Summary of Highlights

On June 2018 BioLineRx announced the presentation of new overall survival data from Phase 2a study for BL-8040 in r/r AML patients

New data presented at the 23^rd Annual Congress of the European Hematology Association (EHA), held in Stockholm, Sweden, shows that BL-8040, combined with high dose Cytarabine (HiDAC), significantly enhanced overall survival in difficult-to-treat relapsed or refractory AML (r/r AML) patients in a Phase 2a clinical trial.

BioLineRx released its quarterly report on May 22, 2018 detailing the following:

BioLineRx's quarterly progress is in line with our clinical development expectations for its Oncology programs, as per our Annual 2017 report dated 23 March, 2017.

• Partial results from Phase 2a COMBAT study, investigating the combination of BL-8040 and Merck's PD-1 inhibitor, Keytruda® (pembrolizumab) in pancreatic cancer were encouraging and top-line results are expected in H2 2018.
• Positive results from Phase 2 study for BL-8040 as novel stem cell mobilization treatment for allogeneic bone-marrow transplantation
• Grant of European patent covering use of BL-8040 with Cytarabine for treating AML; valid through March 2034 with up to five years' patent term extension
• Initiation of Phase 3 study for BL-8040 as novel stem cell mobilization treatment, see below for details.
• A Phase 2b study as an AML consolidation treatment is ongoing with possible interim analysis on this study predicted for second half of 2018 and with top-line results expected in 2020.
• In addition, the company has a collaboration agreement with Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, to investigate the combination of BL-8040 and Genentech's atezolizumab in several Phase 1b/2 studies for multiple solid tumor indications and AML. Genentech commenced a Phase 1b/2 study for the treatment of pancreatic cancer in July 2017, Phase 1b/2 study in gastric cancer in October 2017. An additional Phase 1b/2 study in lung cancer will be initiated in 2018. In September 2017, BioLineRx initiated as well a Phase 1b/2 study under this collaboration in acute myeloid leukemia.

• AGI-134 near-clinical therapeutic candidate's advancements:
• Presentation at ASCO-SITC positive pre-clinical data showing direct regression of established primary tumors in mice after injection with AGI-134
• Notice of Allowance issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for a patent application claiming the use of AGI-134 for the treatment of solid cancer tumors (when issued, will be valid until May 2035) with a possibility of up to five years patent term extension)
• Planned initiation of Phase 1/2a immuno-oncology study for AGI-134 in several solid tumor indications is expected in mid-2018

We update BioLineRx's equity value to $156.1M / NIS 557M, which remains within a target price ranging between NIS 5.01 and NIS 5.30; a mean of NIS 5.15. This corresponds to a mean value of $1.44 per ADS (representing one ordinary share).

• BioLineRx has a strong balance with adequate cash ($44.2M as of 31 March, 2018) to further support its clinical and regulatory strategy until early H1-2020 without additional capital raising.
• Pending achievements, several major clinical milestones forecasted for 2018 may increase the commercial market value of the company's stock.
