[removed: Risks] [added: Risks] Related to Commercialization of Our Marketed Products, Product Candidates, and New Indications for Our Marketed [removed: Products][added: Products]
[removed: We] [added: We] are substantially dependent on the success of [removed: EYLEA.][added: EYLEA.]
For the years ended December 31, [removed: 2018] [added: 2019] and [removed: 2017,] [added: 2018,] EYLEA net sales in the United States represented [removed: 61%] [added: 59%] and [removed: 63%] [added: 61%] of our total revenues, respectively.
[removed: If] [added: If] we or our collaborators are unable to continue to successfully commercialize our products, our business, prospects, operating results, and financial condition will be materially [removed: harmed.][added: harmed.]
We expect that the [removed: continued] [added: degree of] commercial success of our marketed products [removed: (in particular, EYLEA, Dupixent, Praluent, Kevzara, and Libtayo)] will [added: continue to] depend on many factors, including the following (as applicable):
| • | sufficient coverage of, and reimbursement for, our marketed products by third-party [removed: payers,] [added: payors,] including Medicare and Medicaid in the United States and other government and private [removed: payers] [added: payors] in the United States and foreign jurisdictions, as well as [removed: payer] [added: U.S. and foreign payor] restrictions on eligible patient populations and the reimbursement [removed: process, both] [added: process (including drug price control measures that may be introduced] in the United States [added: by various federal] and [removed: abroad;] [added: state authorities);] |
| • | our ability and our collaborators' ability to maintain sales of our marketed products in the face of competitive products and to differentiate our marketed products from competitive products, including as applicable product candidates currently in clinical development; and, in the case of EYLEA, the [added: existing and potential new competition for EYLEA (discussed further under "*The commercial success of our products and product candidates is subject to significant competition -* Marketed Products" below) and the] willingness of retinal specialists and patients to [removed: switch from Lucentis] [added: start] or [removed: off-label use of repackaged Avastin to] [added: continue treatment with] EYLEA or to [removed: start treatment with] [added: switch from another product to] EYLEA; |
| • | the outcome of the pending patent infringement proceedings relating to [removed: EYLEA, Dupixent,] [added: Dupixent] and Praluent (described further in Note [removed: 17] [added: 16] to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report), [removed: and] [added: as well as] other risks relating to our marketed products associated with intellectual property of other parties and pending or future litigation relating [removed: thereto, as] [added: thereto (as] discussed under "Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Market Exclusivity" [removed: below;] [added: below);] |
| • | the effect of existing and new health care laws and regulations currently being considered or implemented in the United States, including [added: price] reporting and [added: other] disclosure requirements of such laws and regulations and the potential impact of such requirements on physician prescribing [removed: practices.] [added: practices and payor coverage.] |
[removed: We] [added: We] and our collaborators are subject to significant ongoing regulatory obligations and oversight with respect to the products we or our collaborators commercialize.
If we or our collaborators fail to maintain regulatory compliance for any of such products, the applicable marketing approval may be withdrawn, which would materially harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial [removed: condition.][added: condition.]
We and our collaborators are subject to significant ongoing regulatory obligations and oversight with respect to the products we or they commercialize [removed: (such as EYLEA, Dupixent, Praluent, Kevzara, and Libtayo)] for the products' currently approved indications in the United States, EU, and other countries where such products are approved.
If we or our collaborators fail to maintain regulatory compliance for such products' currently approved indications (including because the product does not meet the relevant endpoints of any required post-approval studies, or for any of the reasons discussed below under "Risks Related to Maintaining Approval of Our Marketed Products and the Development and Obtaining Approval of Our Product Candidates and New Indications for Our Marketed Products - [removed: Obtaining] [added: *Obtaining] and maintaining regulatory approval for drug products is costly, time-consuming, and highly [removed: uncertain"),] [added: uncertain*"),] the applicable marketing approval may be withdrawn, which would materially harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial condition.
