`
`I.
`
`BACKGROUND & QUALIFICATIONS
`Since 1991, I have been a board certified medical oncologist involved
`
`1.
`
`in the clinical management of cancer patients and in clinical drug development in
`
`phase 1-3 clinical trials.
`
`2.
`
`I am currently Professor of Medicine and Oncology at the University
`
`of Maryland Medical School and Director of the Breast Evaluation and Treatment
`
`Program at the Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center, also at the
`
`University of Maryland Medical Center.
`
`3.
`
`I received my undergraduate and M.D. degrees from Wroclaw
`
`Medical University Uniwersytet Medyczny im. Piastów Śląskich we Wrocławiu;
`
`Universitas Medicus Vratislaviensis in Wroclaw Poland in 1978-1984. I then

`
`conducted research in the Pathology Department at Hahnemann Hospital in
`
`Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I completed an internship and residency in Internal
`
`Medicine at St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, and a fellowship in
`
`Hematology/Oncology from the University of Maryland Cancer Center in
`
`Baltimore, Maryland and the Veterans Administration Medical Center, also in
`
`Baltimore.
`
`4.
`
`I see approximately 35 stage 0-4 breast cancer patients every week. I
`
`regularly use paclitaxel products and other chemotherapeutic agents with these
`
`patients, and have prescribed Abraxane® in my practice since it was approved by
`
`FDA in 2005.
`
`5.
`
`In addition to seeing patients, I also conduct research focusing on
`
`clinical drug development in breast cancer and other solid tumor malignancies.
`
`From 1992 to the present, I have been involved in more than 100 phase 1-3 clinical
`
`trials, and have served as the institutional principal investigator on the majority of
`
`the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center
`
`(UMGCCC) breast cancer specific clinical trials. As the Director of UMGCCC
`
`Breast Evaluation and Treatment Program, a multidisciplinary program with
`
`commitment to comprehensive, multidisciplinary breast cancer care, I have
`
`overseen the clinical and research aspects of the program for several years. The
`
`UMGCCC clinical breast program continues to work in the area of clinical drug

`
`A.
`
`SUMMARY OF OPINIONS
`The clinical results observed with the 9:1 formulation were
`beneficial and unexpected
`I was asked by counsel to review the declaration of Dr. Desai, dated
`
`11.
`
`April 14, 2010. I understand that Dr. Desai’s declaration was submitted to the
`
`
`
`3
`
`Abraxis EX2001

`

`
`United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) during prosecution of the
`
`Abraxis Patents. I do not know if the data reported in Dr. Desai’s declaration was
`
`published, and my opinions are based upon my knowledge and experience and my
`
`review of Dr. Desai’s declaration, including the exhibits thereto.
`
`12. Dr. Desai’s declaration summarized comparative testing results
`
`between Abraxane® and a previous version of Abraxis’s albumin-paclitaxel
`
`nanoparticles. He compared the results seen with Abraxane®, which has an
`
`albumin-to-paclitaxel ratio of 9:1 to results observed with what he calls an “old
`
`formulation”, which has a higher albumin-to-paclitaxel ratio of 19:1. (EX1023 ¶¶
`
`23-30 and Exhibit 5.)
`
`13.
`
`In his declaration, Dr. Desai reported that Abraxane® (with a 9:1
`
`ratio) has a higher therapeutic efficacy and reduced toxicity in comparison to the
`
`“old formulation”. (EX1023 ¶¶ 23-30.)
`
`14. An experienced medical oncologist would be able to review Dr.
`
`Desai’s descriptions of the studies including the response rates and the side effect
`
`rates, and obtain clinically relevant information. In my opinion, they would be
`
`able to obtain enough clinically relevant information from Dr. Desai’s summaries
`
`of these clinical trials even if the patients did not necessarily receive identical
`
`dosing, infusion rates or have the same stages or types of cancer. In my
`
`experience, practicing medical oncologists often take this approach in clinical
`
`

