Blinded Cross-over Bioequivalence Trial of Luitpold Azacitidine Versus Vidaza® in Patients With Myelodysplastic Syndrome, Myelofibrosis, Chronic Myeloid Leukemia or Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

The purpose of this study is to assess the bioequivalence of subcutaneous Vidaza® and
subcutaneous Luitpold Azacitidine pharmacokinetics and to assess the comparative safety of
subcutaneous Vidaza® versus subcutaneous Luitpold Azacitidine.

To assess the bioequivalence of Vidaza® and Luitpold Azacitidine pharmacokinetics, in terms
of Cmax, AUC0-t and AUC0-∞, following SC administration.

To assess the comparative safety of Vidaza® versus Luitpold Azacitidine during the 2 day
study period.
