 - Reaffirms 2015 U.S. Product Revenue Guidance -

Sunnyvale, CA, February 18, 2015 -- Pharmacyclics, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PCYC) today reported financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, as well as commercial, regulatory and clinical updates.

Key Highlights

·
In the first full year of IMBRUVICA® (ibrutinib) sales, the Company recorded total revenue of $730 million, driven by U.S. net product revenue of $492 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to U.S. net product revenue of $14 million for the prior year.
·
Worldwide IMBRUVICA net product revenue of $548 million was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2014, including net product revenue of $56 million from outside of the U.S. as reported by our collaboration partner Janssen Biotech, Inc. and its affiliates (Janssen).
·
Strong fourth quarter U.S. net product revenue of $185 million was reported, representing 31% quarter over quarter growth.
·
The fourth quarter represents the second profitable quarter under the worldwide collaboration and license agreement (Agreement) with Janssen.
·
IMBRUVICA received regular (full) U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval on January 29, 2015, as the first and only treatment for patients with Waldenstrom’s Macroglobulinemia (WM), and it is approved in all lines of therapy. This is the fourth indication for IMBRUVICA in less than 15 months. In the United States, approximately 1,500 people are diagnosed each year with WM, the prevalence is approximately 12,000 (G7 incidence estimated at 6,000 and prevalence at 23,000).
·
25 IMBRUVICA trials commenced in 2014 across a variety of hematologic histologies.
·
Research expansion with trials in several solid tumor types will begin in the first half of 2015.

“2014 was a year of significant progress across many fronts for IMBRUVICA and for Pharmacyclics. The high clinical adoption rate by prescribers, steady regulatory advancement inside and outside of the U.S. generation of important clinical data, and quarter-over-quarter increase in product revenue and demand have been important elements in our success to date,” commented Bob Duggan, Chairman & CEO of Pharmacyclics. “With the elevation of IMBRUVICA to Category 1 status within NCCN guidelines, continued growing demand within our approved indications, and market expansion in support of our new FDA label/fourth indication, we anticipate IMBRUVICA 2015 U.S. net product revenue of approximately $1 billion.  Simultaneous with robust commercial expansion in 2015, we will continue to advance our understanding of the use of IMBRUVICA as a single agent and in combination with other therapies of high drug value. We will not pause in our purpose to make a difference for the betterment of patients until they achieve a cure and we return them to normal living.”

Financial Results for the Quarter and Year Ended December 31, 2014

Total Revenue
 
For the year ended December 31, 2014, total revenue increased to $730 million, compared to $260 million for the prior year, primarily due to $479 million increase in IMBRUVICA net product revenue, as the year ended December 31, 2014 was our first full year of IMBRUVICA product sales.

Total revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 increased to $290 million from $124 million in the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a $172 million increase in IMBRUVICA net product revenue year over year.
 
Milestone Revenue
 
In connection with the Agreement, we recognized $100 million of milestone revenue during the quarter ended December 31, 2014, compared to $110 million for the same period a year ago.
 
Milestone revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 of $100 million was based on two events: 1) the EC’s approval of IMBRUVICA for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) on October 17, 2014 which triggered milestone payments to us of $80 million under the Agreement and 2) the EMA’s acceptance of a Type II variation application for IMBRUVICA for the treatment of adult patients with WM on December 1, 2014 which triggered a milestone payment to us of $20 million under the Agreement.
 
To date, in addition to the upfront payment of $150 million, milestone payments of $605 million have been earned under the Agreement and the Company maintains the potential to receive up to an additional $220 million in development ($50 million), regulatory ($50 million) and approval ($120 million) milestone payments from Janssen, assuming specific targets are achieved.
 
GAAP and Non-GAAP net income
 
Non-GAAP net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $75 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $24 million, or $0.30 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.
 
Non-GAAP net income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $140 million, or $1.80 per diluted share, compared to non-GAAP net income of $1 million or $0.01 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2013. See “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a description of the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures.  Reconciliation between certain GAAP and Non-GAAP measures is provided at the end of this press release.
 
GAAP net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $63 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $64 million or $0.82 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.
 
GAAP net income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $86 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net income of $67 million or $0.87 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Commercial and Medical Affairs Update

In January 2015, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines® Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphomas, Version 1.2014) for relapsed/refractory (R/R) CLL updated its guidelines to elevate use of IMBRUVICA to a Category 1 designation.
 