`

`
`medicine as it is often impossible to repeat large randomized clinical trials due to
`
`limited patient resources and, as widely recognized in the oncology community,
`
`low rates of patient participation in clinical trials.
`
`15.
`
`In my opinion, the data presented in Dr. Desai’s declaration are
`
`indicative of a positive result with the 9:1 formulation of Abraxane® in
`
`comparison to the “old formulation”. These data demonstrate the unexpected
`
`benefits of the 9:1 formulation over the 19:1 formulation, and show that the lower
`
`9:1 albumin to paclitaxel ratio is associated with numerically fewer side-effects, in
`
`particular, for the following:
`
` lymphopenia – 6% with Abraxane® vs. 36% with 19:1
`
` anemia – 15% with Abraxane® vs. 77% with 19:1
`
` anorexia – 18% with Abraxane® vs. 73% with 19:1
`
` diarrhea – 15% with Abraxane® vs. 23% with 19:1
`
` rash – 26% with Abraxane® vs. 41% with 19:1
`
` fatigue – 15% with Abraxane® vs. 36% with 19:1.
`
`16.
`
`This improved side-effect profile seen with the 9:1 formulation is
`
`clinically meaningful and can positively impact patient quality of life while they
`
`are receiving treatment with this cytotoxic agent. For example, patients may be
`
`able to tolerate higher dosages of paclitaxel chemotherapy and/or continue with
`
`chemotherapeutic treatment. It is my opinion that this difference in the side effect
`
`

`

`
`profile between the two formulations of albumin based Paclitaxel formulations
`
`would not be expected.
`
`B.
`
`17.
`
`The 9:1 formulation shows unexpectedly improved benefits in
`comparison to solvent-based paclitaxel formulations
`Paclitaxel is available as a FDA-approved solvent-based formulation.
`
`The brand name for this formulation is “Taxol”. A solvent-based paclitaxel
`
`formulation was FDA approved and commercially available prior to 2002, when
`
`the patent applications leading to the Abraxane Patents were filed. The FDA-
`
`approved and available on the market 9:1 Abraxane® formulation showed
`
`unexpectedly improved clinical benefits in comparison to solvent-based paclitaxel
`
`formulations as evidenced by published clinical trial results in breast cancer, non-
`
`small cell lung cancer and pancreatic cancer.
`
`18. By 2002, medical oncologists were well aware of the problems
`
`presented by solvent-based paclitaxel formulations. Cremophor EL (CrEL) is a
`
`formulation vehicle used for various poorly-water soluble drugs, including the
`
`anticancer agent Taxol. The most recognized biological effect of paclitaxel
`
`formulated with CrEL is an acute hypersensitivity reaction, characterized by
`
`dyspnea, flushing, rash, chest pain, tachycardia, hypotension, angioedema, and
`
`generalized urticaria. Despite premedication, consisting of high-dose
`
`corticosteroids, H1 and H2 antagonists, minor reactions (flushing and rash) still
`
`occur in 41–44% of all patients and major, potentially life-threatening, reactions in
`
`
`

`

`
`1.5–3%. (EX2090.) In 2002, having used solvent-based paclitaxel formulations,
`
`medical oncologists would have wanted an FDA-approved formulation of
`
`paclitaxel that was stable, could be administered in a smaller infusion volume,
`
`could be administered without pre-medication or without co-administration of
`
`steroids, and which did not have the adverse side effects caused by the solvent in
`
`such formulations. Abraxane®, with its 9:1 ratio of albumin-to-paclitaxel, and
`
`which does not contain Cremophor EL, satisfies these needs. In addition, further
`
`advantages are that Abraxane® is delivered at a higher dosage and over a shorter
`
`infusion period than solvent-based paclitaxel formulations. (EX2091.)
`
`19. As shown in the NCCN Guidelines, Abraxane® is considered to be
`
`one of the standard of care chemotherapeutic treatment options for patients with
`
`metastatic breast cancer and other cancers (such as lung and pancreatic cancers)
`
`demonstrating that this drug is widely accepted as an efficacious and safe treatment
`
`option for patients with these cancers. (See, e.g, EX2087; EX2088; EX2089;
`
`EX2092.)

