A clinical-stage specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of innovative transdermal synthetic cannabinoid treatments for patients with high unmet medical needs Cannabidiol Pharmacology In Epilepsy, Osteoarthritis, and Fragile X Syndrome Marcel O. Bonn-Miller, PhD Director of Cannabinoid Research
Cannabis: Medicine Since 2737 BC Listed in the US Pharmacopeia until 1942 74% alcohol 12
Cannabis (sativa, indica, ruderalis) > 100 natural plant-derived cannabinoids Most well known and researched: Δ 9 -tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ 9 -THC): principal psychoactive constituent Cannabidiol (CBD): not euphoric Cannabinoids interact with specific receptors throughout the body to produce pharmacologic effects, mostly in the CNS and immune system. 13
Endocannabinoid System Ancient internal signaling system began evolving 600 million years ago Present in every animal except insects NIMH* (1990) discovers the exact DNA sequence encoding a THC-sensitive receptor in the rat brain Discovery of naturally-occurring transmitters endocannabinoids anandamide (1992) and 2-AG (2-arachidonoylglycerol) (1995) *National Institutes of Mental Health 14
Endocannabinoids Anandamide (N-arachidonoylethanolamine or AEA) 2-AG (2-arachidonoylglycerol) Released in response to excitatory synaptic activity In the CNS: Important in synaptic plasticity, cognitive, motor, sensory, and affective processes Neuroprotective in: Acute and chronic neurodegenerative conditions Neuroinflammatory conditions Modulate inflammatory processes Down regulate stress related signals 15
Endocannabinoid-mediated Signaling in the Nervous System 1 16
CBD Pharmacology 2 Activity at Multiple Receptors May Account for CBD Effects Low affinity for CB 1 /CB 2 receptors Stimulates the release of 2-AG Inhibits anandamide degradation and enhances its signaling 3 Agonist TRPV1 receptor: mediates pain perception/inflammation 5-HT 1A serotonin receptor Decreases depression Anxiolytic Antagonist at GPR55: modulates blood pressure and bone density Activates adenosine A 2A receptor Decreases inflammation Neuroprotection 17
CBD is Effective in a Variety of Acute Seizure Rodent Models 5-8 MES, PTZ, audiogenic seizures, penicillin, pilocarpine, transcorneal electroshock and electrical amygdala kindling Increased seizure threshold, reduced seizure severity and reduced mortality in generalized seizures Efficacy in animal models is highly predictive of efficacy in patients with epilepsy MES, maximal electroshock seizure, PTZ, pentylenetetrazole 18
CBD Effective in Acute In Vivo (Mouse) Models that Map Onto Focal Seizures 9 mes Model (% Seized) 6Hz (32mA) Model (% Seized) P<0.05 P<0.01 Ø P<0.1 P<0.05 P<0.01 CBD (mg/kg) CBD (mg/kg) 19
CBD Pharmacology: Osteoarthritis Recent behavioral and electrophysiological studies have demonstrated that cannabinoids exert anti-nociceptive effects in rodent models of osteoarthritis 10 CBD has been shown to have antihyperalgesic effects through its interaction with TRPV1 receptors 12 CBD activates the adenosine receptor (A 2A ), which has broad anti-inflammatory effects throughout the body 11 By blocking GPR55 signaling, which promotes osteoclast cell function, CBD may act to decrease bone resorption 13 20
Osteoarthritis: Inflammation and Pain 14 CB 2 is a mainly peripheral, immunomodulatory receptor with an important role in pain, inflammation, and physiological defense It attenuates inflammation and decreases injury 21
ZYN002 Significantly Reduces Inflammatory Pain in Rats 15 22
ZYN002 Significantly Reduces Inflammatory Pain in Rats 15 Knee joint circumference (% change) Results Significant reductions in: Swelling of knee joints Immune cell infiltration Spontaneous pain rating scores Dose-dependent reduction of proinflammatory markers in spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia CD11b/c CGRP TNF Paw Withdrawal Latency 23
ZYN002 for Inflammatory Pain (OA and RA) in Rats 15 ZYN002 Gel (mg/day) Plasma Concentrations (ng/ml) 0.6 3.8±1.4 3.1 17.5±4.4 6.2 33.3±9.7 62.3 1629.9±379.0 24
What is Fragile X Syndrome? Fragile X Syndrome Autism spectrum disorder Most common inherited intellectual disability Caused by a mutation in the Fragile X Mental Retardation gene located on the X chromosome Negatively affects synaptic function, plasticity and neuronal connections Results in a spectrum of intellectual disabilities, social anxiety, memory problems Normal Fragile site Fragile X 25
CBD Pharmacology: Fragile X Action Attenuates endocannabinoid signaling Increases 2-AG levels Effect May allow bypass of the FMRP protein deficiency May attenuate/reverse a biological mechanism of abnormal cellular function 16 Interacts with receptors that regulate fear and anxiety 17 5-HT 1A TRPV1 May prove beneficial in patients with FXS TRPV1, Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 26
