US SALES FORECAST FOR TRAVELAN®: IF APPROVED AS DRUG TO PREVENT TD
==> picture [55 x 53] intentionally omitted <==
MARKET POTENTIAL FOR TRAVELAN® SALES:
Market potential figure derived from:
2014 figures of US citizens traveling to high risk destinations for TD (44.3 million)[1] and obtaining pretravel advice (22.2 million)[2] . Sources of pre-travel advice include primary care provider, travel medicine specialist, company doctors, pharmacist, and travel agencies[2] . Our forecast utilizes a very conservative estimate for % of US citizens purchasing Travelan® after seeking pre-travel advice.

THE UNMET NEED
==> picture [55 x 53] intentionally omitted <==
-
Current standard of care for C. difficile includes vancomycin, metronidazole & fidaxomicin
-
-
Therapies plagued by significant CDI recurrences ( 1st relapse: 25%; 2nd: 40%; 3rd: 60%) underscoring need for new treatments
-
Growing resistance to vancomycin treatment
-
Some treatments are administered intravenously rather than via the gut where C. difficile resides