See also "Risks Related to Manufacturing and Supply - [removed: Our] [added: *Our] or our collaborators' failure to meet the stringent requirements of governmental regulation in the manufacture of drug products or product candidates could result in incurring substantial remedial costs, delays in the development or approval of our product candidates or new indications for our marketed products and/or in their commercial launch if they obtain regulatory approval, and a reduction in [removed: sales"] [added: sales*"] below.
[removed: Serious] [added: Serious] complications or side effects in connection with the use of our [added: products and in clinical trials for our product candidates and new indications for our] marketed products could [removed: materially] [added: cause our regulatory approvals to be revoked or limited or lead to delay or discontinuation of development of our product candidates or new indications for our marketed products, which could severely] harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial [removed: condition.][added: condition.]
[removed: For additional information about some] [added: | • | serious complications or side effects in connection with the use] of [removed: these risks, see] [added: our marketed products, as discussed under] "Risks Related to Maintaining Approval of Our Marketed Products and the Development and Obtaining Approval of Our Product Candidates and New Indications for Our Marketed Products - [removed: Serious] [added: *Serious] complications or side effects in connection with the use of our products and in clinical trials for our product candidates and new indications for our marketed products could cause our regulatory approvals to be revoked or limited or lead to delay or discontinuation of development of our product candidates or new indications for our marketed products, which could severely harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial [removed: condition" below.][added: condition*" below; |]
[removed: Sales] [added: Sales] of our marketed products are dependent on the availability and extent of reimbursement from third-party [removed: payers,] [added: payors,] and changes to such reimbursement may materially harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial [removed: condition.][added: condition.]
Sales of our marketed products [removed: (such as EYLEA, Dupixent, Praluent, Kevzara, and Libtayo)] in the United States are dependent, in large part, on the availability and extent of reimbursement from third-party [removed: payers,] [added: payors,] including private [removed: payer] [added: payor] healthcare and insurance programs, health maintenance organizations, pharmacy benefit management companies, and government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.
Our future revenues and profitability will be adversely affected in a material manner if such third-party [removed: payers] [added: payors] do not adequately defray or reimburse the cost of our marketed products to patients.
Many third-party [removed: payers] [added: payors] cover only selected drugs, or may prefer selected drugs, making drugs that are not covered or preferred by such [removed: payers] [added: payors] more expensive for patients.
Third-party [removed: payers] [added: payors] may also require prior authorization for reimbursement, or require failure on another type of treatment before covering a particular drug, particularly with respect to higher-priced drugs.
As our currently marketed products and product candidates are biologics, bringing them to market may cost more than bringing traditional, small-molecule drugs to market due to the complexity associated with the research, development, production, [removed: supply] [added: supply,] and regulatory review of such products.
In addition, in order for private insurance and governmental [removed: payers] [added: payors] (such as Medicare and Medicaid in the United States) to reimburse the cost of our marketed products, we [removed: must,] [added: must maintain,] among other things, [removed: maintain] our FDA registration and our National Drug Code, [removed: maintain] formulary approval by pharmacy benefits managers, and [removed: maintain] recognition by insurance companies and the CMS.
Government and other third-party [removed: payers] [added: payors] (including pharmacy benefit management companies) are challenging the prices charged for healthcare products and increasingly limiting, and attempting to limit, both coverage and level of reimbursement for prescription drugs, such as by requiring outcomes-based or other pay-for-performance pricing arrangements.
They are also imposing restrictions on eligible patient populations and the reimbursement process, including by means of required prior authorizations and utilization management [removed: criteria.][added: criteria, such as step therapy (*i.e.*, requiring the use of less costly medications before more costly medications are approved for coverage).]
Further, there have been several recent U.S. Congressional inquiries and proposed federal and state legislation [added: and policies] designed to, among other things, bring more transparency to drug pricing, review the relationship between pricing and manufacturer patient programs, reduce the out-of-pocket cost of prescription drugs, and reform government program reimbursement methodologies for drugs.
