27 Menopause Overview 1) National Institutes of Health, National Institute on Aging, https://www.nia.nih.gov/health/publication/menopause, last acc ess ed November 3, 2015. 2) International Journal on Women’s Health, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3897322/ Menopause represents the natural life - stage transition when women stop having periods as the production of Estrogen (E) and Progesterone (P) decreases ▪ Symptoms include vasomotor symptoms (hot flashes, night sweats), mood changes and vaginal dryness ▪ Prolonged lack of estrogen can affect the bones, cardiovascular system, and increases risks for osteoporosis Long history of Estrogen (E) and Progesterone (P) use ▪ Estrogen and progesterone have been used for over 50 years as treatment ▪ Estrogen to reduce symptoms and other long - term conditions ▪ Progesterone to prevent thickening of the uterine wall 2 – Increased risk for endometrial hyperplasia/endometrial cancer if estrogen unopposed 2 ▪ Average age of menopause 51 years 1 ▪ Women may spend, on average, more than one - third of their lives in a hypoestrogenic state May result in physical and emotional symptoms 1
28 TX - 001HR Product Development Rationale ▪ 2002 Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study showed that synthetic hormones increased the risk of breast cancer, stroke, heart attack and blood clots (all FDA - approved combination hormonal products contain a synthetic Progestin and not a bio - identical Progesterone) ▪ Post WHI, women and healthcare providers shifted to Bio - Identical Hormone Therapy (BHRT) containing bio - identical e stradiol and bio - identical progesterone as an alternative despite being unapproved drugs that are not covered by insurance ▪ 90M+ scripts of synthetic hormone therapy prescribed annually before 2002, declining to ~10M in 2015 1 » Today, patients have the choice between three second best therapies: • FDA - approved, synthetic combination hormones • FDA - approved, separate bio - identical hormone products • Unapproved, compounded bio - identical hormones that have not been proven safe and effective, or covered by insurance ▪ Compounding filled the need for BHRT ▪ 30M scripts (3M women) of Compounded Bio - identical Hormone Therapy (CBHRT) prescribed annually in the U.S. currently 2,3 ▪ No FDA - approved BHRT combination product of estradiol + bio - identical progesterone ▪ TX - 001HR would become the first and only FDA - approved bio - identical combination product to fill this unmet need 1) Symphony Health Solutions PHAST Data powered by IDV; Annual 2015 2) The reported number of annual custom compounded hormone therapy prescription of oral and transdermal estradiol and progesterones taken combined and in combination (26MM to 33MM) 3) Pinkerton, J.V. 2015.
