• 
Measurement of weight and height; 
• 
Anamnesis gathering; 
• 
Records on the concomitant therapy; 
• 
Evaluation of inclusion/non-inclusion criteria; 
• 
Evaluation of the throat pain intensity according to VAS; 
• 
Fill-in of TSS questionnaire by the Investigator; 
• 
Physical examination (including oropharynx); 
• 
Measurement of the main vital signs; 
• 
Hematology; 
• 
Biochemistry; 
• 
Urine pregnancy test; 
• 
12-lead ECG; 
•

• 
Evaluation of adverse events (including based on results of the throat and 
pharynx examination). 
After the screening tests completion, on the same day, the patients who meet all the 
inclusion criteria will be randomized into one of the two trial groups (arms): Angal or 
ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA. Therapy group will be assigned by randomization (in 1:1 
ratio). The patients will be given the relevant study drugs and the patient's diaries. 
The first use of the drug corresponding to the assigned therapy group on Day 1 after 
randomization will be considered to be the treatment initiation (for the both groups). 
The patients will be instructed on how to fill in the patient's diaries. 
 
Group A, therapy with Angal: 
1 lozenge with a not less than 2-hour interval, up to 6–10 times per day, for 4 days or 
until full recovery (whichever occurs first during 4 days of therapy). A single dose of 
Angal is 1 lozenge. The lozenges are intended for full dissolution in the oral cavity. 
One lozenge is slowly disintegrating in the mouth. 
Group B, therapy with ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA 
1 lozenge with a not less than 2-hour interval, up to 6 lozenges per day, for 5 days or 
until full recovery (whichever occurs first during 5 days of therapy). One dose of 
ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA is 1 lozenge. The lozenges are intended for full 
dissolution in the oral cavity. One lozenge is slowly disintegrating in the mouth. 
Visits during therapy with Angal or ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA 
During Days 2 and 3 of the therapy, the patients (in the both groups) do not visit the 
trial site. 
In case of worsening, including signs of the secondary bacterial infection, the patients 
must inform the Investigator who may decide on early discontinuation of the study 
drug. In this case, an unscheduled visit to the trial site is required.

Visit 2 (Day 4): 
Visit 2 is conducted on Day 4; the patient must visit the trial site in the fasted state and 
bring the filled-in diary and unused drug. 
If Group B patients (ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA) did not meet recovery criteria (total 
TSS ≤ 2) at Visit 2 (Day 4), they will require continuation of the therapy, and some 
procedures for those patients will be transferred for the next day (Visit 3, Day 5), see 
below. The patients will keep their diaries and the unused drugs. 
Visit 2 procedures for the both groups: 
• 
Collection of complaints, actualization of anamnesis; 
• 
Records on the concomitant therapy; 
• 
Physical examination (including oropharynx); 
•

Group B patients should complete the therapy on Day 5 (unless it had happened
earlier). In case of worsening or preservation of the disease signs by the last therapy
day, further treatment will be given in accordance with the current medical care
standards established in this health care facility. 
Visit 4 (Day 6/7) (follow-up): 2 days after the last scheduled visit to the trial site. This
visit means a phone contact with the patient. Aim of this contact is to gather safety
information (AEs). 
Unscheduled visits 
The unscheduled visits will be conducted when necessary, e.g., in case of the index
disease deterioration, AEs, or the study drug (Angal or ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA)
intolerability. Every unscheduled visit, irrespective of its cause, must include the
procedures listed below with completion of the relevant eCRF pages (Unscheduled
Visit): 
• 
Physical examination (including topical examination); 
• 
TSS evaluation; 
• 
Measurement of the main vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, breathing

In case of indications/conditions, any of the trial procedures may be 
additionally performed upon the decision of the Principal Investigator. 
All procedures for the scheduled visits are identical for the both arms at every trial 
stage, except for the Group B patients who, if the recovery criteria (total TSS ≤ 2) are 
not met at Visit 2 (Day 4), should continue the trial therapy and visit the trial site for 
scheduled Visit 3 Day 5). 
The main efficacy and safety 
evaluation parameters 
Primary outcome measure 
The primary outcome measure was the percentage of patients without sore throat 
after 3 days of therapy on Day 4, as evaluated by the Investigator according to the 
Tonsillopharyngitis Severity Score (TSS), in both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® 
FORMULA arms. 
Secondary outcome measures 
The secondary outcome measures in the both therapy groups were: 
• 
The frequency of ≥50% total score reduction according to the TSS 
questionnaire completed by the Investigator as compared to the baseline in 
both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA groups at Visit 2 (Day 4). 
• 
Total score reduction according to the TSS questionnaire, as well as reduction 
in the symptoms (sore throat, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, erythema, 
and fever) after a 3-day therapy, at Visit 2 (Day 4), as compared to the 
baseline total score. 
• 
A period of time required for disease symptoms relief, determined according 
to the patient's diary (subjective patient's evaluation), but no more than 5 days 
during the trial—for patients who have achieved the corresponding outcome. 
• 
A proportion (%) of patients who fully recovered by Day 4 in Group A and by 
Day 5 in Group B (the outcome of a disease according to the objective 
evaluation by the Investigator, the total score according to the TSS 
questionnaire ≤ 2).

• 
Change in the sore throat intensity by 100 mm VAS (visual analogue scale 
filled in by the patient) at the beginning, after 3 days of the therapy, and at 
the end of the therapy in both groups. 
TSS questionnaire 
TSS, a questionnaire (point scale) for healthcare professionals, is used in clinical 
practice as well as clinical trials to evaluate dynamic changes of symptoms severity of 
the infection-inflammatory process in the throat (Bereznoy VV, Riley DS, Wassmer G, 
Heger M. Efficacy of extract of Pelargonium sidoides in children with acute non-group 
A beta-hemolytic streptococcus tonsillopharyngitis: a randomized, double-blind, 
placebo-controlled trial). One of such clinical trials with TSS questionnaire was 
conducted in 2005 in Germany, CRO Applertee AG. A version of TSS ©CRO 
Applertee AG was adapted for this protocol. 
TSS (Tonsillopharyngitis Severity Score) is a questionnaire for evaluation of the 
following symptoms severity: pharyngalgia, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, 
hyperemia of pharyngeal mucosa, and body temperature increase according to a 4-
point scale: 
0 = no symptom; 
1 = insignificant symptom; 
2 = moderate symptom; 
3 = significant symptom. 
The axillary body temperature increase is rated as follows: 
0 points: <37.5 °С; 
1 point: 37.5 to <38.5 °С; 
2 points: 38.5 to <39.5 °С; 
3 points: > 39.5°С. 
TSS is filled in by the Investigator based on the patient complaints and physical 
examination data. The Investigator summarizes the points obtained for every symptom 
to obtain a total sum of TSS points. A total sum of TSS points will be used at screening

 to evaluate for a subject's eligibility and baseline evaluation; at Visit 2 (Day 4), to 
measure efficacy of the trial therapy in the both groups; to evaluate the disease 
outcomes on Visit 2 (Day 4) and/or Visit 3 (Day 5), where applicable.

Statistical 
analysis 
A statistical objective of the trial will be a prove of 
a non-inferior therapeutic efficacy and safety of the study drug Angal comparing to the 
drug ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA in the treatment of acute infectious and inflammatory 
diseases of the pharynx accompanied by a sore throat. The primary outcome 
measure:  no pain in the throat after 3 days of therapy, i.e., on Day 4. 
Justification of a non-inferiority margin and a sample size is based on the results of a 
placebo-controlled 
trial 
of 
lozenges 
with 
chlorhexidine 
and 
lidocaine 
[
 Kris De Ceulaer. A summary of a clinical trial proves that 
chlorhexidine/lidocaine lozenges are effective and safe. 11-8-2015]. 
This trial has demonstrated absence of a sore throat (a TSS subscale) 3 days after the 
therapy initiation, on Day 4, in 62.5% patients

In view of the considered nosology and absence of significant factors requiring a 
conservative approach for determination of the non-inferiority margin, for this purpose 
we can use a two-sided CI 90%. In such a case, the lower limit for the rate difference 
(a two-sided CI 95%) will amount to 14.6%. Therefore, a margin of 14.5% is 
considered to be justified. 
Based on the above, we may hypothetically expect a rate of positive response to a new

therapy (absence of a sore throat as an efficacy measure) at least 63%. A statistical 
hypothesis tested: 
H0: p1-p2 ≤ –14.5% compared to H1: p1-p2 > –14.5% 
If a null hypothesis is rejected, a conclusion will be made that efficacy of the study 
drug is not less than that of the comparator drug. 
A sample size is evaluated based on the following assumptions: 
- 
A rate of positive response to therapy (absence of a sore throat as an efficacy 
measure) in a comparator drug arm is 63%. 
- 
A rate of positive response to therapy (absence of a sore throat as an efficacy 
measure) in a study drug arm is 65% (chosen within the tested hypothesis and 
based on the sample size and expected positive response). 
- 
Power = 80% 
- 
A non-inferiority margin: 14.5 
- 
Significance level: 97.5% 
- 
Randomization in 1:1 ratio (study drug : comparator drug). 
A number of patients required at 80% power and 2.5% one-sided significance level to 
prove the hypothesis of the study drug efficacy not more than 14.5% inferior to that of 
the comparator drug (determined by absence of a sore throat after 3 days of therapy) is 
128 patients in every arm. 
Interim analysis 
An interim analysis may be conducted after receipt of efficacy data for Angal and 
ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, spray, after 3 days of therapy, on Day 4, for 100 patients 
in every arm. The interim analysis includes demographic data, data on the anamnesis 
and concomitant therapy, available data on efficacy and safety of Angal and ANTI-
ANGIN® FORMULA drugs. 
Blinding, randomization 
This trial will be open, without blinding. The patients will be included by 
randomization in 1:1 ratio using envelopes at the trial site.

