(a) 
The changes in the gross carrying amount of Developed technology rights, Brands, Brands and other and IPR&D primarily reflect (i) the reclassification of $6.1 billion of Brands and Brands and other to Assets held for sale during the fourth quarter of 2018 (see Note 2C), (ii) the transfer of $2.7 billion from IPR&D to Developed technology rights to reflect the approval of Xtandi in the U.S. for the treatment of men with non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, which is being developed through a collaboration with Astellas (see Note 2A), (iii) $240 million of Developed technology rights recorded in connection with the EU approval of Mylotarg (see Note 7E), as well as impairments of $2.9 billion of Developed technology rights (see Note 4).
(b) 
The decrease in Identifiable intangible assets, less accumulated amortization, is primarily due to the reclassification of $5.8 billion of intangible assets, net, ($6.3 billion total gross carrying amount) to Assets held for sale during the fourth quarter of 2018 (see Note 2C) and amortization and impairments, partially offset by additions, mainly consisting of $240 million of Developed technology rights recorded in connection with the EU approval of Mylotarg (see Note 7E).

(a) 
IH additions primarily represent measurement period adjustments related to our Medivation acquisition, and EH additions relate to our acquisition of AstraZeneca’s small molecule anti-infectives business (see Note 2A).
(b) 
Primarily reflects the impact of foreign exchange and an adjustment of our estimate of goodwill associated with the HIS net assets sold.
(c) 
Primarily reflects the impact of the reclassification of $2.0 billion to Assets held for sale during the fourth quarter of 2018 (see Note 2C), foreign exchange and the contribution of the allogeneic CAR T developmental program assets and operations to Allogene that constituted a business for accounting purposes (see Note 2B).
