Late-Breaking Results from XARELTO® PIONEER AF-PCI Study Among 18 New Studies Accepted for Presentation at the American Heart Association
Scientific Sessions 2016

• PIONEER AF-PCI results, evaluating XARELTO^® (rivaroxaban) in people with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting, will be released during a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial session

• Two INVOKANA^® (canagliflozin) studies aim to provide new insights into the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes at risk for either major adverse cardiovascular events or kidney disease progression

• Topline findings from a Premier Inc. analysis of more than 1.5 million hospital admissions over more than five years will show rates of oral anticoagulant use among hospitalized patients with AF at high risk of stroke

Titusville, N.J., Nov. 7, 2016 – Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Janssen) today announced that results from the Phase 3b PIONEER AF-PCI study with XARELTO^® (rivaroxaban) and new INVOKANA^® (canagliflozin) research will be presented at this year’s American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions in New Orleans, LA, November 12-16, 2016.

PIONEER AF-PCI, which the AHA accepted as a Late-Breaking Clinical Trial presentation, is the first randomized study to evaluate whether a non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant (NOAC), specifically XARELTO^®, can provide an improved safety profile compared to warfarin when given to people with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) also receiving antiplatelet therapy after PCI with stenting.

Approximately five to eight percent of people undergoing PCI have atrial fibrillation. For these patients, current guidelines recommend a practice known as “triple therapy”, combining dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and warfarin; however, this approach has been associated with an increased risk in bleeding. Until PIONEER AF-PCI, no clinical trials have investigated the safety and efficacy of a NOAC compared to warfarin plus dual antiplatelet therapy among people with NVAF undergoing PCI.

Other notable presentations include new, real-world research evaluating persistence and adherence levels for XARELTO^®, and topline results from an analysis of the Premier Healthcare Database evaluating rates of oral anticoagulant use in people with NVAF at hospital discharge.

For INVOKANA^®, Janssen will unveil the design and rationale for the CANagliflozin cardioVascular Assessment Study–Renal (CANVAS-R) study, which aims to provide new insights into the effects of INVOKANA^® compared to placebo on the benefits of renal disease risk reduction. In addition, a post-hoc analysis of data from four Phase 3 studies will show the efficacy and safety of INVOKANA^® in people with type 2 diabetes based on cardiovascular disease history and risk factors.

“Janssen aims to improve the lives of the millions of people with cardiovascular disease and diabetes by bringing patients transformational care and innovative treatment options,” said Paul Burton, MD, PhD, FACC, Vice President, Medical Affairs, Janssen. “This important line-up of late-breaking, clinical and real-world research will reveal new insights with the potential to challenge the current standard of care.”

Following is a full list of company-sponsored abstracts to be presented at the meeting:

WHAT IS XARELTO^®?

XARELTO^® is a prescription medicine used to reduce the risk of stroke and blood clots in people with atrial fibrillation, not caused by a heart valve problem. For patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how XARELTO^® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke.

XARELTO^® is also a prescription medicine used to treat deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, and to help reduce the risk of these conditions occurring again.

XARELTO^® is also a prescription medicine used to reduce the risk of forming a blood clot in the legs and lungs of people who have just had knee or hip replacement surgery.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT XARELTO^®?

• For people taking XARELTO^® for atrial fibrillation:
  

  People with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart beat) are at an increased risk of forming a blood clot in the heart, which can travel to the brain, causing a stroke, or to other parts of the body. XARELTO^® lowers your chance of having a stroke by helping to prevent clots from forming. If you stop taking XARELTO^®, you may have increased risk of forming a clot in your blood.

  Do not stop taking XARELTO^® without talking to the doctor who prescribes it for you. Stopping XARELTO^® increases your risk of having a stroke.

  If you have to stop taking XARELTO^®, your doctor may prescribe another blood thinner medicine to prevent a blood clot from forming.