2. 
Justification of trial and a drug clinical trials program 
Trial rationale 
A sore throat (pain in the throat) is one of the most common complaints addressed to the therapists and general 
practitioners. Viral or bacterial infections are the most probable causes of sore throat. Oropharyngeal mycoses cause 
sore throat more rarely. Pharyngitis is commonly associated with hyperemia of the back pharyngeal wall, 
palatopharyngeal arches, and tonsils. Approximately 70% of pharyngitis cases are caused by viruses. The most relevant 
and significant viruses are rhinoviruses, adenovirus, influenza, and parainfluenza viruses, coronaviruses, and a 
respiratory syncytial virus. Viral pharyngitis is not accompanied by pellicles but associated with other catarrhal 
symptoms, in addition to sore throat, such as sneezing and nasal stuffiness (1). In addition to the smooth diet, in 
accordance with the current clinical recommendations ("General Medical Practice" National Guidelines, 2013, and 
National Guidelines for the Otorhinolaryngology, 2008), the therapy of an acute, viral, uncomplicated pharyngitis is 
based on topical symptomatic drugs to arrest the throat pain: gargling with sage or chamomile infusion, synthetic 
antiseptics (myramistin, octenisept, chlorhexidine), fast-disintegrating tablets or pastilles containing a combination of 
antiseptic and anesthetic (Anti-Angin Formula, Hexalyse, Strepsils). In view of a high rate of acute pharyngitis (5 to 8 
times per year according to the WHO), a range of drugs arresting the main signs of the disease and accelerating the 
patient's return to his/her usual daily activities always needs to be developed (2; 3; 4). 
Angal (a combination of lidocaine and chlorhexidine), lozenges, 1 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride + 5 mg of 
chlorhexidine dihydrochloride (a composition for 1 lozenge), is planned to be registered in the Russian Federation. 
Angal is used for topical application by dissolution in the mouth to treat the signs of oral and pharyngeal inflammation 
and infections, such as uncomplicated pharyngitis and other conditions. Angal has been already registered in the 
European Union and Kazakhstan, but there is no similar drug in the Russian Federation. Current 
chlorhexidine/lidocaine combinations are registered in Russia in larger strengths and for other indications. Therefore, 
Angal may not be deemed as a generic drug. 
Due to absence of an identical drug by composition for the purposes of a registration clinical trial, a comparative 
clinical trial of Angal with a similar drug (topical anesthetic + topical antibiotic) registered in Russia will be conducted. 
Among the commercially available drugs in Russia, the most suitable drug is ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, a 
combination drug containing chlorhexidine and tetracaine. ANTI-ANGIN®

FORMULA also contains ascorbic acid, the 3rd component, but its activity is not associated with the planned efficacy 
endpoint. 
This trial design is based on the results of previous clinical III phase trial of the chlorhexidine/lidocaine combination: 
Clinical Trial for Assessment of Safety and Efficacy of a Echinacea/Sage Spray Compared to a 
Chlorhexidine/Lidocaine Spray in the Treatment of Acute Sore Throats (clinicaltrials.gov NCT00707902), as well as 
placebo-controlled trial of pastilles with chlorhexidine and lidocaine [
 Kris De Ceulaer. A summary 
of a clinical trial proves that chlorhexidine/lidocaine lozenges are effective and safe. 11-8-2015]. 
 
Drug clinical trials program 
According to a clinical development program of Angal, lozenges [menthol, strawberry, honey, lemon], 1 mg + 5 mg, 
Sandoz is planning to conduct a clinical trial in the Russian Federation: Prospective, Multicenter, Open, Randomized, 
Parallel, Clinical Trial for Comparative Assessment of Efficacy and Safety of Angal, Lozenges [Menthol], 1 mg + 5 mg 
(Sandoz d.d., Slovenia), and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, Lozenges, 0.2 mg + 2 mg + 50 mg (OOO Valeant, Russia) in 
Treatment of Patients with Uncomplicated Acute Infectious and Inflammatory Diseases of the Pharynx Accompanied by 
a Sore Throat. 
According to Federal Law On Circulation of Medicines No. 61-FZ of April 12, 2010 (as amended), a clinical trial with 
participation of Russia is required to register a drug in the Russian Federation. Therefore, the objective of this clinical 
trial is to establish at least non-inferior efficacy and safety of Angal, lozenges [menthol], the study drug, compared to 
ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, lozenges, registered in Russia, in treatment of adults with acute, uncomplicated, 
infectious and inflammatory diseases of the pharynx accompanied by a sore throat. 
Based on the results of this clinical trial of Angal, lozenges [menthol], Sandoz is planning for the state registration of 
Angal, lozenges [menthol, strawberry, honey, lemon], 1 mg + 5 mg, within the same registration dossier. The full 
composition of the lozenges for every flavor is presented in the Investigator's Brochure.

Pharmacodynamics 
Lidocaine hydrochloride is an amide local peripheral anesthetic. It has a surface analgesic effect, and does 
not prevent nerve conduction at the administration site. 
As a local anesthetic, lidocaine has the same mechanism of action as other drugs from this group; it blocks 
the generation and conduction of nerve impulses in sensory, motor, and vegetative nerves. It primarily 
affects the cell membranes where it blocks the ion channels and thereby reduces the permeability for the 
sodium ions. Due to the progressive propagation of the anesthetic effect in the nerve, the electric stimulation 
threshold is increased, impulse conduction is slowed down, and the propagation of the action potential is 
contracted. Finally, conductivity is interrupted completely. Local anesthetics generally block autonomous 
nerve fibers, small non-myelinated (sensation of pain) fibers and small myelinated (sensation of pain and 
temperature) fibers more quickly than large myelinated fibers (sensation of touch and pressure). 
On the molecular level lidocaine specifically blocks sodium ion channels in a non-active state and thus 
prevents generation of the action potential. This mechanism prevents the conduction of stimuli when 
lidocaine is used locally in the vicinity of nerves. 
The effect on peripheral nerves is especially important if lidocaine is used as a local anesthetic. The efficacy-
toxicity ratio is favorable. It very rarely causes allergic reactions. Chlorhexidine is a bisbiguanide cationic 
antiseptic. It is effective against gram-positive (e.g. Micrococcus sp., Staphylococcus sp., Streptococcus sp., 
Bacillus sp., Clostridium sp., Corynebacterium sp.) and, to a lesser extent, against gram-negative bacteria, 
especially in the vegetative form (it is not effective against spores at normal temperature). It also has an 
antimycotic effect on dermatophytes and fungi. It quickly inactivates the infectiousness of certain lipophilic 
viruses (influenza virus, herpes virus, HIV). 
The drug exerts bacteriostatic effects in low levels and bactericidal effects in high levels. 
The chlorhexidine molecule has a strong positive charge, and therefore adsorbs to the negatively charged 
areas on the cell surface. 

Page 27 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016  
 
Confidential 
The adsorption is specific and takes place in special parts of the bacterial cell wall. This damages the 
bacterial cell membrane's integrity, increasing its permeability. 
Chlorhexidine binds to the cytoplasmatic bacterial membrane. It is also adsorbed onto the negatively charged 
surfaces of the teeth, plaque, or the oral mucosa, thereby persisting in the oral cavity for a long time after the 
drug use. 
Pharmacokinetics 
Chlorhexidine 
Absorption 
In oral or topical application, absorption of chlorhexidine is insignificant. In topical application on intact 
skin, chlorhexidine is adsorbed on the outside layers of the skin, providing long-term antimicrobial effect. 
Pharmacokinetic research has shown that after rinsing the oral cavity, approximately 30% of the total used 
amount of chlorhexidine is retained, which is then slowly released into the saliva. Approximately 4% of 
chlorhexidine is swallowed by the patient. 
Distribution 
The binding of chlorhexidine to the plasma proteins after oral use is not extensive. 
Metabolism and elimination 
Chlorhexidine is not accumulated in the body. The extent of its metabolism is insignificant. 10% of the 
absorbed active substance is excreted in the urine and 90% in the feces. 
Lidocaine 
Absorption 
Lidocaine absorption varies depending on the site and the method of administration. It is rapidly absorbed 
from the gastrointestinal tract, mucous membranes and through broken skin; however, before entering the 
systemic circulation it is mostly decomposed. The absorption from mucous membranes after topical 
application depends on the circulation and the total dose. After 30 minutes, less than 17% of the dose taken is 
present in the stomach and the intestines in the unchanged form, while less than 1.5% is present in other 
tissues. 

Page 28 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016  
 
Confidential 
The anesthetic action of lidocaine after topical administration emerges after two to five minutes and lasts for 
30 to 45 minutes. The anesthetic effect is limited to the surface and does not extend to the submucosal 
structures. 
Distribution 
Lidocaine is well distributed into tissues (kidney, lung, liver, heart, adipose tissue). 
Lidocaine crosses the blood-brain barrier and placenta and is excreted in human milk. 
Metabolism and elimination 
It is metabolized during the first pass through the liver. Lidocaine undergoes dealkylation in the liver. The 
first two metabolites are pharmacologically active. These two active metabolites exert toxic effects on the 
central nervous system in some patients. 
Lidocaine is eliminated in the form of metabolites through the kidneys. Approximately 10% is eliminated 
unchanged. The biological half-life of lidocaine is 1.5 to 2 hours in adults. The biological elimination half-
life of lidocaine metabolites is 2 to 10 hours. The biological half-life is increased in congestive heart failure, 
liver diseases, and myocardial infarction. 
Pharmacological properties 
Angal, lozenges, contains 2 active substances. 
The first is chlorhexidine, a bisbiguanide antiseptic, with an antimicrobial effect on gram-positive and gram-
negative bacteria, especially in the vegetative form (it is not effective against spores at normal temperature). 
It exerts an antimycotic effect on dermatophytes and fungi. It quickly inactivates the infectiousness of certain 
lipophilic viruses (influenza virus, herpes virus, HIV). The susceptibility of individual bacterial strains 
varies. The drug exerts bacteriostatic effects in low levels and bactericidal effects in high levels. 
The second active substance of Angal, lozenges, is lidocaine, an amide local anesthetic. It exerts 
local anesthetic effect. 
Therapeutic indications 
Angal, lozenges, have a dual effect (antimicrobial and anesthetic), and are therefore used locally for: 

Page 29 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016  
 
Confidential 
− 
Treatment of infections of the oral mucosa (stomatitis, gingivitis) and the throat; 
− 
Pain relief in inflammation of the oral mucosa; 
− 
Relief of symptoms of an inflamed throat (painful swallowing, irritation). 
 
