### **Now Available: A New Path for No-Option CLI**

##### For those facing critical limb threatening ischemia (CLI) with no other treatment options, VesCell offers hope.

##### This investigational autologous stem cell therapy is designed to improve blood flow in the lower legs and feet, heal ulcers, and reduce the risk of amputation and mortality.

##### Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a subset of Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).

##### Backed by Phase II clinical trial data, VesCell is an investigation treatment for patients with severe CLI.

###### What does “No option” mean?

“No option” patients are those without suitable surgical revascularization options, and often face major amputations, or severe morbidity (Angina, or Cardiomyopethy).

###### What are the signs of Critical Limb Ischemia?

Symptoms of peripheral arterial disease, pain while at rest, or gangrene.

### Re-Examination of Phase II ACP NO-CLI Trial Data

###### Re-examination of patients who presented with Wound Ulcers before administration of ACP-01 (21 Treatment, 8 Placebo) 

- ###### **96.7% Ulcer Size Reduction**

###### Ulcer size in the treated group decreased from a mean of 1.46 cm2 to 0.48 mm2 (p = 0.01) by 3 months

- ###### **Amputation Rate Reduction**

###### 93.5% of treated patients saved limbs, compared to 90.5% placebo patients lost their their limb from amputation in the Phase 2 study.

- ###### **4.8% Mortality Rate Reduction**

###### VesCell reduced mortality to 4.8% compared to 12.5% in the placebo group at one year.

###### Further studies, more appropriately powered, are warrented.

###### *VesCell is investigational and not FDA-approved.  Safety and efficacy have not been established.*

Abstract

Introduction: Critical limb ischemia has a prevalence in the US of 1.33%, with mortality 15-20% and major amputation 10-40% per year. Stem cell treatment has emerged as a treatment option for the 45% of patients for whom revascularization procedures are not possible.

Objective: This study re-examines the data of the Phase II clinical treatment of no option Critical limb ischemia with Hemostemix’ angiogenic cell precursors, focusing upon ulcer wound healing, amputation and death rate of this cohort.

Methods: Primary endpoints were changes in ulcer size and major amputation or death within one year of treatment. The secondary endpoint was change in pain level.

Results: From 2015 to 2021, 67 patients with no option Critical limb ischemia were allocated to treatment with ACP-01 (46/67) or placebo (21/67). From this data, only patients who presented with wound ulcers before administration of ACP-01 were reviewed (21 treatment, 8 placebo). Ulcer size in the treated group decreased from a mean of 1.46 cm2 to 0.48 mm2 (p = 0.01) by 3 months. There was no significant decrease in the size of the ulcers of the placebo group (p < 0.54). At one year there were no complications related to treatment. The treatment group had one amputation (4.8%) and one death (4.8%); the placebo group had 2 amputations (25%) and 1 death (12.5%). Change in pain was not significant in either group at 3 months, but at 1 year was improved in the placebo group (p = 0.01).

Conclusion: The administration of ACP-01 within a program of careful patient follow up is safe and associated with reduced ulcer size and decreased rate of amputation and death. Consideration should be given to re-administration of stem cell treatments every 3-6 months to optimize improvement of Critical limb ischemia. Further studies, more appropriately powered, are warranted.
