PhaseBio Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2020 Financial Results and Recent Business Highlights

Update on Phase 3 REVERSE-IT trial - enrollment ahead of schedule

Provides overview of bentracimab development program during virtual Investor & Analyst Day, March 15, 2021, 12-2 pm ET

Announced commercial supply agreement with BioVectra to support the development and commercialization of lead product candidate bentracimab

Expanded pivotal Phase 3 REVERSE-IT trial of bentracimab into Canada and the European Union, and dosed first patients outside of the United States

Malvern, PA and San Diego, CA - March 15, 2021 - PhaseBio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: PHAS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel therapies for cardiopulmonary diseases, today reported financial results for the fourth-quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2020 and provided an update on clinical trial activities.

"Throughout 2020, PhaseBio made significant progress advancing our pipeline of therapies for serious cardiopulmonary diseases,” said Jonathan P. Mow, Chief Executive Officer of PhaseBio Pharmaceuticals. “Our progress was driven by the continued global expansion of the pivotal Phase 3 REVERSE-IT trial of our lead product candidate bentracimab, which has now enrolled more than half of the first 100 patients needed to support a BLA submission. We’ve generated this momentum by expanding the REVERSE-IT trial into Canada and the European Union, and we also recently announced a commercial supply agreement with BioVectra to support the continued development and eventual commercial supply of bentracimab, if approved."

Mow continued, “Looking ahead into 2021, we are excited to continue advancing this pivotal program through key planned milestones including publishing Phase 2a data, announcing the interim analysis of the first 100 patients from the REVERSE-IT Phase 3 trial, initiating additional trial sites abroad, and working with key collaborators on our bentracimab commercialization plans. We also remain focused on advancing pemziviptadil for pulmonary arterial hypertension and are targeting to report Phase 2b data in the second half of 2021.”

Bentracimab (PB2452) Highlights

Accelerated Enrollment in Ongoing REVERSE-IT Phase 3 Clinical Trial: As of March 2021, the REVERSE-IT Phase 3 clinical trial had enrolled 60 of the first approximately 100 patients needed to support a Biologics License Application (BLA), nearly all of whom to date have required urgent surgery or an invasive procedure. PhaseBio is attempting to accelerate enrollment of patients with uncontrolled major or life-threatening bleeding, including by working to increase the number of enrolling clinical trial sites in the United States, Canada, and the European Union as it is believed that a broader site footprint will increase the probability of enrolling these patients. All of the first approximately 100 patients enrolled in the REVERSE-IT trial will be measured against the same VerifyNow® PRUTest biomarker that is the primary endpoint for all patients enrolled in the REVERSE-IT trial. The trial is enrolling faster than PhaseBio originally projected, and PhaseBio



now expects to complete enrollment of the first 100 patients in mid-2021 and is targeting to submit a BLA for bentracimab in mid-2022, although those timelines could be impacted by the continued scope and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. Bentracimab is a novel, human monoclonal antibody fragment that in earlier clinical trials has shown immediate and sustained reversal of the antiplatelet effects of Brilinta® (ticagrelor).

Announced Supply Agreement with BioVectra for Bentracimab to Support Development and Commercialization: In March 2021, PhaseBio announced a commercial scale supply agreement with BioVectra, an innovative global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), for the production of bentracimab. Under the terms of the agreement, BioVectra will provide its integrated CDMO services for the manufacturing of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) of bentracimab for use in PhaseBio’s ongoing Phase 2b and Phase 3 clinical trials and for global commercial use if bentracimab receives regulatory approval.

Expanded REVERSE-IT Trial into the European Union and Dosed First Patients: In January 2021, PhaseBio announced that, working with its financing and co-development partner SFJ Pharmaceuticals, PhaseBio had expanded the REVERSE-IT trial into the European Union, having opened trial sites for enrollment and began dosing its first patients.

