As outlined in the pre-specified statistical analysis plan submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, a sensitivity analysis was conducted that led to the exclusion of an analysis center with extreme outlier data for the gravimetric measurement of sweat. This analysis center consisted of 14 patients, of whom nine were treated with GT and five received vehicle only. Following the exclusion of this analysis center, patients treated with GT demonstrated an average reduction in sweat production of 96.2 mg as compared to 90.6 mg in patients who received the vehicle only (p=0.001). |

Dermira Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2016 Financial Results and Provides Corporate Update
| Planned submission of NDA for glycopyrronium tosylate (formerly DRM04) in 2H17 on schedule after pre-NDA meeting with FDA |
| Management to host webcast and conference call today at 4:30 p.m. ET / 1:30 p.m. PT |
MENLO PARK, Calif., Feb. 28, 2017 Dermira, Inc. (NASDAQ: DERM), a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to bringing biotech ingenuity to medical dermatology by delivering differentiated, new therapies to the millions of patients living with chronic skin conditions, today reported financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2016 and provided an update on its clinical development programs and financial guidance for 2017.
I am extremely pleased with the progress Dermira made in 2016, which was a transformational year for our company, said Tom Wiggans, chairman and chief executive officer of Dermira. We finished the year on a high note and are off to a strong start in 2017, having started the olumacostat glasaretil Phase 3 program in acne, announced positive data from the final Phase 3 CIMZIA trial in moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis and held our pre-NDA meeting with the FDA for our glycopyrronium tosylate program in primary axillary hyperhidrosis. These milestones have set the stage for what we hope is another productive year for Dermira. We anticipate submitting marketing applications for CIMZIA and an NDA for glycopyrronium tosylate, continuing enrollment for the olumacostat glasaretil Phase 3 program and establishing an experienced commercial organization that will eventually bring our products, if approved, to the people who need them.
Clinical Pipeline Update
| Completed glycopyrronium tosylate (formerly DRM04) Pre-NDA Meeting with FDA In February 2017, Dermira held a meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to discuss Dermiras planned submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) for glycopyrronium tosylate. |
| Announced positive topline results from CIMZIA Phase 3 clinical program In January 2017, December 2016 and October 2016, Dermira and UCB Pharma S.A. announced positive topline results from the CIMPACT, CIMPASI-1 and CIMPASI-2 Phase 3 clinical trials, respectively, evaluating the efficacy and safety of CIMZIA® (certolizumab pegol) in adult patients with moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis. In all three CIMZIA Phase 3 clinical trials, CIMZIA demonstrated statistically significant improvements for all primary or co-primary endpoints compared to placebo at both treatment doses. The safety profile across all three trials appears consistent with the safety profiles observed with CIMZIA for currently approved indications. CIMZIA is not currently approved for the treatment of psoriasis by any regulatory authority worldwide. |
| Initiated Phase 3 clinical program in acne In December 2016, Dermira dosed the first patients in a Phase 3 program evaluating the safety and efficacy of olumacostat |
glasaretil (formerly DRM01), a novel, small molecule designed to target sebum production following topical application, in patients with acne vulgaris. The program consists of two Phase 3 trials to assess the safety and efficacy of olumacostat glasaretil and an additional open-label trial to evaluate long-term safety. The two pivotal trials, CLAREOS-1 and CLAREOS-2, are expected to enroll approximately 1,400 patients. The long-term safety trial, CLARITUDE, is expected to enroll approximately 700 patients from the CLAREOS-1 and CLAREOS-2 trials. |
| Completed treatment period for ARIDO trial In December 2016, the open-label ARIDO Phase 3 trial assessing the long-term safety of glycopyrronium tosylate was completed. Based on a preliminary review of the trial data, the safety and tolerability profile for glycopyrronium tosylate appears consistent with what was observed in the ATMOS-1 and ATMOS-2 Phase 3 clinical trials. |
Financial Highlights
Fourth Quarter 2016 Financial Results
| For the quarter ended December 31, 2016, Dermira reported a net loss of $7.4 million, compared with a net loss of $31.2 million for the same period in 2015. |
| Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $22.5 million. During the quarter, Dermira earned and recognized $21.4 million in collaboration revenue from a related party due to the achievement of the final two development milestones pursuant to its agreement with UCB. In addition, the company recognized $1.1 million of the $25.0 million initial license payment received from Maruho Co., Ltd as collaboration and license revenue in connection with the exclusive license agreement for glycopyrronium tosylate in Japan entered into in September 2016. Dermira did not recognize any revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. |
| Total operating expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 were $30.4 million, compared to $31.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. |
| Research and development expenses for the fourth quarter of 2016 were $20.9 million, compared to $24.4 million for the comparable prior-year period. This decrease was primarily due to lower development costs for the companys product candidates as a result of a reduction in clinical trial activities, partially offset by an increase in personnel-related expenses. |
| General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2016 were $9.5 million, compared to $5.0 million for the comparable prior-year period. This increase was primarily related to higher personnel-related and market research and planning expenses. |
| As of December 31, 2016, Dermira had cash and investments of $276.5 million, no debt and 35.7 million common shares outstanding. The cash and investments balances do not include the $21.4 million in milestones payments earned by Dermira in the fourth quarter of 2016. Dermira received half of this amount in January 2017 and expects to receive the remaining half in the second quarter of 2017. |
Full Year 2016 Financial Results
| For the year ended December 31, 2016, Dermira reported a net loss of $89.1 million, compared to a net loss of $78.4 million for 2015. |
| In 2016, Dermira recognized total revenue of $22.6 million, which included the $21.4 million in collaboration revenue from a related party related to the final two development milestones earned pursuant to the companys agreement with UCB and $1.2 million in collaboration and license revenue representing the portion of the $25.0 million initial license payment from Maruho recognized during the period. In 2015, Dermira recognized collaboration revenue from a related party of $7.3 million for the achievement of a milestone, completion of patient enrollment in the first CIMZIA Phase 3 clinical trial, pursuant to its agreement with UCB. |
| Total operating expenses for 2016 were $113.2 million compared to $86.9 million for 2015. |
| Research and development expenses for 2016 were $83.2 million, compared to $66.8 million for the prior year. This increase was primarily due to higher personnel-related expenses and an increase in external costs related to the companys CIMZIA and glycopyrronium tosylate programs. |
| General and administrative expenses for 2016 were $30.0 million, compared to $17.7 million for 2015. This increase was primarily due to higher personnel-related and market planning and research expenses. |
Key Milestones and Expectations
| Submit an NDA to the FDA for glycopyrronium tosylate for the treatment of primary axillary hyperhidrosis in the second half of 2017, subject to the completion of registration-enabling activities. |
| Submission of marketing applications by UCB in the United States, Europe and Canada for CIMZIA for the treatment of moderate-to-severe chronic plaque psoriasis in the third quarter of 2017. If approved, Dermira would have marketing responsibilities in the United States and Canada. |
| Announce topline results from the olumacostat glasaretil CLAREOS-1 and CLAREOS-2 Phase 3 clinical trials in patients with acne vulgaris in the first half of 2018. |
| Management estimates collaboration and license revenue for 2017 of approximately $4.3 million. Management estimates operating expenses for 2017 of $165.0 - $175.0 million, including estimated stock-based compensation expense of approximately $20.0 million. The estimated increase in 2017 expenses is primarily due to anticipated investments related to planned regulatory submissions for glycopyrronium tosylate and CIMZIA; preparations for |
potential commercial launches of these two product candidates in 2018, including commercial planning and organizational readiness efforts; and activities related to the ongoing olumacostat glasaretil Phase 3 clinical program. |
| Management expects a balance of over $145.0 million in cash and investments at December 31, 2017. |
