What is a Venous Irregular blood Leg Ulcer? flow Dilated vein Warped valve Valve A Venous Leg Ulcer (VLU) is a wound between Thin wall the knee and ankle that is slow to heal because of Regular of vein blood flow problems with blood flow in the veins Skin protruding Risk factors for VLU include • Previous blood clot in the leg (DVT) • Varicose veins • Obesity • Poor mobility e.g. age, arthritis, surgery 6
The Silent Epidemic of VLU – Major Commercial Opportunity 7
A Potential Game-Changer Least severe (Margolis 0) • VF001 is targeted to help patients whose Compression bandages & ulcers do not heal with standard treatment dressings • Little cost-benefit for more expensive &/or 69% invasive treatments 25% Moderate severity • VF001 is a cost-effective treatment that can 6% (Margolis 1) be used in the community setting – a Unmet clinical need potential game changer Low competition Most severe (Margolis 2) Expensive (grafts, cell therapies) FTT’s TARGET MARKET 8
