+Added: Clinicians have the flexibility to individualize OA knee pain treatment with either ZILRETTA or a drug-free nerve block with iovera° based on patient factors and preference, physician training, site of care and reimbursement considerations.
+Added: The HCAd Platform
+Added: Our proprietary HCAd vector platform solves many of the challenges in the field of genetic medicine that have prevented its utilization in treating common diseases like OA.
+Added: Key features include:
+Added: • The HCAd vector is much more efficient at delivering genes into cells compared to many other gene therapies that rely on adenovirus associated virus, or AAV, vectors.
+Added: As a result, the desired effect can be achieved with much smaller doses;
+Added: • The vector used in the HCAd platform can carry up to 30,000 base pairs of DNA, which enables gene therapy with multiple or larger genes compared to AAV vectors;
+Added: • Genetic medicines based on the HCAd platform can be administered locally and have the potential for redosing at therapeutically appropriate intervals.
+Added: Lower dose levels and efficient delivery of genes into cells means that thousands of doses can be produced in a single batch.
+Added: As a result, any therapies built on the HCAd platform are expected to have a commercially attractive and viable cost of goods profile.
Clinical Development Programs
−Removed: PCRX-201 (enekinragene inzadenovec) is our novel gene therapy in clinical development as a treatment for osteoarthritis of the knee.
−Removed: Its innovative high-capacity adenovirus, or HCAD, design, manufacturing process, and local administration may solve many of the challenges that have made gene therapy inaccessible for common diseases like osteoarthritis.
−Removed: Key features that support the use of PCRX-201 for a prevalent disease:
−Removed: • The HCAD viral vector is more efficient at delivering genes into cells than other vectors, which means we can achieve the desired effect with smaller doses.
−Removed: • PCRX-201 is delivered where it matters—it is injected locally into the knee joint capsule and contained there for a favorable clinical and safety profile, whereas if administered systemically, a much higher dose would be needed to reach the knee and achieve the desired effect.
−Removed: • Smaller doses, local administration, and scalable manufacturing result in an attractive cost of goods profile versus other gene therapies.
−Removed: After injection, the HCAD vector enters joint cells and turns them into factories to boost cellular IL-1Ra production, which blocks IL-1 pathway activation to reduce inflammation and pain in the knee.
+Added: PCRX-201 is the lead program from our HCAd platform and we believe it underscores its promise for treating common diseases given its encouraging data in OA.
+Added: PCRX-201 is targeting the IL-1 pathway, which triggers inflammation in response to pathogens and cellular stress.
+Added: IL-1Ra is a core regulator of this pathway and helps to keep inflammation in balance by turning off the IL-1 pathway when it’s not needed.
+Added: As people get older, their bodies have a more challenging time maintaining that balance resulting in chronic IL1-driven inflammation that eventually causes joint damage and pain.
+Added: After injection of PCRX-201, the HCAd vector enters joint cells and turns them into factories to boost cellular IL-1Ra production, which blocks IL-1 pathway activation to reduce inflammation and pain in the knee.
PCRX-201 uses an inflammation-responsive promoter to only produce IL-1Ra when needed, mimicking how the body naturally responds to inflammation.

In February 2024, the FDA granted PCRX-201 a Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy, or RMAT, designation.
Established under the 21 st Century Cures Act, RMAT designation is a dedicated program designed to expedite the development and review processes for promising therapies, including genetic therapies, that are intended to treat, modify, reverse or cure a serious or life-threatening disease or condition, and for which preliminary clinical evidence indicates that the drug or therapy has the potential to address an unmet medical need.
+Added: RMAT designation provides the benefits of intensive FDA guidance on efficient drug development, including the ability for early interactions with the FDA to discuss surrogate or intermediate endpoints, potential ways to support accelerated approval and satisfy post-approval requirements, potential priority review of the Biologics License Application and other opportunities to expedite development and review.
PCRX-201 is the first gene therapy product candidate to receive RMAT designation for OA.
+Added: PCRX-201 was also granted Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMP) designation by the European Medicines Agency in May 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates
−Removed: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination and is subject to impairment testing at least annually or upon the occurrence of a triggering event that could indicate a potential impairment.
−Removed: We have historically tested goodwill for impairment by performing a qualitative assessment in order to determine whether facts and circumstances support a determination that reporting unit fair values are greater than their carrying values.
−Removed: This has historically been performed using readily available market data and company-specific factors.
−Removed: If we determine that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company is less than its carrying value, a quantitative test is required.
−Removed: This is performed by comparing the fair value of the Company with its carrying value.
−Removed: If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount of the reporting unit, impairment is indicated, requiring recognition of a goodwill impairment charge up to the carrying value of goodwill.
−Removed: The fair value of the Company was calculated through an income approach.
−Removed: Under the income approach, we calculate the fair value based on the present value of estimated future cash flows.
−Removed: Considerable management judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes and to estimate the future cash flows used to assume fair value.
−Removed: Our estimates of future cash flows consider past performance, current and anticipated market conditions and internal projections and operating plans which incorporate estimates for sales growth and future margins.
−Removed: Additional assumptions include forecasted growth rates, estimated discount rates and the probability of success for our product pipeline candidate products.
−Removed: We believe such assumptions also reflect current and anticipated market conditions and are consistent with those that would be used by other marketplace participants for similar valuation purposes.
−Removed: Such assumptions are subject to change due to changing economic and competitive conditions.
−Removed: For more information, see Note 7, Goodwill and Intangible Assets , to our condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.
