Clinical Data, Inc. at a Glance Completed transformation into a pharmaceutical company with two late-stage drug candidates that address large markets Vilazodone: a serotonin 1A receptor partial agonist and reuptake inhibitor in development for the treatment of depression Stedivaze: potential best-in-class coronary vasodilator for cardiac stress testing in Phase III trial Growing therapeutics pipeline, including Phase II compound with Orphan Drug Designation for pulmonary arterial hypertension Multiple partnership and licensing opportunities 3 PDUFA date January 22, 2011


 

Depression Market Remains Large and Unsatisfied $12 billion U.S. market and growing1 Majority of patients do not achieve success with first therapy2 Side effects are common, e.g., gastrointestinal, sexual function, CNS disorders, and weight gain Co-morbid conditions often require additional medications Patient compliance is poor Despite billions spent on R&D for drugs with unique mechanisms, nothing truly novel developed to treat depression since the introduction of SNRIs in 1993 4 1 IMS Health's National Prescription Audit and National Sales Perspective, September 2009 2 STAR*D Study, January, 2006 American Journal of Psychiatry


 

Vilazodone: A Serotonin 1A Receptor Partial Agonist and Reuptake Inhibitor 5 Blocks serotonin reuptake Binds with high affinity to 5-HT1A auto- and hetero-receptors, Down-regulates 5-HT1A auto-receptors Richardson-Jones JW et al. Neuron. 2010;65:40-52


 

2nd Phase III Vilazodone N = 231 Placebo N = 231 MADRS (primary) -13.3 -10.8 -2.5 0.009 HAMD17 -10.7 -9.1 -1.6 0.026 HAMA -7.0 -5.7 -1.2 0.037 Vilazodone Demonstrated Superiority to Placebo in Two Phase III Trials1 Endpoints Least Squares Mean Change at Week 8 LS Mean Treatment Difference p-value 1st Phase III Vilazodone N = 198 Placebo N = 199 MADRS (primary) -12.9 -9.6 -3.2 0.001 HAMD17 -10.4 -8.6 -1.7 0.022 HAMA -6.5 -5.2 -1.4 0.031 1 Rickels et al. J Clin Psychiatry, 2009 and data on file with Clinical Data, Inc. All p-values are from ITT/LOCF analyses 6


 

Findings from Long-term Safety Study (LTSS) Consistent with Phase III, Placebo-Controlled Trials Improvement Weeks Receiving Treatment 1Observed cases analysis (scores for 254 patients who remained in the study). N = 596 in effectiveness population. Data on file with Clinical Data, Inc. MADRS scores improved over 20 weeks and was sustained over 52-weeks1 Subject retention was twice that seen in historical evaluation of other antidepressants 7


 

Vilazodone Was Generally Well Tolerated in Phase III Trials and LTSS Most common adverse events in Phase III trials were diarrhea, nausea, and insomnia1 Most were mild or moderate in intensity and did not require treatment No single adverse event led to discontinuation in >1% of patients No effects on vital signs, ECG, lab tests (including liver function tests), or body weight, when compared to placebo Sexual function was similar to placebo, as measured by validated scales. Low incidence of patient reported adverse events related to sexual function. LTSS results were consistent with Phase III studies 1 ¡A 5% and twice placebo according to results of Phase III trials 8


 

Extended Intellectual Property Protection for Vilazodone U.S. Composition of Matter patent expires in 2014 5-year extension anticipated via Hatch-Waxman providing protection into 2019 Newly U.S. issued patent for most commercially viable polymorphic form extends protection for ~3 more years to 2022 European patent also granted, related applications granted in other territories and applications pending in many other countries Process to secure additional patents is well underway and anticipate further claims in the future 9


 

Market Dynamics in Treatment of Depression Are Changing Only one currently branded depression drug may be on the market beyond 2014 Brand promotion is decreasing in historically promotionally sensitive category Targeted approaches and smaller sales forces are becoming more common Market is awaiting new treatment options and has historically embraced drugs with new mechanisms 10
