9 Essential3 is the First Successful Program in Essential Tremor Several important clinical questions answered Hypothesis 1 Study 1 Parallel-group design (PD) Hypothesis 2 Study 2 Blinded Stable-responder, randomized withdrawal design (RW) Hypothesis 3 Studies 1+2 Ulixa / Study 1 PBO Hypothesis 4 Study 2 Ulixa / Study 1 PBO How do patients compare between ulixacaltamide and placebo after 56 days of intervention in the PD study? For patients exposed to ulixacaltamide in the RW study who improved by at least 3 points in the mADL11 scale, which proportion maintains response after randomization staying on ulixacaltamide compared to placebo? How does the combined group of patients receiving ulixacaltamide in both studies (PD and RW) compare to placebo patients from the PD study after 56 days of intervention? How do patients receiving ulixacaltamide in the RW study compare to placebo patients from the PD study after 56 days of intervention?


 
10 Essential3: An ambitious and innovative Phase 3 program Blinded randomization 2:1 (Study 1: Study 2) occurred following completion of screening Blinded randomization 1:1 (Ulixacaltamide: Placebo) for treatment arm allocation in Study 1 and for treatment arm allocation of Responders into the randomized withdrawal phase in Study 2 STUDY 1: PLACEBO-CONTROLLED PARALLEL GROUP STUDY Ulixacaltamide n=199 (mITT) Placebo n=233 (mITT) STUDY 2: RANDOMIZED-WITHDRAWAL STUDY Ulixacaltamide n=147 Randomization of Responders N=80 Ulixacaltamide n=40 Placebo n=40 BLINDED LEAD-IN 8 WEEKS RW: 4 WEEKS 12 WEEKS R 2:1 N = 473 Randomized N = 238 Randomized R 1:1


 
11 Essential3 Study 1 – Parallel design All efficacy analyses use the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population defined as all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had at least one post-baseline efficacy assessment. Hypothesis 1 Study 1 Parallel-group design How do patients compare between ulixacaltamide and placebo after 56 days of intervention in the PD study? Study 1: Placebo-controlled Parallel Group Study Ulixacaltamide n=199 Placebo n=233 Primary Endpoint: • mADL11 change from baseline to Day 56 Key Secondary Endpoints: • Rate of disease improvement (slope of mADL11 change) through Day 84 • PGI-C at Day 56 • CGI-S at Day 56

13 Study 1 - Primary and all key secondary efficacy endpoints met -4.3 -1.7 p < 0.0001 ULIXACALTAMIDE (n=199) PLACEBO (n=233) LS means for the mADL11 were estimated using a mixed model for repeated measures with treatment group, visit (categorical), treatment-by-visit interaction, randomization strata (IT status, propranolol use, family history of ET), and baseline mADL11 score as fixed effects; subject was a random effect with an unstructured covariance matrix. Sensitivity to missingness was done with a pre-specified delta-adjusted tipping-point analysis which remained statistically significant at the maximum pre-specified shift (Δ = 2.5; p = 0.0026), exceeding the ~½ SD robustness criterion of Ratitch et al. (2013) and confirming strong resilience of the primary endpoint to non- MAR assumptions. Primary Endpoint mADL11 CFB to Day 56

16 Essential3 Study 2 – Randomized Withdrawal design All efficacy analyses use the modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population defined as all randomized responders who received at least one dose of study drug during the randomized withdrawal phase and had at least one post-RW baseline efficacy assessment. Primary Endpoint: • The proportion of participants that maintain response, as defined by change in mADL11 score, following randomized withdrawal Key Secondary Endpoints: • Rate of disease improvement (slope of mADL11 change) from Day 56 through Day 84 • PGI-C at Day 84 • Change in CGI-S from Day 56 to Day 84 Ulixacaltamide n=147 Randomization of Responders N=80 Ulixacaltamide n=40 Placebo n=40 BLINDED LEAD-IN 8 WEEKS RW: 4 WEEKS Hypothesis 2 Blinded stable-responder, randomized withdrawal design For patients exposed to ulixacaltamide in the RW study who improved by at least 3 points in the mADL11 scale, which proportion maintains response after randomization staying on ulixacaltamide compared to placebo?