[removed: At the federal level,] [added: drug price control measures that may be subsequently rolled into] the [removed: current administration's] budget proposal for fiscal year [removed: 2019 contains drug price control measures that] [added: 2021 and] could be enacted during the [removed: 2019] [added: 2021] budget process or in other future legislation, including, for example, measures to permit Medicare Part D plans to negotiate the price of certain drugs under Medicare Part B (such as [removed: EYLEA),] [added: EYLEA);] to allow some states to negotiate drug prices under [removed: Medicaid,] [added: Medicaid;] and to eliminate cost sharing for generic drugs for low-income patients.
On October 25, 2018, President Trump announced that CMS was evaluating a [removed: pilot] program that proposes to set the Medicare payment amount for Part B single-source drugs and biologics to more closely align with international drug prices (also referred to as reference [added: or international price index ("IPI") drug] pricing) and pay physicians and hospitals participating in such program a set drug add-on payment for administered drugs.
CMS also issued an advance notice of proposed rulemaking that requested public comment on the [removed: pilot] [added: proposed] program, which is [removed: proposed] [added: contemplated] to initially cover fifty percent of Medicare Part B spending on separately payable Part B drugs (such as [removed: EYLEA).][added: EYLEA), with the IPI-based price for each such drug to be phased in over a period of five years; notice of proposed rulemaking on this program is pending review by the Office of Management and Budget.]
At the state level, legislatures are becoming increasingly aggressive in passing legislation and implementing regulations designed to control pharmaceutical and biological product pricing, including price or patient reimbursement constraints, discounts, restrictions on certain product access, and [added: price and] marketing cost disclosure and transparency measures.
If our marketed products are not included within an adequate number of formularies, adequate reimbursement levels are not provided, the eligible insured patient population for our products is limited, or a key [removed: payer] [added: payor] refuses to provide reimbursement for our products in a particular jurisdiction altogether, this could have a material adverse effect on our and our collaborators' ability to commercialize the applicable product.
[removed: The] [added: The] commercial success of our products and product candidates is subject to [removed: strong competition.][added: significant competition.]
Our smaller competitors may also enhance their competitive position if they acquire or discover patentable inventions, form collaborative arrangements, or [removed: merge with large pharmaceutical companies.]
[removed: In addition, we] [added: We] are aware of several companies developing biosimilar versions of EYLEA.
[removed: Many other companies] [added: We] are [added: also aware of a number of companies] working on the development of product candidates and extended delivery devices for the potential treatment of [removed: wet AMD, DME, and RVO,] [added: one or more of EYLEA's indications,] including those that act by blocking VEGF and VEGF [removed: receptors,] [added: receptors (including therapies designed to extend the treatment interval) and/or other targets (such] as [added: Ang2), as] well as [removed: small interfering ribonucleic acids (siRNAs)] [added: siRNAs] that modulate gene expression.
[removed: In addition, ophthalmologists] [added: Ophthalmologists] are [added: also] using off-label, third-party repackaged versions of Genentech/Roche's approved VEGF antagonist, [removed: Avastin,] [added: bevacizumab,] for the treatment of [removed: wet AMD, DME,] [added: certain of EYLEA's indications,] and [removed: RVO.][added: we are aware of another company developing an ophthalmic formulation of such product.]
[removed: Finally, ZALTRAP has not been manufactured and formulated for use in intravitreal injections, and there] [added: There also] is a risk that third parties [removed: may attempt to] repackage ZALTRAP for off-label use and sale for the treatment of diseases of the eye, [removed: which would present a potential low-cost competitive threat to EYLEA] [added: even though ZALTRAP has not been manufactured and formulated] for [removed: its approved indications.][added: use in intravitreal injections.]
The market for Dupixent's current and potential future indications is [added: also] competitive.
