1 IAI INTRA-ABDOMINAL INFECTION APPLICATION Investigational Use. Not available for Sale in the United States.

2 Content UNYVERO IAI APPLICATION The Unyvero IAI Application is a high-quality tool to detect pathogens (bacteria and fungi), toxins, and antibiotic resistance markers in severe intra-abdominal infections. The Unyvero IAI Cartridge analyzes simultaneously in one patient sample over 100 DNA targets. In a few hours, specific analytes for resistance markers, pathogens, toxins and also a Universal Bacteria primer are assayed. Intra-abdominal infections are associated with unmet medical needs. The Unyvero approach helps to make informed treatment decisions at an earlier stage.

3 Improving treatment of patients with acute abdomen, including peritonitis, acute pancreatitis and megacolon requires rapid pathogen identification. INTRA-ABDOMINAL INFECTION INTRA-ABDOMINAL INFECTION Second Most Common Cause of Mortality From Infections in Intensive Care Intra-abdominal infections (IAI), associated with abdominal cavity exudations, elicit within the peritoneum complex inflammatory responses to microorganisms and their toxins. IAI is the second most common type of infections in patients with severe sepsis and ranks second as cause of death in US intensive care units. In addition, complicated IAIs, with a yearly incidence rate of 300,000 cases in the US, present a significant burden to health care systems. Intra-abdominal infections are classified as: > community-acquired intra-abdominal infection (CA-IAI) > healthcare-acquired intra-abdominal infection (HA-IAI) The acute abdomen, a case of emergency, often caused by severe infections and necessitate timely medical attention. Sources of infections are mostly the appendix, gall bladder, or are associated with colon or gastro-duodenal perforations, or diverticulitis. 4 Investigational Use. Not available for Sale in the United States. 5

4 Antibiotic Resistances are Increasing ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE Get the Better of a Serious Problem by Early Identification The medical challenge of today is to treat complex IAI infections that are due to multiple pathogens, together with the significant risk of complications. Therefore, in cases of nosocomial intra-abdominal infections, the first choice of antimicrobial treatment is of major importance. According to various publications, unsuitable antimicrobial therapy seems to be linked to longer inpatient residence and higher fatality rates. An increasing resistance to Gram negative pathogens, which are responsible for serious nosocomial infections, e.g. intra-abdominal infections such as: > ß-lactam resistance Enterobacteriacea > carbapenem resistance Enterobacteriacea > MDR P. aeruginosa is the result of an increasing acquisition of resistance genes worldwide. The global alliance to optimize rational use of antimicrobials for intra-abdominal infections (AGORA) recommended: An optimal antimicrobial approach to treating IAI involves a delicate balance between the optimization of empiric therapy, which improves clinical outcomes, and the reduction of excessive antimicrobial use that increases the rate of emergence of antimicrobial-resistant strains. Early pathogen and antibiotic resistance gene identification with rapid molecular tests may overcome those problems. 6 Investigational Use. Not available for Sale in the United States. 7

8 native symple types Bile Ascites WIDE RANGE OF Native SAMPLE TYPES Overcoming challenges in diagnosing IAI Peritoneal fluid Tissue biopsy samples from blood culture bottles Swabs Intra-abdominal infections include a wide range of clinical pictures ranging from infections of the peritoneum, pancreas and colon, requiring the testing of many different and complex sample types, of various natures and qualities. The Unyvero IAI application improves the identification of pathogens and resistance genes in acute bacterial infections of the abdomen, and uniquely combines it with the detection of toxin markers in one test. It facilitates testing of ascites- and peritoneal fluid, pancreatic juice, as well as bile. Additionally, it handles e.g. catheter tips and drainage fluid, swabs tissue, and samples from positive flagged blood cultures. Compared to traditional IAI diagnostic measures, which are laborious and time consuming based on growing cultures and microscopy, multiple closely related nonpathogenic organisms, prior medication, and the number of involved pathogens no longer pose a problem. Drainage fluid 14 Investigational Use. Not available for Sale in the United States. 15

9 established technologies in a new format The Unyvero IAI Application combines all analytical steps in one closed test format, thus reducing the work involved for testing. Only a few simple manual steps allow simultaneous detection of various microorganisms, toxins, and antibioticresistance markers simultaneously in native patient samples and samples from positive flagged blood cultures within approximately five hours. DIVERSITY HIGHLY SPECIFIC MULTIPLEX PCR and FAST ARRAY-BASED DETECTION Pathogen DNA Specific Amplification Specific Target Hybridization Detection and Specific Control Sample Types Sample Quality One of Curetis core competencies is the design of reliable > liquid > samples cultured in blood culture bottles > tissue... Curetis proprietary and universal sample preparation technology prepares DNA from any native clinical sample type without losing time needed for preculturing. Because of its universal applicability The Curetis technology can use a single sample preparation protocol for many different sample types Of any clinical application bio-assays in self-contained cartridges to enable sensitive multiplex testing. The required multiplex grade is achieved by combining the unmatched sample preparation and PCR technology with a proprietary detection array. Endpoint- PCR can deliver higher multiplex grades than most other amplification methods, and in that respect holds clear advantages over e.g. real-time PCR. The array was optimized for hybridization times to only a few minutes compared to standard arrays. To enhance specificity, the dissociation kinetics of the array hybridization are automatically assessed. Additionally with each patient sample, an artificial gene is simultaneously processed as internal process control. The control verifies all PCR steps, as well as the array hybridization.

The patient sample is transferred to the Unyvero Sample Tube, sealed in with the Unyvero Sample Tube Cap, and lysed for 30 minutes in the Unyvero Lysator. 2. After 30 minutes the Unyvero Sample Tube is removed from the Lysator. Then the IAI Cartridge is assembled with the Unyvero Sample Tube and Unyvero Master Mix Tube. 3. The Cartride is scanned and insert into the Unyvero Analyzer. Two cartridges per analyzer can be analyzed simultaneously. 4. The Unyvero analysis runs for four to five hours. The results are displayed on the screen or can be exported as a PDF. 18 Investigational Use. Not available for Sale in the United States. 19