In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company announced the launch of informCLL™, a large, observational, prospective registry that will explore the natural history of CLL, examine how IMBRUVICA and other approved targeted therapies are being used to treat patients with CLL, and provide a comparison to treatments using conventional chemoimmunotherapy. The CLL registry will enroll more than 1,000 patients with CLL or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) from community and academic institutions across the U.S. Registry enrollment is planned to begin in the first half of 2015.
 
Regulatory Update

 
On January 29, 2015, the U.S. FDA granted full approval for the use of IMBRUVICA (across all lines of treatment) for patients with WM, a rare, indolent form of blood cancer. This is the fourth FDA label approval for IMBRUVICA in less than 15 months and represents a significant milestone for WM patients as it now is the first and only drug approved for this rare blood cancer. IMBRUVICA received FDA Breakthrough Therapy Designation for this indication in February 2013. The FDA application was filed on October 20, 2014 and was approved more than two months ahead of the April 17, 2015 Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target date.
 
Previously, the Company announced that the EMA accepted a Type II variation application for IMBRUVICA to be used as a treatment for patients with WM. This triggered a milestone payment to the Company of $20 million.
 
Clinical Update

In November 2014, the Company announced a clinical trial collaboration agreement with AstraZeneca to evaluate the efficacy and safety of its investigational anti-PD-L1 immune checkpoint inhibitor, MEDI4736, in combination with IMBRUVICA as a treatment for hematologic cancers including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). A separate agreement will also study this investigational combination in solid tumors. In addition, a clinical trial collaboration agreement was also signed to explore separate combinations of two different AstraZeneca investigational products including a PI3 kinase pathway inhibitor and an mTOR inhibitor in combination with IMBRUVICA for the treatment of R/R DLBCL.
 
This follows two earlier collaborations that were announced in October 2014. One was for a clinical trial collaboration to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of Bristol-Myers Squibb’s investigational PD-1 immune checkpoint inhibitor, nivolumab, in combination with IMBRUVICA as a potential treatment option for patients with non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL), including DLBCL, FL and CLL. The other one was for a master clinical drug supply agreement with Roche to evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of IMBRUVICA in combination with obinutuzumab, in patients with NHL and CLL/SLL.

During the fourth quarter, 52 clinical, non-clinical and pre-clinical abstracts on IMBRUVICA data were presented at the 56th Annual American Society of Hematology (ASH) Meeting in San Francisco from December 5-9, 2014. Of these abstracts, nine were oral presentations. Key data from select studies evaluating IMBRUVICA’s use as a single agent and in combination included:

 
·
New longer term data from the Phase III RESONATE™ (PCYC-1112) in IMBRUVICA patients with relapsed/refractory CLL, including high-risk CLL patients with del 17p demonstrated at 12 months an 84% progression-free survival (PFS) rate in all patients with previously treated CLL or SLL who received IMBRUVICA and at 12 months a 94% PFS rate in patients who received only one prior therapy. One hundred twenty-two patients (62%) randomized to ofatumumab crossed over to IMBRUVICA; the best ORR for single-agent IMBRUVICA was 90% versus 25% for ofatumumab, with 74% of IMBRUVICA patients achieving a partial response (PR), 8% partial responses with lymphocytosis (PR-L) and 4% complete responses (CR). The most frequent Grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) in the RESONATE trial analysis occurring in IMBRUVICA patients were: neutropenia (18%); pneumonia (9%); thrombocytopenia (6%); anemia (6%); and, hypertension (6%).

 
·
Results were presented from Phase II RESONATE™-17 (PCYC-1117), the largest prospective trial dedicated to studying CLL or SLL patients with del 17p (n=114) showing that IMBRUVICA was associated with an 83% overall response rate (ORR). Seventy-nine percent of patients were alive and had not progressed at 11.5 months, with an OS rate of 84%. The most common Grade 3 or 4 AEs in the RESONATE-17 trial (occurring in > 5% of IMBRUVICA patients) were neutropenia (14%), anemia (8%), and hypertension (8%).