Dosage and method of administration 
Angal lozenges are intended for topical application in the oral cavity and the throat. 
One should dissolve the lozenges in the mouth slowly, one lozenge at a time; the active substances are 
released slowly and gradually with a topical effect. 
Adults: per os, 6 to 10 lozenges per day, till full dissolution in the mouth. The maximum single dose for 
adults is 5 mg of chlorhexidine dihydrochloride and 1 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride. 
The maximum daily dose is 50 mg of chlorhexidine and 10 mg of lidocaine. 
Duration of treatment 
Angal should not be used continuously for more than three to four days or too often. If during this time 
period the symptoms worsen or the patient has bacterial infection accompanied by elevated body 
temperature, this infection needs to be additionally treated. 
Patients with diabetes mellitus 
Angal, lozenges, contain sorbitol and can be used by diabetic patients. 
Contraindications 
• 
Hypersensitivity to the active substances (chlorhexidine or lidocaine), amide-type local anesthetics or 
to any of the excipients. 
• 
Children under 5 years of age. 
• 
Children with a history of muscle spasms (including fever-induced spasms), as Angal contains 
levomenthol. 
Special warnings and special precautions for use 
Bacterial infections with fever must be treated separately. In such cases, Angal pastilles can be used 
additionally for alleviating throat pain. 
Caution must be used when administering the drug to patients with congestive heart failure or hepatic failure 
and 
in 
concomitant 
use 
of 
lidocaine 
analogues 
(class 
I

as adverse effects of lidocaine may be amplified. 
Angal pastilles should be used with caution in patients with a tendency towards hypersensitivity reactions. 
For self-treatment, Angal pastilles should not be used continuously for more than three to four days or too 
often. The drug should only be used until the inflammation-related throat pain or irritation persists. 
The drug should not be used in patients with rare hereditary fructose intolerance. 
Interaction with other drugs and other forms of interaction 
Lidocaine is a known inhibitor of the CYP1A2 liver enzyme, and to a lesser extent the 2D6 and 3A4 
enzymes. However, when used as recommended, the interactions with these enzymes are clinically 
insignificant. 
The patients must not use Angal pastilles concomitantly with cholinesterase inhibitors (e.g., neostigmine, 
distigmine, pyridostigmine) and other drugs used to treat miasthenia. 
The patients must not use Angal pastilles concomitantly with other topical antiseptics. This does not apply to 
Angal spray, which contains chlorhexidine and lidocaine, just like the pastilles. Single dose of the spray may 
be replaced with a single dose of lozenges. When combining the spray and the pastilles, the patient must not 
exceed the maximum daily dose. A combined use of Angal spray and lozenges in children is contraindicated. 
Chlorhexidine is incompatible with anionic surfactants (e.g., sodium lauryl sulphate) and certain other 
substances (e.g., alginates, tragacanth) which are often present in tooth paste. Therefore, at least 30 minutes 
should elapse between using tooth paste and Angal pastilles. 
Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding 
Pregnancy 
The changes in pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics of lidocaine during pregnancy may cause toxic 
effects. There are no controlled trials to date using chlorhexidine in pregnant women. 
 
Breastfeeding

Lidocaine metabolites are excreted into the mother’s milk; however, no adverse effects in infants were 
recorded. It is not known if chlorhexidine is distributed into breast milk. 
Nevertheless, Angal should not be used in pregnant women and breast-feeding mothers, unless the benefits 
for the mother outweigh the risks for the child. 
Fertility 
No data is available on the effects of chlorhexidine and lidocaine on fertility in humans. 
 
Effects on the ability to drive or operate machines 
 
Trials of drug effects on the ability to drive and use machines have not been conducted.

General disorders and administration site conditions 
Not known: asthenia, transient taste disturbance or burning sensation on the tongue, sensation of cold or hot. 
Long-term continuous use of chlorhexidine in the oral cavity may result in a transient brown discoloration of 
the teeth. The discoloration can be removed. When the drug was limited to the throat area, there were no 
reports on discoloration of the teeth. 
Overdose 
Although the drug contains only a small fraction of toxic doses of both active ingredients and is used locally 
in the mouth, it can be inadvertently or accidentally overdosed. This can occur especially in children. 
Chlorhexidine is only absorbed in minimum amounts from the digestive tract. Lidocaine is absorbed more 
quickly, and its bioavailability is 35%. Toxic effects of lidocaine occur at plasma concentrations higher than 
6 mg/l. 
When excessive doses are used (more than 20 pastilles daily), there may be difficulty with swallowing 
(decreased control of the swallowing reflex). 
Systemic intoxication is the consequence of the effect on the central nervous system and the vascular system. 
The first effects of overdose are disorders of the central nervous system. 

Page 33 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016  
 
Confidential 
Symptoms which can occur during systemic intoxication include: disturbances of the central nervous system: 
headache, hallucinations, vertigo, drowsiness, agitation, tinnitus, paresthesia, dysarthria, hearing disorders, 
perioral numbness, metabolic acidosis, nystagmus, muscular tremor, psychoses, convulsions, respiratory 
arrest, epileptic coma, reduced consciousness; cardiovascular disorders: acute cardiovascular insufficiency, 
severe bradycardia, heart rhythm disorders (sinus arrest, tachyarrhythmias), cardiac arrest. 
In addition to the signs already mentioned, individual cases of chlorhexidine overdose are known. The 
symptoms listed below were observed: edema of the throat, necrotic injuries of the esophagus, increased 
serum aminotransferase concentrations (thirty times larger than the normal values), vomiting, stomach and 
duodenum erosion including active atrophic gastritis, euphoria, blurred vision and a total loss of taste (lasting 
for 8 hours). 
Considering the data on acute, subacute, and chronic toxicity of both active ingredients, the risk of systemic 
effects of lidocaine, when used correctly is very small and predominantly associated with major misuse of 
Prescribing Information, as the doses of both active ingredients in the pastilles are very small. 
Measures to be taken in case of systemic intoxication 
If signs of intoxication appear, the drug must be discontinued immediately. Induce vomiting and perform 
gastric lavage. Use anionic agents. In severe cases, the patient must be hospitalized to prevent the collapse of 
breathing and circulation, as well as to prevent dehydration. Diazepam is the drug of choice for alleviating 
convulsions. 
Preclinical safety data 
Published non-clinical data suggests that chlorhexidine and lidocaine are well tolerated and show low 
toxicity. 
Chlorhexidine 
Chlorhexidine is virtually not absorbed when administered topically. In the urine of laboratory animals, only 
insignificant amounts of chlorhexidine were detected. The LD50 of chlorhexidine varies between species and 
ranges from 21 mg/kg (rats, intravenous) to 5,000 mg/kg (rats, oral). Sub-chronic toxicity trials showed 
minimal skin irritation (erythema, edema, peeling and/or cracking) in the smallest tested doses. No 
reproductive or developmental toxicity was shown at all the tested levels. No mutagenic effects were 
observed in in vivo mutagenesis trials evaluating chlorhexidine gluconate. 
Long-term toxicity trials in rats showed no carcinogenic effects of chlorhexidine.

Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016  
 
Confidential 
Lidocaine 
LD50 of lidocaine varies between species and ranges from 19.5 mg/kg (mice, intravenous) to 317 mg/kg 
(rats, oral). 
Lidocaine is neurotoxic due to its direct effect on sensory neurons and its induction of increased intracellular 
calcium ion concentration. Lidocaine is less cardiotoxic than bupivacaine. The neurotoxic effects that were 
noted after intrathecal infusion were dose-dependent. 
No significant effects were observed in offspring of Sprague Dawley rats administered lidocaine. 
Mutagenicity trials using the Ames test with lidocaine and its metabolites showed no mutagenic potential. In 
trials of chronic exposure to high doses of the metabolite lidocaine 2,6-xylidine, on rats with transplacentar 
exposure and those that received it in food after birth, this highly sensitive testing system detected the 
appearance of malignant and benign neoplasms, especially in the oral cavity.

Interactions 
Chlorhexidine is incompatible with anionic detergents (saponins, sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium 
carboxymethylcellulose). Concomitant use with iodine is not recommended. Ethanol enhances the drug 
effects. 
Tetracaine reduces antibacterial activity of sulfanilamide agents. Vasoconstrictors prolong the activity and 
diminish toxicity of tetracaine. Ascorbic acid increases the blood levels of benzylpenicillin and tetracyclines. 
Ascorbic acid increases absorption of the ferric drugs in the intestine. It reduces efficacy of heparin and 
indirect anticoagulants. It increases the risk of crystalluria during therapy with the short-acting salicylates 
and sulfanilamides, reduces the plasma levels of oral contraceptives. 
Special considerations 
It is not recommended to use the drug concomitantly with iod-containing drugs for treatment of oral cavity 
and throat (Lugol's solution, povidone iodine). Ascorbic acid contained in the drug might influence some 
laboratory results which should become known during the tests. 
Diabetic patients should note that each pastille contains 1.4 g of sucrose which corresponds to 0.12 bread 
units. 
According to pharmacological properties, the product has no effect on the ability to perform the activities 
requiring increased concentration of attention and 
prompt psychomotor reactions. 
Long-term administration (more than 5 days) of the drug is undesirable due to possible damage to normal 
microbial flora of oral cavity and throat. Do not use the drug immediately prior to or during the meal. Do not 
brush your teeth after the drug use because the surface active agents contained in the toothpaste may 
inactivate chlorhexidine. 
The drug may influence the doping test results.

