"We have had a very successful start to 2018, and we look forward to carrying this momentum forward throughout the rest of the year and beyond. We are extremely pleased that luspatercept, our lead product candidate and first-in-class erythroid maturation agent, achieved positive and highly statistically significant Phase 3 results in both the MEDALIST and BELIEVE trials, confirming our confidence in its clinical profile in myelodysplastic syndromes and beta-thalassemia," said Habib Dable, President and Chief Executive Officer of Acceleron. "We and our collaboration partner, Celgene, look forward to presenting the Phase 3 data at an upcoming medical congress and are focused on the execution of key regulatory activities, including US and EU submission in the first half of 2019. We believe luspatercept is a potential platform treatment to transform the lives of patients suffering from a range of hematologic diseases associated with anemia.
Added Mr. Dable: "Our neuromuscular and pulmonary programs achieved critical milestones, putting us in a position for important Phase 2 readouts for ACE-083 and sotatercept in 2019 and 2020, respectively."

Development Program Highlights

Hematology

Luspatercept:

Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS), Beta-Thalassemia, and Myelofibrosis (MF)
Luspatercept is a first-in-class erythroid maturation agent (EMA) designed to treat the late-stage erythroid maturation defect that results in chronic anemia and the need for regular red blood cell transfusions in adults with serious hematologic diseases. Luspatercept is part of the global collaboration between Acceleron and Celgene.

The MEDALIST and BELIEVE Phase 3 trials in patients with lower-risk MDS and transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia, respectively, met all primary and key secondary endpoints.

Data will be submitted to a future medical meeting for presentation in late 2018.

Acceleron and Celgene plan to submit regulatory filings in the United States and Europe in the first half of 2019.

Updated results from the ongoing Phase 2 trials in MDS and beta-thalassemia were presented at the 2018 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting and the 23rd Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA) (Free EHA Whitepaper) in June 2018.

The initiation of the COMMANDS Phase 3 trial in patients with lower-risk MDS who are treatment naïve is planned for the third quarter of 2018.

Enrollment and treatment are ongoing in the BEYOND Phase 2 trial in non-transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia and the Phase 2 trial in MF.

Neuromuscular Disease

ACE-083:

Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) and Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) Disease
ACE-083 is a locally-acting therapeutic designed to have a concentrated effect on muscle mass and strength in target muscles for diseases that cause focal muscle weakness. ACE-083 utilizes the "Myostatin+" approach to inhibit multiple TGF-beta ligands.

Preliminary results from Part 1 of the ACE-083 Phase 2 trial in patients with CMT disease were highlighted in oral and poster presentations at the 2018 Peripheral Nerve Society (PNS) Annual Meeting in July.

Part 2 of the Phase 2 trial in patients with CMT was recently initiated with preliminary results expected by the end of 2019.

The Company plans to present results from all Part 1 dose cohorts in the FSHD Phase 2 trial in October 2018.

Enrollment and treatment are ongoing in Part 2 of the Phase 2 trial in patients with FSHD and preliminary results are expected in the second half of 2019.

ACE-083 received FDA Fast Track status and Orphan Drug designation in FSHD.

ACE-2494:
ACE-2494 is designed to have a systemic effect on muscle mass and strength for diseases that cause muscle weakness throughout the body. ACE-2494 utilizes the "Myostatin+" approach to inhibit multiple TGF-beta ligands.

Enrollment and treatment are ongoing in the Phase 1 healthy volunteer trial with preliminary results expected in the first half of 2019.

Pulmonary Disease
Sotatercept:

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)

Sotatercept acts as a ligand trap for members of the TGF-beta superfamily directly involved in the BMP signaling pathway, which is proven critical for maintaining healthy pulmonary vasculature. In multiple preclinical studies in PAH, sotatercept significantly decreased pulmonary vessel muscularization, improved pulmonary arterial pressures, and decreased indicators of right heart failure.

The Company initiated the PULSAR Phase 2 trial in patients with PAH with preliminary results expected in the first half of 2020.

The Company plans to initiate an exploratory imaging study in Q1 2019 to provide additional understanding of endpoints in anticipation of a potential pivotal trial in the future.

In November 2018, the Company will host a PAH Research and Development Deep Dive event in New York City.

The event will include internal and external expert presentations to discuss disease background, current treatment landscape, key disease pathways including BMP signaling, Acceleron’s clinical development activities, and the latest sotatercept preclinical results.

