Cancer Patient Challenges Affordability and Accessibility of Medication – Specialty Tier Medications – 24% annual income for drug alone – ACA = AACA “Almost Affordable Care Act” Advanced Diagnostics – Individualized medicine Value-Based Therapy – Ancillary medications and treatments

PSI the Missing Link Copay Assistance – Affordability of medicinal copay needs – Deductible, out of pocket costs – Formulary of therapy treatment meds Premium Assistance – Provision of reimbursement vehicle Ancillary Services – Incidental Expenses (wheelchair, oxygen, transportation) Network of Specialty Pharmacies – Focused on Value-Based Cancer Care

SPECIAL ADVISORY BULLETIN, MAY 21, Office of Inspector General

Compliance is a High Priority (New Office of Inspector General Special Advisory Bulletin, May 21, 2014) 1.Disease Funds will… a. Be legitimately defined in accordance with “widely recognized clinical standards” (e.g. FDA, CMS???) b. Be defined “in a manner that covers within each fund a broad spectrum of products wherever possible includinggenerics”. c. “Not be defined by reference of specific symptoms, severity of symptoms, method of administration, stages of particular disease, type of drug treatment, or any other way of narrowing” d. Not be defined as “high cost or specialty drug funds” and must consider other financial variables beyond income (e.g. costs of living, debt)

Compliance is a High Priority (New Office of Inspector General Special Advisory Bulletin, May 21, 2014) 2.No single-drug funds… a. Providing copayment for only one drug or only one manufacturer. b. Unless fund is legitimately defined, includes combining two or more related disease funds, covers any drugs needed by patient, covers all copayments for items and services needed by patients and is submitted for consideration to OIG on a case by case basis.

Compliance is a High Priority (New Office of Inspector General Special Advisory Bulletin, May 21, 2014) 3.Diluting Funds May Be Acceptable… a. According to legal counsel discussions with OIG, OIG may consider single drug funds if they are “diluted”. (1). Dilution means: Premium, Copayment, Travel Expenses, and Ancillary Expenses (Nursing, labs, diagnostic test, physician copays, infusion costs, etc.) 4. Reporting must be OIG compliant and not correlate donation amount with patient usage

Consequences to Patients and Manufacturers Patients No access to rare and orphan drugs Barrier to assistance: adverse health; life/death Most vulnerable populations (Medicare beneficiaries); establishes a class medical society Manufacturers Add more drugs to the “fund” including generics –supporting other drugs Add premium assistance if a “copayment” program Provide “copayment” assistance for only private patients If single donor program; dilute with copay, premium, travel expense, ancillary services

PSI Solutions Created and defends model – Passion and motivation to help patients afford and gain access to care they need, not just copay assistance Broaden Disease State Funds – Formulary expansion to include generics, and value based therapies – Funds include Premium Assistance Copay Assistance (Deductibles as well as copays) Ancillary Services Assistance

Generics and Biosimilars in Oncology Increasing availability of generics in oncology creating opportunities for inclusion in specialty tier(s) and potential exclusions Biosimilars – several questions remain, but they are coming and development activity is increasing – Sandoz has largest current global biosimilar sales (mainly in EU) at $500M with an estimated annual growth rate of 20% and active pipeline 1 – Amgen developing portfolio of six biosimilars 2 – Several other manufacturers (Teva, Hospira) active in biosimilars globally but have not publicly declared plans in US 1. “No biotech copycat drug lift off before Novartis CEO.” Reuters, August 25, Accessed September 3, 2014 at “Amgen makes room for biosimilars despite cutting manufacturing 23%.” BioPharmareporter.com July 30, Accessed September 3, 2014 at