CBD Effects in Fragile X Syndrome CBD may effectively treat Fragile X Syndrome 19-21 In mouse knock-out model, inhibition of the metabolism of 2-AG improves Fragile X syndrome symptoms Normal CBD inhibits the metabolism of 2-AG and thereby increasing availability to modulate neurotransmitter release Fragile site Fragile X 27
CBD Improves Social Anxiety 23 Change from baseline on Visual Analog Mood Scales (n=12) Anxiety Cognitive Impairment Oral CBD 600 mg Placebo Controls Basal Pretest Adaptation Speech Post-speech Basal Pretest Adaptation Speech Post-speech *P<0.05 versus healthy controls +P<0.05 versus CBD-treated social anxiety patients 28
Summary Cannabidiol acts as agonist or antagonist at diverse array of receptors throughout the body, leading to an opportunity of treating a range of conditions Cannabidiol may modulate the endocannabinoid system Theory and preclinical data combine to support the treatment of focal seizures, osteoarthritis, and Fragile X Syndrome with cannabidiol Translatability of examined animal models and early clinical evidence provide confidence that effects will be observed in humans 29

Epilepsy Characterized by a pathologic and enduring tendency to have epileptic seizures Affects 0.5 to 1% of the population 2.9 million people in the US Overall, 5% of persons report a seizure at some time in their lives (excluding febrile seizures) Incidence rates are highest in childhood, plateau from 15-65 years of age, and rise again among the elderly About 30% of patients with seizures have an identifiable neurologic, genetic or systemic disorder, and the remainder have an unknown cause 45
Co-morbidities Focal Seizure types Generalized Unknown Etiology Genetic Structural Epilepsy types Metabolic Focal Generalized Combined Generalized & Focal Unknown Immune Infectious Epilepsy Syndromes Unknown 46
Focal Epilepsy/Focal Seizures Focal epilepsy occurs when a portion of the brain is/becomes electrically unstable and acts as a point of seizure onset Not a mild form of epilepsy, because once a seizure starts, it can spread to involve much or even all of the brain The most common epilepsy syndrome (affects between 66% and 75% of adults with epilepsy) 47
Evolution of a Focal Seizure Symptoms with retained awareness Impaired awareness Convulsion Seizure After-effects (Post-Ictal) 48
Focal Seizure With Impaired Awareness This happens when the seizure has spread from its starting point, and involves a larger part of the brain The loss of awareness can be very slight, or severe The patient may not remember this time, or may have a memory of a dream-like state There may be a great deal of movement, or none at all-this looks VERY different in different people The patient may or may not fall 49
Focal Seizure With Impaired Awareness Sometimes this will occur with no warning at all This is very dangerous, as the patient cannot prepare themselves or remove themselves from harm s way The patient may do VERY bizarre things, and they have no control over this-this may look like a psychiatric condition Often the brain is exhausted afterwards, leaving the patient confused, disorganized, and potentially aggressive-this can last for minutes to hours 50

Osteoarthritis (OA) A common musculoskeletal condition and long-term chronic disease involving the thinning of cartilage in joints which results in bones rubbing together, creating stiffness, pain, and impaired movement 1 Age-related Associated with multiple risk factors Obesity Lack of exercise Genetic predisposition Bone density Occupational injury Trauma Gender An estimated 31M people receive RX treatment for OA 1. http://www.who.int/medicines/areas/priority_medicines/bp6_12osteo.pdf 72
OA Patient Profile Extremely heterogeneous, from very mild symptoms and no need for medication to severely disabling Generally elderly, female>male, many comorbidities Many therapies have become less attractive over time because of limited efficacy and toxicity (NSAIDs, opioids) Surgery is definitive therapy but there are surprisingly high failure rates (especially knee arthroplasty) and rehabilitation is difficult Significant unmet need 73
OA of the Knee: Old Paradigm Classic peripheral pain syndrome Poor relationship between structural abnormalities and symptoms 1 In population-based studies 2 : o 30-40% of individuals who have grade 3/4 K/L radiographic OA have no symptoms o 10% of individuals with severe pain have normal radiographs We sometimes delude ourselves into thinking that our current therapies are adequate NSAIDs, acetaminophen, and even opioids have small effect sizes 3,4 Arthroplasty does not predictably relieve pain 1. Creamer P et. al. Br J Rheumatol. 1997; 36:726-728.; 2. Creamer P et. al. Arthritis Care Res. 1998;11:60-65.; 3 Bjordal JM et. al. Eur J Pain. 2007;11:125-1238.; 4. Zhang W et. al. Ann Rheum Dis. 2004;63:901-907. 74