Expanded REVERSE-IT Trial into Canada and Dosed First Patients: In October 2020, PhaseBio announced that it had expanded the Phase 3 trial of bentracimab into Canada, where the first patients outside of the United States were enrolled and dosed. Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of mortality in the United States, Canada and globally. The company also announced that the global Phase 3 trial had been named REVERSE-IT (Rapid and SustainEd ReVERSal of TicagrElor – Intervention Trial).

Initiated Phase 3 Clinical Trial for Bentracimab: In March 2020, PhaseBio commenced the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial to evaluate reversal of the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor in patients with uncontrolled major or life-threatening bleeding or requiring urgent surgery or an invasive procedure.

Received PRIME Designation for Bentracimab from European Medicines Agency: In February 2020, bentracimab was granted PRIority MEdicines (PRIME) designation by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for the reversal of the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor in patients with uncontrolled major or life-threatening bleeding or requiring urgent surgery or an invasive procedure. The EMA prioritizes PRIME designated drugs for special support, including enhanced interactions and dialogue with the EMA during development, as well as a pathway for accelerated evaluation and review for marketing authorization.

Received Written Scientific Advice from EMA Confirming the Bentracimab Clinical Development Plan: In February 2020, PhaseBio received written guidance from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the EMA that generally agreed with PhaseBio’s proposed development plan for bentracimab. After reviewing the Scientific Advice from CHMP, PhaseBio believes that the development plan for bentracimab has been designed to support regulatory filings in the European Union. PhaseBio similarly believes that the development plan for bentracimab has been designed to support regulatory filings in the United States based on feedback from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Entered Into Financing and Co-Development Collaboration with SFJ Pharmaceuticals®: In January 2020, PhaseBio announced a financing and co-development and collaboration with SFJ Pharmaceuticals (SFJ) to support the development of bentracimab. Under the terms of the agreement, SFJ agreed to fund up to $120 million to support the clinical development of bentracimab and to assume a central role in global clinical development and regulatory activities for bentracimab outside of the United States.

From execution of the co-development agreement through December 31, 2020, SFJ Pharmaceuticals has funded or reimbursed $47.1 million of clinical trial costs and other expenses of the initial $90 million commitment under the agreement, leaving $42.9 million of funding remaining available to support the Phase 3



program through the end of 2021. PhaseBio is eligible to receive up to an additional $30 million of funding if specific, pre-defined clinical development milestones for bentracimab are met.

Pemziviptadil (PB1046) and Other Pipeline Highlights

Presented Data from Phase 1b/2a Trial of Pemziviptadil for the Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension at Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute Virtual World Congress: In January 2021, PhaseBio announced presentation of data from a Phase 1b/2a pilot study highlighting three patients who received pemziviptadil (PB1046), the company’s first-in-class, sustained-release vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) analogue for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The data, which were presented virtually at the 15th Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute (PVRI) World Congress on January 27, 2021, continue to highlight the favorable safety and tolerability profile of pemziviptadil, as well as clinically-meaningful, long-term improvement of six-minute walk test (6MWT) distance for one patient after 18 months of treatment. Additionally, the data demonstrate stability in functional status with no clinically-meaningful deterioration for two patients at two and six months after treatment. All three patients completed the study with no drug-related serious adverse events associated with study drug discontinuation and pemziviptadil appeared to be well tolerated.