 
·
IMBRUVICA’s impact on patient well-being also was presented from a sub-analysis of the Phase III RESONATE trial showing that IMBRUVICA was associated with improvements in hematologic function and disease burden in previously treated CLL/SLL patients versus those treated with ofatumumab. The data suggest the survival benefit afforded by IMBRUVICA, combined with sustained improvements in key endpoints of the trial including patient-reported outcomes, may enhance patient quality of life while also prolonging survival.

 
·
New Phase II data reported IMBRUVICA’s potential utility as a combination therapy when used with rituximab. The data suggested that the overall efficacy and safety profile of IMBRUVICA is well tolerated when combined with rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). IMBRUVICA was combined with rituximab in a single-center, Phase II trial in 50 relapsed/refractory MCL patients. After a median follow-up of 11 months (range 4-16 months), the ORR for all 50 patients was 88% (56% CRs and 48% PRs) patients and for the 34 patients with lower levels (< 50) of the Ki-67 protein, a known marker associated with cell growth, the ORR was 100% (56% CRs and 44% PRs). The median duration of response (DOR) and PFS have not yet been reached. There were no deaths due to toxicity. Grade 1 hematologic toxicity events included anemia (30%) and thrombocytopenia (25%). The most common treatment-emergent, non-hematologic adverse events (occurring in > 15% of patients treated with IMBRUVICA plus rituximab) included fatigue; diarrhea; myalgia and dyspnea. This combination has been well tolerated.

 
·
Phase II data also reported during the meeting showed that IMBRUVICA demonstrates anti-tumor activity both as a single-agent and as combination therapy in heavily pre-treated patients with relapsed or relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM).

On January 5, 2015, the Company announced that the use of IMBRUVICA in treatment-naive and previously treated high-risk CLL patients resulted in a significant response rate, with 92% of high-risk CLL patients with del 17p or tumor protein 53 (TP53 aberrations) achieving an objective response (50% achieved a partial response (PR; n=24) and 42% achieved a PR with lymphocytosis (n=20)). These high-risk patients typically do not respond well to standard therapies. The results were published in The Lancet Oncology.

The estimated PFS at 24 months for all patients on an intention-to-treat basis was 82% (95% CI, 71-94). Forty-two of the 51 patients enrolled in the study (82%) continued on IMBRUVICA treatment without disease progression. The most frequent Grade 3 or 4 hematologic AEs in this study were neutropenia (24%), anemia (14%) and thrombocytopenia (10%).

IMBRUVICA clinical trials are active in all regions including the U.S., Europe, Asia Pacific, Asia, and Latin America. To date, over 5,600 patients have been treated in Company-sponsored IMBRUVICA trials conducted in over 35 countries involving more than 800 investigators. Currently, 58 IMBRUVICA clinical trials are registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov, of which 13 are Phase III trials. As these trials complete enrollment, approximately 8,600 patients will have participated. In the past 12 months, the Company initiated one Company- sponsored Phase III trial and two medical research center-sponsored Phase III trials. Currently, there are eight Phase III trials in CLL, two Phase III trials in MCL, one Phase III trial in DLBCL, one Phase III trial in FL, and one Phase III trial in WM.

About IMBRUVICA

IMBRUVICA (ibrutinib) is a first-in-class, oral, once-daily therapy that inhibits a protein called Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK). BTK is a key signaling molecule in the B-cell receptor signaling complex that plays an important role in the survival and spread of malignant B cells. IMBRUVICA blocks signals that tell malignant B cells to multiply and spread uncontrollably.1

IMBRUVICA is approved for the treatment of patients with CLL who have received at least one prior therapy, CLL patients with del 17p a genetic mutation that occurs when part of chromosome 17 has been lost, and patients with WM.1

IMBRUVICA is also approved for the treatment of patients MCL who have received at least one prior therapy. Accelerated approval was granted for the MCL indication based on overall response rate (ORR). Continued approval for the MCL indication may be contingent upon verification of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.1

IMBRUVICA is being studied alone and in combination with other treatments in several blood cancers. Over 5,100 patients have been treated in clinical trials of IMBRUVICA conducted in 35 countries by more than 800 investigators. Currently, 13 Phase III trials have been initiated with IMBRUVICA and 58 trials are registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov.

IMBRUVICA was one the first medicines to receive U.S. FDA approval via the new Breakthrough Therapy Designation pathway, and is the only product to have received three Breakthrough Therapy Designations.

