## What Lipella Pharmaceuticals does

Lipella Pharmaceuticals Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company, incorporated in Delaware in February 2005, that develops new drugs by reformulating the active agents in existing generic drugs. Its strategy aims to combine the cost efficiencies of generic drugs with potential patent protection for its proprietary formulations, with a focus on diseases that have significant unaddressed morbidity and mortality and no approved drug therapy. The company has not yet commercialized any products. Its lead candidate, LP-10, is a reformulation of tacrolimus delivered to the bladder lumen using its metastable liposome drug delivery platform, for hemorrhagic cystitis, a complication of certain chemotherapies or pelvic radiation therapy. LP-310 is an oral liposomal tacrolimus formulation for oral lichen planus, an autoimmune oral mucosal disease, and began a Phase 2a dose-escalation trial in 2024. LP-410, an oral rinse for oral graft-versus-host disease, received orphan designation for tacrolimus in that indication on November 11, 2023. The text notes there is no FDA-approved local drug treatment for oral GVHD.

| Product or program | What it is | Stage |
|---|---|---|
| LP-10 | Tacrolimus reformulation for topical delivery to the bladder for hemorrhagic cystitis | Phase 2a; summary results reported in the first quarter of 2023 |
| LP-310 | Oral liposomal tacrolimus for oral lichen planus | Phase 2a dose-escalation trial started in 2024 |
| LP-410 | Oral liposomal tacrolimus rinse for oral graft-versus-host disease | Orphan designation granted November 11, 2023; IND approval received |
