67 WHY PATIENT BLOOD MANAGEMENT?
• PBM extends to all patient populations
• PBM offers appropriate therapy for a disease or condition
• Anaemia management is central to PBM • Modifiable risk factor
• PBM is based on improving patient outcomes
• All consistent with “Clinical Care” and “Good Clinical Practice”
68 TRANSFUSION IS THE ‘DEFAULT’ TREATMENT FOR ALL ANEMIC PATIENTS
One treatment for all patients One size (does not) fit all
Transfusions are associated with worse clinical outcomes High risk with low benefit
Expensive therapy with low benefit = poor efficacy
Cure vs. Treatment Transfusion a short term therapy I.v. iron – a cure!

CONSENSUS STATEMENT International Consensus Statement on the Peri-Operative management od Anaemia and Iron Deficiency
Munoz M et al
• Addresses the high prevalence of anaemia
• Identifies Iron Deficiency Anaemia (IDA) as number one condition
• Strongly recommends the treatment with i.v. iron
• Oral iron ineffective in this population
83 OPTIMAL ANAEMIA TREATMENT AND THE BENEFIT OF PATIENT BLOOD MANAGEMENT
Treatment of perioperative IDA with Ferinject® has been studied in 16 major studies with more than 1’300 patients, incl. RCTs, single-arm studies and observational studies
. Pre-operative iron deficiency anaemia treatment > 700 patients treated with Ferinject® . Post-operative iron deficiency anaemia treatment > 500 patients treated with Ferinject® . Iron deficiency anaemia treatment in the intensive care unit > 100 patients treated with Ferinject®
Key findings Reduction of transfusion rate Increase of Hb and iron store levels Reduction of length of stay Reduction of infection rates Well tolerated treatment

LABEL FEATURE ANALYST’S PREFERENCE Indication No difference
Limitations No difference
Mechanism Veltassa® - calcium exchange mechanism preferable to sodium (concerns about increasing sodium levels, particularly in cardiology) Dosage and Veltassa® - focus is on chronic management, clearer proposition, not convinced by administration 3x daily acute phase with LokelmaTM (potential confusion on positioning) Dosage forms LokelmaTM (just) – slight preference, on lower volume of water, appears to be more miscible powder Storage LokelmaTM - no need for cold chain distribution
Warnings and Veltassa® - similar potential impact on GI motility, but edema issue (sodium-related) precautions with LokelmaTM a key concern, requires more monitoring, changes to diet, diuretics Adverse reactions No difference - more apparent GI issues with Veltassa®, offset by edema issues with LokelmaTM Drug interactions LokelmaTM – 2h interval better than 3h, although drug-drug interactions more theoretical according to lab experiments Clinical data No difference

1Potentially leading to greater separation of BVAS between SOC and Avacopan groups © Vifor Pharma 170 OTHER OPPORTUNITIES FOR AVACOPAN
C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G) • Rare, life-threatening disease; affects young people; renal transplant not curative • Uncontrolled activation of the complement system leading to complement protein deposition in the kidney (glomeruli), disrupting kidney function • No approved therapy • Huge economic burden on health care systems • Potential registration-supporting trial with avacopan underway
Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS): • Chronic disabling skin autoimmune disease that relentlessly progresses; with extremely painful inflammatory nodules, boils or abscesses • Neutrophil-driven disease where C5a involvement is validated • C5a blockade with avacopan via C5aR offers a strong potential to control neutrophil activation • Current incumbent therapy widely regarded as inadequate, yet sales in HS approach $1Bn US

Targeted Approach to Orphan Kidney Diseases Such as FSGS
© Vifor Pharma 172 CCX140 FOR FOCAL SEGMENTAL GLOMERULOSCLEROSIS (FSGS)
Overview Prevalence Number of FSGS cases are rising more than • Orphan disease of the kidney’s filtering units (glomeruli), and is characterized any other cause of Nephrotic Syndrome by serious scarring that leads to permanent kidney damage • Presents with proteinuria, in which protein is found in the urine due to a ̴ 40K ̴ 40K breakdown of the normal filtration mechanism in the kidney • One of the causes of a serious condition known as Nephrotic Syndrome and ~5,400 new cases ~1,500 new cases often leads to ESRD; Primary FSGS often associated with genetic mutation per year in U.S. per year in EU
Rationale Current Treatments • Histologic lesion from glomerular injury affecting specialized kidney No Approved Therapies filtering cells, especially podocytes; new science shows CCR2 in FSGS • Non-specific treatment approaches include steroids to kidney and role for CCR2 in renal cell (podocyte) protection control proteinuria or immuno-suppressants • CCX140 has demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in proteinuria in previous Phase II clinical trial in DN patients
Status Two registration-supporting clinical trials underway

Rescue if no partial response; otherwise continue Trial #1: Nephrotic syndrome primary CCX140, Dose range from 5 mg QD to Screening FSGS (≥ 3 gram/day baseline proteinuria) 15 mg BID (n=6 to 13) Expand to 30-50 patients for pivotal part 21
CCX140, 5 mg QD (n=10) Trial #2: Sub-nephrotic primary FSGS (at least 1 gram/day baseline proteinuria) CCX140, 10 mg BID (n=10) Screening Highest safe dose ( 12 weeks open label) • Stratify by level of proteinuria and CCX140, 15 mg BID (n=10) immunosuppressant treatment (yes/no) (Biopsy-proven Placebo (n=10) primary FSGS & assess proteinuria levels) 0 12 24
Study Assessments – Reduction in Proteinuria from Baseline (weeks)
Trial #1: Nephrotic Syndrome Primary FSGS: Trial #2: Sub-Nephrotic Primary FSGS • ≥ 3 gram/day baseline proteinuria • At least 1 gram/day baseline proteinuria • First presentation or new flare following prior • Decrease in proteinuria from baseline anticipated effective treatment accelerated approval endpoint • *Significant decrease in proteinuria from baseline • Reduced in decline in eGFR anticipated full approval approvable endpoint endpoint
