PatchPump® Technology

GRAPHIC

 


Small disposable subcutaneous or intravenous pump Accurate pre-programmed dosing and dosing period A combination of proven technologies with expanding patent protection Aseptically filled with medication at site of manufacture Simple and convenient 6 Programmable circuit board ECell Piston Primary drug container Unique Specialty Drug Product Platform

GRAPHIC

 


Principle of Operation The PatchPump® is a fully disposable infusion pump powered by an expanding battery (ECell®) The ECell discharges and expands by microprocessor control to push piston against the flexible wall As the primary container is compressed, liquid drug is delivered subcutaneously or intravenously The ECell® discharge rate is controlled discharge rate defines drug flow rate 7

Pumps not designed for PAH or treprostinil Complex programming and error prone filling Infusion system complications in 28% of patients in controlled clinical studies Subcutaneous Infusion site pain in 85% of patients We believe may be linked to the meta-cresol preservative IV pump reservoir requires drug dilution Incorrect dosing possible Non-aseptic technique can cause blood stream infection (BSI) and sepsis Not water resistant Back-up pump needed 11 Administration System Limitations of Remodulin (parenteral treprostinil)

GRAPHIC

 


Convenient and ready-to-go No patient filling; aseptically pre-filled with treprostinil 48 hour duration before disposal and replacement Simple dosing with no programming Pre-programmed at site of manufacture No dosing buttons prevents tampering or accidental bolus For SC and IV therapy No need for diluents Preservative free We believe may reduce SC infusion site pain seen with Remodulin Compact and water resistant 12 Addressing The Limitations of Existing Therapy

19 Auto Injectors - Limitations ~1 ml Volume Seconds (~5-10) Infusion duration Hand held User case Low (narrow gauge needle, fast injection, spring) Drug viscosity Some of the biologic drugs, particularly monoclonal antibodies, require large volumes to be injected. PEGylation and high concentrations can also increase viscosity. In order to inject a large drug volume, there are two options: Increasing the concentration Increase in viscosity High forces due to thinner needle requirements which resist flow due to ‘viscous drag’ Can increase injection duration to unacceptable periods Glass syringe can break Increasing the volume Increase flow rate which can be painful Increase injection duration can be uncomfortable to user (maintain injector position)

New class of drug delivery device that can be customized to subcutaneously inject doses far larger than today’s syringes or auto injectors. Does not need to be manually held in position during injection, and could contain a larger drug reservoir. Normally designed to deliver its payload promptly, unlike an infusion pump in which the duration of delivery is a key parameter in the therapy (such as a constant, low flow rate). Such a device will contain large primary container, integrated cannula system and User interface features to indicate injection phases 22 Bolus Injectors – Overview > 2ml Volume Minutes / hours Infusion duration Wearable (patch, clip, carried) User Operation High (“many tens of cP”) Drug viscosity

24 Operating Principles Pressing the activation button inserts the cannula, opens the drug path and activates the device. Soft Cannula inserted SC, insertion needle is retractable Actuator pushes piston against flexible container wall, generating positive pressure inside the primary container Drug flows from the container through the cannula LEDs and Buzzer signal for injection phases

Rapid Actuation 30 Ecell technology allows slow and medium accurate dosage range To allow fast delivery, fast actuator is required in order to provide the required speed, stroke and force Actuator requirements are driven by infusion rate, total delivered volume, primary container geometry, liquid viscosity and tubing / Cannula dimensions.
