Slide 2: Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson’s Disease “Do you think you could use your polymer technology to develop a drug to treat Parkinson’s disease ?” Serina shareholder and patient with Parkinson’s disease Non-Confidential 2
Slide 3: Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson’s Disease Of the current drugs for Parkinson’s disease the dopamine agonists had some attractive features for a POZ conjugate approach … Non-Confidential 3
Slide 4: The Therapeutic Window For Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
The “Therapeutic Window” For Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease Current Drugs – “wearing off” and dyskinesia Adapted from: Stocchi F, et al. Eur Neurol, 1996. Non-Confidential 4
Slide 5: None of the approved drugs for PD deliver CDS
None of the approved drugs for PD deliver CDS … but would it work ? Non-Confidential 5
Slide 6: Summary
Summary Study Design Double-blind, double-dummy trial of levo-dopa gel infusion (37 patients) versus levo-dopa sustained release capsules (34 patients) * Endpoint was reduction in “off” time and corresponding increase in “on” time (without troublesome dyskinesia) during 12 weeks of administrat
Slide 7: SER-214 Product Concept
SER-214 Product Concept Target Product Profile Subcutaneous delivery once a week in a standard insulin or tuberculin syringe (injectate ~ 0.5-1 cc) Prompt onset of dopaminergic “tone” (within 20-30 min) Steady-state levels of dopamine agonist within a relatively narrow therapeutic window S
Slide 8: SER-214
SER-214 20 kDa POZ polymer with 10 rotigotine molecules Non-Confidential 8
Slide 9: PK Profiles in Plasma
PK Profiles in Plasma SER-214 “slow release” SER-214 showed a marked difference in release rates, with a half-life of ~ 11 hours in the rat and > 3 days in monkey and human (the same linker:drug attached to PEG or polydextrans releases completely in < 10 minutes) Non-Confidential 9
Slide 10: MPTP Monkey Model
MPTP Monkey Model Study Design The study is a twelve week PK and PD study to assess the efficacy and safety of a weekly SC injection of SER-214 versus a twice daily oral dose of L-DOPA versus polymer alone Adult monkeys (6-7 YOA) were treated with daily MPTP for several months MPTP is a mitoch
Slide 11: Preliminary Results: PK Profiles
Preliminary Results PK Profiles Plasma Rotigotine levels following four SC injections of SER-214 to Monkeys (n=3; SD) 1000 Plasma concentration (ng/mL) 100 Total Rotigotine (Pro-drug levels) 10 A weekly SC injection of SER-214 delivers a 1 steady-state level of rotigotine upon repeat 0.1 dosing Fr
Slide 12: Preliminary Results (Week Two)
Preliminary Results (Week Two) vehicle N=3 L-DOPA (15 mg/kg, b.i.d.) N=3 SER-214 (1 mg/kg equiv. 1/ weekly) N=2 activity (0-360 min, % post-MPTP) 300 # A single SC injection ** of SER-214 promotes 200 * prompt and sustained * locomotor activity 100 0 1 4 7 1 4 7 1 4 7 study day Non-Confidential 12
Slide 13: Preliminary Results
Preliminary Results SER-214 appears to be safe – no adverse events reported in the monkeys to date Polymer control is safe, and shows no evidence of efficacy L-DOPA twice daily promotes prompt, but non-sustained locomotor activity (as expected for this model) Monkeys in the L-DOPA group have

Slide 17: Summary
Summary SER-214 Target Product Profile achieved Parkinson’s disease models (rat and monkey) At least as efficacious as levo-dopa in MPTP monkey model (Week 2) All monkeys in levo-dopa:carbidopa cohort have developed dyskinesias None of the monkeys in the SER-214 cohort have developed dys
