCID is the difference to an individual patient
that is meaningful
MCID for FVC in an IPF patient is a 2-6% decline*
FVC declines of 5-10% in an IPF patient translate to 2-5X risk of death*
Categorical Change in FVC is the clinically meaningful metric:

Why is Categorical Change in FVC the best metric of clinical
meaningfulness?
Measures
changes
in
an
individual
patient
Addresses the statistical problem of the population mean
Can be easily tied to the MCID (a population mean cannot)
Relevant to clinicians and regulators
Esbriet label in Europe and Canada only reference Categorical FVC

ASCEND Summary and Timeline
ASCEND
is
designed
to
win
built
on
our
decade
of
IPF
experience
Large, one-year study
Over 95% power using CAPACITY ITT results
Centralized procedures for more homogeneity
Enrichment Strategy for patients with more FVC progression
Excellent Study Conduct
High retention rate (>90% of patients remain in study)
High persistence rate (>90% of patients are on study medicine)
High roll-over rate to open-label “RECAP”
study (>95%)
Top-line data expected in early Q2 2014

Financial Outlook


Worldwide Esbriet Revenue
Nine consecutive quarters of
growth since launch 
168% revenue growth in 2013
New countries –
one-time effects
due to NPP conversion and pent-
up demand
Launched countries –
greater
penetration and persistence
2014 guidance range of $115 to
