3Highlights
- Scar revision met its primary endpoint
- dosed twice, once at the time of surgery and once
24 hours later - Breast augmentation did not meet its primary
endpoint - dosed once, at the time of surgery
- Cumulative data from recently reported trials
indicate that Juvistas efficacy is greater when
given twice - European Phase 3 trial planned to commence in H2
2008 in scar revision surgery, likely with 200ng
and 500ng dosed twice - Large scar reduction market remains accessible to
Juvista strategy to achieve this is being
updated - Juvistas use in scar revision surgery, a
procedure carried out by Plastic Surgeons and
Cosmetic Dermatologists, is an example of the
prophylactic use of the drug to reduce subsequent
scarring - Favourable safety profile AEs and tolerability
41009 Scar Revision Phase 2 Study Design
- Double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-patient
trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of
200ng per 100?l per linear cm wound margin of
Juvista when administered twice following scar
revision surgery - Trial divided into two groups in order to
evaluate the efficacy of Juvista in two different
scar revision surgical procedures - First group scar excised in one stage (most
common procedure) - Second group scar excised in two stages
- 30 patients (male and female) in each group,
giving a total trial size of 60 patients - First group reports today, second group is fully
recruited and due to report in H2 2008
51009 Scar Revision Study Design Group 1
- Scars excised in one surgical procedure
- 30 patients with linear scars ranging from at
least 5cm to 16cm in length and suitable for
revision by excision and direct closure - one end segment allocated to receive active
treatment - the opposite segment allocated to receive placebo
- middle segment left untreated
- 200ng per 100?l per linear cm wound margin
injected intradermally twice once at time of
surgery immediately following wound closure and
once 24 hours later - Primary assessment based on a photographic
evaluation by a lay panel over a time period from
week 6 to month 7 post surgery using a visual
analogue scale (VAS)

- Primary endpoint was met with statistical

previously studied - Efficacy was demonstrated in larger scars than
previously studied - Favourable safety profile AEs and tolerability

201010 Breast AugmentationPhase 2 Study Design
- Double-blind, within-patient, placebo-controlled
Phase 2 study to investigate the safety and
efficacy of Juvista following bilateral breast
augmentation surgery - Each patient administered 50ng or
200ng/100?L/linear cm of Juvista once
intradermally along both margins of one breast
wound immediately following surgery - 31 patients in 50ng group and 32 patients in
200ng group
211010 Breast AugmentationConclusions
- Trial did not meet its primary endpoint
- assessment of standardised photographs of the
scars by a lay panel 12 months post surgery using
a VAS - Efficacy of Juvista when given once at time of
surgery at 50 or 200ng/100?L/linear cm wound
margin is inadequate in Breast Augmentation - Favourable safety profile AEs and tolerability
22Large Phase 2 Programme provides Significant
Learning Confirming Opportunities
- Optimisation of drug efficacy under different
dosing regimes - Learning about trial design in this new
therapeutic area of scar reduction - To support our claim for a broad general label
- large scar reduction market remains accessible to
Juvista - currently evaluating options
23Juvista Data From Comprehensive Renovo Clinical
Trials Programme Experience for Phase 3
- Dose range established 200ng and 500ng most
efficacious - Dosing at time of surgery after wound closure and
24 hours later best - In patients and volunteers
- In young and old people
- In males and females
- In different skin types/colours
- In short and long scars
- In good and poor scars
- In incisions and excisions
- In different parts of the body
- Early and long term improvement in scar
appearance - Demonstrated by multiple different measures of
scar improvement - Reproducible in similar clinical trials
- With drug substance manufactured at PhIII and
commercial scale
24Juvista Data From Comprehensive Renovo Clinical
Trials Programme Experience for Phase 3
- Safety and Tolerability
- Favourable profile
- AEs
- Tolerability
- Trial Design
- Knowledge of different clinical trial models
- Clinical variation understood in order to power
Phase 3 - Within patient control
-
25Juvista Future Plans
- Renovo plans to commence the first European Phase
3 trial in scar revision surgery in H2 2008 - Likely Phase 3 trial design
- evaluation of two doses of Juvista (200ng and
500ng) - given twice, once at the time of surgery
following wound closure and once 24 hours later - will use appropriately powered sample size
calculated from 1009 - Renovo will provide further guidance on the
design of this trial and the remainder of the
Phase 3 programme following consultation with the
regulatory authorities and Shire
26Rest of Pipeline
- Firm financial position with a net cash position
as at 31 December 2007 of 93.8m - Broad portfolio of drugs with different
mechanisms of action - Zesteem recruiting first Phase 3 trial which is
on track to report in H2 2008 - Prevascar starting Phase 2 trial in nerve repair
this year - Juvidex recently commenced Phase 2 trial in
acceleration of healing - Deep preclinical pipeline
