The applications are directed to the use of OncoSec&#8217;s interleukin-12 (IL-12)-based immunotherapy platform, including its lead product candidate TAVO\u2122 (tavokinogene telseplasmid)\u00a0delivered with the Company&#8217;s proprietary intratumoral gene electrotransfer\u00a0system for the treatment of cancer.<\/p>\n<p>The allowed patent claims cover methods of using TAVO delivered by intratumoral electroporation given in combination with a PD-1\/PD-L1 inhibitor, which OncoSec has shown stimulates the tumor microenvironment and enables the immune system to target and attack tumors throughout the body. The allowed claims are also directed to the delivery of a gene encoding a therapeutic protein, such as a cytokine, using electroporation, to treat microscopic residual tumors following tumor resection, an important treatment step that if implemented clinically, has the potential to improve \u00a0outcomes of cancer patients. Once granted, these two patents extend key patent coverage until <span class=\"xn-chron\">March 24, 2036<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-chron\">March 2, 2027<\/span> respectively.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Pursuing these patents is important to strengthen the intellectual property protections around TAVO and our electroporation gene delivery system,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Daniel O&#8217;Connor<\/span>, Chief Executive Officer of OncoSec. &#8220;The cancer therapy methods covered under these patents have potential to be applied to the treatment of a variety of cancer types and will provide additional proprietary protection as we seek to expand our global footprint.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As a next-generation intratumoral therapy, TAVO has already demonstrated the ability to induce regression of both treated lesions and untreated distant and visceral lesions, when used in combination with KEYTRUDA\u00ae (pembrolizumab), a PD-1 inhibitor, in patients with recurrent metastatic melanoma who are in need of a more effective treatment option.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About TAVO<\/b><br \/>\n        <sup>\u2122<\/sup>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>OncoSec&#8217;s gene therapy technology combines TAVO<sup>TM<\/sup> (tavokinogene telseplasmid), a DNA plasmid-based interleukin-12 (IL-12), with an intra-tumoral electroporation gene delivery platform to achieve endogenous IL-12 production in the tumor microenvironment that enables the immune system to target and attack tumors throughout the body. TAVO has demonstrated a local and systemic anti-tumor response in several clinical trials, including the pivotal Phase <span class=\"xn-money\">2b<\/span> trial KEYNOTE-695 for metastatic melanoma and the KEYNOTE-890 Phase 2 trial in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). TAVO\u2122\u00a0has received both Orphan Drug and Fast-Track Designation by the U.S.\u00a0 Food &amp; Drug Administration for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About OncoSec Medical Incorporated<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>OncoSec Medical Incorporated (the &#8220;Company,&#8221; &#8220;OncoSec,&#8221; &#8220;we&#8221; or &#8220;our&#8221;) is a late-stage biotechnology company focused on developing cytokine-based intratumoral immunotherapies to stimulate the body&#8217;s immune system to target and attack cancer. OncoSec&#8217;s lead immunotherapy investigational product candidate \u2013 TAVO\u2122 (tavokinogene telseplasmid) \u2013 enables the intratumoral delivery of DNA-based interleukin-12 (IL-12), a naturally occurring protein with immune-stimulating functions. The technology, which employs electroporation, is designed to produce a controlled, localized expression of IL-12 in the tumor microenvironment, enabling the immune system to target and attack tumors throughout the body. OncoSec has built a deep and diverse clinical pipeline utilizing TAVO\u2122 as a potential treatment for multiple cancer indications either as a monotherapy or in combination with leading checkpoint inhibitors; with the latter potentially enabling OncoSec to address a great unmet medical need in oncology: anti-PD-1 non-responders. Results from recently completed clinical studies of TAVO\u2122 have demonstrated a local immune response, and subsequently, a systemic effect as either a monotherapy or combination treatment approach along with an acceptable safety profile, warranting further development. In addition to TAVO\u2122, OncoSec is identifying and developing new DNA-encoded therapeutic candidates and tumor indications for use with its new Visceral Lesion Applicator (VLA), to target deep visceral lesions, such as liver, lung or pancreatic lesions.
