Single-Patient EA Policies/Criteria

To serve patients, KalVista Pharmaceuticals (KalVista) engages in clinical research with the goal of obtaining regulatory approval of its products.

Clinical trials allow KalVista to evaluate new treatments in patients in order to generate the safety and efficacy information needed to obtain approval of those treatments and make them available to the broader patient population. Outside of a clinical trial, access to KalVista’s investigational products would be considered only under limited circumstances, and as permitted by applicable law, in the following situations:
   - KalVista may provide continued access to its investigational products to participants in a clinical trial once the trial is complete.
   - KalVista may provide physician-requested expanded access (also known as compassionate use) to its investigational products to patients who cannot join an active clinical trial of the investigational product providing the criteria below are met.

KC Pharma DFMO EXPANDED ACCESS POLICY

KC Pharma (KCP) is committed to serving patients by providing safe, fair, and sustainable patient access to its medicines. KCP may be able to provide patients access to its investigational drug, DFMO (also called eflornithine or difluoromethylornithine), outside of a clinical trial if certain conditions are met and if permitted by local law and regulation. The use of an investigational medical product (i.e., one that has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration [FDA]) outside of a clinical trial is known as Expanded Access (sometimes referred to as “compassionate use”). Generally, there are two types of Expanded Access—Group Expanded Access and Individual Patient Expanded Access. For more information on the different types of Expanded Access, visit the following FDA website: https://www.fda.gov/news-events/public-health-focus/expanded-access.

KCP collaborates with Beat Childhood Cancer Research Consortium (BCC) and Sponsor-Investigator, Dr. Giselle Sholler and makes investigational product DFMO 192 mg tablets available for pediatric oncology indications through multiple clinical trials and a Group Expanded Access Program (also called Intermediate Population Expanded Access). KCP does not currently provide Individual Patient Expanded Access.

Expanded Access may not always be available. Information about the Group Expanded Access Program, including a full list of eligibility criteria and site contact information can be found here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03581240. In addition to meeting the eligibility criteria outlined at the link above, the following criteria must be met for entry into the Group Expanded Access Program:

• KCP must have sufficient supply of DFMO to reasonably accommodate the anticipated duration of treatment.

• The patient’s licensed physician must be willing to collaborate with the enrolling center.

• The patient’s physician and enrolling physician determine there is no comparable or satisfactory therapy available to treat the patient’s disease or condition and they agree that the patient is clinically stable and able to receive this medication.

• The patient’s parent/guardian is willing to travel with the patient to BCC at study entry and every three months while on treatment.

Licensed physicians may contact KCP with general requests or questions regarding Expanded Access at DFMOExpandedAccess@usworldmeds.com. KCP will endeavor to acknowledge general requests and questions within 5 business days. In line with the 21st Century Cures Act, KCP cannot guarantee access to investigational product to all patients. KCP may revise this policy at any time; at such time, the revised policy will be made publicly available.

Single-Patient EA Policies/Criteria

We are privileged to collaborate with clinical investigators and patients who participate in our studies to develop new, safe and effective therapies. At the same time, we understand that there are patients who will not be eligible for our clinical trials and may not have options for effective alternative therapies. In these circumstances, Krystal will consider providing a requesting physician with pre-approval access to a specific Krystal investigational drug for the treatment of an individual patient outside of a clinical trial when certain conditions are met. These conditions include, but are not limited to, the following:
•    The patient’s serious or life-threatening condition limits their ability to comply with certain clinical trial requirements, such as travel;
•    The investigational drug is in active clinical development with sufficient data available to determine an appropriate dose and schedule for the patient’s specific condition;
•    A benefit-risk analysis, based on both the available clinical data as well as the requesting physician’s assessment of the individual patient’s condition and medical history, supports making the investigational drug available;
•    Making the investigational drug available will not negatively impact or delay the conduct of clinical trials, regulatory review, or approval of the investigational drug for broader patient access; and
•    Adequate supply of the investigational drug is available. 
We continually evaluate the safety and efficacy profile of each of our investigational drugs based on evolving clinical data. Each disease, patient, and investigation drug under development is unique, and as such, requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. 
Krystal is committed to evaluating all requests in a fair and equitable manner. All requests must be submitted by the patient’s treating physician; Krystal may require more detailed information in order to fully evaluate a request. The requesting physician must agree to obtain appropriate regulatory and ethics committee approvals and comply with regulatory obligations, including obtaining patient consent, patient monitoring and safety reporting. Each request will be given careful consideration by Krystal, whose decisions are final.

Single-Patient EA Policies/Criteria

Kymab is dedicated to developing novel human antibody-based therapeutics across a broad range of indications including immune mediated diseases.

Expanded access permits the use of an investigational therapy in patients with a serious or life-threatening illness when no satisfactory preventive or treatment options are available, and the patient is ineligible to participate in a clinical trial. Kymab understands and respects the need for appropriately managed expanded access program(s), and accordingly, this policy has been generated.

The following criteria are informed by regulatory guidelines for when expanded access may be made available to an investigational product on a case-by-case basis for individual patients:
• Ongoing or planned clinical studies are not available to the patient, including lack of access due to geographical location of potential clinical trial sites;
• Significant evidence exists that supports both the safety and the efficacy of the investigational drug for the indication;
• The potential benefits to the particular patient seeking access to the investigational drug outweigh the potential risks to the patient;
• An adequate supply of the investigational drug exists;
• All necessary regulatory/institutional approvals have been obtained to allow drug administration, and
• The request for expanded access has been made by a qualified health care provider with expertise appropriate for the administration of the drug and for monitoring and managing the patient.

KY1005 is currently in early clinical development. Kymab believes that the most appropriate way to ensure appropriate use of KY1005 at this stage in development is via approved clinical trials. The initial clinical trial(s) will permit the effective generation of safety and efficacy data for KY1005 which, when shared with the Regulatory Authorities will further guide the decision making regarding its safe and effective use in an expanded access program.

At this time, therefore, Kymab will not offer expanded access and will not currently accept expanded access requests for KY1005. Information regarding KY1005’s clinical trials will be made available at https://clinicaltrials.gov/.

If you have additional questions, please speak with your health care provider or contact KY1005ExpandedAccess@Kymab.com.

In accordance with the US 21st Century Cures Act, Kymab may revise this policy at any time.
