12 SB-FIX (Hem B): Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial Protocol Study Design Study Population Primary Endpoint Other Endpoints PI and Study Site Sponsor SB-FIX-1501 Phase 1/2 Study (N=9) Open-label, Ascending Dose Study -- 3 Cohorts 2 subjects per cohort 1 month treatment interval between subjects within cohorts 2 months between cohorts (SMC review of data) Male subjects 18 years old, with severe hemophilia B who are without inhibitors to FIX and have no hypersensitivity to rfix Evaluate safety and tolerability of AAV2/6 Factor IX IVPRP based therapy Change from baseline in: circulating FIX levels use of FIX replacement therapy frequency and severity of bleeding episodes Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) Immune response to AAV2/6, FIX (steroid use if necessary) Nadia Ewing, MD and John Zaia, MD -- City of Hope, Duarte, CA Sangamo BioSciences, Inc. 12

13 Sangamo s IVPRP Approach for MPS I & MPS II ZFN Genome Editing vs Enzyme Replacement Therapy (ERT) Current ERTs require weekly infusion of replacement enzyme However, tissue enzyme concentrations are depleted within hours of infusion One-time administration of ZFNs enables permanent insertion of therapeutic gene at the albumin locus in patient s liver resulting in continuous enzyme production ZFNs ERTs Permanent enzyme production therapeutic levels Therapeutic Level Weeks

14 MPS II (Hunter Syndrome) Stable increase in hids activity in plasma Key Takeaway - Stable production of hids enzyme from the liver - Statistically significant increase in hids enzyme activity in the plasma of ZFN-treated MPS II mice at mid and high doses through 120 day study duration 14

15 MPS II (Hunter Syndrome) Increased hids activity and reduced GAGs in tissue 15

16 Histopathologic Analysis of Tissues Revealed Correction of Cellular Vacuolation Cellular vacuolation is the engorgement of lysosomes in cells due to the accumulation of GAGs, a disease characteristic of MPS I/II (Ohmi, 2003) Liver (4 month) WT mice MPS I mice MPS I ZFN + Donor Reduced levels of vacuolation were detected in treated MPS I mice in: - Liver, Spleen, Lung and Kidney - Heart, Skeletal Muscle - Bone Marrow, Thymus and Lymph Node - Bone and Femoral-tibial Joint - Spinal WT Cord mice MPS I mice MPS I ZFN + Donor 16

17 Barnes Maze Test MPS I and MPS II Mice Evaluating Spatial Learning and Memory Barnes Maze assesses ability of the animal to learn and memorize the location of a target zone using a configuration of distal visual cues Animal is presented with an aversive environment (bright light) Only 1 of 40 platform holes is not blocked and allows the animal to hide from the light above ( escape hole ) Thomas Wechsler 2015 Assess the ability of the animal to learn and memorize the location of the escape hole Visual cues on the walls aid the animal Time to find the escape hole is measured on six consecutive days 17

18 Barnes Maze Test Significant Improvements in Cognitive Function MPS I MPS II Statistically significant improvement in cognitive learning and memory in MPS I and MPS II mice 18

19 MPS II (Hunter Syndrome) Data Summary Single intravenous administration of ZFNs and IDS donor sequence resulted in: Stable, continuous production of active hids enzyme from the liver into the circulation and secondary tissue through the end of 120 day study Statistically significant increase of hids enzyme activity in secondary tissue, including increase in the brain Statistically significant reduction of GAG biomarker levels in secondary tissue Enzyme crossing the blood brain barrier evidence of enzyme activity and reduction of GAGs observed in the brain 19

23 Bauer et al. Science (2013) 342: 253 Hardison and Blobel Science (2013) 342: 206 We propose the GWAS-identified enhancer of BCL11A as a particularly promising therapeutic target for genome engineering in the β-hemoglobinopathies. Disruption of this enhancer would impair BCL11A expression in erythroid precursors with resultant HbF derepression while sparing BCL11A expression in nonerythroid lineages. 23
