Landos Biopharma is Singularly Focused on Advancing NX-13 Clinical Development in UC NASDAQ: LABP Potentially transformative oral, once-daily therapy for moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) Addresses multiple causes of UC through novel, bimodal MOA targeting NLRX1 Promising safety profile and early signals of clinical improvement in Phase 1b study NEXUS Phase 2 proof of concept trial initiated Q2 2023; Top-line results expected Q4 2024 NX-13 Experienced management team with significant gastroenterology, immunology and drug development expertise Strong IP position Significant optionality portfolio-wide for partnerships, development & investment Capital efficient with sufficient cash to fund planned operations into first half of 2025


Slide 4

NX-13 Unique Bimodal MOA Targets NLRX1 Pathways for Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) Leber et al. J Immunology 2019 NX-13 is an oral, once-daily therapy being developed for moderate to severe UC Novel NLRX1 agonist Bimodal MOA aims to reduce reactive oxygen species intracellularly and inflammatory pathways extracellularly to reduce UC symptoms and flares NLRX1: the NEXUS of Immunometabolism mitochondrial-associated anti-inflammatory NOD-like receptor (NLR) Direct metabolic role in mitochondria Direct anti-inflammatory role as NLR NX-13 NLRX1


Slide 5

Therapeutic Challenges Present Large Unmet Need for UC Patients Active UC Induction Therapy to reach clinical/endoscopic remission Maintenance Therapy to maintain clinical and endoscopic remission Insufficient response Relapse Ulcerative Colitis Chronic colonic inflammation with rectal bleeding and diarrhea Patients experience relapsing (flares) and remitting episodes of disease severity Therapeutic Goals induce and maintain steroid-free symptom relief healing of colon lining improved quality of life Therapeutic Challenges Limited Efficacy: many patients do not respond or lose response to treatment Safety Risks: infections, cancer, blood clots or cardiac events


Slide 6

Current Therapies Focus Exclusively on Extracellular Actions or Signals Falling Short of Effectively Treating a Multifactorial Disease Like UC Global Data Report GDHC271PIDR; Chi, Cell & Mol Immuno 2022 Drug Classes MOA Extracellular (External) Intracellular (Internal) Environment Drug Classes MOA Cytokines Specific Cells Intracellular (Internal) Environment NX-13 Bimodal targeting (Immunometabolism) Reduce intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) & extracellular immune response    Anti-Inflammatory / Immunosuppressants Reduce entire immune response X X Anti-TNFs, Anti-ILs Block cytokine binding X Anti-integrins Inhibit entrance of immune cells to the gut tissue from the circulation X S1P modulators Inhibit exit of immune cells from immune organs to circulation & gut X JAK Inhibitors Block cytokine cascades (TNF, IL-17, IFN, etc) X X


Slide 7

Immune Function is Intimately Tied to the Intracellular Environment of Processing & Using Energy The intracellular immunometabolic state (the processing & using of energy through glycolysis or mitochondrial metabolism) provides a baseline, and can affect cellular response as pro- or anti-inflammatory Many proteins, molecules & substrates have dual action on cellular metabolism AND immune function The underlying intracellular (internal) immunometabolic environment can affect the response of multiple cells involved in UC and gut homeostasis (including T cells, antigen presenting cells, and epithelial cells) O’Neill et al,. Nat Rev Immunol 2016; Chi, Cell & Mol Immuno 2022 Pro-inflammatory cells use glycolysis to generate energy and biosynthetic intermediates fast Anti-inflammatory cells use mitochondria to supply steady energy to maintain tolerance over time Glycolysis favors pro-inflammatory actions Extracellular Inflammatory Cells & Cytokines Mitochondrial metabolism favors anti-inflammatory actions Pro-inflammatory or Anti-inflammatory response Cytokines Microbiome Other cells


Slide 8

The Role of Immunometabolism in Immunology & UC Immunometabolic response in inflammatory diseases in the immunology universe & UC: Abnormal or imbalanced immune activation of the response resulting in over abundance of pro-inflammatory cells & cytokines with lack of anti-inflammatory control. In UC, Pathogens cross the damaged epithelial barrier, activating immune response ​ Immune activation is energetically costly, requiring the cell to use fast & inefficient glycolytic metabolism. Multiple Factors contribute to the UC Inflammation Cycle: Low grade Mucosal Inflammation and microbiome dysbiosis Epithelial Cell Damage and barrier disruption Broad Immune Activation favoring pro-inflammatory cells and cytokines Global Data Report GDHC271PIDR, Ungaro, et al., Lancet 2017; Chi, Cell & Mol Immuno 2022 The UC Inflammation Cycle Immune Imbalance Epithelial Disruption Mucosal Inflammation Anti-Inflammatory Pro-Inflammatory


Slide 9

Bimodal Targeting of the Intracellular Environment & Extracellular Inflammatory Response Aims to Control Multiple Factors in the UC Inflammation Cycle O’Neill et al. Nat. Rev. Immunol. 2016; Bittencourt et al. Inflammm Bowel Dis 2021; Chi, Cell & Mol Immuno 2022; ROS: Reactive Oxygen Species Metabolic State Extracellular signals are balanced in response to stimuli Pro-inflammatory cells use glycolysis to generate energy fast Anti-inflammatory cells use mitochondria to supply steady energy; control ROS generation Intracellular immunometabolic environment favors inflammatory cells Increased glycolysis promotes pro-inflammatory cells and cytokine release Intracellular immunometabolic environment favors balance Extracellular signals are inflammatory Maintenance of tight junctions and barrier Loss of epithelial cell health, tight junctions & barrier integrity Healthy Ulcerative Colitis Inflammation Healthy Dying cell Mucus layer Epithelium Mitochondrial deficiencies reduce anti-inflammatory cells; ROS accumulate


Slide 10

NX-13 Bimodal MOA Addresses Both Extracellular Signals and Intracellular Environment to Reduce UC Inflammation Cycle Leber et al. J Immunology 2019; Leber et al. Front. Immuno 2018 Broad immune balance disfavors pro-inflammatory cells and cytokines with enhanced anti-inflammatory control Improved epithelial barrier integrity to reduce exposure to inflammatory microbes Decreased low grade mucosal inflammation and microbiome dysbiosis NX-13 is designed to shift the underlying intracellular immunometabolic environment of immune cells: Increases mitochondrial metabolism Upregulates antioxidant enzymes Decrease ROS Decreases Inflammasome activation NX-13 is designed to modulate the extracellular response: Reduces inflammatory cell differentiation Reduces TNFα, IFNγ, IL-17, IL-1. Increases anti-inflammatory activation NX13 ROS Oxidative Metabolism Glycolysis Ros Anti-inflammatory genes Pro inflammatory genes NLRX1


Slide 11