"Our recent accomplishments represent important progress across our business, as we entered the clinic with our first monoclonal microbial, EDP1066, and continued to advance our broad portfolio of preclinical product candidates in a range of inflammatory and oncology indications," said Simba Gill, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Evelo. "Looking to the second half of 2018, we are focused on advancing EDP1815 and EDP1503 into their first clinical trials in inflammatory disease and oncology, respectively, as we seek to advance our diversified portfolio of monoclonal microbials toward ten potential clinical readouts between 2019 and 2020 across different diseases and underlying biologies. We are also committed to further understanding of the gut-body network more broadly, as highlighted by our recently-signed research collaboration with world-leaders at Harvard University, which will enable us to further explore the gut’s role in modulating immune activity throughout the body."

Second Quarter and Recent Business Highlights:

Pipeline:

In May 2018, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration accepted an Investigational New Drug application to begin a 70-patient open-label Phase 2 clinical trial of EDP1503, a monoclonal microbial for the treatment of cancer. The University of Chicago will conduct this investigator-sponsored open-label clinical trial, which is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of EDP1503 in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor in patients with metastatic melanoma.
In April 2018, Evelo dosed the first subject in its 96-subject Phase 1 clinical trial of EDP1066, a monoclonal microbial for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a range of daily doses of EDP1066 in healthy volunteers and in patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. Additional exploratory endpoints include the effect of EDP1066 on validated clinical measures of disease and on an integrated set of biomarkers.
Harvard University Research Collaboration:

In June 2018, Evelo entered into a research collaboration with scientists at Harvard University to study the gut-body network. Evelo will work with three of the world’s leading experts in immunology and microbiology at Harvard Medical School: Diane Mathis, Ph.D., the Morton Grove-Rasmussen Professor of Microbiology and Immunobiology, Christophe Benoist, M.D., Ph.D., the Morton Grove-Rasmussen Professor of Immunohematology, and Dennis Kasper, M.D., the William Ellery Channing Professor of Medicine and Professor of Microbiology and Immunobiology. The collaboration aims to further elucidate the mechanisms by which microbes acting on cells in the gut have the potential to treat disease elsewhere in the body. Under the multi-year agreement, Evelo has an exclusive option to license from Harvard intellectual property rights that may arise from this research collaboration.
Corporate:

In June 2018, Evelo was added to the Russell 3000, Russell 2000 and Russell Microcap Indexes as part of the Russell Investments’ annual reconstitution.
In May 2018, Evelo completed its initial public offering of common stock at $16.00 per share, raising $75.8 million in net proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses.
Upcoming Anticipated Milestones:

Initiation of the University of Chicago’s investigator-sponsored, open-label Phase 2 clinical trial of EDP1503 in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor in patients with metastatic melanoma expected in the second half of 2018.
Initiation of a Phase 1 clinical trial of EDP1815, an anti-inflammatory monoclonal microbial product candidate, in patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Initiation of a Phase 2 clinical trial of EDP1503 in combination with a checkpoint inhibitor in patients with multiple cancer types in the first half of 2019.
Initial clinical data from ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial of EDP1066 in patients with psoriasis and atopic dermatitis in the first half of 2019.
Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results:

Cash Position: As of June 30, 2018, cash and cash equivalents were $178.9 million, as compared to cash and cash equivalents of $38.2 million as of December 31, 2017. This increase was due to net proceeds of $81.3 million from the issuance of Series C Preferred Stock, net proceeds of $75.8 million from Evelo’s initial public offering and $5.0 million of additional drawings from Evelo’s existing debt facility, partially offset by cash used to fund operating activities for the first half of 2018. Evelo expects that its cash and cash equivalents will enable it to fund its planned operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements into the second half of 2020.
Research and Development Expenses: R&D expenses were $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase of $5.5 million was due primarily to increases in costs related to Evelo’s inflammation and gut-body network platform expenses as well as increased personnel costs.
General and Administrative Expenses: G&A expenses were $5.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase of $3.6 million was due primarily to increased general and administrative personnel costs, professional and consulting fees, and facility expenses supporting Evelo’s growing organization and public company infrastructure.
Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders: Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $16.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, or $0.85 per basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017, or $2.09 per basic and diluted share.

"In the second quarter, we continued to execute on the ZEJULA launch in the U.S. and Europe, and we are changing the treatment paradigm for women with recurrent ovarian cancer," said Lonnie Moulder, CEO of TESARO. "Following the results from our Phase 3 PRIMA trial, which is now fully enrolled, we hope to offer ZEJULA to women with newly diagnosed ovarian cancer, regardless of BRCA mutation status. Beyond ovarian cancer, our Phase 2 JASPER trial of ZEJULA in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody in first-line, non-small cell lung cancer is ongoing and we expect to share data at a medical meeting in the first half of 2019. Our immuno-oncology pipeline is advancing quickly, led by TSR-042, our anti-PD-1 antibody, for which we are on track to submit a biologic license application (BLA) in 2019. Initial data from AMBER, a trial of our anti-TIM-3 antibody TSR-022 in combination with TSR-042, have been submitted for inclusion in the SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) Annual Meeting in November, and include results from lung cancer patients who have progressed on prior anti-PD-1 treatment."

