Clinical Dilemma In Cancer Treatment Large body of knowledge has been developed around the molecular basis of cancer Paradigm Shift: Cancers are driven by oncogene mutations resulting in the trend toward new targeted therapies Effectiveness requires monitoring Resistance develops Therapies are expensive and can have side effects THE CLINICAL UTILITY OF CELL-FREE DNA FROM URINE IMAGING Rough indication of tumor size No molecular information TISSUE BIOPSY Major procedures, not possible in some cases Limitations in access to serial biopsies Tumor heterogeneity; may not obtain the right tissue from the tumor sample CIRCULATING TUMOR CELLS Very low sensitivity Technically challenging, expensive Current monitoring tools are insufficient

Cancer Monitoring Using cfDNA Is An Emerging Trend THE CLINICAL UTILITY OF CELL-FREE DNA FROM URINE “Circulating tumor DNA levels showed a greater dynamic range, and greater correlation with changes in tumor burden, than did CA 15-3 or circulating tumor cells. This proof-of-concept analysis showed that circulating tumor DNA is an informative, inherently specific, and highly sensitive biomarker of metastatic breast cancer”. Sarah-Jane Dawson et. al., Analysis of Circulating Tumor DNA to Monitor Metastatic Breast Cancer, NEJM, Vol. 368, No. 12, March 2013 “Cancer is a disease of DNA. It does make it look as if our means of defining cancer by what tissue it arose in is going to go by the boards pretty soon. Lung, breast, blood—it almost doesn't matter. What matters are the genes that are mutated, the mistakes in the instruction book. For the first time, we have a clear list of targets that are much more smart-bomb opportunities than carpet-bomb opportunities." Dr. Frances Collins, National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director, ‘Politics on The Frontier of Science’, Wall Street Journal, November 8, 2013

 


Cell-free DNA Filters Into The Urine THE CLINICAL UTILITY OF CELL-FREE DNA FROM URINE Large volume can be collected High frequency of collection possible Cell-free DNA stable in urine Truly non-invasive Patient can self-sample at home or clinic No medical professional required for specimen No refrigeration required No infection risk Lower cost Urine sample Tracking-cell free DNA Cells in the body die continuously; cancer cells die at an accelerated rate DNA is released into the bloodstream, which is then broken down into smaller segments and filtered by the kidney. Small, stable DNA fragments collect in urine where Trovagene technology can identify and quantify mutations of interest.

Short Sequences in Urine & Novel Primers Solidify IP Position Determining mutational status of short DNAs limits the DNA sequences available for amplification; therefore enabling IP of surrounding DNA that is difficult to navigate around Use of non-human DNA contiguous with primers used to amplify short regions indicates use of non-naturally occurring DNA to interrogate mutations

