operation removes the prostate and seminal vesicles and removing these

The first Phase IIb clinical trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy
of PT-141 in 560 non-diabetic patients suffering from mild to severe ED.

In extreme cases, this can result in an inability to penetrate even though an erection is present, and the erection can be very painful.

About PT-141
PT-141 is the first compound in a new drug class called melanocortin
receptor agonists under development to treat sexual dysfunction. Clinical data indicates that PT-141 may be effective in
treating a broad range of patients suffering from ED. Some side effects that
research participants have experienced include facial flushing, nausea, bad
taste, post-nasal drip and runny nose, headache , and vomiting.

J. In addition, certain prescription drugs and psychogenic issues
may contribute to ED. This new
chemical entity is being evaluated in Phase IIb clinical trials studying the
efficacy and safety profile of varying doses of this novel compound in men
experiencing erectile dysfunction ("ED") and women experiencing female sexual
dysfunction ("FSD"). The mechanism of action of PT-141 may offer important
benefits over currently available products for the treatment of ED because it
acts on the pathway that controls sexual function without acting directly on
the vascular system. The nasal formulation of PT-141 currently under development is
presented in a convenient and non-invasive application. For example,
unlike PDE-5 inhibitors which are contraindicated in patients taking nitrates,
primarily for the treatment of cardiovascular disease, current animal data
indicates that PT-141 may not be contraindicated in patients taking nitrates. Securities