Resumed Enrollment in Ongoing Phase 2b Trial of Pemziviptadil in PAH: In October 2020, PhaseBio announced that the ongoing Phase 2b trial of pemziviptadil in patients with PAH, named the VIP trial (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide in adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension), resumed enrollment after a pause related to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and re-prioritization of drug supply to the VANGARD trial. At the time of announcement, approximately one-third of the patients targeted for enrollment had completed the initial 16-week protocol, with approximately 90% of these patients electing to enroll in VIP EXTEND (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide extension trial in adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension), the open label extension of the Phase 2b trial. PhaseBio is targeting to report results from the VIP in the second half of 2021, although that timeline could be impacted by the continued scope and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bolstered Pipeline with Acquisition of Novel Oral Aldosterone Synthase Inhibitor for Treatment-Resistant Hypertension: In January 2020, PhaseBio signed an agreement with Viamet Pharmaceuticals Holdings, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Selenity Pharmaceuticals (Bermuda), Ltd., under which PhaseBio acquired all of the assets and intellectual property rights related to certain novel aldosterone synthase inhibitors, including the company’s lead development compound, now called PB6440, being developed for treatment-resistant hypertension. In preclinical studies completed to date, PB6440 was observed to be a highly potent and selective inhibitor of aldosterone synthase (CYP11B2) versus the closely related steroid 11β-hydroxylase enzyme (CYP11B1). PB6440 demonstrated dose-dependent aldosterone reduction without a significant increase in 11-deoxycorticosterone or deoxycortisol in both rodent and primate models.

Operational Updates

Appointed New Member to the Board of Directors: In February 2020, Alex C. Sapir was appointed to the company's board of directors.

12 URGENT SURGERY OR INTERVENTION • Currently oral P2Y12 agents, including ticagrelor, require a 5-day washout prior to surgery1,2 Urgent surgery often cannot wait 5 days Higher thrombotic risk during washout • In Phase 1 and Phase 2A studies, bentracimab observed to immediately and sustainably reverse ticagrelor inhibition of platelet activation Enables immediate surgery • Within the oral P2Y12 inhibitor class, ticagrelor has proven superiority vs. clopidogrel, and a unique reversible binding profile Clopidogrel and prasugrel, the other members of the oral P2Y12 antagonist class, both permanently bind to the receptor and cannot be reversed • Uncontrolled major bleeding is the main adverse event associated with the P2Y12 inhibitor class of therapies • Bentracimab is the only specific reversal agent in development for ticagrelor for both surgical and active bleed indications • Approval would differentiate ticagrelor on safety vs. other oral antiplatelet agents Bentracimab: Novel Reversal Agent for Brilinta (Ticagrelor) 1. Plavix/clopidogrel Prescribing Information: https://packageinserts.bms.com/pi/pi_plavix.pdf, https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/product-information/plavix-epar-product-information_en.pdf 2. Brilinta/Brilique/ticagrelor Prescribing Information: https://www.azpicentral.com/brilinta/brilinta.pdf#page=1, https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/product-information/brilique-epar-product-information_en.pdf MAJOR BLEEDING • Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH), GI, Trauma • All oral antiplatelet agents have the potential to cause major bleeding, which can be severe or even fatal • Bentracimab designed to immediately and sustainably reverse the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor Significant unmet need for antiplatelet agent reversal


 
P2Y12 Inhibitors Are Linked to Uncontrolled Bleeding and Can Complicate Surgeries and Invasive Procedures 13 Uncontrolled Major Bleeding Urgent Surgeries and Invasive Procedures • Intracranial • Subdural • Subarachnoid • Gastrointestinal • Retroperitoneal • Traumatic injuries • Post-operative bleeding • Intraocular • Pericardial • Intraspinal • Intraarticular • Intramuscular • Genitourinary tract • Pulmonary/bronchial • Coronary artery bypass grafting • Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair • Pericardiocentesis • Gastrointestinal, hepatic or renal surgeries • Orthopedic surgeries • Knee and hip replacement • Fracture repair • Spinal surgeries • Septic arthritis • Abdominal hernia • Urologic surgeries and procedures • Vascular surgeries • Endoscopic procedures • Biopsies • Urgent and elective surgeries, and invasive diagnostic procedures can be complicated by antiplatelet therapy • The availability of an effective ticagrelor reversal agent with an immediate onset of action has the potential to: Mitigate bleeding risk Change the management of patients who require surgery while on antiplatelet therapy