Shorter DNA footprints leads to increased sensitivity of assays PROPRIETARY ADVANTAGE Interrogating BRAF V600E Mutation DNA sequences available to amplify region are restrictive Single-base Mutation of A→T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C C T A C A G A G A A A T C T C C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C T A G C T A C A G A G A A A T C C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T 69 ° C C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C 71 ° C 20 A T G T C A C T T T A G A G C T A C 68 ° C G A T G T C A C T T T A G A G C T A C 70 ° C (R2) T A G G T G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C T C G A T G G A G T G G G T C C A T C C A C T A A A A C C A G A T C G A T G T C A C T T T A G A G C T A C C T C A C C C A G G G A ~ (R2) A A G A T A G SHORTEST SHT FTPT FTPT 35 36.4 13 G T G A T T T T G G T C T C T A C C T C A C C C A G 13 43.1 35 34 32.1 12 T G A T T T T G G T C T C T A C C T C A C C C A 12 40.1 34 35 37.4 14 G T G A T T T T G G T C T A C T A C C T C A C C C 11 35.7 33 34 33.5 13 T G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A C C T C A C C C A G 14 48.2 35 33 29.0 12 G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A C C T C A C C C A 13 45.9 34 33 36.9 14 T G A T T T T G G T C T A G G C T A C C T C A C C C 12 42.2 33 32 33.0 13 G A T T T T G G T C T A G A G C T A C C T C A C C C A 14 48.8 34 33 39.2 14 G A T T T T G G T C T A G C A G C T A C C T C A C C C 13 45.5 33 32 36.1 13 A T T T T G G T C T A G C A G C T A C C T C A C C 12 40.4 32 31 33.8 12 T T T T G G T C T A G C G A G C T A C C T C A C C C 14 47.8 33 33 42.1 15 G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T G A G C T A C C T C A C C 13 43.3 32 32 39.4 14 A T T T T G G T C T A G C T G A G C T A C C T C A C 12 38.2 31 31 37.5 13 T T T T G G T C T A G C T A G A G C T A C C T C A C C 14 46.2 32 30 34.9 12 T T T G G T C T A G C T A G A G C T A C C T C A C 13 41.6 31 32 40.1 15 A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A A G A G C T A C C T C A 12 37.9 30 31 38.4 14 T T T T G G T C T A G C T A T A G A G C T A C C T C A C 13 43.2 31 30 36.1 13 T T T G G T C T A G C T A T A G A G C T A C C T C A 14 39.9 30 29 33.3 12 T T G G T C T A G C T A T A G A G C T A C C T C 12 35.8 29 30 39.7 14 T T T G G T C T A G C T A C T T A G A G C T A C C T C A 14 42.0 30 29 37.6 13 LNA1-4 T T G G T C T A G C T A C x x x T T A G A G C T A C C T C 13 38.3 29 28 35.0 12 T G G T C T A G C T A C T T A G A G C T A C C T 12 34.8 28 29 41.3 14 T T G G T C T A G C T A C A T T T A G A G C T A C C T C 14 40.4 29 28 39.2 13 T G G T C T A G C T A C A T T T A G A G C T A C C T vv 13 37.4 28 27 35.0 12 G G T C T A G C T A C A T T T A G A G C T A C C 12 33.6 27 A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C C T A C A G A G A A A T C T C C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C T A G C T A C A G A G A A A T C C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T 69 ° C C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C 71 ° C 20 A T G T C A C T T T A G A G C T A C 68 ° C G A T G T C A C T T T A G A G C T A C 70 ° C (R2) T A G G T G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A C A G T G A A A T C T C G A T G G A G T G G G T C C A T C C A C T A A A A C C A G A T C G A T G T C A C T T T A G A G C T A C C T C A C C C A G G G A ~ (R2) A A G A T A G SHORTEST SHT FTPT FTPT 35 36.4 13 G T G A T T T T G G T C T C T A C C T C A C C C A G 13 43.1 35 34 32.1 12 T G A T T T T G G T C T C T A C C T C A C C C A 12 40.1 34 35 37.4 14 G T G A T T T T G G T C T A C T A C C T C A C C C 11 35.7 33 34 33.5 13 T G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A C C T C A C C C A G 14 48.2 35 33 29.0 12 G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A C C T C A C C C A 13 45.9 34 33 36.9 14 T G A T T T T G G T C T A G G C T A C C T C A C C C 12 42.2 33 32 33.0 13 G A T T T T G G T C T A G A G C T A C C T C A C C C A 14 48.8 34 33 39.2 14 G A T T T T G G T C T A G C A G C T A C C T C A C C C 13 45.5 33 32 36.1 13 A T T T T G G T C T A G C A G C T A C C T C A C C 12 40.4 32 31 33.8 12 T T T T G G T C T A G C G A G C T A C C T C A C C C 14 47.8 33 33 42.1 15 G A T T T T G G T C T A G C T G A G C T A C C T C A C C 13 43.3 32 32 39.4 14 A T T T T G G T C T A G C T G A G C T A C C T C A C 12 38.2 31 31 37.5 13 T T T T G G T C T A G C T A G A G C T A C C T C A C C 14 46.2 32 30 34.9 12 T T T G G T C T A G C T A G A G C T A C C T C A C 13 41.6 31 32 40.1 15 A T T T T G G T C T A G C T A A G A G C T A C C T C A 12 37.9 30 31 38.4 14 T T T T G G T C T A G C T A T A G A G C T A C C T C A C 13 43.2 31 30 36.1 13 T T T G G T C T A G C T A T A G A G C T A C C T C A 14 39.9 30 29 33.3 12 T T G G T C T A G C T A T A G A G C T A C C T C 12 35.8 29 30 39.7 14 T T T G G T C T A G C T A C T T A G A G C T A C C T C A 14 42.0 30 29 37.6 13 LNA1-4 T T G G T C T A G C T A C x x x T T A G A G C T A C C T C 13 38.3 29 28 35.0 12 T G G T C T A G C T A C T T A G A G C T A C C T 12 34.8 28 29 41.3 14 T T G G T C T A G C T A C A T T T A G A G C T A C C T C 14 40.4 29 28 39.2 13 T G G T C T A G C T A C A T T T A G A G C T A C C T vv 13 37.4 28 27 35.0 12 G G T C T A G C T A C A T T T A G A G C T A C C 12 33.6 27

 Detecting & Monitoring cfDNA Mutations in the Urine of Metastatic Cancer Patients Title BRAF Mutational Analysis of Cell-free DNA from Urine in Patients with Metastatic Cancers Background Metastatic cancer within a patient has extensive tumor heterogeneity and therefore it is difficult to assess metastatic cancer molecularly by a single tissue biopsy to determine optimal targeted therapy. In addition, monitoring for tumor load and emergence of resistant mutations longitudinally is an unmet clinical need. Objectives Measure the degree of concordance between results of DNA mutation analysis from urine samples versus confirmed mutational status of tumor biopsy tissue. Longitudinal assessment over time of mutational status of urinary DNA in the treatment of metastatic cancer patients with correlation to therapeutic response and disease status of the patient. Study Design Urine samples obtained from metastatic cancer patients with known BRAF V600E or KRAS mutations enrolled in the Phase I Clinical Trials Program at MD Anderson Cancer Center CLINICAL PROGRAM
