RESPIRATORY 
 
AstraZeneca's Respiratory focus is aimed at transforming the treatment of asthma and COPD through combination inhaled
therapies, biologics for the unmet medical needs of specific patient populations and an early pipeline focused on disease
modification. 
 
The growing range of medicines includes up to four anticipated launches between 2017 and 2020; of these, Bevespi and
Fasenra are already benefitting patients. The capability in inhalation technology spans both pressurised, metered-dose
inhalers and dry-powder inhalers to serve patient needs, as well as the innovative Aerosphere Delivery Technology, a focus
of AstraZeneca's future-platform development for respiratory-disease combination therapies. 
 
a) Symbicort (asthma) 
 
During the period, the US FDA approved updates to the Symbicort labelling, including removal of the boxed warning for
Symbicort and other ICS/LABA medicines for serious asthma-related outcomes. The update followed a 2011 post-marketing
requirement from the US FDA, which required all manufacturers of LABA medicines to further evaluate their safety when used
in combination with ICS for the treatment of asthma. The agency analysed four clinical trials involving over 42,000
patients and the results did not show a significant increase in the risk of serious asthma-related events (hospitalisation,
intubations and death) with an ICS/LABA fixed-dose combination, compared with ICS alone. 
 
b) Tudorza (COPD) 
 
On 4 December 2017, AstraZeneca announced positive top-line results of the Phase IV ASCENT trial for Tudorza, a long-acting
muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), in patients with moderate to very severe COPD, with a history of CV disease and/or
significant CV risk factors. 
 
The US FDA required data from the ASCENT trial as a post-marketing requirement to evaluate major adverse CV events for up
to three years with aclidinium bromide, the active ingredient in Tudorza. The trial included more than 3,600 patients from
Canada and the US and demonstrated a reduction in exacerbations and CV safety. A full analysis of the data is ongoing and
results will be presented at a forthcoming medical meeting. AstraZeneca intends to submit an sNDA for an expanded Tudorza
label. 
 
c) Fasenra (benralizumab) (severe, uncontrolled asthma) 
 
On 15 November 2017, the Company announced that the US FDA had approved Fasenra as a new medicine for patients with severe
asthma aged 12 years and older and with an eosinophilic phenotype. 
 
On 10 January 2018, the EMA approved Fasenra as an add-on maintenance treatment in adult patients with severe,
inadequately-controlled eosinophilic asthma, despite high-dose inhaled corticosteroids plus LABA. The approvals were based
on results from the WINDWARD programme, including the pivotal Phase III exacerbation trials SIROCCO and CALIMA, plus the
Phase III oral corticosteroid (OCS)-sparing trial, ZONDA. Regulatory decisions are anticipated in several other
jurisdictions in H1 2018. 
 
On 19 January 2018, the Company announced that the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare had approved Fasenra as
an add-on treatment for bronchial asthma in patients who continue to experience asthma exacerbations, despite treatment
with high-dose inhaled corticosteroid and other asthma controller(s). 
 
During the period, the Phase III GRECO trial met its primary endpoint, showing that patients and caregivers could
self-administer Fasenra with an autoinjector. GRECO was a multicentre, open-label trial designed to assess the
functionality and reliability of a single use autoinjector of Fasenra, administered subcutaneously in an at-home setting
with monitoring of the autoinjector performance after use. The device performed as expected during the clinical trial. 
 
d) Tralokinumab (asthma) 
 
During the period, AstraZeneca decided to discontinue the development of tralokinumab, an investigational anti-IL-13 human
immunoglobulin-G4 monoclonal antibody, in severe, uncontrolled asthma. The decision followed the publication of results of
the Phase III programme, in which the primary endpoint of a significant reduction in the annual asthma exacerbation rate
was not met in the two pivotal trials, STRATOS 1 and STRATOS 2. In an OCS-sparing trial, TROPOS, tralokinumab did not
achieve a statistically-significant reduction in OCS use when added to the standard of care, in patients dependent on OCS. 
 
e) PT010 (COPD) 
 
On 26 January 2018, AstraZeneca announced the top-line results of the pivotal Phase III KRONOS trial for PT010, a potential
triple-combination therapy (budesonide/glycopyrronium/formoterol fumarate) for the treatment of moderate to very severe
COPD. In the trial, PT010 significantly improved lung function compared to PT009 (budesonide/formoterol fumarate), Bevespi
(glycopyrronium/formoterol fumarate) and Symbicort Turbuhaler (budesonide/formoterol fumarate). AstraZeneca anticipates
presentation of the results at a forthcoming medical meeting and intends to make the first regulatory submission for PT010
in H2 2018. 
 
During the period, the Phase III TELOS trial read out, which compared two doses of PT009 (budesonide/formoterol fumarate)
to its individual components, PT005 (formoterol fumarate) and PT008 (budesonide), and to Symbicort. The trial assessed lung
function in patients with moderate to very severe COPD to qualify PT009 as an active comparator in the PT010 clinical-trial
programme. 
 
PT009, PT005 and PT008 were all delivered using Aerosphere Delivery Technology. All primary endpoints were met, with the
exception of the lung-function primary endpoint that compared low-dose PT009 to PT005. A full evaluation of the TELOS trial
results is ongoing, and the Company intends to present the results at a forthcoming medical meeting. 
 
f) Tezepelumab (asthma) 
 
In November 2017, the Company and its partner Amgen Inc. initiated the Phase III PATHFINDER programme for tezepelumab.
During the period, the first patient was enrolled in the first Phase III trial, NAVIGATOR. The decision to proceed with the
programme was based on the results from the Phase IIb PATHWAY trial in patients with severe, uncontrolled asthma. Results
from the trial were published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented at the European Respiratory Society
International Congress in September 2017.
