1 Sector Update Institutional Equities Pharmaceutical Sector September 7 Prescription Charts of Interest August 7 We observed the prescription chart trend and institutional wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) of key drugs over the period January August 7. Following are our key findings: Liposomal Doxorubicin (Doxil generic): There is apparently a major swing in market share with the entry of Dr. Reddy s Laboratories (DRL) in July this year. DRL has ramped up its market share to 6 by grabbing the share from Sun Pharmaceutical Industries (SPIL) and JNJ. Exhibit : gdoxil prescription trend Doxil Jan/7 Feb/7 Mar/7 Apr/7 May/7 Jun/7 Jul/7 Aug/7 Dr. Reddy's Sun Pharma Johnson & Johnson Exhibit : gdoxil institutional WAC Johnson & Johnson Dr. Reddy's Sun Pharma Vishal Manchanda Research Analyst vishal.manchanda@nirmalbang.com Decitabine (Dacogen generic): In Decitabine, new generic entrant (Intas) is apparently drawing market share from the innovator (Otsuka). DRL continues to maintain its market share. Otsuka supplies seem to be inconsistent, which is benefiting generic players.

2 Odomzo: Odomzo prescriptions have been picking up of late, driven by marketing and promotion efforts from SPIL. Since the acquisition of Odomzo rights from Novartis, SPIL has doubled market share in Odomzo from % to 6%. The current market share translates to an annual run rate of US$7mnUS$mn.

3 Simvastatin/Ezetimibe (Vytorin generic): DRL continues to build market share in Vytorin. So far DRL has gained bps incremental market share in the current quarter. The innovator still controls 6% of the market, indicating that there is headroom for generics to strengthen their presence. Exhibit : gvytorin prescription trend Impax Dr. Reddy's Teva Merck Sernivo: On YoY basis, Sernivo prescriptions are up %, but they have declined in absolute numbers over the past few months. We believe the decline may be because of seasonal changes. Psoriasis disease is more aggressive in winter months. At the current run rate, Sernivo spray annual sales should trace to US$m in FY. Exhibit : Sernivo prescription trend (Nos),,,,,,,, Dr. Reddy's Oseltamivir Phosphate Capsules (Tamiflu generic): Alvogen/Natco Pharma, which closed the last flu season (ended March 7) with about market share, will see price and market share erosion in the upcoming flu season as there will be five players competing in the market. Amneal and Macleod Pharma are recent entrants. Exhibit : gtamiflu prescription trend 7 6 Alvogen Zydus HoffmanLa Roche Amneal Pharmaceutical Sector

4 Jan/7 Feb/7 Mar/7 Apr/7 May/7 Jun/7 Jul/7 Aug/7 Institutional Equities Biosimilar market share trend Basaglar: Eli Lilly launched Basaglar in the US in December 6. Over a period of eight months the company grabbed of the insulin glargine pie. The market share rampup is impressive as biosimilar penetration has always been difficult in chronic segments. Eli Lilly has been able to execute by virtue of its broad portfolio of offerings for diabetes patients. Exhibit : glantus prescription trend Exhibit : glantus institutional WAC Eli Lilly 6 9 Eli Lilly Filgrastim: Filgrastim represents a hospital product which is relatively easier for biosimilar players to crack. Biosimilars now represent % of Filgrastim market in the US. Zarxio, which was launched in late, has seen its market share getting ramped up to % over the past months. Exhibit 6: Filgrastim prescription trend Amgen Novartis Teva Infliximab: It has been around six months since Pfizer launched a biosimilar of Remicade, but the offtake is dismal with low singledigit market share. The low offtake represents the hurdles for biosimilars in chronic segment of the market, which are driven by physician prescriptions. A wider acceptance can be created if the biosimilar player has a portfolio of product offering.