OA of the Knee: New Paradigm Two alternate mechanisms are receiving increased attention Inflammation Centralized pain Was considered a non-inflammatory disease until the 1990 s Most OA patients have some low-grade inflammation Characteristics Not as severe as classic autoimmune disorders Clinically important mechanistic feature that best differentiates painful from painless OA Precise rates of inflammation depend on how hard you look (exam < imaging < biopsy) 75
Role of Cannabidiol in OA 76
Mechanisms of CBD Analgesic Action Peripheral CB 2 activation leads to fairly pronounced anti-inflammatory effect May have less effect on nociceptive pain that is not of inflammatory origin Central (presumably mainly via CB 1 ) Dissociative effects reduce: Connectivity between limbic and sensory brain regions The unpleasantness of pain 1 Lee et. al. Pain. 2013;154:124 134 77
Mechanistic Characterization of Pain Any combination may be present in a given individual Peripheral (nociceptive) Peripheral Neuropathic Centralized Pain Inflammation or mechanical damage in tissues NSAID, opioid responsive Responds to procedures Damage or dysfunction of peripheral nerves Responds to both peripheral (NSAIDs, opioids, Na channel blockers) and central (TCA s, neuroactive compounds) drug therapy Characterized by central disturbance in pain processing (diffuse hyperalgesia/allodynia) Responsive to neuroactive compounds altering levels of neurotransmitters involved in pain transmission Classic examples Acute pain due to injury Osteoarthritis Rheumatoid arthritis Cancer pain Classic examples Diabetic neuropathic Mixed Pain States pain Post-herpetic neuralgia Classic examples Fibromyalgia Irritable bowel syndrome TMJD Tension headache 78
Neural Influences on Pain and Sensory Processing Facilitation Substance P Glutamate and EAA Serotonin (5HT 2a, 3a ) Nerve growth factor + Inhibition Descending antinociceptive pathways Norepinephrineserotonin (5HT 1a,b ), dopamine Opioids GABA Cannabinoids - CBD Schmidt-Wilcke T, Clauw DJ. Nat Rev Rheumatol. Jul 19 2011. Clauw DJ. JAMA. 2014. 79
Centralization Continuum Proportion of individuals in chronic pain states that have centralized their pain Peripheral Centralized Acute pain Osteoarthritis SC disease Fibromyalgia RA Ehler s Danlos Tension HA Low back pain TMJD IBS 80
Pragmatic Advice for Using Cannabinoids in 2016 Where possible use a synthetic cannabinoid or cannabinoid extract of consistent and known potency The strongest recommendation based on current benefit:risk data: Use cannabinoids instead of opioids (ie, when all else fails) for centralized pain states Data from US suggest that legalizing cannabis in a state leads to fairly dramatic reductions in opioid overdoses 1 Use with caution in individuals under age 25 1. Bachhuber MA et. al. JAMA Int Med 2014;174(10):1668-1673. 81
Summary The endocannabinoid system is widely distributed in the human body and there is strong biological plausibility that these can be effective and safe analgesics at the right dose and in the right person CBD can exert analgesic effects in the periphery (mainly anti-inflammatory) and CNS (dissociate individuals from the sensory experience of pain) For treatment of clinical pain with cannabinoids most clinical evidence that they are effective in neuropathic and centralized pain. Animal data suggest CBD effectiveness in OA. Clinical trials are ongoing to evaluate efficacy and safety in OA populations 82

Overview of Fragile X Syndrome Steven Siegel, MD PhD Chair Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Keck School of Medicine, USC
Disclosures Consulting Zynerba Research support Astellas, Merck 87
Introduction to Fragile X Syndrome Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited intellectual disability in males and is also a significant cause of intellectual disability in females. Leading mono-genetic cause of mental retardation X-linked disease Incidence of 1:4000 males, 1:8000 females Occurs in all racial and ethnic groups 88
Causes Are Genetic Mutation of Fragile X Mental Retardation One (FMR-1) gene on X chromosome This gene cannot produce protein necessary for normal brain development Most commonly an increase in the number of CGG trinucleotide repeats Typical: 6-44 repeats Premutation: 55-200 repeats Full mutation: > 200 repeats 89
How is Fragile X Diagnosed? DNA test: PCR to identify triplet repeat in FMR1 gene Prenatal testing Amniocentesis Chorionic villus sampling Genetic counseling PCR, polymerase chain reaction 90
Signs and Symptoms Moderate intellectual disability boys (mild for girls) Facial appearance prominent forehead, chin and protruding ears Speech and language delay Behavioral issues such as hyperactivity, temper tantrums, hand flapping, poor eye contact and problems with impulse control Emotional problems and ADHD Eye, orthopedic, heart and skin problems In the premutation carrier: Mild intellectual disability Shy personality and selective lack of speech 91
