 ADX-2191: A Novel Approach for the Treatment of Retinitis Pigmentosa 
 

 ADX-2191 Has the Potential to be the First Approved Drug for Retinitis Pigmentosa, a Clinical Group of Rare Genetic Eye Diseases  Retinitis pigmentosa refers to a group of inherited retinal diseases characterized by cell death and loss of vision.  Retinitis pigmentosa affects more than 1 million people worldwide. Mutations leading to rhodopsin misfolding account for approximately one-third of cases.  Preclinical evidence suggests that methotrexate may be active in rhodopsin misfolding mutations by facilitating degradation of mutated rhodopsin.  U.S. FDA Orphan Drug Designation received August 2021  Preclinical electroretinographic evidence in a P23H rhodopsin mutation mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa suggests that methotrexate improves retinal function.  ADX-2191 (methotrexate injection, USP) for intravitreal administration is an investigational drug candidate. Sources: Aldeyra internal estimates; FASEB J. 2020 Aug;34(8):10146-10167. PBS = phosphate-buffered saline; MTX = methotrexate.  
 

 In the Phase 2 Retinitis Pigmentosa Clinical Trial, Retinal Sensitivity Improved from Baseline  Phase 2 clinical trial was performed in eight retinitis pigmentosa patients with rhodopsin misfolding mutations: four patients received monthly injections for three months; four patients received twice-monthly injections for three months.
