Investment Thesis © Savara Inc. All Rights Reserved. The molgramostim in aPAP clinical program has a high probability of success Significant global commercial opportunity As an inhaled biologic, molgramostim has the potential for a long-term, durable revenue stream
Molgramostim Molgramostim for Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis (aPAP)
© Savara Inc. All Rights Reserved. aPAP: A Disease of Alveolar Macrophage Dysfunction Alveolar macrophages Need GM-CSF for maturation, expansion, and function (e.g., surfactant clearance) GM-CSF Critical to alveolar homeostasis, structure, function, and host defense aPAP Caused by GM-CSF autoantibodies which block GM-CSF signaling and reduce surfactant clearance Surfactant accumulation causes altered gas exchange in the lung, reduced blood oxygenation and, ultimately, hypoxemic respiratory failure Baseline (Week 0) After Treatment (Week 24) From IMPALA trial aPAP PATIENT
© Savara Inc. All Rights Reserved. aPAP is a Long-Term, Chronic Disease Shortness of Breath Gas exchange in the lungs is impaired and patients may experience shortness of breath At first it occurs upon exertion, but as disease progresses, it can occur even when a person is at rest Fatigue, Decreased Exercise Tolerance Fatigue and significantly reduced exercise capacity can dramatically impact the simplest of daily activities, e.g., getting winded walking up a flight of stairs Cough and Episodes of Fever Cough, sputum production, and episodes of fever, especially if secondary lung infection develops Fibrosis and Lung Transplant In the long-term, the disease can lead to serious complications, including fibrosis, often leading to the need for lung transplantation There are no approved drugs for the treatment of aPAP. Only option is whole lung lavage, an invasive procedure.
Requires insertion of double-lumen endobronchial tube for lung separation Treated lung is repeatedly filled with up to 15-50L of saline and then drained by gravity Patient is percussed to emulsify the surfactant sediment Saline is drained by gravity and continued until lavage fluid becomes clear Whole Lung Lavage is Not a Standardized Procedure © Savara Inc. All Rights Reserved. Whole lung lavage is an invasive procedure to physically remove excess surfactant from the lungs and requires hospitalization Performed under general anesthesia by highly experienced physicians at certain sites Sources: 1: Campo, Assessment and Management of PAP in a Reference Center, Orphanet Jour. of Rare Dis., 2013; 2: Campo, Nat.

Complications and Short-Comings of Whole Lung Lavage Rib fracture Hypoxia Pneumothorax (collapsed lung) Hydrothorax (fluid in pleural cavity) Superimposed infection Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Short Comings Treatment fails to address pathophysiology of disease Patients continue to experience symptomatic deterioration between procedures Rollercoaster ride of improvement and decline Procedure is not standardized and remains highly operator-dependent Potential Complications
Due to aPAP’s rarity and associated non-specific symptoms, patients are often misdiagnosed with more common pulmonary illnesses (e.g., recurrent pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, COPD, asthma) © Savara Inc. All Rights Reserved. Journey to Diagnosis Can Be Long and Misdiagnosis is Common Diagnostic tests typically conducted to rule-out other more common pulmonary diseases: Transbronchial biopsy and cytological analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid Pulmonary function tests Imaging Secondary PAP testing
In Japan, a Simple Blood Antibody Test is Routinely Performed to Diagnose aPAP © Savara Inc. All Rights Reserved. Research advances have led to the development of a highly effective, simple blood test that can diagnose aPAP 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity Distinguishes aPAP from other respiratory diseases Not yet commercially available in the US and EU Once available in the US and EU, it could improve accuracy and reduce time to diagnosis