 
Intracranial Hemorrhage Case Study1 Highlights the Delicate Balance Between Managing the Bleed and Protecting the Stent • A 59-year old male with a history of coronary artery disease, hypertension and hyperlipidemia reported sudden onset headache, mild dysmetria and severe nausea. Medical history included a PCI performed 2 weeks ago for symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) with placement of two platinum-chromium everolimus-eluting (PROMUS Element™; Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) drug eluting stents (DES) in the left anterior descending and circumflex artery. Left ventricular ejection fraction was sixty percent. DAT with aspirin and clopidogrel was initiated post-procedure. • On admission to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) the patient was normotensive with a 1Glasgow Coma Scale of 15. Computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a left para- median cerebellar hemorrhage measuring 29 mm × 18 mm with partial effacement of the fourth ventricle (Figure 1). The lateral and third ventricles were within normal limits with no evidence of hydrocephalus. • After consultation with the cardiologist, neurosurgeon and neuro-intensivist, a decision was made to hold clopidogrel and continue aspirin. Due to the very recent placement of the DES, the cardiologist felt that stopping all anti-platelet therapy would significantly increase the risk of a major cardiovascular event. No platelets were administered to reverse the effects of the anti-platelet drugs. Hourly clinical neurological evaluations and a repeat CT scan was performed 12 hours after the admission CT. This scan demonstrated no enlargement of the intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) or ventricular dilation. Both clinical and biochemical indicators of cardiac ischemia were absent during aspirin monotherapy. • After one week, with the absence of any clinical or radiological deterioration, the cardiologist and neurosurgeon felt that the risk of stent thrombosis was greater than the risk of worsening intracranial hemorrhage. Clopidogrel was restarted and a repeat CT scan following re-commencement demonstrated a stable ICH with no radiological features of enlargement. The patient was discharged home without any further complications. 141. Naik BI, Keeley EC, Gress DR, Zuo Z.

Bentracimab: Well-Characterized Mechanism of Ticagrelor Reversal 16 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. ADP binds to P2Y12 receptor causing platelet aggregation Ticagrelor binds to P2Y12, inhibiting ADP-induced platelet aggregation Bentracimab binds to free ticagrelor with very high affinity This is a reversible process with ticagrelor cycling on/off the P2Y12 receptors Bentracimab-ticagrelor binding is preferential to ticagrelor-P2Y12 binding due to 100x higher affinity (Ki 20 pM vs 2nM) As free ticagrelor is eliminated, ADP can again activate the P2Y12 receptor, restoring platelet activity Bentracimab-ticagrelor is cleared from the bloodstream Bentracimab


 
Ticagrelor Clinical Evidence Supports Broad Use • Ticagrelor clinical development program encompassed six major outcomes trials enrolling nearly 100,000 patients PLATO, PEGASUS-TIMI-54, SOCRATES, EUCLID, THALES, and THEMIS The four trials linked to the current ticagrelor prescribing label are highlighted above • Broad label for the reduction of risk of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke in the following patient populations: Acute coronary syndrome Patients with a history of myocardial infarction Patients with coronary artery disease at high risk for myocardial infarction or stroke Acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack 17 PLATO PEGASUS-TIMI-54 THEMIS THALES


 
THEMIS Trial and Recent Ticagrelor Label Expansion 18 • Patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes mellitus (T2D) are at high risk for cardiovascular events • Data from the THEMIS1 trial highlights the potential for ticagrelor to reduce the risk of ischemic cardiovascular events in CAD patients with T2D A higher risk of major bleeding in the ticagrelor-treated population was also observed • According to the CDC2, there are over 30 million T2D patients in the United States Approximately 25% of T2D patients have CAD3 • Approval of bentracimab could help mitigate bleeding risk in ticagrelor in patients with established CAD and T2D 1.

• Following coronary stenting a significant number of patients undergo noncardiac surgery May require DAPT interruption • Poses a significant clinical dilemma: DAPT interruption exposes patients to potential risk of stent thrombosis, perioperative myocardial infarction, or both Continuing DAPT may be associated with excess bleeding complications • Decisions regarding perioperative management of antiplatelet therapy: Involve a complex interplay of clinical variables Require an individualized approach Stent Thrombosis: DAPT Complicates Surgery for Post-PCI Patients 20Banerjee S, Angiolillo DJ, Boden WE, Murphy JG, Khalili H, Hasan AA, Harrington RA, Rao SV.

