Q&A highlights

Q: Talk about rationale behind selection of indications, if at least one trial beyond MG, TED, WAIHA is a pivotal trial, and market evolution in TED.

A: Selection criteria include technical success probability and unmet need. One of the indications beyond MG could be a pivotal trial. In TED, market may evolve to sequential therapy with different mechanisms of action as patients may need multiple therapies.

Q: Any additional analyses on 1401 dosing and when to expect communication?

A: Yes, conducting PK/PD modeling on collected data, with details likely shared at R&D Day in Q1 2022.

Q: Details on pivotal MG study and gating factors?

A: Protocol has induction-maintenance flavor. Gating factors are FDA alignment logistics.

Q: Resuming WAIHA and TED studies, design size, and TED data release?

A: $200M investment provides flexibility; specifics not yet detailed. Won't release TED data granularity prior to FDA alignment on next trial.

Q: Mitigating LDL issue in TED trial and subsets of indications with less lipid issues?

A: TED may have shorter therapy duration, so short-term LDL excursions may not be an issue. Subsets of indications vary, but short-term LDL changes are not a concern for most patients.
