About CMTX-101
CMTX-101 is an investigational, immune-enabling antibody therapy for chronic respiratory diseases. The therapy is designed to rapidly destroy the pro-inflammatory structure of bacterial biofilms to undermine extracellular bacterial defenses and enable more effective immune and antibiotic intervention. Because the target is universally present across bacterial biofilms, the approach can be employed to treat a wide range of biofilm-driven respiratory infections, with the goal of dramatically reducing inflammation and preventing progressive lung function decline. CMTX-101 is currently in a Phase 2 study in cystic fibrosis, with opportunities to expand to other chronic respiratory diseases including nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease, non-CF bronchiectasis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

About Clarametyx Biosciences
Clarametyx Biosciences is combating the formidable challenge of chronic respiratory diseases through an innovative technology platform targeting the biofilm—a protective layer around bacteria that drives inflammation and disease exacerbation. The Columbus, Ohio-based company is building a pipeline of immune-enabling therapies and vaccines, including CMTX-101, which is in a Phase 2 study for cystic fibrosis-related, biofilm-driven infections, and CMTX-301, which is in preclinical development.

Clarametyx Expanded Access Policy

Clarametyx Biosciences is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company committed to developing novel immune-enabling therapies for serious or difficult-to-treat respiratory diseases.

“Expanded access” refers to use of an investigational drug outside of a clinical trial, where the use of the drug is for treatment, rather than gathering data in support of a marketing application.

The main goal of ongoing clinical trials for our investigational agent, CMTX-101, is to gain information about the drug’s safety and efficacy to submit an application to Health Authorities in support of approval to market CMTX-101. For this reason, Clarametyx believes that direct enrollment in a clinical trial is the preferred route of access to a drug, for which we are continuing to develop data on safety, efficacy and tolerability. We believe expanded access outside of a clinical trial may interfere with the conduct of ongoing trials and may disrupt the progress of our development programs, which could potentially delay access to other patients in need.

For this reason, Clarametyx is not making its investigational drugs available on an expanded access basis at the present time. We plan to re-evaluate this policy in the future as additional information becomes available from ongoing clinical trials.

If you have any questions about this policy or would like information about how to participate in our clinical studies, please contact us at info@clarametyx.com. More information on our ongoing clinical trial is available at ClinicalTrials.gov (http://www.clinicaltrials.govNCT06159725).

As authorized by the 21st Century Cures Act, Clarametyx may revise this expanded access policy at any time.