In atopic dermatitis, [removed: Pfizer's Eucrisa, a topical ointment, competes with Dupixent and] there are several [removed: other] topical [added: ointments or] agents [added: either approved or] in development.
[removed: Orally] [added: Dupixent also faces competition from orally] administered small molecule agents [removed: may also compete with Dupixent] [added: and inhaled products] in asthma and potential future indications.
For purposes of this section, references to our products encompass products marketed by us and/or our collaborators under our collaboration agreements with them, unless otherwise stated or required by the context.

At the federal level, the current administration's prior budget proposals (including the proposal for fiscal year 2020) contained
In addition, since January 1, 2019, CMS has allowed Medicare Advantage ("MA") plans to use step therapy for Part B drugs (such as EYLEA).
In addition, in July 2019, President Trump indicated that his administration was considering an executive order to establish a "most favored nation" pricing plan.
While the scope and details of this contemplated executive action (including whether and how its mechanism may differ from that of the proposed IPI drug pricing program discussed above) are not clear, this seems to signal that the U.S. administration will continue to seek new measures to constrain drug costs and Medicare payments for drugs.
Similarly, various members of the current U.S. Congress and potential 2020 presidential candidates have indicated that lowering drug prices continues to be a legislative and political priority, and some have introduced proposals aimed at drug pricing.
merge with larger pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies.
EYLEA faces significant competition in the marketplace.
For example, EYLEA competes in one or more of its approved indications with other VEGF inhibitors, including Novartis and Genentech/Roche's Lucentis and Novartis' Beovu.
In DME and RVO, EYLEA also competes with intravitreal implants of corticosteroids.
In addition, we are aware of several companies developing biosimilar versions of EYLEA and other approved anti-VEGF treatments.
Other potentially competitive products in development include products for use in combination with EYLEA and/or other anti-VEGF treatments, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors, gene therapies, and other eye-drop formulations, devices, and oral therapies.
In addition, a number of companies are developing antibodies against IL-13, IL-13Ra1, OX40, IL-31R, and/or IL-1alpha.
Several companies are also studying JAK inhibitors for atopic dermatitis.
In asthma, competitors to Dupixent include antibodies against the IL-5 ligand or the IL-5 receptor or immunoglobulin E; and some of these antibodies, if approved in this indication, may also compete with Dupixent in CRSwNP.
Libtayo also faces significant competition.
There is also significant actual and potential future competition for other products marketed by us and/or our collaborators under our collaboration agreements with them.
For example, there are several companies that are marketing and/or developing antibodies against PCSK9 and IL-6 and/or IL-6R, which currently (or, for antibodies in development, may in the future if approved) compete with Praluent and Kevzara, respectively.
a Co-Promotion and Distribution Agreement with Bayer's Japanese affiliate, as in effect from time to time) for sales, marketing, and distribution of EYLEA in countries outside the United States.
In addition, under the terms of our Antibody Collaboration (which, as previously announced, is expected to be revised to give effect to a new arrangement for Praluent and Kevzara, as described further in Part I, Item 1.
"Business - Collaboration Agreements - *Collaborations with Sanofi*" (the "Antibody Collaboration Restructuring")) and our IO Collaboration, we and Sanofi co-commercialize Dupixent and Libtayo in the United States.
In addition, after the Antibody Collaboration Restructuring has been finalized, Sanofi is expected to obtain sole global rights to Kevzara and sole rights to Praluent outside the United States and will be solely responsible for commercialization of these products (as well as development and commercialization expenses) in the relevant jurisdictions; our rights will be limited to receiving a royalty on corresponding net product sales realized by Sanofi.
We will need to establish commercial capabilities outside the United States as a result of any exercise of our option to co-commercialize a product outside the United States.
For example, we have recently exercised our option under the Antibody Collaboration to co-commercialize Dupixent in certain jurisdictions outside the United States.
