Pipeline: Madrigal has Two Phase 2 Programs with Multiple Near-Term Catalysts Madrigal is focused on the development of its pipeline of THR-β agonists for the treatment of NASH and Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) Pre- Compound Indication Phase 1 Phase 2 Phase 3 Upcoming Catalysts Clinical Phase
Slide 6: Mechanism of Action: The Importance of Liver THR-β in NASH
Mechanism of Action: The Importance of Liver THR-β in NASH We believe that MGL-3196, a selective THR-β agonist, will treat the underlying disease in NASH patients In humans THR-β agonism: Lowers LDL-cholesterol Lowers triglycerides Lowers liver fat, potentially reducing lipotoxicity, NASH No t
Slide 7: Lipotoxicity May be Reduced by THR-β Agonists
Lipotoxicity May be Reduced by THR-β Agonists Most hepatic fat derives from external sources, particularly free fatty acids from adipocytes In NASH, β-oxidation of liver lipids is reduced contributing to β-oxidation of fat in lipotoxicity mitochondria THR-β agonists reduce liver fat through br
Slide 8: THR-β Agonism: Potential Anti-Fibrotic Actions
THR-β Agonism: Potential Anti-Fibrotic Actions Treating NASH, rather than fibrosis, is key to addressing the disease • Resolution of NASH, without reducing fibrosis, is an approvable endpoint • Recognition that liver fibrosis will decrease with time after NASH resolves (similar to reduction of fib
Slide 9: MGL-3196, a First-in-Class Liver-Directed THR-β Agonist
MGL-3196, a First-in-Class Liver-Directed THR- β Agonist We believe MGL-3196 is the first bona fide THR-β selective molecule with key advantages over other companies’ previous analogues Discovery of MGL-3196 and backups at Roche utilized a novel functional assay that went beyond what previous comp
Slide 10: MGL-3196: Radiographic Tissue Distribution
MGL-3196: Radiographic Tissue Distribution MGL-3196 is highly protein bound (>99%) and is taken up into the liver by hepatic transporters The primary route of elimination after an oral dose of [14C]MGL-3196 in rats and dogs is the feces via biliary excretion Uptake is low to undetectable in he
