Slide 6: Results - Heart allograft survival significantly prolonged with standard dose

Slide 7: Results - Platelet counts stable, no thromboembolic complications
Results - Platelet counts were stable and No thromboembolic complications were observed
Slide 8: Results - stTNX suppressed rise in Teff/Treg ratio
(defined as CD4 + CD25 + CD127loFoxp3 + ) Ratio of T eff /T reg Results - stTNX suppressed the rise in Teff/Tregs ratio at the final time - point more effectively than loTNX+MMF
Slide 9: Results - CAV significantly more severe with lo + MMF
CAV; Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy ISHLT; International Society for Heart and Lung Tx ISHLT scores CAV severity scores Results - CAV significantly more severe with loTNX - 1500+MMF * P<0.05 ** P<0.01 *** P<0.005 **** p<0.001
Slide 10: Results - Suppresses anti-donor alloantibody elaboration

Slide 11: Conclusions
Conclusions Standard - dose TNX - 1500 inhibits pathologic alloimmunity in NHPs • Consistently prolonged NHP heart allograft survival • No clinical thrombotic events • Relative expansion of Tregs in peripheral blood • No CMV activation (no prophylaxis) MMF does not improve heart results with low