2.2 
Summary of preclinical and clinical results significant for this trial 
Angal, a drug proposed for the state registration, contains two components; therefore, this section presents a 
summary of preclinical and clinical aspects of efficacy and safety of those components. 
2.2.1 
Preclinical results summary 
 
2.2.1.1 
Chlorhexidine (chlorhexidine dihydrochloride) 
Chlorhexidine is a commonly used disinfectant and topical antiseptic agent. In vitro tests confirmed the value 
of chlorhexidine in the treatment of upper respiratory tract infections such as pharyngitis. It exerts 
bactericidal effects against the pathogenic bacteria in the upper respiratory tract infections. Chlorhexidine 
also shows some antiviral activity in relation to influenza A virus (H1N1). 
Chlorhexidine is virtually not absorbed when administered topically. Small amounts are detected in the urine 
of laboratory animals. LD50 varies from 21 mg/kg (rats, i.v.) to 5,000 mg/kg (rats, oral). Subchronic toxicity 
trials showed minimal dermal irritation (erythema, edema, desquamation and/or fissuring) at the lowest dose 
tested. 
Tests at all doses showed no malformations or developmental toxicity. Mutagenic effects were not observed 
in two mammalian in vivo mutagenesis trials evaluating chlorhexidine gluconate. Long-term toxicity trials in 
rats showed no carcinogenic effects of chlorhexidine (5; 6; 7; 8; 9; 10). 
2.2.1.2 
Lidocaine (lidocaine hydrochloride) 
Lidocaine hydrochloride is a peripheral local anesthetic of the amide type. Lidocaine administered i.v. is 
used as an antiarrhythmic drug. Lidocaine, like other local anesthetics, blocks conduction of nerve endings 
impulses in a reversible way by interfering with processes fundamental to generation of nerve action 
potential, namely, large transient increase in permeability of membrane to sodium ions that is produced by 
slight depolarization of membrane. 
From observations in rabbits administered lidocaine HCl i.v. and portally, a first pass hepatic elimination of 
approximately 30% could be calculated. The fraction of rectal venous drainage bypassing the portal 
circulation and thus hepatic metabolism is about 40%. In the rabbit, the hepatic first pass effect for lidocaine 
can be avoided by administering the compound via the rectum. 

Page 39 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016  
 
Confidential 
Intrinsic clearance of lidocaine was consistently reduced in the dog after repeated administration. LD50 
varies from 19.5 mg/kg (mouse, i.v.) to 317 mg/kg (rat, oral). Lidocaine showed neurotoxicity to sensory 
neurons, resulting from a direct action on sensory neurons, and that a lidocaine-induced increase in 
intracellular Ca2+ is a mechanism of lidocaine-induced neuronal toxicity. Lidocaine is less cardiotoxic than 
bupivacaine. Observed neurotoxic effects after intrathecal infusion were dose-dependent. No significant 
effects were observed in offspring of Sprague Dawley rats administered lidocaine. Lidocaine did not show 
any mutagenicity. Lidocaine effectively inhibited the invasive ability of human cancer cells at concentrations 
used in surgical operations (11; 12; 13; 14). 
For these reasons, the lozenges containing chlorhexidine hydrochloride (5 mg) / lidocaine hydrochloride 
(1 mg) are considered to be fully satisfactory for introduction to the market in terms of safety and efficacy. 
The information presented confirms the suitability of the product when used as recommended. 
2.2.2 
Clinical results summary 
The results of a randomized, double-blind,  placebo-controlled, phase III trial with a lemon-flavored lozenge 
formulation (Medica®) containing a combination of 5 mg chlorhexidine dihydrochloride with 1 mg lidocaine 
hydrochloride demonstrated higher efficacy than placebo regarding several measured parameters, which 
exhibited significant improvement from the stationary phase (sore throat at 120 min) through to the follow-
up visit at Day 4 (sore throat and erythema). This combination was thus shown to provide symptomatic relief 
of sore throat as well as reducing signs of inflammation such as erythema. The combination lozenge was 
very well tolerated. In a double blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted by Schapowal et al., the use of a 
spray containing chlorhexidine 1% and lidocaine 2% demonstrated a 60% response on Day 3 of the therapy 
associated with a very good tolerability in patients with an acute tonsillopharyngitis (15). 
 
The use of topical lidocaine forms (pastilles and spray) at much bigger strength than that of Angal was not 
associated with any toxic effects while a significant clinical effect was shown (16). 
Although the overall volume of clinical evidence in support of the proposed indication is very limited and the 
available data set has not resulted from a systematic investigation of the properties of the product, this type 
of preparations has been used widely for several decades. The use of the drug at recommended doses for the 
approved indications is safe; the drug is registered in the EU; no SAEs were reported, while AEs and

populations are well known and described in Section 2.1.1. Therefore, the repeated toxicological, 
pharmacological, or clinical trials for determination of the main features of the active substances are not 
justified, while a benefit/risk ratio is favorable to recommend conduction of a clinical trial of Angal in 
patients with acute viral pharyngitis. 
2.3 
Brief description of known and potential risks for the trial subjects (if any) 
Preclinical and clinical trials of the study drugs components showed a favorable safety profile and good 
tolerability of Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA. A list of known side effects of those drugs is 
presented in Section 2.2.1. 
Venous blood will be collected during the trial, approximately 12 ml (1 tablespoonful) on Day 0 and Day 4, 
i.e., the total amount of blood taken for analysis will not exceed 30 ml for 5 days. Those volume and rate of a 
blood loss are clinically insignificant for an adult. Venipuncture may potentially cause a bruise or hematoma, 
as well as phlebitis or thrombophlebitis at the injection site. The trial site personnel will make every possible 
effort to minimize the risks for the patients associated with the trial therapy and procedures. In case of AEs 
or other health issues, the patient will be provided with the appropriate medical care. 
The benefit from the trial is associated with the laboratory and instrumental investigations, therapy under 
supervision of a highly qualified doctors with the study drugs free of charge for the trial participants. 
2.4 
Description and rationale for the route of administration, dosages, dosing regimens, and 
duration of treatment 
The study drugs will be prescribed according to relevant Prescribing Information: a Prescribing Information 
draft for Angal and a current Prescribing Information for ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA registered in Russia. 
Angal will be used in the following way: 1 lozenge with a not less than 2-hour interval, till full dissolution in 
the mouth, up to 6–10 times per day, for 4 days or until full recovery (whichever occurs first during 4 days of 
therapy). ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA will be used in the following way: 1 lozenge with a not less than 2-
hour interval, up to 6 lozenges per day, for 5 days or until full recovery  (total TSS ≤ 2)  (whichever occurs 
first during 5 days of therapy).

4.1 
General and additional tested parameters 
4.1.1 
Efficacy parameters 
4.1.1.1. 
The main efficacy endpoint 
The primary outcome measure was the percentage of patients without sore throat after 3 days of therapy on 
Day 4, as evaluated by the Investigator according to the Tonsillopharyngitis Severity Score (TSS), in both 
Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA arms. 
4.1.1.2 
Additional efficacy endpoints 
The secondary outcome measures in the both therapy groups to compare the therapeutic efficacy of the study 
drug and comparator drug were:

the Investigator as compared to the baseline in both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA 
groups at Visit 2 (Day 4). 
• 
Total score reduction according to the TSS questionnaire, as well as a reduction in the symptoms 
(sore throat, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, erythema, and fever) after a 3-day therapy, at 
Visit 2 (Day 4), as compared to the baseline total score. 
•

4.2.3.2 
Description of the trial procedures 
4.2.3.2.1 
Collection of medical history, demographic and anthropometric data 
Medical history includes the previous diseases, concomitant chronic conditions, hereditary issues, 
social habits (smoking, alcohol or drug abuse), allergological anamnesis, previous surgeries or 
traumas, occupational history, permanent or periodic drug therapy. Regarding the present condition: 
date and time of the first signs manifestation, diagnostic and treatment procedures by the screening, 
their efficacy. A contraception method used by the patient; by signing the Informed Consent Form, 
the patient agrees to use one of the recommended contraception methods (by the protocol) during the 
trial and 1 month after the trial completion. 
Primary documents must contain data on the sex, age, race, and ethnicity of the patient. A height 
meter is used to measure the patient's height in centimeters, the weighing scales—body weight in 
kilograms. 
The anthropometric examinations will be conducted in accordance with the Health Risk Monitoring 
(EHRM) Recommendation for indicators, international collaboration, protocol and manual of 
operations for chronic disease risk factor surveys, 2002 (17). 
Height should be measured in all the patients (the causes which make the height measurement 
impossible include hair-style peculiarities (e.g., mohawk), patient's refusal to take off a headwear 
(e.g., turban), patient's incapacity to stand, exceedance of the height meter's scale). The height meter is 
a vertically positioned panel with a centimeter division with a sliding horizontal ruler. A standard 
error must not exceed 2 mm. The patient will be asked to take off his/her shoes, thick clothes, 
hairpins, or other hair accessories. The patient must touch a vertical panel with his/her hindhead, back, 
buttocks, calves, and heels (the toes are stuck together). Upper boundary of the external ear canal 
must be at the same level with lower boundary of the orbital cavity (the jugal bone). The patient will 
be asked to look forward. If the patient's height exceeds that of the Investigator, the latter should use a 
platform. A height meter's ruler is put on the patient's head, the scale's divisions are counted. The 
height must be recorded while the patient is still standing under the ruler. An error must not exceed 
0.5 cm. 
The patient's weight must be measured in the morning in the fasting condition, after urination and 
defecation, in the underwear (with further subtraction of an average underwear weight). The weighing 
scales must be horizontally positioned on a solid ground. An error must not exceed 0.2 kg. The patient 
should stand in the center of the weighing scales on the both legs. If the weight measurement is 
impossible, the Investigator should not record any values based on the patient's claims.

