5 Inspired by nature, clinically validated, scientifically optimized Azora Therapeutics is a Stanford spin - out advancing potential best - in - category therapies inspired by indigo naturalis , a botanical extract with demonstrated clinical benefit in ulcerative colitis but potential systemic safety liabilities AT177 is a fully - synthetic, patented, oral, colon - targeted aryl hydrocarbon receptor ( AhR ) agonist designed to restore mucosal immune homeostasis at the site of disease with minimal systemic exposure to optimize safety Current Status: • Drug scaled, in vivo animal efficacy, target PK/PD in large animals, GLP rat tox completed • FDA Pre - IND feedback received, IND - enabling studies ongoing, IND planned Q2 2027 • Up to $64M potential financing positions Azora into P1b clinical inflection in early 2028

 

6 AT177: Potential best - in - class AhR agonist rationally designed to transform UC Validated in patients with ulcerative colitis: AT177's active moiety indirubin is the same as in indigo naturalis which has demonstrated clinical benefit in UC; AhR mechanism further validated in Phase 3 trials of obefazimod Optimized profile for ulcerative colitis: oral, colon - targeted AT177 is engineered to maximize local AhR activation at the site of disease to improve efficacy while minimizing systemic exposure to limit toxicities Durable IP: composition - of - matter protection to 2043 with potential blocking IP on colon - targeted AhR agonists Market expansion opportunities: AT177 is designed to be combinable with other UC mechanisms. UC proof - of - concept unlocks Crohn’s disease. Financing to clinical PoC: Up to $64M private placement from fundamental biotech specialist investors supports Azora through Phase 1 PoC in UC Current approved therapies for ulcerative colitis (UC) are inadequate due to limited efficacy, secondary loss of response, and systemic safety liabilities

 

7 The future of IBD treatment is oral AT177's mechanism of action is oral, orthogonal to other mechanisms and potentially combinable with approved drugs IBD is a $30B market: even modest improvements in efficacy unlock significant value $30B per year 1 $11B in UC, 5M patients and growing, shift to orals 2, 3 $2 - $6B Individual annual revenue for IBD sales and growing $ 10B market cap after positive UC Phase 3 AhR agonist data with 16.4% placebo - adjusted remission at induction 7 $3 - $11B Acquisitions after positive Phase 1b or Phase 2 Value creation precedents Market opportunity Limitations of existing UC drugs Therapeutic ceiling that does not exceed 30% clinical remission at induction or 40% at maintenance 4 50% of patients with initial benefit lose response 5 10% fail all therapies and require colectomy 6 Systemic drugs: immunosuppression and cancer risk 1) IBD = inflammatory bowel disease global market by 2030 Polaris Market Research, Inflammatory Bowel Disease Treatment Marke t R eport, 2022 - 2030.; 2) Global UC Allied Market Research, "Ulcerative Colitis Market," 2021 3) Global UC patients Le Berre (2023) Lancet 4) Placebo adjusted - Papamichael (2019) Curr Opin Gastroenterol 35(4):302 - 310. 5) Alsoud (2021) Lancet Gastroenterol Hepatol ​ 6(7):589 - 595. 6) 10 - year post - diagnosis colectomy rate.

13 AhR is a validated target: efficacy is driven locally, not systemically 1) DSS colitis model · AhR Δ IEC = mice with AhR deleted selectively in intestinal epithelial cells (immune - cell AhR intact) · I3C = indole - 3 - carbinol, AhR agonist structurally distinct from indigo naturalis , used here to isolate AhR - dependent epithelial function. IN is indigo naturalis . Blocking AhR eliminates benefit of indigo naturalis When epithelial AhR is knocked out in the gut ( AhR Δ IEC ) in a chronic murine colitis model, AhR agonism loses most of its benefit ​ Colon epithelial signaling key to efficacy 1 Tapinarof ( Vtama ® ), a topically - applied AhR agonist approved for psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, achieves its therapeutic effect with trivial systemic exposure Azora’s AT193 topical indirubin program was effective in psoriasis with no quantifiable systemic exposure Local AhR activation sufficient to drive clinical benefit When AhR is knocked out in a murine colitis model, indigo naturalis loses its therapeutic effect Indirubin Placebo Mouse colitis model +/ - AhR agonist (I3C) AhR Δ IEC – no AhR in intestinal epithelium; AhR intact elsewhere Kawai (2017) J Gastroenterol 52(8):904 - 919.

14 AT177 converts into indirubin, the active moiety in indigo naturalis 1) In vitro AhR activation in human liver cell line using luciferase behind CYP1A1 promoter. 2) Azora prodrug scaffold, molecule converts int o indirubin. 3) AhR crystal structure bound to indirubin from Gruszcyzk (2022) Nat Commun 13(1):7010. Indirubin is the most potent AhR agonist in indigo naturalis with sub - nanomolar activity 1 AhR activation in vitro Indirubin Indigo naturalis Indigo AT177 rapidly converts into indirubin in the lumen of the colon and does not require absorption or bacterial enzymes 2 Indirubin directly binds the AhR and is as effective as indigo naturalis in animal models of UC 3

 

15 Oral AT177 is effective in UC models and achieves ~8X more colon AhR signaling than indirubin Local colon AhR signaling AT177 works like indirubin in DSS colitis mouse model with superior in vivo AhR activity Dextra sodium sulfate (DSS) model. Mice treated for 9 days orally with a molar equivalent of indirubin N=5. Colon samples t ake n at 6h after final dose. Similar trends observed with disease activity index ** p<0.01, **** p<0.0001

EC50 – indirubin 50% effective concentration on AhR of 2 ng/g. Colon concentration average of distal, mid and proximal colon levels. Colon to plasma ratio calculated as colon concentration divided by highest average day 1 plasma levels assuming BQL levels are at the lower limit o f q uantification. Cmax of tapinarof in maximum use systemic exposure studies of 0.9 to 1.3 ng/ mL. Cmax of obefazimod reported as 50.21 ng/ml with 50 mg dose under fed conditions Scherrer 2016.

 

18 AT177 was rationally designed to be a potential best - in - class AhR agonist for UC 1. In July ௗ 2025, AllianThera entered into a strategic partnership with Dr. Falk Pharma Azora’s AT177 designed to be h ighly potent, rapidly metabolized, and the most gut - restricted program in development to mitigate possible systemic safety risks Dr. Falk 1 Equillium Abivax Azora X X  D Active moiety has shown benefit in patients   X   High potency AhR agonist X X X  Optimized PK/PD profile for UC X X X  Active moiety is endogenous   X  Colon - targeted formulation supports gut restriction Safety Efficacy

 

19 AT177 is clinically derisked - same active moiety as indigo naturalis with superior control and delivery 1. Indigo naturalis has demonstrated clinical benefit in refractory UC 2. Indigo naturalis efficacy requires AhR signaling in the intestinal epithelium 3. Indirubin is the most potent AhR agonist in indigo naturalis 4. Indirubin alone is effective in murine UC models and in patients with psoriasis 1 5. AT177 rapidly converts into indirubin and drives more colonic AhR signaling compared with the same amount of indirubin 6. AT177 delivers indirubin above the EC 50 in large animals across the entire colon and into the rectum with dramatically lower systemic exposures than other AhR agonists AT177 is derisked and positioned for clinical development 1.