We and our collaborators must maintain regulatory compliance for the products we or they commercialize in foreign jurisdictions.
From time to time, we may hold a product's marketing approval in a jurisdiction outside the United States where we may have less experience and where our regulatory capabilities may be more limited.

For example, the FDA recently approved the 2mg EYLEA pre-filled syringe, which has launched commercially.
As described above under "*If we cannot protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets, or our patents or other means of defending*

This also holds true for establishing fill/finish capabilities in the future, for which we have taken initial steps.
product liability claims, and insufficient inventory.
As described further in Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report, we are cooperating with pending government investigations concerning certain of our business activities.
Any adverse finding, allegation, or exercise of enforcement or regulatory discretion in such investigations could harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial condition.
Recommendations by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development and the European Union Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive require companies to disclose more information to tax authorities on operations around the world, which may lead to greater audit scrutiny.
Even though we regularly assess the information provided to tax authorities in determining the appropriateness of our tax reserves, such tax authorities could take a position that is contrary to our expectations, and the result could adversely affect our provision for income tax and our current rate.
There are instances where we collect and maintain sensitive personally identifiable information, which may include health information outside of the scope of HIPAA.
Serious complications or serious, unexpected side effects in connection with the use of our marketed products (such as EYLEA, Dupixent, Praluent, Kevzara, and Libtayo) could materially harm our business, prospects, operating results, and financial condition.
In addition, in August 2018, CMS issued new guidance that recognizes that Medicare Advantage (MA) plans may use step therapy (i.e., requiring the use of less costly medications before more costly medications are approved for coverage) for Part B drugs (such as EYLEA), beginning January 1, 2019, as part of a patient-centered care coordination program.
CMS will also consider rulemaking related to step therapy that might be appropriate for 2020 and future years.
Congress and the U.S. administration have each indicated that they will continue to seek new legislative and/or administrative measures to control drug costs.
EYLEA.
The market for eye disease products is very competitive.
For example, Novartis and Genentech/Roche are collaborating on the commercialization and further development of a VEGF antibody fragment, Lucentis, for the treatment of various eye indications.
Lucentis is approved in one or more jurisdictions for the treatment of wet AMD, macular edema following RVO (including CRVO and BRVO), DME, diabetic retinopathy, and mCNV.
For example, Momenta Pharmaceuticals (in partnership with Mylan) is developing M710 (currently in a pivotal trial in patients with DME).
Competitors are also exploring the development of a biosimilar version of Lucentis; in particular, Formycon (in collaboration with Bioeq) is developing FYB201 (a Phase 3 trial in patients with wet AMD has been completed), Samsung Bioepis is developing SB11 (currently in a Phase 3 trial in patients with wet AMD), and Pfenex is developing PF582 (a Phase 1b/2a trial in patients with wet AMD has been completed).
Other competitive or potentially competitive products include Allergan's Ozurdex (approved by the FDA for the treatment of macular edema following RVO and for the treatment of DME) and Alimera Sciences' Iluvien (approved by the FDA for the treatment of DME in patients who have been previously treated with a course of corticosteroids and did not have a clinically significant rise in intraocular pressure), both of which are intravitreal implants of corticosteroids.
Novartis is developing RTH258 (brolucizumab), a humanized monoclonal single-chain FV (scFv) antibody fragment targeting VEGF-A for wet AMD and DME.
Novartis announced in June 2017 that two Phase 3 studies of RTH258 met their primary endpoint of non-inferiority to EYLEA and has indicated that it is targeting approval by global regulatory authorities in 2019.
Allergan is developing abicipar pegol for wet AMD and related conditions and announced in July 2018 that two Phase 3 studies of abicipar pegol met their primary endpoint of non-inferiority to Lucentis.
Chengdu Kanghong Pharmaceutical Industry Group is conducting non-inferiority Phase 3 trials in the United States and Europe comparing conbercept, an anti-VEGF fusion protein, against EYLEA in wet AMD.
