The ZTlido Solution to the Unmet Need with Gabapentinoids


Slide 12

The ZTlido New Campaign as the ideal add-on to Gabapentinoids Confidential, not for distribution Designed to allow the brand to achieve its true potential by repositioning from Adhesion to Efficacy) ZTlido is uniquely capable of optimizing gabapentinoids – doubling efficacy without the baggage/side effects of other analgesic options (opioids, TCAs, SNRIs, NSAIDs, Acetaminophen). This combination efficacy data is “new’ as HCPs are unaware of it – we can own the data as we believe we are the only lidocaine patch being actively promoted. Aligns with managed care thinking (step edit ZTlido through gabapentinoids) Takes us into a 10X bigger market (gabapentinoids) than the lidocaine patch market

Gout Unmet Needs Gloperba HCP Market Research Source: Rheumatologists and PCPs interviewed by Percipient, November – February 2023 n=39 “A drug that doesn’t have any GI adverse events would be good. It should have no side effects. It can’t cause toxicity either, considering [tablet] colchicine is already effective.” - Rheumatologist Physicians are generally satisfied with the currently available prophylactic gout treatments, particularly colchicine. However, physicians acknowledged that colchicine’s ability to cause adverse GI events along with the caution that must be taken when prescribing it to patients with comorbidities warrant new drugs with significantly improved safety profiles. “Patients don’t always adhere to colchicine. We need drugs that patients will take without the GI side effects. Otherwise, it’s a very effective drug.” - Rheumatologist “There is an unmet need for drugs that can be used in patients who can’t tolerate the GI side effects.” - PCP Confidential, not for distribution

SP-102 (SEMDEXA) Treatment of Chronic Low Back Pain/ Sciatica


Slide 27

CURRENT PROBLEM Prescription opioid abuse is at epidemic proportions in the U.S1 Additionally, the CDC states that opioids do not provide clinically meaningful pain relief in patients with low back and chronic pain2 MULTI-MODAL PAIN MANAGEMENT Multiple medical organizations recommend multi-modal analgesia for chronic pain management, including the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), American Society of Regional Anesthesia (ASRA) & the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons. POTENTIAL FOR SP-102 SEMDEXA (SP-102) clinical program is intended to demonstrate its utility as a key adjunct treatment for low back pain/lumbar radiculopathy and potential as a new pain management standard Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Increases in Drug and Opioid Overdose Deaths 2000-20014. MMWR 2015; 64; 1-5. Efficacy, Tolerability and Dose Effects of Opioid Analgesics for Low Back Pain.

Focus on Non-narcotic Pain Management Driving Growth “Consultants, ASA members, and ASRA members strongly agree that epidural steroid injections with or without local anesthetics should be used for radicular pain or radiculopathy.” - American Society of Anesthesiology Practice Guidelines for Chronic Pain Management3

Slide 29

SP-102 (SEMDEXA) is a preservative free, surfactant free and particulate free viscous gel formulation of well known corticosteroid for sciatica (subacute lumbosacral radicular pain). Extended local effect provides durable pain relief and significant improvement in functioning from a single injection with rapid onset. Improvement against placebo over 4 weeks and continued effect over 12 weeks with reduced use of rescue therapy. Good safety profile for single and repeat injections. Common epidural delivery by minimally invasive procedure conducted in outpatient pain clinics. Stable at refrigerated temperature in a prefilled syringe. On-Track as First Epidural Steroid Injection with a Label to Treat Sciatica

The trial met primary, key secondary and other secondary endpoints with statistical significance over placebo Achieved all study objectives, up to 3 months duration of effect with a single injection Demonstrated safety profile of SP-102 -2.5 -2 -1.5 -1 -0.5 0 Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Numeric Pain Rating Scale, LS Mean Change in Average Daily Pain in Affected Leg Placebo n=189 SP-102 n=154 The analysis used a restricted maximum likelihood (REML) based mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM) with fixed effects for treatment (SP-102 or placebo), week, site, Pain Catastrophizing Scale group (<30 or ≥30), baseline averaged daily leg pain score, and treatment-by-week interaction.

C.L.E.A.R. Trial – Key Secondary Endpoint Phase III SP-102 C.L.E.A.R Trial – Secondary Endpoint Phase III Secondary Endpoint Overview The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) - gold standard for measuring degree of disability and estimating quality of life. ODI contains 10 topics concerning intensity of pain, lifting, ability to care for oneself, ability to walk, ability to sit, sexual function, ability to stand, social life, sleep quality, and ability to travel. The key secondary endpoint of Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), showed a 28% improvement at 4 weeks on SP-102 (SEMDEXA™) compared to baseline (minimal clinically meaningful improvement 8%- 12%).1 The LS Mean (SEM) differences as compared to placebo was -6.28 (1.49), with a p-value <0.001.

Slide 32

SP-102 (SEMDEXA™) showed continued reduction of pain beyond one month, and the median time to open- label repeat injection was 99 days (95% CI: 78, 129 days) according to a Kaplan-Meier estimation. By contrast, off-label injectable steroids typically provide pain relief for periods ranging from less than a week and up to one month, and then a repeat injection may be required. No Adverse Events of special interest (paraplegia, hematoma, or infection) No Serious AEs related to drug or injection procedure Month 1 Month 2 SP-102 Time to Repeat Injection (Return of Moderate-Severe Pain) Primary Endpoint Month 3Month 4 Allowance for Open-Label Repeat Injection of SP-102 Month 5 C.L.E.A.R. Trial – Effect Duration and Safety


Slide 33

This is the largest prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study testing the effect and safety of a corticosteroid SP-102 showed meaningful pain relief with significantly large differences relative to placebo (p<0.001) for the primary and almost all secondary pain and QOL endpoints over the 4-week primary analysis period SP-102 treatment arm demonstrated significantly longer time to repeat injection (median 99 days) compared to placebo (median 57 days) Study also demonstrated SP-102 administration having a safety profile with sparse AEs associated with SP-102 administration Data from the C.L.E.A.R. Trial showed that SP-102 (dexamethasone viscous gel) is a safe and effective ESI in the treatment of lumbosacral radiculopathy We are submitting a request to the FDA for Type C meeting to clarify expectations for the size of safety database needed for NDA, given no safety concerns identified in the course of clinical development so far, and to agree on acceptance of SP-102 Phase 3 trial data as pivotal evidence of efficacy to support product registration.

SP-104 Delayed Burst Low Dose Naltrexone (Fibromyalgia)


Slide 39

Fibromyalgia is a long-term condition that causes pain all over the body and affects 3% to 6% of the world population (an estimated 10 million people in the U.S., 75-90% women)1 Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) efficacy well documented Routinely used off-label to treat multiple types of chronic pain, including fibromyalgia, complex regional pain and other indications. Demonstrated efficacy in multiple independent investigator-initiated trials. Problems with current formulations of Naltrexone: The few treatments approved for Fibromyalgia are marginally effective and have unpleasant side-effects, leading to poor compliance. Adverse events of immediate release formulations including hyperalgesia, dysphoria, nausea, anxiety and insomnia. There are no low-dose non-compounded forms of naltrexone commercially available (< 5 mg/day). Physician hesitancy for off-label prescriptions due to dysphoric effects of naltrexone as well as complications of dose titrating with limited compounding pharmacy supply.