4.2.3.2.2 
Physical examination and vital signs evaluation 
Physical examination will be conducted according to the general rules of the propedeutics of internal 
diseases: general visual examination, inspection of the mucous membranes, including pharyngoscopy, 
lymph nodes palpation, evaluation of bones and muscles, palpation, percussion and auscultation of the 
main organ systems (cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, urinary systems) will be conducted 
sequentially. 
Vital signs (HR, BR, BP, body temperature) will be evaluated before the physical examination at rest 
(after 15 minutes of rest, not earlier than 1 hour after smoking or 2 hours after meal). Heart rate (HR) 
will be measured during the heart auscultation in parallel with a pulse rate determination on the radial 
artery (or carotid artery in case the radial artery pulse is weak) for 1 minute in a sitting position; in 
case of a pulse deficiency, the both parameters should be recorded: HR and pulse rate. Breathing rate 
(BR) will be measured for 1 minute at rest, in a sitting position, observing breathing movements of the 
thorax and abdominal wall without drawing the patient's attention. 
Blood pressure (BP) will be measured on the brachial artery, in a sitting position, by Korotkoff 
method, using a certified sphygmomanometer or tonometer with a cuff adjusted for the patient's 
shoulder in length and width according to the recommendations for measurement (RMOAG/VNOK, 
2010). The cuff's size should correspond to the arm's size: a cuff rubber part to be inflated should 
cover not less than 80% of the arm circumference; a cuff 12–13 cm in length and 30–35 cm in width 
(medium size) should be used for the adults; although, the bigger and smaller cuffs might be required 
for bigger and smaller arms, respectively. Before the measurement start, a mercury column or a  
tonometer needle must be in a zero position. To measure BP on every arm not less than 2 
measurements with a 1-minute interval are required; in case of BP difference ≥5 mm Hg, an 
additional measurement should be made; the lowest result based on the 3 measurement should be 
recorded as a final one. 
Measurement procedure: 
• 
Pump up the air into the cuff fast to the pressure level 20 mm Hg exceeding a common 
systolic BP (by the pulse disappearance). 
• 
An error must not exceed 2 mm Hg. 
• 
Reduce the pressure in the cuff at a rate of 2 mm Hg per second. 
• 
A pressure level when the 1st tone appears corresponds to a systolic BP (phase 1 of 
Korotkoff sounds). 
• 
A pressure level when the tones disappear corresponds to a diastolic BP (phase 5 of 
Korotkoff sounds); in children, adolescents, and young people after physical exertion, in 
pregnant women, as well as in some disorders in adults when phase 5 cannot be 
determined, a healthcare practitioner should try to determine phase 4 by significant tones 
weakening.

Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016 
 
Confidential 
• 
If the tones are very weak, the patient should raise his/her hand and make several 
compressions by hand, after which the measurement should be repeated without a strong 
compression on the artery by a phonendoscope membrane. 
• 
BP should be measured on both hands at initial examination only; further measurements 
must be performed at the hand with higher values. 
Body temperature must be measured by the same thermometer type (mercuric or electronic) and 
method (axillary temperature) throughout the trial. 
4.2.3.2.3 
Fill-in of TSS questionnaire 
TSS, a questionnaire (point scale) for healthcare professionals, is used in clinical practice as well as 
clinical trials to evaluate dynamic changes of symptoms severity of the infection-inflammatory 
process in the throat (Bereznoy VV, Riley DS, Wassmer G, Heger M. Efficacy of extract of 
Pelargonium sidoides in children with acute non-group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus 
tonsillopharyngitis: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial). One of such clinical trials 
with TSS questionnaire was conducted in 2005 in Germany, ©CRO Applertee AG. A version of TSS 
©CRO Applertee AG was adapted for this protocol. 
TSS (Tonsillopharyngitis Severity Score) is a questionnaire for evaluation of the following symptoms 
severity: pharyngalgia, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, hyperemia of pharyngeal mucosa, and 
body temperature increase according to a 4-point scale: 
 
0 
 = no symptom; 
1 
= insignificant symptom; 
2 
= moderate symptom; 
3 
= significant symptom. 
The axillary body temperature increase is rated as follows: 
0 points: <37.5 °С; 
1 point: 37.5 to <38.5 °С; 
2 points: 38.5 to <39.5 °С; 
3 points: >39.5 °С. 
TSS is filled in by the Investigator based on the patient complaints and physical examination data. 
The Investigator summarizes the points obtained for every symptom to obtain a total sum of TSS 
points. A total sum of TSS points will be used at screening to evaluate for a subject's eligibility and 
baseline evaluation; at Visit 2 (Day 4), to measure efficacy of the trial therapy in the both groups; to 
evaluate the disease outcomes on Visit 2 (Day 4) and/or Visit 3 (Day 5), where applicable.

4.2.3.2.4 
Evaluation of the throat pain intensity according to VAS 
The patient will fill in the VAS to evaluate for the throat pain intensity at every visit to the trial site 
(Visit 1, Visit 2, and Visit 3 (where applicable)). Calibrated scales 100 mm in length with the relevant 
measuring instruments will be provided for the clinical trial. 
The patients should evaluate their pain severity according to VAS at every visit (if possible, before 
administration of the painkillers (if those are required) or the study drug/comparator drug). The scale 
is provided in Appendix 5 to this protocol. 
4.2.3.2.5. 
Global evaluation of therapy tolerability by the patient and the physician 
Global evaluation of study drug tolerability should be made by the patient and Investigator according 
to the following scale: 
Scores 
Evaluation 
0 
Poor 
1 
Satisfactory 
2 
Good 
3 
Excellent 
Evaluation of the study drug tolerability by the patient and the physician (points/scores) should be 
specified in the eCRF at Visits 2 or 3 (where applicable). 
4.2.3.2.6 
Laboratory tests 
The blood for analysis will be collected in the morning, in the fasted state (10–12 hours after the last 
meal) from the cubital vein by a disposable sterile syringe under aseptic conditions. Approximately 
12 ml (1 tablespoonful) of blood will be collected at Visits 1 and 2 (or 3, where applicable). 
Hematology (Hb, RBC, WBC, WBC differential, ESR) and biochemistry (total protein, ALT, AST, 
total bilirubin) will be conducted at the trial site laboratory. Pregnancy urine test using 
test 
strips 
(immunochromatographic assay of beta-chorionic gonadotropin in the urine) must be performed for 
all women with the preserved childbearing potential at the screening visit. 
4.2.3.2.7 
Electrocardiography 
ECG will be performed at Visit 1 and Visit 2 or 3 (where applicable). ECG includes 
electrocardiogram tracing in 3 standard and 3 augmented leads (from the extremities), as well as 6 
chest 
leads

for myasthenia. 
6.3 
Methods to monitor the subjects' compliance with trial procedures 
At every visit after Visit 1, the subjects' compliance will be checked by counting the unused drug and 
analysis of the patient's diaries. It should be noted that the drugs doses stipulated by the protocol are 6 
to 10 (maximum) lozenges per day (Angal), 

Page 66 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016 
 
Confidential 
and to 6 lozenges per day with at least 2-hour interval (ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA). The both drugs 
should be taken when needed (a sore throat). 
In view of the nature of drug intake (when needed), the lower margin of compliance will not be 
evaluated; the number of used lozenges is compared to maximum amounts stated in the protocol for 
the study drug (up to 10 lozenges per day for Angal) or Prescribing Information for the comparator 
drug (up to 6 lozenges per day for ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA).

Efficacy evaluation 
7.1 
List of efficacy parameters 
Primary outcome measure 
The primary outcome measure was the percentage of patients without sore throat after 3 days of 
therapy on Day 4, as evaluated by the Investigator according to the Tonsillopharyngitis Severity 
Score (TSS), in both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA arms. 
Secondary outcome measures 
The secondary outcome measures in the both therapy groups were: 
• 
The frequency of ≥50% total score reduction according to the TSS questionnaire completed by 
the Investigator as compared to the baseline in both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA 
groups at Visit 2 (Day 4). 
• 
Total score reduction according to the TSS questionnaire, as well as a reduction in the 
symptoms (sore throat, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, erythema, and fever) after a 3-day 
therapy, at Visit 2 (Day 4), as compared to the baseline total score. 
• 
A period of time required for disease symptoms relief, determined according to the patient's 
diary (subjective patient's evaluation), but no more than 5 days during the trial—for patients 
who have achieved the corresponding outcome. 
• 
A proportion (%) of patients who fully recovered by Day 4 in Group A and by Day 5 in Group 
B (the outcome of a disease according to the objective evaluation by the Investigator, the total 
score according to the TSS questionnaire ≤2). 
• 
A change in the sore throat intensity by 100 mm VAS (visual analogue scale filled in by the 
patient) at the beginning, after 3 days of therapy, and at the end of treatment in both groups. 
7.2 
Methods and timing for evaluation, recording, and analysis of efficacy parameters 
The methods for efficacy criteria evaluation are described in Section 4.2.3.2. The first endpoint is 
evaluated in the morning at Visit 2 (Day 4, after 3 days of the trial therapy) before the study drugs 
intake. Other efficacy endpoints are evaluated in terms stated in Section 7.1.

the use of the drug, which may or may not have a causal relationship with its usage. Thus, adverse 
event (AE) can represent any adverse symptom (including laboratory deviation from the norm), 
complaint, or disease, for which a temporal causal relation cannot be excluded with the use of 
medicinal (study) product, regardless of the presence or absence of such a relation. 
Serious adverse event (SAE) represents any event, unfavorable from medical perspective, which with 
any dose: 
− 
Resulted in death; 
− 
Is life threatening; 
− 
Results in disability/incapacity to work; 
− 
Is a congenital anomaly or development defect; 
− 
Requires hospitalization or its extension; 
− 
Is significant from medical perspective:  a decision whether expedited reports is feasible in

patient, do not result in death or hospitalization, but pose the patient to risk or require 
intervention to prevent one of the above outcomes) shall be made on the basis of medical and 
scientific evaluation. Such cases should be usually considered serious adverse events. 
Adverse drug reaction (ADR) is any adverse event which might have causal relation to the drug in the 
opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor (see Section 8.3.3 below). 
An unexpected adverse reaction is defined as an adverse drug reaction, the nature or severity of which 
is not consistent with the Reference Safety Information (e.g. SmPC, Investigator’s Brochure). The 
term "severity" is used to describe the intensity of a specific event. This term should be distinguished 
from the term "serious". Reports which add significant information on specificity, increase in 
incidence, or severity of the known, already documented serious adverse reactions, constitute the 
unforeseen events. 
Information about side effects already known for this study drug is available in the Investigator's 
Brochure. This information will be included into Patient Information Sheet, and it should be discussed 
with the trial subjects. 
More details are given in Brief Reference Manual for filling in the Serious Adverse Event Report 
Form (to be provided by the Sponsor). 
8.3.2 
Intensity of AE 
The term "severity" is used to describe the intensity of a specific event. This term should be 
distinguished from the term "serious". During the trial, the Investigator will detect adverse events and 
classify them by intensity as follows: 
− 
Mild event: as a rule, is temporary and does not restrict normal daily activities; 
− 
Moderate event: restricts normal daily activities significantly; 
− 
Severe event: impedes normal daily activities in full. 
8.3.3 
Causality with the study drug 
The Investigator will perform evaluation of adverse events after examination of all available data. In 
addition, he/she will perform their repeated evaluation if new information appears. The study drug is 
the drug investigated during the trial, and control drug or placebo used during any phase of this trial.

Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016 
 
Confidential 
All AEs spontaneously reported by volunteers or observed by the Investigator will be evaluated in 
accordance with the following definitions: 
Suspected: temporal relation between development of clinical event and applied study drug indicates 
possible presence of causality, while other drugs, therapeutic interventions, or baseline states do not 
allow explaining development of this event with sufficient grounds. 
Non-suspected: temporary relation between development of clinical event and used study drug 
indicates for the remote presence of causality, while other drugs, therapeutic interventions, or 
baseline states can be considered with sufficient grounds as explanation for observed event. 
Evaluation of causality is of great significance, and it should be performed for each reported unique 
event and for each study drug, not being the study drug or any other concomitant drug (if appropriate). 
In case of no evaluation of causality available, the Sponsor will consider such events as associated 
with the trial therapy. 
The Investigator must inform LPPV on AEs with suspected causality to the drug which is not a study 
drug or another concomitant drug (produced by Sandoz or other manufacturers), even if those AEs are 
not serious (see Section 8.3.5 for contact information). 
8.3.4 
Documentation on adverse events 
Any AE (not serious or serious), occurring after the subject has provided informed consent specific 
for this trial before completion of the trial, must be documented on the pages intended for adverse 
events in the Individual Case Record Form (ICRF). 
The non-leading questions to the subjects should be used at each trial visit in order to detect AE. AEs 
can be also detected if the subjects report on them themselves during visits or between the visits as 
well as if they are found during examination, by the results of laboratory analyses or other tests. All 
AEs require proper treatment. Actions taken to cure AE should be documented and related to one of 
the following categories: "no action taken", "prescription of the drug (accompanying therapy)", or 
"other treatment". Besides, the actions should be documented, which were undertaken in relation to 
the study drug, and they should be referred to one of the following categories: "no changes", 
"withdrawal", "dose reduced", "dose increased", "therapy suspended", "action is unknown", and "not 
applicable". Concomitant therapy, other treatment methods, or changes of the study drug should be 
determined and documented.

The medical conditions/disorders present before the trial therapy initiation are considered to be AEs 
unless they get worsened after the inclusion in the trial. Abnormal laboratory or test results are 
considered to be AEs only if they evoke clinical signs, are clinically significant, or require therapy. 
After detection of AE, it should be followed up until its resolution or until it is recognized as 
permanent. The event outcome should be documented and referred to one of the following categories: 
"event not resolved/did not change", "health status gets worse", "event resolved/subject recovered", 
"event improved/subject recovers", "event resolved/subject recovered with complications", "lethal 
outcome", or "outcome unknown". Evaluation of AE should be performed during each visit (or more 
frequently, in case of any indications) for any changes in severity, suspected association with the 
study drug, interventions undertaken for its treatment, and outcome. 
AE in the interval between signing of informed consent and administration of the first dose 
Any AEs, which occurred in the interval after signing of informed consent specific for this trial and 
before administration of the first dose, should be documented as screening period events. Moreover, 
the results of evaluation of the association with the study drug should be documented as follows: 
"study drug was not administered yet". 
AE after the first dose of the study drug 
The Investigator should follow up all the AEs occurred since the first intake of the drug and during 
the trial, till the last visit of the subject when the event outcome is evaluated for the last time with 
further recording in eCRF. 
SAEs not resolved as at the last visit 
If SAE is not resolved as at the last visit, the Investigator should follow up the subject till SAE 
resolution or stabilization/shift to a permanent stage (for SAEs with a suspected relation to the study 
drugs) or during up to 30 days since the last visit for SAEs without suspected relation to the study 
drugs. 
The Investigator must report on the SAE follow up as per the Reports on SAEs, Section 8.8.5. below. 
SAEs registered after the last visit 
At the last visit, the Investigator should instruct each subject to report on any new SAEs (outside a 
follow-up period according to the protocol) which, in the subject's opinion, might be associated with 
the study drugs. The Investigator must inform recipients on SAR as per the Reports on SAEs, Section 
8.3.5. below.

Clinically relevant abnormal laboratory results at the last visit 
The Investigator must document the clinically significant, abnormal laboratory results revealed at the 
last visit as AEs even without any relation with the specific study drug. 
8.3.5 
Reports on SAEs 
The Investigator must immediately (not later than 24 hours since the receipt of data on SAEs) report 
any SAEs even in case the Investigator considers these SAEs not related to the study drugs. 
The Investigator must use Novartis Serious Adverse Event Report Form to report on SAE for initial or 
subsequent reporting. The form should be forwarded by fax or email to LPPV with a copy to a 
manager responsible for the trial (Sponsor/CRO) using the contact information given in a table below. 
The Investigator must forward all the updates/new information in a separate Serious Adverse Event 
Report Form as a follow-up regarding the previously reported SAE. Such information must dwell on 
recovery or continuation of SAE, diagnosis (if any), therapy details (if any), continuation or 
discontinuation of that subject from the trial. 
Repeated episodes, complications, or progression of the initial SAE should be reported as a follow-up 
for the original episode, irrespective of the event time. 
Any new SAE, which is considered as completely unrelated to previously reported one, shall be 
reported as a new and separate event. 
The Investigator should answer any questions from LPPV, CRO, or Sponsor regarding SAEs 
reporting within 24 hours. 
For more detailed information, refer to the Quick Reference Guide for Completing the SAE Form. 
The Investigator should keep the notifications on information delivery to all the recipients in a 
separate file.

Notification of the Investigators and the 6-month line listings 
If a serious adverse drug reaction (ADR) is not listed in the reference safety information (e.g., SMPC, 
Investigator's Brochure), the Sponsor may request for an urgent additional information from the 
Investigator for reporting to the health authorities. 
The Sponsor is entitled to, where applicable, forward notifications for the Investigators and the 6-
month line listings of SUSARs (not previously reported) to all the investigators associated with any 
trial of the same study drug. 
The Investigator or CRO (as envisaged in the trial agreement) must submit the notifications for 
Investigators and the 6-month line listings, if applicable, to Local Ethics Committees (LEC)/Ethics 
Councils. CRO must submit the notifications for Investigators and the 6-month line listings, if 
applicable, to the Ethics Council under the Ministry of Health of Russia. 
Reporting to health authorities

The Sponsor shall submit all the reports to relevant regulatory authorities within the specified 
timelines. 
Training of investigators 
By signing the trial protocol, the Principal Investigator confirms that he/she has passed the training 
held by CRO and got familiarized with the Sponsor's requirements and his/her responsibilities on 
reporting the AEs/SAEs and pregnancies as defined in the trial protocol. 
8.4 
Pregnancy cases 
The Investigator must immediately (not later than 24 hours since the receipt of information on 
pregnancy) inform the Sponsor/LPPV with a copy to a manager responsible for the trial 
(Sponsor/CRO) as described in Section 8.3.5 on all the pregnancy cases occurred during the trial. 
Pregnancy reports are registered since the first intake of the study drug only. 
The Investigator must exclude the pregnant subject from the trial immediately; this pregnancy should 
be monitored to determine its termination, including spontaneous or planned abortion, details on 
delivery and on presence or absence of any development defects, congenital anomalies, or 
complications in infant's mother and/or in a newborn. 
If the Investigator becomes aware of pregnancy of the sex partner of male participant of the trial, 
which was started with high probability during participation of this man in the trial (i.e., during 
exposure of the child's father organism to the drug), these pregnancy cases should be also reported 
after receipt of informed consent from (expecting) mother. 
The pregnancy cases should be registered in the Clinical Trial Pregnancy Form. Additional 
information about pregnancy should be registered in the same form. Moreover, it must include 
possible relation of any termination of pregnancy to use of the study drug. 
Any SAE noted during pregnancy should be reported using SAE Report Form as described in 
Section 8.3.4. 
For more information, see the Clinical Trial Pregnancy Quick Reference Guide; Novartis document. 
8.5 
Quality complaints 
In case of quality complaints (technical or transportation claims), the Investigator must report to the 
Sponsor thereon within 24 hours after receipt of information as described in Appendix 2. Any AE 
associated with the quality complaints shall be documented and reported as described in 
Sections 8.3.4 and 8.3.5.

Information verification 
Verification of information between a safety database of the Sponsor and a clinical database stored in 
CRO will be performed at the end of the trial according to a verification plan by comparison of the 
relevant summary tables from the both databases. 
During data processing, eCRF/information in the clinical database will be reviewed for potentially 
unreported SAEs. Any potential SAE requires an exact match in the following parameters between the 
clinical database and safety database: trial number, center number, subject number, randomization 
number, study drug, degree of severity, date of death (if applicable), and causality according to the 
Investigator's evaluation. All other parameters must be credible and consistent from medical 
perspective. A thorough verification of information must be performed for every event subject to 
reporting as well as any other events of special interest (if applicable) considered to be related to the 
study drug, including dates of the drug use, outcome, medical history, and concomitant therapy.

