    Bayer Aktiengesellschaft: Phase III ROCKET AF Study of Rivaroxaban meets
    its primary efficacy endpoint with Comparable Safety vs. Warfarin

    Leverkusen, Germany, October 31, 2010

    Bayer today announced the preliminary results of the pivotal Phase III
    ROCKET AF study of rivaroxaban, the full details of which will be presented
    at the Late Breaker Session on November 15, 2010, [10:45 am - 10:55 am
    CST], at the Scientific Sessions of the American Heart Association (AHA) in
    Chicago, USA.

    The primary objective of the study was to establish the non-inferiority of
    20 mg rivaroxaban once-daily (or 15 mg in patients with moderate renal
    impairment at screening) compared to dose-adjusted warfarin in patients
    with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) at risk of stroke and non-CNS
    systemic embolism. The primary efficacy endpoint was a composite of
    all-cause stroke and non-CNS systemic embolism. The primary safety endpoint
    was the composite of major and non-major clinically relevant bleeding
    events.

    Rivaroxaban has met its primary efficacy endpoint versus dose-adjusted
    warfarin. The rates of the composite of major and non-major clinically
    relevant bleeding were comparable.

    ROCKET AF (Rivaroxaban Once daily oral direct Factor Xa inhibition Compared
    with vitamin K antagonism for prevention of stroke and Embolism Trial in
    Atrial Fibrillation) was an event-driven, prospective, randomized,
    double-blind Phase III study in which more than 14,000 patients have been
    enrolled from more than 1,100 centers across 45 countries worldwide. The
    study was led by the Duke Clinical Research Institute, Durham, North
    Carolina, USA, and an international academic executive committee.
