Interim Analysis - General
• Objective of interim analysis
– To provide estimation on number of patients needed in order to reach statistical
significance on cognition endpoints
significance on cognition endpoints
• Interim analysis based on 230 patients
– Risk mitigation - make early go/no-go decision regarding continuation of trial
• Allows reallocation of resources to other projects
• Enables longer cash runway
• Statistical analysis
– Analysis based on cognition data only
– Study endpoints:
• Primary endpoint: cognitive benefits of treatment after 6 weeks
• Secondary endpoints: long-term cognition as of 12 weeks and 24 weeks
3
Procedure for Analysis
• Establishment of independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC)
• Closed session (only DMC members)
– Un-blinded analysis and sample size recommendations discussed within the DMC
– DMC prepares final recommendations for management
• Open session - DMC and BLRX management
– Blinded presentation and discussion of sample size recommendations with
management
management
– No un-blinded data disclosed

Interim Analysis Recommendations
• Primary cognition endpoint cannot be reached with any
reasonable number of patients in current study
reasonable number of patients in current study
• Secondary cognition endpoints cannot be reached with any
reasonable number of patients in current study
reasonable number of patients in current study
• Several statistical parameters specified in the statistical analysis
plan (SAP) indicated positive trends
plan (SAP) indicated positive trends
– Consistent timing
– Social cognition test

Next Steps
• Discontinue CLARITY study
– No additional patients will be enrolled in the trial
• Perform complete analysis of un-blinded study data on all
patients enrolled to date
patients enrolled to date
• Revise Company’s operating plan for 2013
– Company’s current cash balance is $28 million
– New operating plan expected to extend cash resources into 2015