Statistics 
9.1 
Description of the statistical methods to be used including the terms for every planned 
interim analysis 
Statistical analysis will be performed using R Project specialized software. 
The continuous (quantitative) data will be presented as a number of observations, arithmetic mean, 
confidence interval (CI) 95% for the mean (unless stated otherwise), standard deviation (SD), median, 
interquartile range (IQR), minimum, and maximum. 
The serial, categorical, and qualitative data will be presented as absolute incidences (number of 
observations), relative incidences (%), and CI 95% (unless otherwise stated). 
The concomitant diseases and AEs will be coded using MedDRA terms. 
This section contains a brief description of the planned analysis. Full analysis will be presented in the 
statistical analysis plan. 
9.1.1 
Demographic and other baseline data (group comparability for the analysis) 
All the data obtained in the groups before the trial therapy initiation (demographic, laboratory, 
instrumental, and physical examinations data, vital signs, etc.) will be compared between the groups 
to determine the groups' comparability for analysis. 
The Fisher's exact test and chi-square will be used to compare the qualitative and serial data, while 
the t-test or the Mann–Whitney test will be used for the quantitative data (depending on the 
quantitative data distribution). 
9.1.2. Analysis of the primary efficacy endpoint 
The primary outcome measure in this trial was the proportion of patients without sore throat after 3 
days of therapy, on Day 4, as evaluated by the Investigator according to the Tonsillopharyngitis 
Severity Score (TSS), in both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA arms. 
A null hypothesis of this trial assumes that Angal, the study drug, is less effective than ANTI-
ANGIN® FORMULA, the comparator drug. An alternative hypothesis of this trial assumes that 
Angal, the study drug, is not less effective than ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, the comparator drug.

14.5% is chosen as a non-inferiority margin (see Section 9.2 for a justification) based on the results of 
a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of a similar drug. 
The group comparison will be carried out using the Fisher's exact test (one-sided test, in connection 
with the null hypothesis of non-inferiority). 
For the proportion difference, the 90% confidence interval (CI) will be calculated according to the 
procedure described in Newcombe, Robert G. "Interval Estimation for the Difference Between 
Independent Proportions: Comparison of Eleven Methods," Statistics in Medicine, 17, 873-890 
(1998). 
Thus, the non-inferiority will be confirmed if the limit of the two-sided 90% confidence interval for 
the difference in the proportions will be 14.5% or lower. 
A primary endpoint analysis will be conducted both for the ITT (main analysis) and PP populations 
(additional analysis). 
9.1.3 
Analysis of the secondary efficacy endpoints 
• 
The frequency of ≥50% total score reduction according to the TSS questionnaire 
completed by the Investigator as compared to the baseline in both Angal and ANTI-
ANGIN® FORMULA groups at Visit 2 (Day 4). 
• 
Total score reduction according to the TSS questionnaire, as well as a reduction in the 
symptoms (sore throat, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, erythema, and fever) after a 3-
day therapy, at Visit 2 (Day 4), as compared to the baseline total score. 
• 
A period of time required for disease symptoms relief, determined according to the 
patient's diary (subjective patient's evaluation), but no more than 5 days during the trial—
for patients who have achieved the corresponding outcome. 
• 
A proportion (%) of patients who fully recovered by Day 4 in Group A and by Day 5 in 
Group B (the outcome of a disease according to the objective evaluation by the 
Investigator, the total score according to the TSS questionnaire ≤2). 
• 
A change in the sore throat intensity by 100 mm VAS (visual analogue scale filled in by 
the patient) at the beginning, after 3 days of therapy, and at the end of treatment in both 
groups. 
The following statistical analysis methods are stipulated for the secondary efficacy endpoints: 
• 
The frequency of ≥50% total score reduction by the TSS questionnaire completed by the 
Investigator relative to baseline in both Angal and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA arms at 
Visit 2 (Day 4)—the response frequencies will be compared in each time point using the 
Fisher's exact test. 

Page 78 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016

• 
Total score reduction by the TSS questionnaire, as well as reduction in symptoms (sore 
throat, difficulty in swallowing, salivation, erythema and fever) after 3-day therapy, at 
Visit 2 (Day 4), relative to baseline total score—the between-arm comparison will be 
carried out using the Mann–Whitney test due to non-symmetrical nature of the scores 
distribution in the TSS scale. 
• 
A period of time required for the symptoms resolution defined by the patient's diary 
(subjective patient's evaluation), but not more than 5 days within the trial (for patients 
who achieved the relevant outcome)—the between-arm comparison will be carried out 
using t-test or the Mann–Whitney test depending on the distribution character. The 
survival will not be evaluated due to low duration of the trial. 
• 
The proportion (%) of patients who fully recovered on Day 4 in Group A and on Day 5 in 
Group B (disease outcome according to the objective evaluation by the Investigator, the 
total score by the TSS questionnaire ≤ 2)—the between-arm comparison will be carried 
out using the Fisher's exact test. 
• 
A change in the sore throat intensity by 100 mm VAS (visual analogue scale filled in by 
the patient) at the beginning, after 3 days of therapy, and at the end of treatment in both 
groups—the between-arm comparison will be carried out using the t-test. 
A secondary endpoint analysis will be conducted both for the ITT (main analysis) and PP populations 
(additional analysis). 
9.1.4 
Safety parameters analysis 
A descriptive part of the safety analysis will include an evaluation of incidences and two-sided CI 
95% for the following parameters in every trial group: 
• 
AEs: the incidence in total and for separate categories (according to MedDRA), for the 
trial and by groups; 
• 
 SAEs: the incidence in total and for separate categories (according to MedDRA), for the 
trial and by groups; 
• 
Incidence of clinically significant changes of the physical examination results by visits 
and groups; 
• 
Incidence of clinically significant changes of the laboratory results by visits and groups; 
• 
Incidence of clinically significant changes of the vital signs (body temperature, BP, pulse 
rate, HR) by visits and groups; 
• 
Incidence of clinically significant changes of the ECG parameters by visits and groups; 
• 
Global tolerance evaluation during the trial by the Investigator and patient; 

Page 79 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ

Confidential 
The Fisher's exact test will be used to compare incidences between the groups, and chi-square will be 
used to compare the global therapy tolerability by the Investigator and patient. The McNemar's test 
will be used to evaluate for the dynamic changes during the trial (before–after) for all the repeatedly 
evaluated incidences in every group. 
In addition to the incidence, all the quantitative safety parameters will be presented in a table form 
(laboratory data, vital signs, ECG) by visits and groups. The difference will be evaluated using 2-way-
ANOVA (group and visit numbers will serve as the relevant factors). The post-hoc criteria will be 
used in case of significant difference. 
Safety analysis will be performed on the safety population. 
9.2 
Planned number of subjects 
A statistical objective of the trial will be an evidence of non-inferior therapeutic efficacy and safety of 
the study drug Angal comparing to the drug ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA in the treatment of acute 
infectious and inflammatory diseases of the pharynx. Justification of a non-inferiority margin is based 
on the results of a placebo-controlled trial of pastilles with chlorhexidine and lidocaine conducted by 
 [Kris De Ceulaer. A summary of a clinical trial proves that 
chlorhexidine/lidocaine lozenges are effective and safe. 11-8-2015]. 
This trial demonstrated absence of a sore throat (a TSS subscale) 3 days after the therapy initiation, on 
Day 4, in 37.5% patients in the trial arm and 63.1% patients in the placebo arm.

Therefore, a lower limit of CI boundary may be calculated for the difference in sore throat presence

non-inferiority margin, for this purpose we can use a two-sided CI 90%. To calculate a two-sided CI 
90%, a method described by Newcombe, Robert G. was used "Interval Estimation for the Difference 
Between Independent Proportions: Comparison of Eleven Methods," Statistics in Medicine, 17, 873-
890 (1998). CI 90% will amount to 14.56–36.66%, i.e., the lower limit will correspond to one-sided 
CI 95%. Therefore, a margin of 14.5% is considered to be justified.

• 
This is a non-inferiority trial; therefore, a non-inferiority margin for the primary 
endpoint should be justified and amount to not more than 14.5%. 
• 
An expected rate of positive response to therapy (absence of a sore throat as an efficacy 
measure) in a comparator drug arm is 63%. 
• 
An expected rate of positive response to therapy (absence of a sore throat as an efficacy 
measure) in a study drug arm is 65% (chosen within the tested hypothesis and based on 
the sample size and expected positive response). 
• 
A one-sided type I error (α) = 2.5 % (0.025) 
• 
A type II error (β) = 20% (0.2), which corresponds to 80% power. 
• 
Expected discontinuation from the trial will amount to 10% during the treatment. 
 
The tested hypotheses are worded as follows: 
1. 
Null hypothesis (H0): Difference in the primary endpoint achievement incidence while

treatment 
of 
acute 
infectious 
and

inflammatory pharyngeal diseases will exceed 14.5% in favor of ANTI-ANGIN® 
FORMULA: 
 
H0:p1 – p2 ≤ –0.145 
 
2. 
Alternative hypothesis (HA): Difference in the primary endpoint achievement incidence 
while using Angal, the study drug, and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, the original drug, 
for treatment of acute infectious and inflammatory pharyngeal diseases will not exceed 
14.5% in favor of ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA 
 
HA:p1 – p2 > –0.145 
 
Where p1 and p2 is the primary endpoint achievement incidence while using Angal, the study drug, 
and ANTI-ANGIN® FORMULA, the original drug, respectively. 
To calculate a sample size in every group, one can use a formula presented by Chow S, Shao J, Wang

In view of the expected discontinuation from the trial during the therapy of 10%, not less than 280 
patients are required for randomization (140 patients in each group). 
The calculation results by the above formula were also checked using nQuery, a validated program 
(see below), and considered to be identical.

