Regulatory Studies 03-133 and 101 to form basis for BLA submission, expected in 2019 Study 101 has also been designed to satisfy FDA confirmatory study and post-marketing requirements – expected to enroll at least 14 more patients in addition to initial 18 patients Orphan Drug, Breakthrough Therapy and Rare Pediatric Disease Designations (1) Commercial No approved or effective treatment regimens for CNS/LM from NB are currently available and goal of treatment is generally palliative Current standard of care has had very limited success, with median OS of ~6 months Plan for US commercialization, if approved
