If successfully developed and approved, Verona Pharma\u2019s product candidate, ensifentrine, has the potential to be the first non-steroidal therapy for the treatment of respiratory diseases that combines bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory activities in one compound. The Company has evaluated nebulized ensifentrine in its Phase 3 clinical program ENHANCE (\u201cEnsifentrine as a Novel inHAled Nebulized COPD thErapy\u201d) for COPD maintenance treatment. Ensifentrine met the primary endpoint in both ENHANCE-1 and ENHANCE-2 trials demonstrating statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in lung function. In addition, ensifentrine substantially reduced the rate and risk of COPD exacerbations in pooled analysis from ENHANCE-1 and ENHANCE-2. In the second quarter of 2023, Verona Pharma submitted a New Drug Application (\u201cNDA\u201d) to the US Food and Drug Administration (\u201cFDA\u201d) for ensifentrine for the maintenance treatment of patients with COPD.\u00a0Two additional formulations of ensifentrine have been evaluated in Phase 2 studies for the treatment of COPD: dry powder inhaler (\u201cDPI\u201d) and pressurized metered-dose inhaler (\u201cpMDI\u201d). Ensifentrine has potential applications in cystic fibrosis, asthma and other respiratory diseases.
