Teva Highlights Growing Respiratory Portfolio at the 2016 American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Annual Scientific Meeting

Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., (NYSE and TASE:TEVA) today announced that ten company-sponsored abstracts will be presented at the 2016 American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (ACAAI) Annual Scientific Meeting in San Francisco, California on November 10-14, 2016.

Data for presentation include results from three Phase III studies and one Phase I study of fluticasone propionate/salmeterol (FS) RespiClick^®, a fixed-dose combination inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and long-acting beta agonist (LABA) delivered via Teva’s RespiClick^® breath-actuated, multi-dose dry powder inhaler (MDPI) and for fluticasone propionate (Fp) RespiClick^® an ICS monotherapy also delivered via the RespiClick^® device. This will be the first presentation of the Phase III clinical trial results for FS RespiClick^® and Fp RespiClick^®, which are currently under review with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration for the treatment of adolescent and adult patients with asthma. Abstracts of note include two poster presentations examining the efficacy and safety of Fp RespiClick^® and FS RespiClick^® at varying doses compared to placebo, and a poster presentation evaluating long-term safety of both products in asthmatic patients.

In addition, a retrospective, observational study pertaining to Teva’s rescue medication, ProAir^® HFA (albuterol sulfate) Inhalation Aerosol from its Health Economics & Outcomes Research division will be presented via oral presentation. The study evaluated the impact of rescue inhalers with integrated dose counters (IDC), specifically ProAir^® HFA, on healthcare utilization among asthmatic patients. Results from the study show how IDCs significantly contributed to improved outcomes for asthmatic patients while also reducing respiratory-related healthcare utilization, specifically hospitalizations and emergency department visits.

“We look forward to presenting new data and analyses for a number of products in our growing respiratory portfolio at the ACAAI Annual Scientific Meeting as we continue our work to help address the needs of people living with respiratory disease,” said Tushar Shah, MD, Senior Vice President, Teva Global Respiratory Research and Development. “When it comes to asthma, there is not a one-size-fits-all approach for treatment. Whether enhancing delivery device technology, enabling patients to track remaining doses in an inhaler with an integrated dose counter, or developing targeted biologic therapies, Teva is committed to developing and delivering therapies that will help patients across the severity spectrum better manage their illness.”

About CINQAIR^® (reslizumab) Injection
CINQAIR (reslizumab) Injection is an interleukin-5 antagonist monoclonal antibody (IgG4 kappa) indicated for add-on maintenance treatment of patients with severe asthma aged 18 years and older, and with an eosinophilic phenotype.

Limitations of Use: CINQAIR is not indicated for:

• treatment of other eosinophilic conditions
• relief of acute bronchospasm or status asthmaticus

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: ANAPHYLAXIS

• Anaphylaxis has been observed with CINQAIR infusion in 0.3% of patients in placebo-controlled clinical studies. Anaphylaxis was reported as early as the second dose of CINQAIR.
• Anaphylaxis can be life-threatening. Patients should be observed for an appropriate period of time after CINQAIR administration by a healthcare professional prepared to manage anaphylaxis. Discontinue CINQAIR immediately if the patient experiences signs or symptoms of anaphylaxis.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

• CINQAIR is contraindicated in patients who have known hypersensitivity to reslizumab or any of its excipients.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

• Acute Asthma Symptoms or Deteriorating Disease: CINQAIR should not be used to treat acute asthma symptoms or acute exacerbations. Do not use CINQAIR to treat acute bronchospasm or status asthmaticus. Patients should seek medical advice if their asthma remains uncontrolled or worsens after initiation of treatment with CINQAIR.
• Malignancy: In placebo-controlled clinical studies, 6/1028 (0.6%) patients receiving 3 mg/kg CINQAIR had at least 1 malignant neoplasm reported compared to 2/730 (0.3%) patients in the placebo group. The observed malignancies in CINQAIR-treated patients were diverse in nature and without clustering of any particular tissue type. The majority of malignancies were diagnosed within less than six months of exposure to CINQAIR.
• Reduction of Corticosteroid Dosage: No clinical studies have been conducted to assess reduction of maintenance corticosteroid dosages following administration of CINQAIR. Do not discontinue systemic or inhaled corticosteroids abruptly upon initiation of therapy with CINQAIR. Reductions in corticosteroid dose, if appropriate, should be gradual and performed under the supervision of a physician. Reduction in corticosteroid dose may be associated with systemic withdrawal symptoms and/or unmask conditions previously suppressed by systemic corticosteroid therapy.
• Parasitic (Helminth) Infection: Eosinophils may be involved in the immunological response to some helminth infections. Treat patients with pre-existing helminth infections before initiating CINQAIR. If patients become infected while receiving treatment with CINQAIR and do not respond to anti-helminth treatment, discontinue treatment with CINQAIR until infection resolves.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

• Adverse reactions that occurred at ≥2% incidence and more commonly than in the placebo group included 1 event: oropharyngeal pain (2.6% vs. 2.2%).
• Elevated baseline creatine phosphokinase (CPK) was more frequent in patients randomized to CINQAIR (14%) versus placebo (9%). Transient CPK elevations in patients with normal baseline CPK values were observed more frequently with CINQAIR (20%) versus placebo (18%) during routine laboratory assessments.
• Myalgia was reported in 1% (10/1028) of patients in the CINQAIR 3 mg/kg group compared to 0.5% (4/730) of patients in the placebo group.
• Immunogenicity: In placebo-controlled studies, a treatment-emergent anti-reslizumab antibody response developed in 53/983 (5.4%) of CINQAIR-treated patients (3 mg/kg). The antibody responses were of low titer and often transient. There was no detectable impact of the antibodies on the clinical pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, clinical efficacy, and safety of CINQAIR.
