BioStratum Incorporated

BioStratum is focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel therapeutic agents for the treatment of diabetes and diabetic complications. BioStratum's pipeline is led by Pyridorin™ a small molecule drug for the treatment of diabetic kidney disease, followed by pre-clinical compounds that will treat other diabetic complications and cancer. Pyridorin has been granted Fast Track status by the FDA and has been shown to be safe and potentially effective in treating diabetic patients with kidney disease. In our recently completed Phase II studies, Pyridorin decreased in a statistically significant manner the rate of rise in serum creatinine, a leading indicator of diabetic kidney disease progression. We believe these results validate BioStratum's approach to treating diabetic complications by inhibiting the formation of harmful advanced glycation endproducts or "AGEs", and support the aggressive ongoing campaign to identify and develop second-generation AGE inhibitors
