About Futura Medical plc

Futura Medical plc (AIM: FUM), is a pharmaceutical company developing a portfolio of innovative products based on its proprietary, transdermal DermaSys(R) technology. Each DermaSys(R) formulation is separately patented and specifically tailored for the selected indication and application, as well as being optimised for clinical efficacy, safety, administration and patient convenience. The products are developed for the prescription and consumer healthcare markets as appropriate. Current therapeutic areas are sexual health, including erectile dysfunction, and pain relief. Development and commercialisation strategies are designed to maximise product differentiation and value creation whilst minimising risk.

MED3000 is Futura's topical gel formulation that is a breakthrough treatment for erectile dysfunction ("ED") through a unique evaporative mode of action. Futura has previously conducted a Phase 3 study using MED3000 in ED, referred to as "FM57". This was a 1,000 patient, dose-ranging, multi-centre, randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled, home use, parallel group study, delivering highly statistically significant results compared to pre-treatment baseline, using measures IIEF-EF, SEP2 and SEP3 (internationally accepted clinical trial endpoints in ED) with over 60% of patients experiencing a clinically meaningful improvement in their ED. A second confirmatory Phase 3 clinical study, "FM71" was also conducted to support Futura's regulatory submission to the FDA with 96 ED patients and endpoints at 24 weeks, demonstrating that MED3000 presents an effective clinically proven treatment for ED with a rapid speed of onset and a favourable benefit versus risk profile, ideally suited for OTC classification.

MED3000 is CE marked in Europe and CA marked in the UK as a clinically proven topical treatment for adult men with erectile dysfunction under the brand Eroxon(R) with a key claim of "Helps you get an erection within 10 minutes".
