Product #1: In-Hospital Provides Combined Benefits of Several
Drugs IV Administration Stabilization of Symptoms Reduce Hospitalization Time
9
Product #2: Post-Hospital Controlled Release Drug Easy to Administer Requires Only Periodic Administration Continuous Treatment
10
Product #2: Post-Hospital First 7 days after discharge
Greatest unmet need in heart failure treatment
Cardiologists are frustrated Very few treatment options
CGRP recognized as having the right therapeutic qualities to meet this need Stabilizes heart failure symptoms and reduces
rehospitalizations