Conbercept is approved in the wet AMD and myopic choroidal neovascularization indications in China.
Genentech/Roche is developing a port delivery system implant for ranibizumab (currently in a Phase 3 study in patients with wet AMD).
Kodiak Sciences is developing KSI-301, an anti-VEGF biologic therapy that is conjugated to a phosphorylcholine-based biopolymer to extend its half-life, for wet AMD, DME, and RVO.
A Phase 1 study of KSI-301 in patients with DME met its primary safety and tolerability endpoint, and Kodiak has initiated a Phase 1b open label study in patients with wet AMD, DME, and RVO.
In addition, companies are developing products (or combinations of products) to treat wet AMD that act by blocking VEGF and VEGF receptors, as well as other targets (for example, Ang2).
Genentech/Roche is developing a bi-specific antibody, faricimab (RG7716), that targets both VEGF and Ang2 for wet AMD and DME (currently in Phase 3 non-inferiority studies comparing RG7716 against EYLEA in DME).
Products that are being developed for use in combination with EYLEA and/or Lucentis may also pose a competitive threat.
Opthea is developing OPT-302, a VEGFR-3 large molecule trap in combination with Lucentis in a Phase 2 trial for wet AMD.
Santen (in partnership with TRACON ) is developing DE-122, an anti-endoglin antibody in combination with Lucentis in a Phase 2 trial for wet AMD.
Small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors that have activity against VEGF may also compete against EYLEA, if approved for wet AMD and/or related conditions.
Graybug is developing GB-102, an intravitreally administered depot formulation of the small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor, sunitinib, in a Phase 1/2 trial for wet AMD.
PanOptica is developing PAN-90806, a topically administered tyrosine kinase inhibitor currently in a Phase 1/2 trial for wet AMD.
Competitors are also developing other eye-drop formulations, devices, oral therapies, and gene/cell therapies (such as REGENXBIO's RGX-314) for various indications that, if approved, would compete with EYLEA in one or more of its currently approved indications.
The relatively low cost of therapy with repackaged Avastin presents a significant competitive challenge for EYLEA in these indications.
Avastin is also being evaluated in eye diseases in clinical trials in certain countries.
Amgen (in collaboration with Allergan) has obtained regulatory approval of a biosimilar version of Avastin in the United States and the EU, and other competitors are also developing a biosimilar version of Avastin.
Off-label use of any such biosimilar in one or more of the eye indications for which EYLEA is approved may put further pressure on the commercialization of EYLEA.
Dupixent.
In addition, a number of companies are developing antibodies against IL-13 for the treatment of atopic dermatitis, including LEO Pharma (in collaboration with AstraZeneca) with tralokinumab (currently in several Phase 3 trials) and Dermira (in collaboration with Genentech/Roche) with lebrikizumab (currently in a Phase 2b trial).
Antibodies targeting OX40 are also in development for atopic dermatitis, with Glenmark Pharmaceuticals and Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co. conducting Phase 2 trials of their respective programs (GBR-830 and KHK4083).
Galderma has completed a Phase 2b trial of nemolizumab, an antibody against IL-31R.
XBiotech has completed a Phase 2 trial of bermekimab, an anti-IL-1alpha antibody.
Novartis, in partnership with MorphoSys, has a Phase 2 trial in atopic dermatitis underway for MOR-106, an anti-IL-17C antibody.
Kiniksa Pharmaceuticals has completed Phase 1 trials in atopic dermatitis for KPL-716, an antibody against the oncostatin M receptor beta.
Orally administered small molecules are also being developed for atopic dermatitis, and, if approved, may compete with Dupixent in atopic dermatitis and other potential future indications.

Our discovery platforms are designed to identify specific proteins of therapeutic interest for a particular disease or cell type and validate these targets through high-throughput production of genetically modified mice using our VelociGene® technology to understand the role of these proteins in normal physiology, as well as in models of disease.
