Preview of FPC New Indication Opportunities 17
1st priority: Home Infusion - Overview • Opportunity: I.V. administration of specialty drugs or nutrients in the home setting • Home and specialty infusion marketplace is experiencing explosive growth • Many patients treated with home infusion therapies suffer from iron deficiency anemia • Traditional I.V. iron is rarely administered at home due to safety concerns • FPC is uniquely suited for home infusion due to its excellent safety and tolerability profile and administration….and the clinical program could be rapid and relatively low cost Comparison of Home Infusion Therapy by Total Patients Served: U.S. patients undergoing the following daily home infusion therapies are known to have a high incidence of iron deficiency and/or iron deficiency 2010: 2019: anemia (30 – 60%): 829,000 3,224,427 Parenteral Nutrition 113,000 patients Hydration 160,000 patients Chemotherapy 132,000 patients Inotropic agents 86,000 patients 18
Home Infusion: 1st priority Favorable Market Access and Rapid, Low Cost Clinical Program Market access conditions for FPC as a home infusion therapy are favorable: • Almost 50% of home infusion therapy is reimbursed by commercial payers using a well-established universal approach • Medicare provides favorable coverage for specific eligible drugs through the Part B home infusion benefit* • Payers are increasingly motivated to reimburse home infusion therapy to limit in-office visits and hospitalizations and to reduce costs Clinical Program could be rapid and low cost: • Type C meeting with FDA in 2020 • Phase II studies, 2021: • Total cost: $1.5m-$2.5m • Estimated completion in 13-18 months • Phase III: $5m-$8m, approx. 2 years *Part B Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetic, Orthotics, and Supplies Benefit 19
Under Consideration: Acute Heart Failure - Overview • Opportunity: Heart failure in the U.S. is a large and growing patient population • Prevalence of heart failure grew 6-fold from 2010 – 2018 (now 6.5m patients)1,2 • A significant number of patients are hospitalized each year with acute heart failure • 1.2m patients are hospitalized annually in the U.S. with acute systolic heart failure3 • Cost of 1-day hospitalization for AHF patient = $2,4444 • Re-admission within 30 days costs a hospital $13,4004 • Iron deficiency, independent of anemia, is a recognized complication that decreases cardiac performance • 55-85% of AHF patients are iron deficient5 • Multiple studies with traditional I.V. iron in heart failure outpatients show important clinical benefits • Utility of traditional I.V. iron therapy is limited for hospitalized patients due to safety concerns and delayed availability of iron • FPC may be uniquely suited for treatment of iron deficiency in hospitalized AHF patients • Phase II POC : cardiac bioenergetics study can be completed in 20-24 months: • Objective: Establish mechanistic proof of concept – FPC impact on heart energetics and function 1. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db108.htm 2. https://www.cdc.gov/heartdisease/heart_failure.htm 3.
