13 Proellex® Efficacy Conclusions
Endometriosis Pain is reduced significantly and the 50 mg dose overall statistically is significantly better than other Proellex® doses and Lucrin® from week 2 – 26 More pain-free days over 26 weeks with the Proellex® 50 mg dose than Lucrin® (p = 0.05) Uterine Fibroids – compared with placebo Severe bleeding significantly reduced in the first month of treatment (p < ) Severity of symptoms UFSQOL (p < ) and HRQOL improve over 3 months (p < [12.5 mg] – p < [25 mg]) Associated reduction in pain (statistically significant)

20 Endometrial Safety Overview
Commonly Asked Questions Uterine Bleeding Endometrial thickening and histology

21 Proellex Safety – Uterine Bleeding
Study/Pt Treatment/ Duration Age Findings Event and Outcome ZPE-002 02-201 Proellex 12.5 mg 5 months 37/C Mo. 3 ET 19 mm Mo. 5 ET 25 mm Spotting 21 days after treatment stopped and severe uterine bleeding at 42 days. D&C. Full recovery 02-202 Proellex 25 mg 29/C Mo. 4 ET 37 mm Mo. 5 ET 62 mm Severe uterine bleeding 19 days after treatment stopped. D&C. Full recovery 03-216 Proellex 50 mg 5 1/2 months 35/C Mo. 0 ET 11 mm Mo. 3 ET 11 mm Mo. 6 ET 21 mm Moderate bleeding at 5.5 mo on Rx – severe bleeding at 1 mo later. D&C. Full recovery. 03-209 6 months 32/C Mo. 0 ET 8 mm Mo. 6 ET 20 mm Bleeding at 6 mo on treatment. Increased in severity over 2 days. D&C. Full recovery

22 Phase 1/2 Endometriosis Trial ZPE-002: Endometrial Thickness and Bleeding

23 Endometrial Thickening
Post-menopausal women ET ≤ 5-7 mm (literature) ET 9-20mm+ in placebo treated premenopausal women Normal cyclical shedding and regeneration of the endometrium every 28 days Prevention of normal endometrial shedding in pre-menopausal women treated with Proellex® results in histological changes which may result in unscheduled bleeding.

24 Phase 1/2 Endometriosis Trial ZPE-002 Endometrial Thickness

25 Phase 2 Uterine Fibroid Trial ZPU-003 Endometrial Thickness

26 Management of Endometrial Thickening and Uterine Bleeding
Endometrial thickening occurs with Prolonged treatment exposure Lower dose after 3 months treatment exposure Uterine bleeding Severe and unscheduled occurred only when the ET exceeded 20mm When treatment duration exceeded 5 months Therefore both endometrial thickening and the risk of severe bleeding can be managed by Treatment cycles of 4 months duration Allow an “off-drug interval” until menstruation resumes (4-6 weeks after drug stopped) Resume treatment on day 3-10 of the new menstrual cycle 29 women have gone through 3 treatment cycles successfully in the UF Extension study

27 Overall Conclusions Proellex is an effective medical treatment for
Endometriosis rapid cessation and reduction of pain Uterine fibroids Rapid and maintained reduction in bleeding Significant restoration of QOL Rapid recovery of anemia Proellex safety profile very encouraging No consistent involvement of any organ system Issues of ET and unscheduled bleeding – prospective management paradigm has been developed which makes medical management of endometriosis and uterine fibroids safe and effective Endometrial histology Benign endometrium with class related secondary findings
