CRANBURY, NJ, April 29, 2014 — Amicus Therapeutics (Nasdaq: FOLD), a biopharmaceutical company at the forefront of therapies for rare and orphan diseases, today announced positive 12- and 24-month data from its first Phase 3 study (Study 011) of the oral small molecule chaperone migalastat HCl (“migalastat”) monotherapy in Fabry patients with amenable mutations. Detailed results are available in a slide presentation that will be shared by the Amicus management team on a conference call today at 8:00 a.m. ET. Please visit http://ir.amicustherapeutics.com/events.cfm.

Study 011 was designed to measure the reduction of disease substrate (Globotriaosylceramide, or GL-3) following treatment with migalastat. The 24-month study began with a 6-month double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period, after which all patients were treated with migalastat for a 6-month open-label follow-up period and a subsequent 12-month open-label extension phase. The study also measured clinical outcomes, including renal function, as secondary endpoints.

As previously reported, patients on migalastat experienced greater reductions in GL-3 as compared to placebo during the initial 6-month period, however, this difference was not statistically significant under the original study primary endpoint (responder analysis with a 50% reduction threshold at month 6). Following a Type C Meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the second quarter of 2013, and based on feedback from the agency at that meeting, Amicus revised the Statistical Analysis Plan to pre-specify the primary analysis at month 12 as the mean change in GL-3 in patients with amenable mutations in a GLP-validated human embryonic kidney (HEK) cell-based in vitro assay (“GLP HEK amenable”).

Summary of Study 011 12- and 24-Month Data in GLP HEK Amenable Patients

·                  Subjects who switched from placebo to migalastat after month 6 demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in kidney interstitial capillary GL-3 at month 12 (p=0.013).

·                  Subjects who remained on migalastat for 12 months demonstrated a durable reduction in kidney interstitial capillary GL-3.

·                  Reduction in disease substrate was also observed in plasma lyso-Gb3, another important biomarker of disease, in subjects who switched from placebo to migalastat (p<0.0001). Subjects who remained on migalastat demonstrated a durable reduction in lyso-Gb3.

·                  Kidney function (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), iohexol mGFR) remained stable over 18-24 months

·                  Migalastat was generally safe and well-tolerated.

·                  Of 41 subjects with GLP HEK amenable mutations who completed Study 011, 35 (85%) remain in the voluntary extension study (Study 041).

John F. Crowley, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Amicus Therapeutics, Inc., stated, “Today is a great day for Amicus and the Fabry community. We are pleased to report that the 12 and 24 month results from Study 011 have met our pre-defined criteria for success in terms of substrate reduction at 12 months, as well as clinical measures of kidney function maintained out to 24 months. We believe these data provide important validation that a small-molecule chaperone can restore the function of a patient’s own enzyme in patients with amenable mutations, and that our pharmacogenomic assays can identify these patients. Together these results demonstrate the power of personalized

medicine in rare diseases and offer the prospect of a new treatment option that differs from traditional enzyme replacement therapy. Pending positive data from our second Phase 3 study we expect to meet with regulatory authorities to discuss these data and determine the fastest registration pathway for migalastat.”

Raphael Schiffmann, M.D., M.H.Sc., Director of the Institute of Metabolic Disease, Baylor Research Institute, stated, “As an investigator experienced in treating patients with migalastat for up to 8 years in clinical studies, I believe the results from Study 011 show a positive treatment effect of migalastat in Fabry patients with amenable mutations. The reductions in substrate levels in the kidney and in plasma, combined with stabilization of renal function, strongly suggest that migalastat may become an important new oral treatment option for Fabry patients.”

Migalastat monotherapy is being investigated in two Phase 3 registration studies (Study 011 and Study 012) and an open-label extension study (Study 041) in Fabry patients with amenable mutations. Top-line data are anticipated in the third quarter of 2014 from Study 012. The primary analysis in Study 012 will evaluate GFR, a clinical measure of kidney function, over 18-months of treatment with migalastat compared to enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), the current standard of care for Fabry disease.

Robert Desnick, M.D., Dean for Genetics and Genomic Medicine, Professor and Chairman Emeritus, Genetics and Genomic Sciences at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai stated, “Over 40 years of working with patients with Fabry disease, participating in the development of enzyme replacement therapy, and as an early advocate of chaperone therapy, I believe there remains an unmet medical need among these patients. Study 011 has generated an impressive data set demonstrating that patients with amenable mutations respond to migalastat as a chaperone monotherapy.”

Study 011 Substrate Reduction Data in GLP HEK Amenable Patients

Migalastat has demonstrated significant and durable reductions in GL-3 in Study 011 in patients with GLP HEK amenable mutations. Reductions in plasma Lyso-Gb3, another important disease biomarker, were also observed in patients with GLP HEK amenable mutations. GL-3 is the substrate that accumulates in patients with Fabry disease. Reduction in kidney interstitial capillary GL-3 is a surrogate biomarker that was used to support U.S. approval of ERT for Fabry disease.

Study 011 Kidney Function Data in GLP HEK Amenable Patients

Among patients with GLP HEK amenable mutations in Study 011, kidney function by various measures of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has remained stable for up to 24 months following treatment with migalastat. Decline in kidney function is a key cause of mortality in patients with Fabry disease.

About Study 011 Statistical Analyses

The primary endpoint in Study 011 analyzed the percent change in kidney interstitial capillary GL-3 inclusions from baseline to month 6 (responder analysis with a 50% reduction threshold). As previously reported, the variability and low levels of GL-3 at baseline contributed to a higher-than-anticipated placebo response at month 6. Following the unblinding of the 6-month data, and while still blinded to the 12-month data, Amicus identified the mean change in GL-3 as a more appropriate way to control for the variability in GL-3 levels in Study 011 and to measure the biological effect of migalastat.

Amicus analyzed and previously reported the mean change in GL-3 from baseline to month 6 as a post-hoc analysis, including a subgroup analysis in patients with GLP HEK amenable mutations that further supports use of the GLP HEK assay in predicting responsiveness to migalastat. Following a Type C Meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Amicus revised the Statistical Analysis Plan to pre-specify the primary analysis at month 12 as the mean change in GL-3 in patients with GLP HEK amenable mutations.

About GLP HEK Amenable Mutations

Amenable mutations are defined as having an absolute increase of 3% of wild type alpha-Gal A enzyme activity and a relative increase of 20% when exposed to migalastat in a cell-based in vitro assay. All subjects enrolled in Study 011 had amenable mutations in the clinical trial human embryonic kidney (HEK) assay available at study initiation (“clinical trial assay”). Following the completion of enrollment, a GLP HEK assay was developed with a third party to measure the criteria for amenability with more quality control and rigor. However, approximately 10% of mutations in the HEK database switched categorization between “amenable” and “non-amenable” when moving from the clinical trial assay to the GLP HEK assay. Therefore there were changes in categorization from amenable to non-amenable in 17 patients in Study 011.

Overall based on results from mutations tested in the GLP HEK assay, Amicus continues to believe that approximately 30% to 50% of the Fabry population have mutations that are amenable to migalastat.
