Scancell development highlights

Clinically validated vaccine and antibody technology platforms with multiple value drivers

Non-personalised cancer Vaccines

Vaccine platform 1(SCIB1 from Immunobody®):

  • Impressive phase 2 early efficacy data obtained on the first 11 evaluable patients treated with a combo vaccine/CPIs in cutaneous melanoma showed an 82% objective response rate (ORR) to treatment
  • No toxicity from SCIB1 alone or when added to CPI treatment
  • These results are so strong there is a greater than 90% probability they will be confirmed in the larger patient cohort H1 2024.
  • Potential to become the new benchmark for unresectable metastatic melanoma treatment (a $1.5bn market)

Vaccine platform 2 (Modi-1 from Moditope®):

  • Currently in Phase 2 trial for Head and Neck and Renal Carcinoma (two strong unmet medical needs)
  • 11 patients are ongoing treatment
  • Results with MODI-1 with checkpoint inhibitors are expected in 2024

Antibodies

A source of non dilutive cash with out licensing opportunities for a range of antibodies

Interest expressed by 3 biotechs for ADC and CART applications.

Validated by Genmab in a $624M license agreement for one of the antibodies to treat one of the most difficult cancer: pancreas

Revenues from preclinical antibody platform partially de-risks the

business model by providing non dilutive cash

Oncology Vaccine Overview

  • Personalised mRNA vaccines (e.g., Moderna, BioNTech) pose economic and technical challenges
    • Not off the shelf, several weeks to prepare, need a biopsy, adding to cost to make and distribute
    • Uses multiple unvalidated epitopes which limits efficacy
  • Scancell's DNA vaccine technologies unlock potential for a universal cancer vaccine
    • A DNA vaccine inducing potent cytotoxic CD8 T cell responses against multiple epitopes with a dual mechanism of action - attacking cancer on multiple fronts
    • Direct and indirect Fc targeting of activated dendritic cells
    • Limited toxicity from SCIB1 alone or when added to CPI treatment
    • Off the shelf, 'easy' to make and distribute, to be used in unresectable melanoma, pricing flexibility
    • Needle free delivery: patient's favourite
  • Improved efficacy in combination with CPI therapy… riding the tail of the leaders
    • Synergy (not competition) with immunotherapies and checkpoint inhibitors (CPI market size predicted to be >$50 billion by 2027*)
      • CPIs open up immune access to the tumour
      • Scancell vaccines boost the immune system to attack the exposed tumours