`Experience as a medical oncologist
`I understand that Apotex’s IPR Petitions rely upon a Declaration from
`
`Cory Berkland, Ph.D, who provided opinions about the clinical trials discussed in
`
`the Desai Declaration. I understand that Dr. Berkland is not a physician and

`A. Personal Statement
`
`My research interests are focused on clinical drug development in breast cancer (BC). From 1992 to present I
`have been involved in 100+ Phase 1-3 clinical trials and have served as the institutional principal investigator
`(PI) on the majority of the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC) BC-
`specific clinical trials. The UMGCCC “Hormonal Sensitive Program” (BREAST and PROSTATE) was
`instrumental in the UMGCCC receiving the P30 grant funding and the NCI Comprehensive Cancer Center
`designation in 2016. Our Clinical Breast Cancer Program contributes substantial numbers of patients to
`institutional and national/cooperative group clinical trials with rates of accrual much higher than the national
`average. In addition we also have excellent participation and accrual of minorities to our clinical trials (many of
`our trials have 40-50% AAF accruals). As the Director of UMGCCC Breast Evaluation and Treatment Program
`(BETP), a multidisciplinary program with commitment to comprehensive, multidisciplinary breast cancer care, I
`have been overseeing the clinical and research aspects of the program for several years. The UMGCCC
`clinical breast program continues to work in the area of clinical drug development with the focus on hormone
`resistance, novel drug combinations, breast cancer vaccines, role of microtentacles in breast cancer
`metastasis, the significance of brown adipose tissue in pathogenesis and progression of breast cancer, the
`GP-88 circulating marker and its significance in patients with breast cancer and in screening for breast cancer.
`In my role as the Director of the Breast Evaluation and Treatment Program at the University of Maryland
`Greenebaum Cancer Center I am wholeheartedly committed to the successful progress of our program.

`C. Contribution to Science
`1. Early studies conducted here at UMGCCC in breast cancer patients helped us to understand the
`significance of clinical and laboratory collaborations which eventually may lead to breakthrough discoveries
`to help to guide our anticancer therapy recommendations. Since then, molecular, multigene tests have
`been developed and help the clinicians to risk stratify early stage BC patients and guide specific treatment
`approaches. Breast tumor circulating cells are of significant interest to us here at UMGCCC. I have also
`been involved in a study focused on imaging of Her2+ breast tumors. Our current collaborations include
`studies with the Stuart Martin laboratory (UMGCCC), which discovered cellular extensions on BC cells
`called microtentacles, with the plan to develop a clinical trial in metastatic BC patients looking at the clinical
`significance of the these microtentacles in the setting of treatment with chemotherapy with a Vinca Alkaloid.

`
`2. We have conducted studies with Dr Ginette Serrero and her company to assess the prognostic value of
`glycoprotein 88 (GP-88) as a tumor tissue marker. We found that GP-88 is a negative prognostic marker in
`BC patients with hormone sensitive cancer, which may be
`independent of Her2; additionally,
`overexpression of GP-88 may render BC tumors resistant to anti Her2 therapy with trastuzumab. Studies
`conducted in the UMGCCC also established that GP-88 can be detected in sera of patients with BC and
`this level is increased in BC patients as compared to healthy volunteers. We then conducted a study of GP-
`88 as a screening test for breast cancer in healthy volunteers at average risk for developing breast cancer.
`In addition, we are planning a Phase 1 study of GP88 monoclonal antibody in patients with advanced solid
`tumor malignancies and breast cancer patients with triple negative and hormone resistant breast cancer.

`
`3. A clinical translational protocol with Dr. Tonya Webb (UMGCCC) has led to a recent publication by Dr.
`Webb showing invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells constitute an important subset of T cells that can both
`directly and indirectly mediate anti-tumor immunity. Cancer patients have a reduction in both iNKT cell
`number and function, and these deficits limit the potential clinical application of iNKT cells for cancer
`therapy. Our data demonstrate that co-culture of HSPC with OP9-DL1 stromal cells results in a functional
`CD3(+) T cell population. These T cells can be further differentiated into iNKT cells by secondary culture
`with CD1d-Ig-based artificial antigen-presenting cells (aAPC). Importantly, these in vitro-generated iNKT
`cells are functional, as demonstrated by their ability to proliferate and secrete IFN-γ and GM-CSF following
`stimulation.
