The challenges in future medicine
1. Genomics and biotech allow development of theories and
models in life sciences
2. To recognize health and disease as a process and not asa condition
3. Molecular medicine will cause a shift from intervention to
prevention

– Highly potent, competitive inhibitor of DPP4 – 2 orders of magnitude or greater selectivity for DPP4 versus
other proteases
– Major active mono-hydroxy metabolite (BMS-510849) is 2-foldless potent than saxagliptin
– Pharmacodynamic properties of 5 mg dose consistent with once-
daily dosing
– Rapidly and extensively absorbed after oral dosing; may be takenwithout regard to meals
– Predictable and dose-proportional pharmacokinetics similar inhealthy and diabetic patients with minimal accumulation withonce-daily dosing
– Clearance of saxagliptin and/or its metabolites via metabolism,renal, and non-renal routes

Saxagliptin – Demonstrated Benefits
• Clinically meaningful reductions in A1C, FPG, and PPG
– Demonstrated in wide-range of treatment contexts (monotherapy,
add-on and initial combination)
– Consistent effect across subgroups
– Complementary mechanism of action to currently existing
therapies

Saxagliptin – Favorable Safety Profile
– Studied in extensive clinical program at exposuresup to 80x proposed usual clinical dose
– Well-tolerated at all doses studied in Phase 3
– Low risk for hypoglycemia
– No or minimal differences in body weight change compared with control
– No identified hepatic, pancreatic, renal safety signals
– No human clinical correlate to monkey skin-findings
– Small decrease in mean, absolute lymphocyte count
• Not associated with effect on infectious-related AEs
• Changes stable, non-progressive over long-term dosing
– No identified CV safety signal

Conclusion
• Saxagliptin provides meaningful benefits in
glycemic control
• Saxagliptin provides a favorable safety and
tolerability profile
• Saxagliptin offers a new treatment option with a
favorable benefit / risk profile for patients with
type 2 diabetes
