12 © 2023 Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. CNS PORTFOLIO Conclusions • TNX - 102 SL reduced pain in fibromyalgia significantly more than placebo (p=0.010) over 14 weeks of treatment • 30% pain responder analysis demonstrated greater responders with TNX - 102 SL at 46.8% than with placebo at 34.9% (p=0.006) • TNX - 102 SL had broad syndromal effects across core fibromyalgia symptoms of widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance, memory disturbance, mood disturbance, and sensory sensitivity • Most common adverse event from active treatment is oral hypoaesthesia, a sensory administration site reaction that is typically transient, never rated as severe , and lead to only 1 discontinuation • TNX - 102 SL was very well tolerated , with the two highest rates of systemic adverse events, sedation and fatigue, both at 3.6% • Only 17.7% of TNX - 102 SL group discontinued early (16.5% on Placebo)