Hypothetical Future Paradigm for Bridging Oral P2Y12 Patients Ahead of Surgery Following Potential Bentracimab Launch 22 • Bentracimab could potentially change the way surgeries and invasive procedures are managed in P2Y12 patients - Switching from clopidogrel or prasugrel to ticagrelor is well defined in international treatment guidelines1 - Maintaining platelet inhibition, especially in recently-stented patients, should be a top priority to minimize the risk of stent thrombosis - Elimination of inpatient stays ahead of surgeries has the potential to drive down costs and free up hospital beds - Post-op resumption of ticagrelor instead of clopidogrel provides a safety net that could help mitigate the downstream impact of subsequent bleeds or surgical needs Bentracimab could allow ticagrelor patients to remain on oral antiplatelet therapy up to the day of surgery and potentially provide a strategy to mitigate post-operative bleeding complications if patients are discharged on ticagrelor 1.

bentracimab REVERSE-IT Clinical Data Objectives 41 REVERSE-IT Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) concluded first meeting in January 2021 • No concerning safety signals identified in first 25 enrolled patients • Unanimous recommendation to continue REVERSE-IT as currently designed REVERSE-IT efficacy objectives: Immediate and sustained reversal as observed in previous studies • If reproduced in Phase 3, would dramatically improve hemostasis in urgent surgery and bleeding populations - No observed non-responders from previous studies - Target fewer procedure-related bleeding events, fewer transfusions, shorter ICU and hospital LOS - Target low thrombotic event rate confirming absent pro-thrombotic rebound effect as in previous studies REVERSE-IT trial in ticagrelor patients with major bleeding or who need urgent surgery (N=100 for Interim Analysis, N=200 total) Screening (pre-dose) Central Adjudication • Inclusion criteria • Hemostasis • Thrombotic Events


 
bentracimab REVERSE-IT Predominance of Surgical Patients 42 Pandemic impact on bleeding patient admissions • Reduction in hospital admissions for major adverse spontaneous events like bleeding • Broad, global moratorium on clinical research and furloughs of research staff • Smaller REVERSE-IT footprint significantly reduced size of “safety net” to catch random events Pandemic impact on urgent surgery patient enrollment • Urgent surgical cases benefit from physician-managed patient flow (active vs passive recruitment) • Patients with progressive disease waited longer for medical follow-up, creating backlog of urgent cases • Major health centers re-opened to urgent or emergent cases first, creating robust environment to enroll REVERSE-IT trial in ticagrelor patients with major bleeding or who need urgent surgery (N=100 for Interim Analysis, N=200 total) Screening (pre-dose) Central Adjudication • Inclusion criteria • Hemostasis • Thrombotic Events


 
bentracimab REVERSE-IT Plan to Accelerate Bleeding Patient Recruitment 43 Internal resources re-allocated to bleeding site activation to widen catchment area • Prioritizing sites to lean towards bleeding recruitment – neurosurgery, stroke centers, trauma • Supplement surgical footprint with expanded bleeding site network – enabled by robust surgical enrollment • Utilize boutique vendors and technology platforms to reduce time-to-activation metrics Shift site phenotype away from ticagrelor volume and focus on total bleeding volume • Identify large stroke, neurosurgery, and trauma centers in US rather than largest ticagrelor prescribers - Some percentage of these cases will be in ticagrelor patients • Outreach by our cardiovascular and ticagrelor KOLs to engage stroke and trauma KOLs REVERSE-IT trial in ticagrelor patients with major bleeding or who need urgent surgery (N=100 for Interim Analysis, N=200 total) Screening (pre-dose) Central Adjudication • Inclusion criteria • Hemostasis • Thrombotic Events
