8. Xeloda Colorectal Cancer Monotherapy: Summary  Superior antitumor activity (26 % vs 17 %)  Equivalent time to progression (median 4.6 vs 4.7m)  Equivalent survival (median 12.9 vs 12.8 m)  Significantly less stomatitis/mucositis, diarrhea, nausea, alopecia and neutropenia leading to significantly less neutropenic fever/sepsis  Significantly fewer treatment-related hospitalizations  More convenient than cumbersome IV therapy

9.  Adjuvant monotherapy X-ACT phase III trial –Xeloda vs intravenous bolus 5-FU/LV –1956 patients –Dukes C colon cancer –Primary study endpoint disease free survival  Combination therapy –Xeloda / irinotecan phase II/III –Xeloda / oxaliplatin phase II –Xeloda / radiotherapy phase II/III Future Development for Xeloda in Colorectal Cancer

10. Xeloda/ Irinotecan Combination  Xeloda / irinotecan phase I/II –irinotecan 70 mg/m 2 weekly 6 weeks out of 7 with Xeloda 1000 mg/m 2 twice daily days 1-14 and 22-35 every 7 weeks  Xeloda / irinotecan phase II –irinotecan 240 mg/m 2, day 1 (every three weeks) or 120 mg/m 2 days 1 and 8 every three weeks with Xeloda 1000 mg/m 2 twice daily days 1-14 with one week rest period –very promising anti-tumor activity –principal toxicities were diarrhea and neutropenia –trial is ongoing –ASCO 2001

11. Xeloda/Oxaliplatin and Xeloda/Radiotherapy Xeloda / oxaliplatin phase II –oxaliplatin 130 mg/m 2 day 1 every three weeks + Xeloda 1000 mg/m 2 twice daily days 1-14 with one week rest period –96 patients –trial has completed recruitment Xeloda / radiotherapy –RT 50.5 grays, 6 weeks (1.8 Gy fractions) + Xeloda (continuous) recommended dose 825 mg/m 2 twice daily first to last day of radiotherapy –excellent tolerability at recommended dose level –tumor downstaging and induction of pCR

12. Xeloda in Breast Cancer: summary  Excellent response rates (20%) and median overall survival (>12 months)  Patients with stable disease (43%) have similar survival to responders  Palliative properties  Favorable safety profile  Patients prefer oral therapy  Xeloda/ Taxotere first and only combination to show superior survival compared to a standard monotherapy in anthracycline failures

13.  Monotherapy –Xeloda vs vinorelbine post-taxanes –Xeloda intermitt vs Xeloda cont vs CMF first line –Xeloda vs ET combo vs ET sequ. first line  Combination –EORTC phase III Xeloda + epirubicin (E) + cyclophosphamide (C) vs EC –phase II - 3 weekly docetaxel + Xeloda –phase II - weekly docetaxel + Xeloda  Adjuvant –phase III doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel vs Xeloda / docetaxel Future Development for Xeloda in Breast Cancer

14. Xeloda All Oral Combination  Xeloda potential combinations with other oral agents –Colorectal Cancer oral irinotecan OSI 774 (tyrosine kinase inhibitor) Breast Cancer oral cyclophosphamide oral vinorelbine idarubicine oral taxanes