Our human antibody technology (VelocImmune) and cell line expression technologies (VelociMab®) may then be utilized to discover and produce new product candidates directed against the disease target.
Our antibody product candidates currently in clinical trials were developed using VelocImmune.

"Business" for a summary of key events in 2018 and 2019 to date, and plans for the remainder of 2019, related to our clinical programs.
Developing and commercializing new medicines entails significant risk and expense.
Before significant revenues from the commercialization of our antibody candidates or new indications for our marketed products can be realized, we (or our collaborators) must overcome a number of hurdles which include successfully completing research and development and obtaining regulatory approval from the FDA and regulatory authorities in other countries.
In addition, the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries are rapidly evolving and highly competitive, and new developments may render our products and technologies uncompetitive or obsolete.
We earn collaboration revenue in connection with collaboration agreements to utilize our technology platforms and develop and/or commercialize product candidates.
to actual profits or losses in the subsequent fiscal quarter, and our share of the profit or loss is adjusted on a prospective basis accordingly, as necessary.
Clinical Trial Expenses
Clinical trial costs are a significant component of research and development expenses and include costs associated with third-party contractors.
We outsource a substantial portion of our clinical trial activities, utilizing external entities such as CROs, independent clinical investigators, and other third-party service providers to assist us with the execution of our clinical studies.
For each clinical trial that we conduct, certain clinical trial costs are expensed immediately, while others are expensed over time based on the expected total number of patients in the trial, the rate at which patients enter the trial, and/or the period over which clinical investigators or CROs are expected to provide services.
Clinical activities which relate principally to clinical sites and other administrative functions to manage our clinical trials are performed primarily by CROs.
CROs typically perform most of the start-up activities for our trials, including document preparation, site identification, screening and preparation, pre-study visits, training, and program management.
On a budgeted basis, these start-up costs are typically 10% to 20% of the total contract value.
On an actual basis, this percentage range can be significantly wider, as many of our contracts with CROs are either expanded or reduced in scope compared to the original budget, while start-up costs for the particular trial may not change materially.
These start-up costs usually occur within a few months after the contract has been executed and are event-driven in nature.
The remaining activities and related costs, such as patient monitoring and administration, generally occur ratably throughout the life of the individual contract or study.
In the event of early termination of a clinical trial, we accrue and recognize expenses in an amount based on our estimate of the remaining noncancelable obligations associated with the winding down of the clinical trial and/or penalties.
For clinical study sites, where payments are made periodically on a per-patient basis to the institutions performing the clinical study, we accrue expenses on an estimated cost-per-patient basis, based on subject enrollment and activity in each quarter.
The amount of clinical study expense recognized in a quarter may vary from period to period based on the duration and progress of the study, the activities to be performed by the sites each quarter, the required level of patient enrollment, the rate at which patients actually enroll in and drop-out of the clinical study, and the number of sites involved in the study.
Clinical trials that bear the greatest risk of change in estimates are typically those that have a significant number of sites, require a large number of patients, have complex patient screening requirements, and span multiple years.
During the course of a trial, we adjust our rate of clinical expense recognition if actual results differ from our estimates.
Our estimates and assumptions for clinical expense recognition could differ significantly from our actual results, which could cause material increases or decreases in research and development expenses in future periods when the actual results become known.
| Balance as of December 31, 2015 | $ | 6.4 | | | $ | 48.4 | | | $ | 0.5 | | | $ | 55.3 | |
| Provisions | 93.4 | | | | 154.4 | | | | 30.4 | | | | 278.2 | | |
| Credits/payments | (87.1 | | ) | | (173.3 | | ) | | (27.3 | | ) | | (287.7 | | ) |
| Other | | 103.5 | | | | 119.1 | | | | 28.4 | | |
| Other | | 231.4 | | | | 76.5 | | | | 80.0 | | |
Antibodies
In addition, the lower reimbursement of antibody research and development costs during 2018 compared to 2017 was primarily related to the timing of recognition of revenue related to clinical manufacturing for Dupixent and a lower proportion of development reimbursements for Dupixent that Sanofi is required to fund under our License and Collaboration Agreement (for example, following receipt of positive Phase 3 results or U.S. regulatory approval).