IMBRUVICA - IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
 
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
 
Hemorrhage - Fatal bleeding events have occurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. Grade 3 or higher bleeding events (subdural hematoma, gastrointestinal bleeding, hematuria, and post-procedural hemorrhage) have occurred in up to 6% of patients. Bleeding events of any grade, including bruising and petechiae, occurred in approximately half of patients treated with IMBRUVICA.

The mechanism for the bleeding events is not well understood. IMBRUVICA may increase the risk of hemorrhage in patients receiving antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapies. Consider the benefit-risk of withholding IMBRUVICA for at least 3 to 7 days pre and post-surgery depending upon the type of surgery and the risk of bleeding.

Infections - Fatal and non-fatal infections have occurred with IMBRUVICA therapy. Grade 3 or greater infections occurred in 14% to 26% of patients. Cases of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) have occurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. Monitor patients for fever and infections and evaluate promptly.

Cytopenias - Treatment-emergent Grade 3 or 4 cytopenias including neutropenia (range, 19 to 29%), thrombocytopenia (range, 5 to 17%), and anemia (range, 0 to 9%) occurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. Monitor complete blood counts monthly.

Atrial Fibrillation - Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter (range, 6 to 9%) have occurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA, particularly in patients with cardiac risk factors, acute infections, and a previous history of atrial fibrillation. Periodically monitor patients clinically for atrial fibrillation. Patients who develop arrhythmic symptoms (e.g. palpitations, lightheadedness) or new-onset dyspnea should have an ECG performed. If atrial fibrillation persists, consider the risks and benefits of IMBRUVICA treatment and dose modification.

Second Primary Malignancies - Other malignancies (range, 5 to 14%) including non-skin carcinomas (range, 1 to 3%) have occurred in patients treated with IMBRUVICA. The most frequent second primary malignancy was non-melanoma skin cancer (range, 4 to 11%).

Tumor Lysis Syndrome - Tumor lysis syndrome has been reported with IMBRUVICA therapy. Monitor patients closely and take appropriate precautions in patients at risk for tumor lysis syndrome (e.g. high tumor burden).

Embryo-Fetal Toxicity - Based on findings in animals, IMBRUVICA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise women to avoid becoming pregnant while taking IMBRUVICA. If this drug is used during pregnancy or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus.

ADVERSE REACTIONS
 
The most common adverse reactions (≥25%) in patients with B-cell malignancies (MCL, CLL, WM) were thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, diarrhea, anemia, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, bruising, nausea, upper respiratory tract infection, and rash. Seven percent of patients receiving IMBRUVICA discontinued treatment due to adverse events.

DRUG INTERACTIONS
 
CYP3A Inhibitors - Avoid co-administration with strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors. If a moderate CYP3A inhibitor must be used, reduce the IMBRUVICA dose.

CYP3A Inducers - Avoid co-administration with strong CYP3A inducers.

SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
 
Hepatic Impairment - Avoid use in patients with moderate or severe baseline hepatic impairment. In patients with mild impairment, reduce IMBRUVICA dose.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including costs and expenses and other expenses adjusted to exclude certain cash and non-cash expenses. These measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. The items included in GAAP presentations but excluded for purposes of determining non-GAAP financial measures for the periods presented in this press release are: (i) employee-related non-cash expenses including stock-based compensation expense which may fluctuate from period to period based on factors including the timing and accounting of grants for performance-based stock options and changes in the Company’s stock price which impacts the fair value of options granted, (ii) non-cash amortization of intangible assets, and (iii) Excess Amounts recorded in connection with the Company’s worldwide collaboration and license agreement with Janssen (which prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2014 were included in our GAAP results of operations). The Company believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to management and investors regarding various financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. When GAAP financial measures are viewed in conjunction with non-GAAP financial measures, investors are provided with a more meaningful understanding of our ongoing operating performance. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are among those indicators the Company uses as a basis for evaluating operational performance, allocating resources and planning and forecasting future periods. Non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. To the extent this release contains historical or future non-GAAP financial measures, the Company has also provided corresponding GAAP financial measures for comparative purposes. Reconciliation between certain GAAP and non-GAAP measures is provided at the end of this press release.
