Conference edition 46th Annual Growth Conference Name of the Canaccord Genuity investor conference in Boston
U.S. heart failure healthcare costs US$30 billion per year Associated healthcare costs in the United States for heart failure
MAvERIC-Pilot study phase Phase II Completed MAvERIC-Pilot study of CardiolRx in recurrent pericarditis
MAVERIC trial phase Phase III Ongoing pivotal MAVERIC trial of CardiolRx in recurrent pericarditis
ARCHER study phase Phase II Completed ARCHER study evaluating CardiolRx in acute myocarditis
Sudden cardiac death age reference 35 years of age Acute myocarditis noted as leading cause of sudden cardiac death under 35
Orphan Drug Designation regulatory
"The U.S. FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation to CardiolRx™"
Orphan drug designation is a special status given to medicines developed to treat rare diseases affecting only a small number of people. This status often provides benefits like faster approval processes and financial incentives, making it more attractive for companies to develop these drugs. For investors, it signals potential for exclusive market rights and reduced competition, which can impact the drug’s profitability.
recurrent pericarditis medical
"evaluating CardiolRx™ for the treatment of recurrent pericarditis, an inflammatory disease"
Inflammation of the thin sac around the heart that comes back after a first episode. Like a door that keeps sticking shut even after being fixed, recurrent pericarditis involves repeated bouts of chest pain, fever, or fatigue that can require ongoing treatment, tests, or even procedures. Investors track it because recurrent disease affects healthcare spending, drug trial design, regulatory review, and the potential market for therapies aimed at preventing or managing flare-ups.
acute myocarditis medical
"studied CardiolRx™, specifically in acute myocarditis--an important cause of acute"
Acute myocarditis is a sudden inflammation of the heart muscle that can weaken the heart’s ability to pump and cause irregular rhythms, often requiring medical treatment or hospitalization. For investors, it matters because cases can affect employee or executive health, trigger product safety or clinical-trial concerns, increase medical and legal costs, and prompt regulatory scrutiny—similar to how a jammed pump can slow down an entire factory’s output and raise repair bills.
inflammasome pathway activation medical
"CardiolRx™ modulates inflammasome pathway activation, an intracellular innate immune"
A cascade in certain immune cells where protein complexes called inflammasomes act like an intracellular alarm system, activating enzymes that produce inflammatory signals (notably IL‑1β and IL‑18) and can trigger a form of cell death. Scientists target or measure this pathway because turning it on or off can drive disease processes, serve as a biomarker of drug effect, or create safety and regulatory considerations for therapies, much like flipping a building’s fire alarm can change how people respond.
subcutaneously administered medical
"developing CRD-38, a novel, subcutaneously administered drug formulation"
A subcutaneously administered treatment is given by injecting medication just under the skin into the fatty layer, like placing a small dose into a shallow pocket beneath the surface rather than into a muscle or a vein. For investors, this matters because such delivery can make therapies easier for patients to self-administer, reduce clinic visits, and affect manufacturing, packaging, and reimbursement, all of which influence market adoption and cost structure.

About Cardiol Therapeutics

Cardiol Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDL) (TSX: CRDL) is a late-stage life sciences company focused on advancing the development of anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic therapies for heart disease. The Company's lead small-molecule drug candidate, CardiolRx, modulates inflammasome pathway activation, an intracellular innate immune system response known to play an important role in the development and progression of inflammation and fibrosis associated with pericarditis, myocarditis, and heart failure.

The MAVERIC Program is evaluating CardiolRx for the treatment of recurrent pericarditis, an inflammatory disease of the pericardium associated with symptoms including debilitating chest pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue, which can lead to physical limitations, reduced quality of life, emergency department visits, and hospitalizations. The program comprises the completed Phase II MAvERIC-Pilot study (NCT05494788) and the ongoing pivotal Phase III MAVERIC trial (NCT06708299). The U.S. FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation to CardiolRx for the treatment of pericarditis, including recurrent pericarditis.

The ARCHER Program also studied CardiolRx, specifically in acute myocarditis--an important cause of acute and fulminant heart failure in young adults and a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in individuals under 35 years of age. The program comprises the completed Phase II ARCHER study (NCT05180240), which evaluated the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of CardiolRx in this patient population.

The Company is also developing CRD-38, a novel, subcutaneously administered drug formulation intended for the treatment of inflammatory heart disease, including heart failure--a leading cause of death and hospitalization in the developed world, with associated healthcare costs in the United States exceeding US$30 billion per year.
