Executive Summary
Unmet medical needs
For severe hypoxemia, the mechanical ventilator and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
(ECMO) are commonly utilized at ICU, while invasiveness, labor and cost are problem Recent pandemic caused supply imbalance, endangering numerous patients' lives at risk
Core Technology
First-in-history "organ" repurposing therapy: enteral ventilation to enable gas exchange EVA101 (first pipeline): A simple enema of liquid oxygen (perfluorocarbon) to prevent or treat the
acute deterioration of severe hypoxemia
R&D strategy
EVA101 (device): Japan IND Submission completed in 2022 4Q conducting a clinical trial EVA102 (drug): Initiate pre-oxygenated perfluorocarbon development and US clinical development
in 2023 4Q
EVA101/102 Market Opportunity
Japan: USD 100-200 million
US&EU5: USD 1-2 billion

Inspired by Evangelion 80
The Entry Plug of an Eva Unit, containing its cockpit, is completely flooded with LCL, and, because it is oxygenated,
upon being sub6m0 erged Eva pilots can "breathe" the liquid (similar to real-life experiments involving liquid breathing).

Time after administration (min)
Enteral ventilation allows for oxygen normalization more than an hour in rode6nt.
Proof of Concept of Enteral Ventilation
Due to the proven safety of perfluorochemicals in clinics, EVA potentially provides an adjunctive
means of oxygenation for patients under respiratory distress conditions.

The exploitation of intestinal breathing
phenomenon in mammalian pre-clinical models.
Offering an additional route of O2 administration
to patients who are in critical need of immediate
respiratory support.
