Slide 1: Efficacy and Safety of MPC-7869, a Selective Aβ42-Lowering Agent, in Alzheimer's Disease
Efficacy and Safety of MPC-7869, a Selective Aβ42- Lowering Agent, in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD): Results of a 12-Month Phase 2 Trial and 1-year Follow-on Study Gordon K. Wilcock*, University of Oxford, UK Sandra E. Black, Judith Haworth, Suzanne Hendrix, Mark Laughlin, Kenton Zavitz, Daniel Christens
Slide 2: MPC-7869 Clinical Rationale
MPC-7869 Clinical Rationale Selective Aβ42-Lowering Agent (SALA) in vitro & in vivo – Allosteric modulation of γ-secretase, not inhibition Reduces insoluble amyloid in mouse brain Improves spatial reference learning and memory performance in mice Effective concentrations achievable in humans
Slide 3: Phase 2 Study of MPC-7869 in Subjects with Mild to Moderate AD
Phase 2 Study of MPC-7869 in Subjects with Mild to Moderate AD (MMSE 15-26) Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled – 31 sites in Canada and the United Kingdom 207 Subjects in 3 treatment groups (1:1:1) – 400 mg BID – 800 mg BID – Placebo BID 12 months study / stable AChEI allowed ADAS-

Slide 10: Placebo Patients Re-randomized to Drug at 12 months
Placebo Patients Re-randomized to Drug at 12 months (“Randomized Start”) Patients treated for 24 months decline more slowly than those treated for only 12 months – Consistent with hypothesis for a disease modifying treatment Annual Decline Rate Over 24 Months 24 months treatment at: 12 months plac
