Heart Failure -

A Large Market with Significant Unmet Need

The prevalence of heart failure is high and increasing (as is mortality)

  • 6M U.S., 18-20M worldwide patients
  • #1 cause of U.S. hospitalization in patients > 65 years old;
    • > 1.3M admissions annually (U.S.) ~1.5M admissions annually (E.U.)
  • In-patientmortality up to 7%; 30-day: can exceed 10%
  • Most expensive of the Medicare diagnoses; U.S. hospitals spend > $18B annually

Lack of therapeutic advances led the FDA to issue new Heart Failure Guidance in July 2019 for greater development flexibility in acceptable endpoints, specifically acknowledging mortality is not required

Sources: American Heart Association; DRG Data

Acute Heart Failure -

Significant Healthcare Issue with Significant Unmet Clinical Need

  • There has not been meaningful new pharmacologic advancements in acute heart failure for decades
  • Current approaches to acutely improve cardiac function are associated with unwanted effects:
    • Heart rhythm disturbances
    • Increased heart rate and myocardial oxygen demand
    • Decreased blood pressure
    • Potential damage to the heart muscle (increased troponin)
    • Worsening renal function
    • Mortality
  • Patients with low blood pressure (SBP) and peripheral hypoperfusion are high risk, challenging patients. These patients are also generally resistant to diuretic therapy and often discharged in a sub-optimal state
    • Low SBP in-patient mortality approximately two-fold greater than normal / high SBP1
    • There is a direct relationship between early drop in SBP and worsening renal function in acute heart failure2

Istaroxime - Acute Heart Failure

Next Steps

Objective: Create a strong phase 3 and partnership position

Execute an additional study designed to complete Phase 2 and inform Phase 3

  • 300 patients, 75 centers globally (estimates)

Leverage characteristics in a target population whose needs match the unique attributes of istaroxime: patients with low blood pressure and/or diuretic resistance

Increase infusion time to >24 hours

Obtain data on measures that can be primary endpoints for phase 3

Planned study start up in 2H 2020 to be able to

enroll in mid-2021 with resourcing

Early Cardiogenic Shock Treatment

Istaroxime Potential Opportunity for Accelerated Approval Pathway

Cardiogenic shock is a severe presentation of heart failure characterized by very low blood

pressure and hypoperfusion accompanied by high PCWP and decreased urine output

Challenges

FDA Regulatory Commentary

with Break-Through Therapy

Designation Potential

No satisfactory pharmacological intervention

to reverse the conditions

High associated mortality and morbidity

Sponsors are potentially not required to show a benefit other than an increase in blood pressure to support approval of drugs to treat hypotension in the setting of shock1. (Precedent:

NDA for Giapreza® (IV Angiotensin II), approved in 2017 for increasing

MAP in distributive shock)2

Precedent lead us to believe there may be opportunities

for an accelerated regulatory pathway and review

  • COVID-19infection can cause serious lung injury resulting in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) - a condition with high mortality and no approved drug therapies and where surfactant abnormalities are an important factor.
  • Recent publications suggest that lung fibrosis and severe interstitial changes occur in COVID-19 patients who developed ARDS1, 2, 3.
    • These changes resemble those seen in premature infants who are initially ventilated due to RDS and later develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).
    • These observations support the rationale for use of exogenous surfactant in the treatment of ARDS

caused by COVID-19.

KL4 Surfactant Significantly Reduced Mortality in a Pre-ClinicalH5N1 Study - With and Without Anti-Viral Agent

  • Ferrets Infected with highly pathogenic avian (H5N1) influenza
  • Results in significant viral and inflammation related lung damage that

is substantially ameliorated by KL4 surfactant treatment

KL4 = aerosolize KL4 surfactant, WFI = aerosolized water (control), AVD = aerosolized KL4 surfactant + antiviral

22

Surfactant Administration In Severe COVID-19 Lung Injury May Have Potential to Provide Significant Benefits

  • We believe our synthetic KL4 surfactant may have the potential to mitigate surfactant deficiency and resist the widespread surfactant destruction that can occur as a result of COVID-19
  • Synthetic KL4 surfactant removes any immunological concerns and has manufacturing scalability versus animal- derived surfactants

Pre-clinical and clinical evidence shows surfactant replacement therapy has the potential to:

Improve

  • Lung function
  • Gas exchange and oxygenation
  • Lung compliance

Decrease

  • Inflammation in the lung
  • Which may decrease lung damage, facilitate recovery and decrease mechanical ventilation

Lucinactant (KL4 Surfactant) For The Treatment of COVID-19

Initial phase 2 study is to demonstrate changes in physiological parameters in COVID-19 associated lung injury and ARDS

  • Up to 20 patients from 4-5 US sites
    • led by investigators at Brigham & Women's and Duke Medical Center
  • Dosing through the endotracheal tube, target 80 mg TPL/kg. Repeat dosing

based on improvement in oxygenation

  • Outcome measures include:
    • Physiologic response: Oxygenation Index (OI)
    • Lung compliance on the ventilator
    • Clinical parameters (time on MV, days in ICU, mortality)

Q4 2020 start; expected recruitment in approximately 3 - 6 months of time

(depending on COVID-19 rates)

If study outcomes are favorable, plan can be to initiate 2 expanded trials:

  1. Expanded study in ventilated patients to establish outcomes
  2. Aerosolized delivery to avoid mechanical ventilation (similar to our respiratory distress syndrome studies)

AEROSURF®

Synthetic KL4 Surfactant with Proprietary Aerosol Delivery System for the Treatment of RDS

Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS)

Current Treatment Pathways

  • Premature infants experience respiratory distress syndrome ("RDS") due to lungs lacking endogenous surfactant. Surfactant helps keep lungs open between breaths and gas exchange
  • Physicians must choose between invasive surfactant delivery with known, significant complications or non-invasive nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) alone (that often fails without surfactant)

Program Evolution

Transitioned to the newly-developed ADS

    • Demonstrated efficacy in
      reducing nCPAP failure, need for
      intubation and BPD with a
      generally positive safety profile
  • Completed three phase 2a

and 2b trials

Program Strategy

1 Execute a small (n=~80 - 90) Bridging Study to transition to EOP2 / Phase 3:

  • Demonstrate the new ADS works and supplement phase 2 data
  • Optimize dosing with more drug and shorter repeat intervals

2 Leveraging the partnership with

Lee's to execute in Asia (the largest market) and fund the above study in a non-dilutive manner

  • We believe this allows Windtree to do more investment across adult applications (i.e. Lung Injury) and with acute cardiovascular programs)

3 Continue business development for potential additional partnerships and licensing ex-Asia
