The Opportunity in Movement Disorders

Serious Medical Conditions That Share Common Underlying Mechanism

Major movement disorders:

Huntington’s disease (HD)

Tardive dyskinesia (TD) Tourette syndrome (TS)

Common symptoms: Tics, chorea, dyskinesia, and dystonia

Significant unmet medical need: Social distress, disability, physical injury, loss of independence, and interference with employment and activities of daily living

Significantly underserved conditions:

HD: One FDA-approved drug (Tetrabenazine) ; significant limitations; ~ 5% of patients treated TD: No approved drug in the US

TS: One approved drug (Aripiprazole) with significant limitations

SD-809: The Promise of Deuterated Tetrabenazine

Demonstrated, Differentiated Pharmacokinetic Profile

Targeted deuterium chemical modifications in an approved drug

DEUTERIUM

Advantages of D Substitution:

No change in shape, size, charge, or target pharmacology of small molecules Can improve PK: 8x stronger C-D bond attenuates metabolism and increases half life Confers several potential advantages

—Less frequent dosing —Improved tolerability

—Reduced interpatient —Reduced drug variability in drug interactions metabolism —Reduced genotyping

Huntington’s

Disease

Tardive Dyskinesia

Tourette Syndrome

Estimated Patient Population (US)

~30,000 Patients ~350,000 Patients ~150,000 Patients

Mild 81% Moderate 84% Severe 84%

Mild 64% Moderate 94% Severe 85%

Mild 73% Moderate 90% Severe 89%

Other Considerations

Only one approved drug in the US: Tetrabenazine

– Only 5% of patients treated

– 2014 sales of ~$300mm

– Annual price per patient of $80-$85k

– Established reimbursement landscape Received FDA orphan designation Expected launch in 2016

No approved treatment in the US

– Tetrabenazine is approved in the EU

Limited off-label usage of Tetrabenazine in the US despite significant clinical response

– Improved profile should result in increased usage Only one approved drug in the US: Aripiprazole

– Associated with drowsiness, agitation, weight gain, and sleep disturbances Limited off-label usage of Tetrabenazine despite significant clinical response Received FDA orphan designation

Majority of movement disorder patients treated by neurologists – Highly synergistic with Teva’s premier neuroscience sales force