Recent Business Highlights

ZEJULA is the most utilized PARP inhibitor among ovarian cancer patients in the U.S., with more than 6,000 patients treated since its launch in April 2017. ZEJULA is now approved in 32 countries and reimbursed and launched in Germany, the U.K. and several other European countries.
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) made ZEJULA available to women with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer in England and Wales via the Cancer Drugs Fund (CDF) in June.
At the ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) meeting in June, results of the QUADRA study of ZEJULA monotherapy for the treatment of ovarian cancer were presented and included durable responses beyond patients with BRCA mutations and overall survival in the late-line ovarian cancer treatment setting. Results of the TOPACIO trial evaluating ZEJULA in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody were also presented and highlighted promising activity in platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer and triple-negative breast cancer beyond patients with BRCA mutations.
Enrollment was completed in the Phase 3 PRIMA trial of ZEJULA monotherapy for patients with first-line ovarian cancer regardless of biomarker status, and data from this study are anticipated in late 2019. Blinded, pooled interim safety data from PRIMA associated with a 200 milligram starting dose based upon baseline weight and platelet count were accepted for poster discussion at the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting in October.
TESARO divested the oral and intravenous formulations of VARUBI (rolapitant) in the U.S. and Canada to TerSera Therapeutics LLC for $40 million plus potential milestone payments and royalties.
Data from the GARNET registration trial for TSR-042 (anti-PD-1 antibody) in patients with MSI-high endometrial cancer were accepted for poster discussion at the ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting in October.
Enrollment continues in the Phase 1 AMBER trial of TSR-022 (anti-TIM-3 antibody) in combination with TSR-042 in tumor-specific cohorts, including lung cancer patients who have progressed on prior PD-1 therapy.
In the Phase 1 CITRINO trial, dosing of TSR-033 (anti-LAG-3 antibody) in combination with TSR-042 was initiated.
At the end of June, TESARO drew the $200 million second tranche under its term loan agreement with Pharmakon Advisors, LP.
Second Quarter 2018 Financial Results

TESARO reported net product revenue of $56.5 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to a total of $28.8 million for the second quarter of 2017, primarily due to growth in ZEJULA net revenue, which increased 108% to $53.9 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to $25.9 million for the second quarter of 2017.

Research and development expenses increased to $97.6 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to $71.4 million for the second quarter of 2017, primarily due to higher costs associated with the development of ZEJULA, TSR-042 and TSR-022, increased headcount, and research collaborations.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $100.0 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to $93.0 million for the second quarter of 2017, primarily due to increased headcount to support sales of ZEJULA in the U.S. and launches in Europe.

Operating expenses as described above include total non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $28.4 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to $23.5 million for the second quarter of 2017.

Net loss totaled $166.7 million, or ($3.04) per share, for the second quarter of 2018, compared to a net loss of $152.1 million, or ($2.82) per share, for the second quarter of 2017.

As of June 30, 2018, TESARO had approximately $575.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, excluding $35 million received from TerSera in the third quarter upon closing of the VARUBI divestiture, and approximately 54.9 million outstanding shares of common stock.

2018 Financial Guidance

TESARO is revising its 2018 financial guidance to reflect the divestiture of VARUBI in the U.S. and Canada, updated timing of clinical milestone payments, and updated expectations for the market penetration of PARP inhibitors for ovarian cancer maintenance treatment in the U.S.

In the second quarter, TESARO’s cash and cash equivalents balance declined by approximately $120 million, excluding the impact of the $196 million (net of lender fees) received from the term loan facility. Quarterly declines in cash and cash equivalents are expected to moderate over the remainder of 2018 and TESARO anticipates year-end 2018 cash and cash equivalents to be approximately $400 million, including the $35 million upfront payment received in the third quarter from the divestiture of VARUBI.

About ZEJULA (Niraparib)
ZEJULA (niraparib) is a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor indicated for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are in a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy. In preclinical studies, ZEJULA concentrates in the tumor relative to plasma, delivering greater than 90% durable inhibition of PARP 1/2 and a persistent antitumor effect. Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML), including some fatal cases, was reported in patients treated with ZEJULA. Discontinue ZEJULA if MDS/AML is confirmed. Hematologic adverse reactions (thrombocytopenia, anemia and neutropenia), as well as cardiovascular effects (hypertension and hypertensive crisis) have been reported in patients treated with ZEJULA. Monitor complete blood counts to detect hematologic adverse reactions, as well as to detect cardiovascular disorders, during treatment. ZEJULA can cause fetal harm and females of reproductive potential should use effective contraception. Please see full prescribing information, including additional important safety information, available at www.zejula.com.
