Excellent Safety Profile
MOA
•
~1,000 patient experience
•
CF101 is safe and well tolerated
•
No dose-response relationship is evident
between CF101 and adverse events
•
low incidence (<2%) of serious AEs and
similar across all dose groups including
placebo
Small Molecules for Better Sight
CF101 for Ophthalmic Diseases – Rational
•
Dry Eye/Uveitis - A3AR agonists have a broad
anti-inflammatory effect
Demonstrated in pre-clinical pharmacology studies in Rheumatoid
arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Uveitis,
Pulmonary inflammation and Sepsis
•
Glaucoma - A3AR agonists induce neuroprotective effects on retinal ganglion cells
Prevention of retinal ganglion cells loss both in vitro and in vivo

CF101-treated group (blue line) as compared to placebo (pink line) over a 12-weeks dosing period. The difference between the
group is clearly apparent and significant (p=0.006). The measurement made at week 14, which is 2 weeks post dosing, shows a
clear reduction in effect.

Anti-inflammatory effect of CF101
Posterior Uveitis
Inhibition of EAU by CF101: fundoscopy. Mice were
immunized with a uveitogenic regimen of IRBP and
treated with CF101 from Day 7 after immunization. Eyes
were examined for disease after pupil dilation under a
binocular microscope. Shown are results on Day 20
following immunization.