9.3 
Applicable significance level 
All statistical analyses in this trial will be conducted at 95% significance level (a threshold p value for 
confirmation of statistical significance is below 0.05), except for the primary endpoint where an one-
sided statistical criterion will be used with 97.5% significance level (a threshold p value is below 
0.025). The two-sided statistical criteria will be used for all other parameters. 
For the primary endpoint evaluation, 90% CI will be calculated for the proportions difference with 
further evaluation of its lower boundary limit. 
9.4 
Trial termination criteria 
The trial may be terminated under conditions described in Section 4.6 of this protocol. 
9.5 
Accounting for missed, unanalyzable, and questionable data 
During the monitoring visits to the trial sites, the clinical trial specialists (monitors) authorized by the 
Sponsor will analyze eCRFs for the data completeness. In the case of absence of data on CRFs and 
availability of relevant information in the primary documentation, questions for investigators and 
regulations to address inconsistencies will be formulated. At the database check, the expert in 
statistics authorized by the Sponsor and the data control and processing managers will analyze the 
trial results for questionable, missed, and unanalyzable data, which might be the basis for the 
questions for investigators. If possible, the investigators will eliminate the errors identified in CRFs 
and inform the Principal Investigator and authorized representatives of the Sponsor hereof. In case the 
identified data errors cannot be eliminated after the completion of the patients participation in the trial, 
an analysis of the resulting parameter sensitivity to questionable data will be conducted in the 
statistical analysis.

Information about the missed, questionable, and unanalyzable data will be summarized in the final 
clinical trial report. 
The main analysis for the primary endpoint will be conducted without replacement for the missed, 
questionable, or unanalyzable data. An additional analysis will be conducted with the data 
replacement (last observation carried forward); in this case, the last known TSS score will be carried 
to all subsequent control points. 
All other data will be analyzed based on actually available information only, without data 
replacement. 
9.6 
Procedures for reporting any deviations from the original statistical plan 
All deviations from an initial statistical plan must be described and justified in a protocol amendment 
and/or a final trial report (in the last case, a statistical analysis plan developed before the start of a 
final statistical analysis must contain a list of those deviations with justification for the reasons 
thereof). 
9.7 
Selection of subjects for analysis 
The following data sets will be used for analysis: 
• 
The intention-to-treat (ITT) population: all randomized subjects who have received at least one 
dose of the study drug/placebo and have completed at least one visit aimed at evaluation of the 
efficacy parameters (i.e., at least all the procedures of Visit 1). 
According to the ICH E9 requirements, the ITT population will be considered to be a population for 
statistical analysis in the equivalence trials (including non-inferiority trials). 
• 
The per protocol (PP) population: all randomized subjects who have completed participation in 
the trial in accordance with the protocol (have completed the prescribed period of treatment and 
follow-up without significant deviations from the protocol). 
• 
The safety population (safety): all randomized subjects who received at least one dose of the 
trial/reference drug and have completed at least one visit to the evaluation of the parameters of 
safety (i.e., at least all the procedures of Visit 1). As distinct from ITT population, the safety 
population will be analyzed depending on actually received treatment (not only prescribed) (in 
case of difference between the prescribed and received therapies).

to documents and all relevant information to the authorized persons for the audit or inspection. 
11.2 
Amendments to the protocol 
The investigators' signatures on a signature list of the protocol mean a written consent to perform a 
trial in accordance with this protocol. During the trial, the trial materials may be amended and 
appended. Such changes and additions are considered to be amendments. 
A protocol amendment is a written description of changes or formal clarification of the clinical trial 
protocol wordings. The amendments may be significant and insignificant. Any protocol amendment, 
before making effective, must be approved according to the established procedure and SOPs of the 
Sponsor, regulatory authorities, independent Ethics Committees (under the Ministry of Health of 
Russia and local ones), and signed by the Investigator. 
Order of the Ministry of Health of Russia On Approval of a Review Procedure of a Message on 
Necessity to Introduce Amendments to a Protocol of the Clinical Trial of the Drug No. 775 of 
August 31, 2010 contains a list of significant/insignificant amendments and a procedure of submission 
thereof for the expert evaluation. 
The protocol amendments are significant if they may influence objectives, organization, methods of 
the trial, statistical methods of data processing, and patients' safety measures during the trial. 
The protocol amendments are insignificant if they may not influence the objectives, organization, 
methods of the trial, statistical methods of data processing, and measures for patients' safety during 
the trial. 
In case of necessity to introduce changes into this protocol, the Sponsor shall submit a message on 
necessity to introduce amendments to a clinical trial protocol to the Ministry of Health of Russia. The 
Ministry of Health of Russia shall consider the submitted documents and decide on approval or 
refusal to the introduction of changes. The protocol amendments must be stored together with the 
initial protocol version. A title page of the protocol must contain a number and date of the 
amendments. 
11.3 
Protocol deviations 
Protocol deviation is intended deviation from approved protocol. 
Serious protocol deviation is a deviation, which may, according to the estimate by the Investigator or 
a 
person 
assigned 
by 
the 
Investigator, 
result 
into 

Page 88 of 104 
Protocol No. ТЕ 004 ANG LOZ 
Version 1.0 of September 28, 2016 
 
Confidential 
withdrawal of the subject from the trial or withdrawal of his/her data from clinical and/or statistical 
parts of the trial. The deviations not referred to as serious ones shall be considered minor protocol 
deviations. 
Serious protocol deviations should be reported as soon as possible to the Sponsor by the clinical 
center staff and/or CRO and Monitor (if he/she is in the center). The Sponsor can propose to reclassify 
the protocol deviation (minor into serious and vice versa) based on the estimate. In such a case, the 
classification performed by the Sponsor shall prevail and must be communication to CRO together 
with written rationale. The Sponsor must be informed of minor protocol deviations within 10 business 
days but before commencement of the next clinical period of the trial or before commencement of a 
clinical phase/statistical phase. 
 An exception is represented with minor protocol deviations, which can be included in the draft report 
on the trial: 
• 
Logistic deviations (in time from the planned blood sampling schedule; follow-up visit 
outranged from the time limits set up in the protocol due to plans/schedule of the 
participant etc.). 
• 
Administrative deviations (e.g., change of the name). 
In case of enrollment of the fewer number of subjects compared to that planned, CRO should inform 
the Sponsor who might approve of that. This should not be considered to be a protocol deviation. 
Notification and reporting of deviations from the protocol shall be submitted to the regulatory 
authorities 
and 
relevant 
Ethical 
Committees 
in 
compliance 
with 
the 
applicable 
requirements/instructions/laws. 
Procedure for documentation of protocol deviations 
The Investigator or a person assigned by the Investigator must document and explain any deviation 
from the approved protocol. Notification of the Sponsor on protocol deviation can be transferred 
verbally in exceptional cases (if immediate action/notification is required), which must be followed 
with written documenting (e.g., via email; updates on the trial period). All protocol deviations must be 
described in the final report on the trial.

Data processing and record keeping 
All the trial relevant records and documents of the trial site, including those contained in the 
Investigator's file (eCRFs, Informed Consent Forms, logbooks, subject accounting sheets, etc.), as 
well as primary medical documentation of the subjects must be stored for 15 years after the trial 
completion. The trial Sponsor must control for storage and availability of all the trial site materials 
during a life cycle of the study drug. Archival data may be stored as photocopies, as well as on the 
optical or electronic data storage devices. The Principal Investigator must inform the Sponsor 
immediately on the unintentional damage/destruction as well as change of the storage place of the 
archival data from the clinical trial. A targeted destruction of the archival data may be performed only 
upon a written permission  of the trial Sponsor. As far as the subjects perform visits to the trial sites 
and the Investigator fills in the eCRFs, the authorized monitors of the Sponsor will verify the data in 
eCRFs and primary documents. In case of accurate and proper fill in of eCRFs, the Monitor shall 
retrieve the original eCRFs and forward them to the Sponsor while the copies of eCRFs are left at the 
trial site. In case of any questions arising during the eCRFs data check on part of a data control 
manager and/or a biostatistics specialist, all the clarifications and changes will be documented by 
creating a special form (a data clarification request). Answers for those questions, filled in, signed, 
and dated by the Investigator, shall be checked by the Monitor; in case of satisfaction, the Monitor 
shall retrieve the original forms while the copies thereof are left at the trial site. The Investigator must 
provide the information in confirmation of timely enrollment of the subjects according to the protocol 
criteria. 
The trial must be conducted in accordance with the protocol and applicable Sponsor's SOPs. If the 
protocol needs to be changed, one should follow a procedure described in Section 11.2 of this 
protocol. 
The Investigator must fill in all the primary medical documents and CRFs for all the included 
subjects. 
The Investigator is responsible for the complete and accurate filling of the CRFs. All the data entered 
in CRFs must be also recorded in subject's medical records in printed form or in the form of records 
made by the Investigator or another authorized person of the trial site. 
The CRFs, in accordance with the primary documents, should contain all significant information on 
the subject's participation in the trial. Besides, CRFs should contain data on the trial completion by the 
subject. The CRF must be filled in not later than 5 days after the subject's visit to the trial site.

The CRF must be filled in in a distinct, readable handwriting by a black pen. The errors must not be 
corrected over the entry, or erased, or removed with the correction fluid. An error must be 
strikethrough, with the correct data written on top with a signature, date, and initials of the 
Investigator. All the missing data must be explained in eCRF, containing a special mark field (check 
in the box) to confirm for the data omission. If necessary, the reasons for data omission may be 
explained in eCRF on a comment page with reference to the relevant page. The eCRFs must be signed 
by the Investigator. Such signatures confirm for the data reliability. 
All information relating to the trial and data collected are strictly confidential. The Investigator may 
disclose the trial information to the parties not directly involved in the trial only upon Sponsor's 
permission. 
A final report containing statistical and clinical reports is compiled after a database lock and 
completion of statistical processing of the trial results. A final report should be signed by the Principal 
Investigator of the trial site to confirm for the results and conclusions, and sealed with the institution's 
seal.
