Acer Therapeutics is a biotech company, headquartered in Cambridge, MA, that develops repurposed and reformulated medicines for the treatment of ultra-orphan diseases with significant unmet medical needs. Acer`s lead candidate, EDVISO™ (celiprolol), is the first pharmaceutical therapy seeking approval for patients with vascular-type Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS). Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a group of hereditary disorders of connective tissue with no ethnic predisposition. vEDS is a subtype characterized by severe arterial dissections, ruptures and early death. Complications are rare in childhood, but affect 25% of patients before the age of 20, and 80% by the age of 40. Median age of death is estimated to be around 50 years. Patients are diagnosed by clinical symptoms and confirmed by presence of mutations in the COL3A1 gene. There are approximately 2,000 documented patients, but prevalence could be as high as 5,000 patients in the U.S. (Pepin 2014). There are no specific pharmacological treatments for vEDS and medical intervention centers on symptomatic treatment, prophylactic measures and genetic counseling. Acer was awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA in January 2015. Acer`s second candidate, ACER-001, is the first pharmaceutical therapy being developed for patients with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD). MSUD is a devastating genetic disease – an inborn error of amino acid metabolism. Approximately 800 patients suffer from MSUD in the U.S. and 3,000 worldwide. There are no therapeutic options for MSUD and diet is not enough. Despite careful dietary management, the majority of MSUD patients have chronic neurological and social impairment, as well as life-threatening episodes of intoxication. Acer was awarded orphan drug designation by the FDA in August 2014.

Imprimis Pharmaceuticals is a pharmaceutical company dedicated to delivering high quality and innovative medicines to physicians and patients at affordable prices. We are pioneering a new commercial pathway in the pharmaceutical industry, using compounding pharmacies for the formulation and distribution of high quality, proprietary formulations that are supported by the clinical experience of physicians and their patients. We are focused on ophthalmology and urology drug therapies; however we also sell other formulations outside of our core ophthalmology and urology therapeutic areas. All of our innovative drug formulations are born from the clinical experience of physician prescribers and pharmacist formulators. We believe our unique business model provides us with the opportunity to address unmet patient needs while delivering safe, near-term and affordable medical solutions to Americans. We have made tremendous progress since the launch of our ophthalmology business and our Go Dropless™ educational campaign in April 2014. Our ophthalmology business is disrupting the billion dollar eye drop market as physicians are adopting Dropless Therapy™ for their patients. We recently announced the availability of our LessDrops™ proprietary topical combination eye drops for post LASIK and other ocular surgeries. During first quarter 2015, we launched our urology business, entering the multi-billion dollar interstitial cystitis (IC) market. In connection with our urology launch, we will commercialize our patented Hep-Lido-A formulation and promote the Defeat IC™ educational campaign focused on medical practitioners and the estimated ten million women and men in the U.S. chronically affected by IC and PBS. We are committed to customer relations, highest quality standards, accessible innovation and solving the unmet needs in the markets we serve. We are delivering on the promise of our unique model and look forward to continuing to serve the needs of our customers with additional novel drug therapies in our product portfolio, and in turn grow our business. Our hope is that through the success of our business we will reduce healthcare costs and provide Americans access to high quality, novel and previously unavailable medicines.
