Slide 4: Alzheimer's disease progression
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE PROGRESSION Pre-symptomatic Alzheimer Symptomatic Alzheimer 10-20 years 7-10 years Abnormal Area where the highest societal gains can be achieved, and which AlzeCure can cater to Aβ Amyloid Memory Tau Mediated Brain Injury & Structure Clin
Slide 5: Alzstatin modulates the enzyme, alters its cleaving pattern and limits aggregation
Alzstatin® – gamma-secretase modulator Alzstatin® modulates the enzyme, alter its cleaving pattern and thereby limits the aggregation Aggregation X X A42 - main culprit in Alzheimer progression Alzstatin® targets the gamma- secretase as a modulator - does not block enzyme activity 5
Slide 6: Antibodies bind and clear aggregated Aβ peptides
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator A Antibodies bind and clear aggregated A peptides. 6
Slide 7: GSMs inhibit the formation of all Aβ aggregates
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Aβ X GSM’s inhibits the formation of all A aggregates 32 7 *) GSM = Gamma Secretase Modulator
Slide 8: GSMs increase formation of shorter protective Aβ fragments
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Aβ X GSM’s increase formation of shorter protective A fragments 33 8 *) GSM = Gamma Secretase Modulator
Slide 9: Alzstatin - Gamma-Secretase Modulator
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator 34
Slide 10: Alzstatin reduces toxic Aβ42 and Aβ40, increases protective Aβ38 and Aβ37
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Alzstatin reduces toxic A42 and A40, while No effect on total A increasing protective A38 and A37 peptides Consistent with a GSM 10

Slide 12: Small molecule therapy, oral formulation, early treatment
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Small molecule therapy Oral formulation => Home treatment • Small molecules generally pass much more readily • Don’t need to go to the hospital once or twice a across the BBB to its target site - the brain month for an infusion of the drug • Provides a more cos
Slide 13: Clinical PoM and central target engagement already in Phase I
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator • Clinical PoM and central target engagement already in Phase I − SAD/MAD studies conducted in healthy volunteers − Evaluation of safety and tolerability after single and repeated administration − Possibility to explore biomarker effects showing central target
Slide 14: Preventive therapy and maintenance therapy
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Preventive therapy based on genetic risk factors* and biomarkers • Early stand-alone treatment before onset of symptoms and any major neurodegeneration occurs • Prevents build-up of amyloid – an early pathological feature of AD • Suitable for preventive therapy
Slide 15: Preventive therapy and maintenance therapy
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Preventive therapy based on genetic risk factors* and biomarkers • Early stand-alone treatment before onset of symptoms and any major neurodegeneration occurs • Prevents build-up of amyloid – an early pathological feature of AD • Suitable for preventive therapy
Slide 16: Main known competitors
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Main known competitors: − UCSD-776890 (Steven Wagner)/NIH – Phase 1 − Roche RG6289 – Phase 1 Published data on Pfizer’s PF-06648671 show that GSM’s can display both potent efficacy and good safety in man. ➔ Development stage of Alzstatin in line with competitor
Slide 17: Advantages with Alzstatin
Alzstatin® – Gamma-Secretase Modulator Advantages with Alzstatin ✓ Reduces amyloidogenic Aβ42 production ✓ Increase the shorter peptides Aβ37 and Aβ38 - suggested to have protective properties ✓ Do not affect the total amount of Aβ – thus any physiological function likely not affected ✓ Mode of acti
