Search for the Ideal Anticoagulant Efficacy Ability to prevent thrombosis Safety Low risk of bleeding Titratability Ability to adjust the level of anticoagulation to individual clinical needs Reversibility Ability to safely, rapidly and predictably neutralize the anticoagulant effect when clinically indicated Convenience Daily single-bolus injections without need for continuous infusions or routine monitoring Assessable Monitoring via established coagulation assays

Aptamers: A Unique Class of Direct Protein Antagonists n Single-stranded nucleic acids that adopt a defined shape n Unique MOA’s for robust blocking of protein-protein interactions n Selected for specific target binding properties n Minimal toxicity n Low/no immunogenicity n IV or subcutaneous injectables n “Tunable” pharmacokinetics n PEG-conjugated aptamers cleared by nucleolytic breakdown in the blood n Manufactured by a solid phase chemical process 4 SELEX TM

Rationale for Targeting Factor IXa n Factor IXa is the proximal driver of clot propagation n Factor IXa is ~7 fold more thrombogenic then factor Xa and ~60 fold more thrombogenic than thrombin on a molar basis n FVIIIa/FIXa activation of FX is the rate limiting step in thrombin generation n FIXa concentration is lower than Xa and thrombin, making high levels of target inhibition more readily achievable n High Factor IX levels are associated with increase in ACS and venous thromboembolism n Foreign materials directly activate Factor IX n Factor IX depletion (Hemophilia B) characterized by aPTT prolongation proportional to degree of disease 8 8