The lower reimbursement of antibody research and development costs under our License and Collaboration Agreement in 2017, compared to 2016, was also primarily due to a lower proportion of development reimbursements for Dupixent as described above.
In 2017, the FDA and the European Commission approved Dupixent for the treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis.
In October 2018, the FDA also approved Dupixent as an add-on maintenance therapy in patients with moderate-to-severe asthma aged 12 years and older.
In 2017, the FDA and the European Commission approved Kevzara for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in adult patients.
These increases in collaboration revenue were partly offset by an increase in the collaborations' Dupixent commercialization expenses for atopic dermatitis and the launch in asthma.
In 2017, Sanofi collaboration revenues in connection with commercialization of antibodies were positively impacted, compared to 2016, by higher sales of collaboration antibody products, higher reimbursements of Dupixent commercialization-related expenses, and a decrease in the collaborations' Praluent commercialization expenses, which were partially offset by an increase in the collaborations' Kevzara commercialization expenses.
Other Sanofi antibody revenue in the table above primarily includes reimbursement of commercial supplies which were manufactured by the Company, and, in 2017, an acceleration of the recognition of deferred revenue from an $85.0 million up-front payment and other payments in connection with Sanofi's decision to end our Antibody Discovery Agreement.

Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.
The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
*Recognition of Collaboration Revenue related to Research and Development Performance Obligations*
As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, revenues related to collaboration arrangements where the Company satisfies performance obligations during the development phase over time are typically recognized using an input method on the basis of research and development costs incurred relative to the total expected costs which determines the extent of progress in each period towards completion of the performance obligation.
Collaboration revenue for non-refundable up-front payments, development milestones, and payments for development activities, for which management used an input method, was $497.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Management has disclosed that there is variability in the scope of activities and length of time necessary to develop a drug product, potential delays in development programs, changes to development plans and budgets as programs progress, and uncertainty in the ultimate requirements to obtain governmental approval for commercialization related to these estimates.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to recognition of collaboration revenue related to research and development performance obligations is a critical audit matter are there was significant judgment by management when developing the total expected research and development costs to complete the performance obligation.
This in turn led to significant audit effort in performing procedures and evaluating evidence to assess the reasonableness of the estimates of the costs to complete.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.
These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the revenue recognition process, including controls over the determination of total expected research and development costs to complete the performance obligation.
These procedures also included, among others, evaluating and testing management’s process for determining the total expected research and development costs at completion for a sample of contracts, which included evaluating the reasonableness of actual costs incurred and estimated costs to complete.
Evaluating the reasonableness of estimated costs to complete involved assessing management’s ability to reasonably estimate costs to complete the performance obligation by (i) obtaining supporting evidence for expected development activities; (ii) evaluating the identification of circumstances that may warrant a modification to estimated costs to complete; and (iii) agreeing estimates of total budgeted costs to contracts or other agreements with collaboration partners.

The Company is a party to collaboration agreements to develop and commercialize, as applicable, certain products and product candidates (see Note 3).
The new standard did not have an impact on the recognition of revenue from product sales (see Note 2).
However, the new standard has resulted in certain changes to the timing of revenue recognition related to our collaboration agreements (see Note 3).
As a result of adopting ASC 606, non-refundable upfront payments, which were previously recognized ratably over the performance period, and substantive development milestones, which were previously recognized in the period when the milestone was achieved, will be recognized over the remaining performance period based on the Company's progress towards satisfying its identified performance obligation.
The following tables summarize the impacts of adopting ASC 606 on the Company's consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared with the guidance that was in effect before the change.
