5 • Unique, naturally derived cytotoxin has advantages in potency and significantly reduced side - effects • No apparent effect on bone marrow – combination with immunotherapy is viable • Minimal and manageable side effects • Highly differentiated from other anti - cancer approaches • Prolonged disease stabilization (via RECIST) in a significant percentage of HCC patients • Pharmacodynamic proof of principle via DCE - MRI imaging in HCC patients • Strongly encouraging interim results in GBM patients corroborate HCC data Mipsagargin – Highlights

 

 

6 Mipsagargin – Market Focus • Mipsagargin attacks a universal attribute of all solid tumors − PSMA • Tremendous global unmet need in numerous types of cancers • Indications eligible for FDA orphan drug designation (HCC granted, GBM pending) • GBM is potential stepping stone to larger indications (e.g., breast and lung cancer metastases to brain) Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) • 3rd largest cancer - killer worldwide • Over 600k annual deaths worldwide • Over 700k new cases diagnosed annually worldwide • $1.4B ma rket size by 2019 Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) • 13K deaths annually in the US • Temodar reached peak sales of > $1B Prostate Cancer ( PCa ) • 221K new cases diagnosed annually in the US • $8.6B market size by 2022 Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) • 61K new cases diagnosed annually in the US • 14K deaths annually in the US

 

 

7 • World Class pedigree − technology developed at Johns Hopkins University and the University of Copenhagen − GenSpera holds exclusive license • Current i nfusion c omposition • Patent coverage in US to 2023 • Orphan Drug designation and patent restoration add significant coverage • Data exclusivity outside of US − up to 10 years after drug approval in EU • New composition of matter PCT − worldwide exclusivity expected through 2033 • Other applications filed for methods of use, formulations, process improvements • Development of commercial scale thapsigargin production is a barrier to generic intrusion • The name mipsagargin has novel stem – new drug class differentiation value Intellectual Property

 

 

8 Mechanism of Action: 1. Blood vessels feed living tumor 2. Drug circulates in bloodstream in benign fashion 3. Enzyme within blood vessels of tumor activates drug 4. Activated drug kills tumor blood vessels and cells 5. Death of entire tum or As a result: • Potential for Complete Tumor Kill • Fewer Side Effects Precision Targeting by Design

 

 

9 • RECIST criteria is limited by lack of tumor viability information • HCC patient with gastrohepatic metastatic lymph node involvement (gold arrows) • Increased hypoenhancement after mipsagargin treatment (right panel) suggests response HCC – Pharmacodynamic Proof of Principal via DCE - MRI Baseline Two months

 

 

10 HCC Phase 2 Trial • Advanced HCC patients previously treated with sorafenib. • Median time to progression of 4.5 months vs 2.1 month historical control (p<0.001). • Prolonged disease stabilization in a significant percentage of patients. 24% with stable disease > 5 months. • 63% of patients have best response of stable disease at 2 months. • Side - effect profile – Minimal and manageable (fatigue, nausea, rash, reversible creatinine increase). No apparent effect on bone marrow. • Proof of Concept – Imaging studies demonstrate dramatic effects on tumor blood flow.

 

 

11 Pt 007 T1 - MRI Pt 012 FLAIR - MRI GBM Initial Results: MRI Scans Baseline One Month

 

 

12 GBM Phase 2 Trial Interim Data • Recurrent GBM patients (prior surgery, radiation, temozolomide) • Simon two - stage design • Data in first 12 patients exceeded criteria required for expansion • Variable expression of PSMA – only 60% have 2+ or 3+ staining • Biomarker development funded by FDA grant • 3 of 11 evaluable patients experience clinical benefit • SD for at least 2 months, reduction in tumor volume (no PR) • 2 pts have 2+ staining, 3 rd pt PSMA status yet undetermined • 1 patient with stable disease at 7 months (ongoing) • Dramatic reduction in edema, off steroids • Side - effect profile similar to HCC trial

 

 

13 Mipsagargin – Clinical Development Plan • Phase 2 trial to be initiated in Q2’16 2020 2015 2017 2019 Mipsagargin 2016 2018 GBM Ph 2 Pivotal (Ph 2b/3) Filing / Approval • East Asian dose ranging Phase 2a to begin in Q1’16 • Pivotal study sites focused in East Asia, with some in US and EU • Current Phase 2 results expected Q1’16 • Adaptive pivotal trial design to be conducted at numerous sites worldwide HCC Pivotal (Ph 2b/3) Filing / Approval Ph 2a (Asia) PCa Ph 2 Note: Clinical development plan dependent on access to capital . Renal cancer program on hold; future development dependent on funding.

 

 

14 • Continue promising business development conversations under CDAs with potential pharma partners in in US, Asia and EU • Challenge to optimize value across multiple indications and territories • All key presentations and data are now in Chinese translations • Chinese version of GenSpera website is launched • Initiate clinical trials in HCC with advice from medical opinion leaders from the US, EU, Japan , South Korea, Taiwan and China • Continue aggressive enrollment in ongoing Phase 2 GBM trial • Bring second clinical trial site into study in near future • Planned expansion of management and staffing Business Highlights

 

 

15 • Targeted, prodrug platform has potential across a spectrum of tumors and drugs, enabling precision targeting of different cancers and minimized side effects • Mipsagargin – lead drug candidate with FDA Orphan Drug designation • Novel MOA demonstrating e fficacy , good safety profile and pan - tumor activity • Potential for multiple indications with significant commercial opportunity • Positive proof - of - concept Phase 2 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) trial • Highly encouraging data from ongoing Phase 2 glioblastoma (GBM) trial • Activity appears to correlate with PSMA staining intensity – opportunity for patient selection/precision medicine approach • On track to have results from Phase 2 trial in GBM in Q1’16 and to begin a Phase 2 trial for PCa in Q2’16 Key Investment Highlights
