The Cytisine Difference Dual-Acting, Highly-Targeted MOA Single & Short Treatment Anti-Addiction Dosing Schedule
Activity 1: Partial Agonist Cytisine binds to the receptor partially stimulating dopamine release Reduces nicotine cravings Reduces the severity of withdrawal symptoms Activity 2: Partial Antagonist Cytisine binding to the receptor prevents the binding of nicotine Removes the “nicotine-induced” reward and satisfaction associated with smoking Dual-Acting MOA Specifically Targets α4β2 Nicotine Receptors Activation of the central nervous mesolimbic dopamine system is believed to be the neuronal mechanism underlying reinforcement and reward experienced by smoking
Dual-acting MOA Specifically Targets α4β2 Nicotine Receptors Current Smoker Increased nicotine receptors Increase sensitivity of receptors Treatment Completion Receptors normalized Nicotine receptors Nicotine Increased dopamine release Rapid burst firing Cytisine Treatment Initiation Receptors partially blocked Less stimulation of receptors Decreased dopamine release Normal burst firing Normalized dopamine release Reduced burst firing
Less selective receptor targeting High uptake into brain combined with activity at “off-target” receptors could be responsible for varenicline’s adverse event profile Advantages Over Current Treatments More selective receptor targeting High affinity selective binding to α4β2 receptors in brain Low affinity binding to α7 & 5-HT3 in brain and α3β4 in peripheral nervous system* Site Receptor Cytisine Varenicline Brain α4β2 ✓ ✓ α7 ✓ 5-HT3 ✓ Periphery α3β4 ✓ *Coe J et al.

Cytisine’s Relative Efficacy Profile Cochrane Group independent meta analysis of nicotine receptor partial agonists* Relative risk versus placebo for both cytisine and varenicline were in the same order of magnitude A head-to-head between cytisine and varenicline has not been performed Cytisine treatment for 25 days vs. varenicline for 12 or more weeks Cytisine trials were conducted with minimal behavioral support, varenicline trials generally with more extensive behavioral support Preliminary data from repeat dose PK/PD study reinforces efficacy of cytisine *Cahill K et al; Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2016, Issue 5 Relative “Risk” (RR) defined as the likelihood of quitting smoking and remaining abstinent at longest follow-up. Higher RR numerical value equates to greater benefit. Cytisine Pooled RR based on 2 published studies N=937 RR (CI95%) longest follow-up 3.98 (2.01-7.87) Varenicline Pooled RR based on 27 published studies N=12,625 RR (CI95%) longest follow-up 2.24 (2.06-2.43)
Classic anti-addiction dosing schedule Cytisine titrates from 9mg/day to 1.5mg in typical anti-addiction approach Unlike varenicline, steady-state dosing Cytisine dose reductions during course of therapy reflect decreased nicotine dependence Differentiated dosing schedule has distinct competitive advantage Shorter time on medication leading to increased compliance and reduced risk of substitute addiction Applicability in urgent ‘need-to-quit’ smokers with co-morbidities Anti-Addiction Dosing Schedule Day 1 - 3 1 tablet every 2 hours Total: 6 tablets/day Day 4 - 12 1 tablet every 2.5 hours Total: 5 tablets/day Day 13 - 16 1 tablet every 3 hours Total: 4 tablets/day Day 17 - 20 Day 21 - 24 Day 25 1 tablet every 4-5 hours Total: 3 tablets/day 1 tablet every 6 hours Total : 2 tablets/day 1 tablet

Treatment options are limited with nothing new in over a decade Chantix (varenicline) and ZYBAN® (bupropion hydrochloride) Both are oral drugs given on average for 12 weeks Safety has been a concern with both treatments including historic black box warnings Nicotine replacement ineffective and creates costly, substitute addiction Quitting is Hard! Multiple attempts and treatments are typical 70% of current smokers have expressed a desire to quit, 55% attempted to quit in the past year but only ~7% succeeded* Up to 60% of quitters relapse in the first year due to addictive nature of nicotine* Estimated 8–11 attempts before quitting permanently* Health and economic consequences prompted intervention strategies Smoking-related healthcare costs in the U.S. are estimated to exceed $300 billion annually* Favorable reimbursement for smoking cessation medications includes coverage for multiple quit attempts and counseling services Smoking Cessation Market Primed for New Treatment Options ®Registered trademark Glaxo Group *Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, Quitting Smoking Among Adults – United States, 2000-2015
Chantix dominates U.S. market (83% share) due to high pricing and favorable reimbursement environment 74% of global Chantix sales attributed to U.S. market ($742M) From a patient share perspective, Chantix only captures ~30% of overall treated market ~2.7M U.S. Chantix prescriptions written annually ~43% of scripts are starter kits representing individual patients – suggests high dropout rate following 1-month of treatment 36M smokers in the U.S. = Only 3% of the overall smoking population receiving Chantix High Unmet Need for New Treatments Source: IMS Health, QuintilesIMS, May 2017, PFE Q4 & 2017 YE Results
