Additional Information

Additional Relevant Details The U.S. Food and Drug Administration will require additional time to complete its review of the Biologics License Application for HEPLISAV-B, Dynavax's investigational vaccine for immunization of adults against hepatitis B infection. In a notice received from the FDA, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act action date for HEPLISAV-B has been extended by three months to December 15, 2016.
On April 8, in response to an FDA request, Dynavax submitted individual trial data sets that had been provided as integrated data in the March 2016 BLA resubmission. FDA then determined that the addition of these large data sets represented a major amendment to the BLA and thus extended the PDUFA action date to allow for a full review.The HEPLISAV-B BLA is based on results from clinical trials that have generated data in more than 14,000 total participants.

Management Comment Dynavax Technologies Corporation  today announced that it has received a Complete Response Letter (CRL) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding its Biologics License Application (BLA) for HEPLISAV-B™ for immunization of adults 18 years and older against hepatitis B infection. The FDA issues CRLs to communicate that the Agency has completed a review cycle of an application and to request additional information for review and approval. Dynavax expects a Class 2 designation for a resubmission of the BLA, which would result in a target review period of six months.

"The CRL is consistent with our opinion that HEPLISAV-B is approvable and we are seeking to meet with the FDA as soon as possible," said Eddie Gray, chief executive officer of Dynavax. "However, the time and resources that will be required to gain approval leads us to consider that we may not be able to advance this program on our own and we are moving swiftly to identify a potential pharmaceutical or financial partner. We will maintain our efforts on the oncology programs, including our lead cancer immunotherapy candidate, SD-101, for which we recently announced encouraging early clinical data in metastatic melanoma."
