AR101 Therapeutic Goal: Personalized Up-Dosing for Dependable Protection AR101 Treatment Protocol Up-Dosing Phase Ongoing Maintenance ~6 Months Each up-dose is 300 mg 240 mg conducted at the 300 mg Sachets 200 mg allergist’s office 160 mg for At-Home 120 mg Daily Maintenance 80 mg Dosing 40 mg Initial 20 mg Escalation 12 mg 6 mg 6 mg Calendar Pack for At-Home 3 mg 0.5 mg Dosing • Start at a low dose (~1/500th of a peanut) • Time between steps-ups is two weeks or longer based on individual needs • Dosing flexibility allowed to accommodate individual and family needs 16
Patients Want a Bite-Proof Level of Protection They Can Count On • “Bite-proof” protection: tolerate ≥ 2 peanuts • High degree of certainty of protection • Rapid therapeutic effect • Reduced symptom severity should a reaction to peanut exposure occur Therapeutic goal of AR101 aligns with desire for confirmed bite-proof level of protection Based on qualitative interviews with 200+ allergists, patients and physicians, quantitative surveys with >300 allergists and >400 parents in U.S. and EU, ongoing input from Aimmune SAB and KOL community 17
AR101 Dosing Would Fit Well Into Allergy Practices ~5,000 U.S. Allergists • Allergists are highly motivated to offer approved treatments • AR101 up-dosing is similar to allergy shot experience • Practice capacity currently exists to integrate and scale AR101 • Expect group practices to be high adopters ~75% of U.S. allergists surveyed by AAAAI Insights based on Aimmune sponsored market research would prescribe an with U.S. allergists and practice managers (N=70) FDA-approved oral immunotherapy* 18 *Greenhawt, Vickery, JACI (2015) – Survey of members of The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI)
