(Nasdaq: RDHL) (&#8220;RedHill&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;), a specialty biopharmaceutical company, today announced that new data supporting the use of Talicia<sup>&#174;1</sup> as a first-line therapy for eradication of <em>H. pylori </em>in adults was presented at the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) 2020 Virtual Annual Scientific Meeting. The Company also presented data highlighting the emerging patterns of <em>H.</em> <em>pylori </em>resistance to antibiotics used in current standard-of-care therapies.<br ></p>  <p align="justify">A key objective of the new U.S. Government "National Action Plan for Combating Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria, 2020-2025"<sup>2</sup> is lowering the annual rate of inappropriate outpatient antibiotic prescribing. Efficacy of treatments for <em>H. pylori</em>, one of the most prevalent infections in the U.S. and the leading cause of gastric cancer, has been steadily declining due to increasing levels of antibiotic resistance<sup>3</sup>. In tackling this problem, it is important to ensure successful first-line eradication of <em>H. pylori</em> infection. The analyses presented by RedHill at the ACG annual meeting aim to provide insights that may help avoid the risk of antibiotic resistance in the eradication of <em>H. pylori</em>.</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>Poster 1</strong>: <strong>Persistent </strong><strong><em>H. pylori</em></strong><strong> infection following participation in two randomized controlled</strong> <strong>t</strong><strong>rials: Outcomes of patients receiving physician-directed standard-of-care therapy</strong><sup>4</sup>. <br >This analysis of data from the Talicia Phase 3 studies looked at the cure rates of physician-directed standard-of-care therapy for persistent <em>H. pylori</em> infection. The analysis found that eradication rates with empiric clarithromycin-based triple therapy were predictably low, and that despite declining efficacy of clarithromycin-containing therapies, physicians are still prescribing these regimens.</p>  <p align="justify">&#8220;Despite the ACG treatment guideline recommendations for avoiding clarithromycin-containing triple therapy in patients with prior macrolide use and as salvage treatment, as well as other recommended restrictions based on resistance, clarithromycin-based therapies unfortunately remain an all too often prescribed treatment for&#160;<em>H. pylori</em><em>,</em><em>&#8221;</em> <strong>said Dr. Colin W. </strong><strong>Howden</strong><strong>, MD, AGAF, FACG, Hyman Professor of Medicine &amp; Chief of the Division of Gastroenterology, University of Tennessee Health Science Center</strong><strong>.</strong> &#8220;Because <em>H. pylori</em> treatment is largely empiric, it is important that physicians prescribe a first-line regimen with the highest probability of successful eradication. A treatment regimen that does not contain clarithromycin, such as low dose rifabutin-based therapy, is a good first-line option to consider for <em>H. pylori</em> eradication.&#8221;&#160;</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>Poster </strong><strong>2</strong>: <strong>Efficacy of </strong><strong><em>H. </em></strong><strong><em>p</em></strong><strong><em>ylori</em></strong><strong> eradication by low-dose rifabutin triple therapy (</strong><strong>RHB</strong><strong>-105)&#160;</strong><strong>is unaffected by BMI: Post-hoc analysis from two </strong><strong>P</strong><strong>hase 3 trials</strong><sup>5</sup>.<br >Winner of the ACG &#8220;Outstanding Poster Presenter&#8221; Award.<br >With rising rates of obesity in the U.S., and published data suggesting that Body Mass Index (BMI) may be associated with the failure of clarithromycin-based <em>H. pylori</em> treatments<sup>6</sup>, it is imperative to study the influence of patient BMI on treatment success. This post-hoc analysis assessed the impact of BMI on eradication rates of <em>H. </em><em>pylori</em> in patients with a BMI of both above and below 40<em>, </em>with results demonstrating that eradication rates with Talicia remained within the same high range, irrespective of patient BMI status. This maintenance of Talicia efficacy compares to an almost 50% reduction of eradication rates in amoxicillin/omeprazole-comparator-treated patients with BMI &#8805;40.</p>  <p align="justify">&#8220;Antibiotic treatment failure in obese populations with <em>H. pylori</em> is a significant concern and may be linked to elevations in BMI,&#8221;&#160;<strong>said Dr. June Almenoff, MD, Ph.D., RedHill&#8217;s Chief Scientific Officer</strong>. &#8220;Given the trends of increasing BMI and growing antibiotic resistance in the U.S.,&#160;it is&#160;critical to work towards first-line&#160;<em>H. pylori&#160;</em>eradication success in all patients irrespective of BMI. These data demonstrate that Talicia&#8217;s efficacy rates were similarly high across patient sub-groups by BMI.&#8221;</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>About Talicia</strong> <strong>(omeprazole magnesium, amoxicillin and rifabutin)</strong><br >Talicia is the only rifabutin-based therapy approved for the treatment of <em>H. pylori</em> infection and is designed to address the high resistance of <em>H. pylori</em> bacteria to commonly used clarithromycin-based therapies. The high rates of <em>H. pylori</em> resistance to clarithromycin have led to significant rates of treatment failure with clarithromycin-based therapy and are a strong public health concern, as highlighted by the FDA and the World Health Organization (WHO) in recent years. <br ><br >Talicia is a novel, fixed-dose, all-in-one oral capsule combination of two antibiotics (amoxicillin and rifabutin) and a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) (omeprazole). In November 2019, Talicia was approved by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of <em>H. pylori</em> infection in adults. In the pivotal Phase 3 study, Talicia demonstrated 84% eradication of <em>H. pylori</em> infection in the intent-to-treat (ITT) group vs. 58% in the active comparator arm (p&lt;0.0001). Minimal to zero resistance to rifabutin, a key component of Talicia, was detected in RedHill&#8217;s pivotal Phase 3 study. Further, in an analysis of data from this study, it was observed that subjects who were confirmed adherent<sup>7</sup> to their therapy had eradication rates of 90.3% in the Talicia arm vs. 64.7% in the active comparator arm<sup>8</sup>.<br ><br >Talicia is eligible for a total of eight years of U.S. market exclusivity under its Qualified Infectious Disease Product (QIDP) designation and is also covered by U.S. patents which extend patent protection until 2034 with additional patents and applications pending and granted in various territories worldwide.<br ><br ><strong>About&#160;</strong><strong><em>H. pylori</em></strong><br >H. pylori is a bacterial infection that affects approximately 35%<sup>9</sup> of the U.S. population, with an estimated two million patients treated annually<sup>10</sup>. Worldwide, more than 50% of the population has <em>H. pylori </em>infection, which is classified by the WHO as a Group 1 carcinogen. It remains the strongest known risk factor for gastric cancer<sup>11</sup> and a major risk factor for peptic ulcer disease<sup>12</sup>&#160;and gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma<sup>13</sup>. More than 27,000 Americans are diagnosed with gastric cancer annually<sup>14</sup>. Eradication of&#160;H. pylori&#160;is becoming increasingly difficult, with current therapies failing in approximately 25-40% of patients who remain&#160;H. pylori-positive due to high resistance of&#160;H. pylori&#160;to antibiotics commonly used in standard combination therapies<sup>15</sup>.</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>About RedHill Biopharma</strong><br >RedHill Biopharma Ltd.
