Responsive to anti-VEGF therapy • Reduction in leakage and at least partial vascular involution • Located between the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) • Vessels tend to be very rapidly growing and frequently manifest
symptoms early with leakage and bleeding which causes vision loss • Mostly immature vessels with little pericyte coverage in the initial stages
of development
Classic Neovascularization
![Page 8: Posterior Segment Company Showcase - Ohr pharmaceutical](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062316/5877ffc61a28ab91178b6873/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Primary target for combination therapy • More resistant to anti-VEGF therapy – reduction in leakage but little
effect on anatomy • Located beneath the RPE, just above the normal choroidal vascular
layers • Vessels grow slowly and (as much as 30%) may be asymptomatic and
only later develop exudation and become clinically evident• More mature vasculature and more pericyte coverage
Occult Neovascularization

Phase 2 Study in Wet AMD
Mandated Lucentis retreatment SD-OCT evidence of:• Any Retinal Cystic Changes• Any Retinal Fluid• Any Subretinal Fluid• Meaningful RPE Elevation
Treatment-naïve patients with exudative AMD• All lesion compositions (classic, mixed and occult only)• Up to 12 disc areas in size• VA 20/40 to 20/320

Positive Visual Outcomes in Squalamine Combination Therapy Driven by Occult CNV Size
• Occult CNV size at baseline directly correlates with week 36 visual acuity outcomes in Squalamine combination therapy
• This was independent of the presence/absence of classic CNV • This relationship was not observed with ranibizumab
monotherapy treatment.• Consistent positive visual acuity benefit with Squalamine
combination therapy in occult CNV < 10mm2 (~ 4 Disc Areas)
Occult CNV < 10mm2 Occult CNV > 10mm2

Phase 3 Study Design
Treatment-naïve patients with exudative AMD• All lesion compositions (classic, mixed and occult only)• Occult CNV (if present) <10 mm2
• VA 20/40 to 20/320
Primary Endpoint: Visual acuity gain at month 9

Squalamine Lactate Ophthalmic SolutionSummary• Squalamine has the potential to be a convenient and cost-effective
therapy in retinal disease
• Indication in Exudative AMD– Unmet need for improved vision beyond anti-VEGF monotherapy– Strong phase 2 data supporting role of squalamine combination therapy in providing
clinically meaningful vision gains
• Use with Multiple Anti-VEGF Agents– Combination effect with all current and future anti-VEGF agents– Topical delivery adaptable for use with any anti-VEGF treatment regimen/frequency
• Multiple back-of-the-eye indications– Initial data in investigator led clinical trial evaluating retinal vein occlusion indicate
improved vision outcomes– Suggests potential role in retinal vascular disease (RVO and DME)
