Over 50 publications support the therapeutic potential of IL-6 pathway inhibition in TED • 350+ mostly steroid- refractory patients • Late IL-6 inhibition (>9 months post symptom onset) when disease may have exited active phase • Exposure to IL-6 inhibition may have been suboptimal (<6 months) • Tourmaline market research with over 100 TED treaters suggests many HCPs already routinely utilize IL-6 inhibition in their practice We believe many of these reports may underestimate the true efficacy of IL-6 inhibition Proptosis response rate is generally defined in the data outlined here as a ≥2 mm proptosis improvement in the worse eye at baseline without any worsening in the other eye. CAS response rate is generally defined in the data outlined here as a CAS of 0 or 1.

Cardiovascular Inflammation


 
Pacibekitug could address a critical but poorly-addressed risk factor in cardiovascular diseases 22 IL-6 driven inflammation has increasingly been validated as a critical modifiable risk factor driving residual cardiovascular risk The potential of IL-6 inhibition spans a broad range of cardiovascular indications, affecting tens of millions of patients globally Pacibekitug’s potentially best-in-class profile, including quarterly subcutaneous administration, is being evaluated in the Phase 2 TRANQUILITY study and is anticipated to be Phase 3-ready in 2025 Converging lines of human evidence across multiple settings support the transformative potential of IL- 6 inhibition IL-6 inhibition is being evaluated in multiple cardiovascular outcomes trials, and Tourmaline is well- positioned to capitalize on emerging clinical enthusiasm

ASCVD: atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, RA: rheumatoid arthritis, SLE: systemic lupus erythematosus, CD: Crohn’s disease. The PK and PK/PD models for pacibekitug were developed based on the data from 5 clinical studies (two phase 1 studies in healthy volunteers, one phase 1 study in RA, one phase 2 study in SLE, and one phase 2 study in CD). A two-compartment model with first-order absorption and linear elimination and a mechanism-based indirect response model (in a relationship on CRP) adequately described the PK and PK/PD relationships, respectively. Simulations were performed assuming an RA-like population with baseline CRP >2 mg/L to 10 mg/L. Results at Day 90 are shown. 1Ridker et al., Lancet (2021). 2Chertow, Nature (2024). Results after 12 weeks of treatment are shown. Certain data in this slide are based on a cross-trial comparison and are not based on head-to-head clinical trials.
