FibroGen China FibroGen China Commitment to Commercial Expansion in the Chinese Market We are committed to expanding access to transformative medical treatment for patients in China. Roxadustat has gained notable traction in China's healthcare landscape. Roxadustat is currently the category leader in brand share in China for the treatment of anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Healthcare providers in China have increasingly prescribed roxadustat due to its demonstrated efficacy, tolerability, and safety profile. Roxadustat’s approval by the Chinese Health Authority has played a pivotal role in its widespread adoption, offering a valuable alternative for managing anemia in patients with CKD who are on dialysis and patients who are not on dialysis. The convenience of oral administration and the reduced need for traditional injectable erythropoiesis-stimulating agents have contributed to its acceptance among both physicians and patients, marking a significant advancement in the treatment landscape for those suffering from anemia of chronic kidney disease in China. Chemotherapy-induced anemia remains a significantly under-addressed concern in China. Despite the prevalence of anemia as a common side effect of chemotherapy, there is a notable gap in the attention and treatment provided to affected individuals. This under-treatment of chemotherapy-induced anemia not only compromises the quality of life for cancer patients but also hinders the effectiveness of cancer treatments. FibroGen and our partner AstraZeneca filed a supplemental new drug application with the China Health Authority for roxadustat in patients with chemotherapy-induced anemia and expect an approval decision in mid-2024. The potential addition of the chemotherapy-induced anemia indication would create an additional catalyst to the continued sales growth of roxadustat in China.

Focused Science Meets the Spirit of Exploration Our strength in pharmaceutical development and discovery is built on a deep understanding of the biology of central mediators and internal pathways. Our founding focus on fibrosis allowed us to establish expertise in the area of collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase enzymes, recombinant collagen synthesis, and extracellular matrix-associated processes and pathologies. Our Expertise Oncology Focused Science Meets the Spirit of Exploration Oncology-Focused Accelerating Therapeutic Possibilities At the core of our focus, lies a deep understanding of the complexities that govern central mediators and internal pathways in the field of oncology. In the complex landscape of oncology, we are accelerating the development of product candidates in our pursuit of cutting-edge treatments. Guided by a commitment to expand what is therapeutically possible, our efforts are focused on breakthrough treatments for cancer and its related conditions. FG-3246 – Fully Human Antibody-Drug Conjugate for Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer FG-3246, our potential first-in-class fully human antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), demonstrates our ability to take a targeted and precision approach, aiming to address specific molecular pathways implicated in castrate-resistant prostate cancer. These therapeutic advancements underscore our multidimensional approach, combining molecular insights with strategic drug development to propel the field of oncology toward more personalized and effective treatments for individuals facing the challenges of cancer. • Anemia • Prostate Cancer Roxadustat - HIF-PH Inhibitor for Myelodysplastic Syndromes Simultaneously, our dedication to addressing cancer and cancer-related conditions is exemplified by our continued work to develop roxadustat in anemia associated with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (“MDS”). MDS are a diverse group of bone marrow disorders characterized by ineffective production of healthy blood cells and premature destruction of blood cells in the bone marrow, leading to anemia.

Pioneering Therapies that Expand What is Possible Our Company Pioneering Oncology Therapies that Expand What is Possible We accelerate the delivery of innovative treatments that operate at the cutting edge of cancer research. Our teams have identified and are developing potential first-in-class medicines for the treatment of life-threatening conditions such as metastatic pancreatic cancer, locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC), and chemotherapy-induced anemia (CIA). We are keenly focused on leveraging the body’s natural pathways to treat cancer and its related conditions. OUR ONCOLOGY CANDIDATES: Roxadustat Roxadustat, is an oral small molecule inhibitor of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase, the enzyme that regulates HIF activity. By transiently inhibiting the enzyme, roxadustat induces the body’s natural coordinated process of producing red blood cells, increasing iron absorption, mobilization, and transport. Chemotherapy-induced anemia (CIA) is one of the most common side effects of chemotherapy, it is often not recognized and is frequently undertreated. Roxadustat is in late-stage development for the treatment of CIA in China. FibroGen and our partner AstraZeneca filed a supplemental new drug application with the China Health Authority for roxadustat in patients with chemotherapy-induced anemia and expect an approval decision in mid-2024. Roxadustat is approved in China, Europe, Japan, and over 40 other countries for the treatment of anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on dialysis and patients not on dialysis. FG-3246 FG-3246 is a potential first-in-class fully human antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), in-licensed from Fortis and being developed with FibroGen for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and other tumor types. FG-3246 binds to a cell receptor target (CD46) that internalizes upon antibody binding and is present at high levels in prostate cancer and other tumor types, but that demonstrates very limited expression in most normal tissues, making it an ideal ADC target candidate. FG-3246 is comprised of an anti-CD46 antibody, YS-5, linked to the anti-mitotic agent, MMAE, which is a clinically and commercially validated ADC payload. In both preclinical and Phase I clinical studies Fortis has reported initial clinical data to support additional clinical studies. FG-3246 is currently in two Phase I studies, being conducted by Fortis and UCSF, with initial data expected in the first half of 2024. We anticipate the initiation of the Phase II trial in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer in the second half of 2024. FG-3246 is an investigational drug and not approved for marketing by any regulatory authority. Our Strategy Discover how we have built a company that will change lives. LEARN MORE

Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed non-cutaneous malignancy and is the second leading cause of death in men worldwide Prostate Cancer Understanding Prostate Cancer Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed non-cutaneous malignancy and is the second leading cause of death in men worldwide. Prostate cancer develops when malignant cells form and grow in the prostate gland. Approximately 290,000 new diagnoses of prostate cancer and nearly 35,000 deaths were estimated for the US in 2023. Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer If prostate cancer spreads beyond the prostate, it is called “metastatic.” This means it is found growing in nearby organs or tissues. Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is a form of advanced prostate cancer that shows signs of growth, like a rising PSA (prostate-specific antigen), even with low levels of testosterone. With mCRPC, the cancer stops responding to hormone treatments and can be life-threatening if it spreads to other parts of the body such as nearby lymph nodes, bones, the bladder, rectum, liver, lungs, and maybe the brain. Death from prostate cancer is typically the result of mCRPC, and historically the median survival for men with mCRPC has been less than two years. While multiple options now exist for non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients, the unfortunate reality remains that mCRPC is an incurable disease. 1.