• XARELTO^® can cause bleeding, which can be serious, and rarely may lead to death. This is because XARELTO^® is a blood thinner medicine that reduces blood clotting. While you take XARELTO^® you are likely to bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop.
  

You may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take XARELTO^® and take other medicines that increase your risk of bleeding, including:

• Aspirin or aspirin-containing products
  

• Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
  

• Warfarin sodium (Coumadin^®, Jantoven^®)
  

• Any medicine that contains heparin
  

• Clopidogrel (Plavix^®)
  

• Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs)
  

• Other medicines to prevent or treat blood clots

Tell your doctor if you take any of these medicines. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure if your medicine is one listed above.

Call your doctor or get medical help right away if you develop any of these signs or symptoms of bleeding:

• Unexpected bleeding or bleeding that lasts a long time, such as:
  
  • Nosebleeds that happen often
    
  • Unusual bleeding from gums
    
  • Menstrual bleeding that is heavier than normal, or vaginal bleeding

• Bleeding that is severe or that you cannot control
  

• Red, pink, or brown urine

• Bright red or black stools (looks like tar)
  

• Cough up blood or blood clots
  

• Vomit blood or your vomit looks like “coffee grounds”
  

• Headaches, feeling dizzy or weak
  

• Pain, swelling, or new drainage at wound sites

Spinal or epidural blood clots (hematoma): People who take a blood thinner medicine (anticoagulant) like XARELTO^®, and have medicine injected into their spinal and epidural area, or have a spinal puncture, have a risk of forming a blood clot that can cause long-term or permanent loss of the ability to move (paralysis). Your risk of developing a spinal or epidural blood clot is higher if:

• A thin tube called an epidural catheter is placed in your back to give you certain medicine
  

• You take NSAIDs or a medicine to prevent blood from clotting
  

• You have a history of difficult or repeated epidural or spinal punctures
  

• You have a history of problems with your spine or have had surgery on your spine

If you take XARELTO^® and receive spinal anesthesia or have a spinal puncture, your doctor should watch you closely for symptoms of spinal or epidural blood clots. Tell your doctor right away if you have back pain, tingling, numbness, muscle weakness, (especially in your legs and feet), or loss of control of the bowels or bladder (incontinence).
XARELTO^® is not for patients with artificial heart valves.

WHO SHOULD NOT TAKE XARELTO^®?

Do not take XARELTO^® if you:

• Currently have certain types of abnormal bleeding. Talk to your doctor before taking XARELTO^® if you currently have unusual bleeding.
  

• Are allergic to rivaroxaban or any of the ingredients of XARELTO^®.

WHAT SHOULD I TELL MY DOCTOR BEFORE OR WHILE TAKING XARELTO^®?

Before taking XARELTO^®, tell your doctor if you:

• Have ever had bleeding problems
  

• Have liver or kidney problems
  

• Have any other medical condition
  

• Are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if XARELTO^® will harm your unborn baby. Tell your doctor right away if you become pregnant while taking XARELTO^®. If you take XARELTO^® during pregnancy, tell your doctor right away if you have bleeding or symptoms of blood loss.
  

• Are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if XARELTO^® passes into your breast milk. You and your doctor should decide if you will take XARELTO^® or breastfeed.

Tell all of your doctors and dentists that you are taking XARELTO^®. They should talk to the doctor who prescribed XARELTO^® for you before you have any surgery, medical or dental procedure.

Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and nonprescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Some of your other medicines may affect the way XARELTO^® works. Certain medicines may increase your risk of bleeding. See “What is the most important information I should know about XARELTO^®?”

Especially tell your doctor if you take:

• Ketoconazole (Nizoral^®)
  

• Itraconazole (Onmel^™, Sporanox^®)
  

• Ritonavir (Norvir^®)
  

• Lopinavir/ritonavir (Kaletra^®)
  

• Indinavir (Crixivan^®)
  

• Carbamazepine (Carbatrol^®, Equetro^®, Tegretol^®, Tegretol^®-XR, Teril^™, Epitol^®)
