27 TARA - 002 in LMs Lymphatic Malformations Rare, non - malignant lesions consisting of dilated, lymphatic fluid - filled sacs caused by abnormal development of the lymphatic endothelial system (1) Epidemiology: incidence of lymphatic malformations is ≈1,400 - 1,800 LM cases per year (2) Current treatment options Current treatment options include surgical excision with high complication (33%) and recurrence (55%) rates (3) as well as off - label use of sclerosants Potential for Priority Review Voucher upon approval Granted RPDD in 2021 Ongoing Ph 2 clinical trial Ph 2 STARBORN - 1 trial in pediatric LMs patients is ongoing Additional indications Historical literature and patient experience indicate that TARA - 002 could have the potential to treat other maxillofacial cysts 1.

After dosing, the clinical success rate was 66%, which was not statistically different from the Immediate Treatment Group. **Results were analyzed by lesion type across all treatment groups 1. Results based on retrospective analysis of source verified data that included the full dataset of subjects enrolled in randomized study between January 1998 and August 2005, including data in the published study (Smith et al. 2009) which included subjects enrolled between January 1998 and November 2004. 29 © 2025 Protara Therapeutics.
