−Removed: Management’s Discussion
−Removed: and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
−Removed: You should read
−Removed: the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our unaudited consolidated
−Removed: financial statements and related notes appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or this
−Removed: Quarterly Report, and with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2020,
−Removed: included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020.
−Removed: In addition to historical
−Removed: information, some of the statements contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report,
−Removed: including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, constitute forward-looking statements within the
−Removed: meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
−Removed: as amended, or the Exchange Act.
−Removed: We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about
−Removed: future events.
−Removed: The following information and any forward-looking statements should be considered in light of factors discussed
−Removed: elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, particularly including those risks identified in Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors”
−Removed: and our other filings with the SEC.
−Removed: We caution you that
−Removed: forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition
−Removed: and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate may differ materially from the forward-looking statements
−Removed: contained in this Quarterly Report.
−Removed: Statements made herein are as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report with the Securities
−Removed: Exchange Commission, or SEC, and should not be relied upon as of any subsequent date.
−Removed: Even if our results of operations, financial
−Removed: condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements
−Removed: contained in this Quarterly Report, they may not be predictive of results or developments in future periods.
−Removed: We disclaim any obligation,
−Removed: except as specifically required by law and the rules of the SEC, to publicly update or revise any such statements to reflect
−Removed: any change in our expectations or in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements may be based or that may
−Removed: affect the likelihood that actual results will differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
−Removed: We are a clinical-stage
−Removed: biotechnology company committed to applying our leading expertise in the field of oncolytic immunotherapy to transform the lives
−Removed: of cancer patients.
−Removed: We use our proprietary Immulytic platform to design and develop product candidates that are intended to maximally
−Removed: activate the immune system against cancer.
−Removed: Oncolytic immunotherapy
−Removed: is an emerging drug class, which we intend to establish as the second cornerstone of immune-based cancer treatments, alongside
−Removed: checkpoint blockade.
−Removed: Oncolytic immunotherapy exploits the ability of certain viruses to selectively replicate in and directly kill
−Removed: tumors, as well as induce a potent, patient-specific, anti-tumor immune response.
−Removed: Our product candidates incorporate multiple mechanisms
−Removed: of action into a practical “off-the-shelf”
−Removed: approach that is intended to maximize the immune response against a patient’s
−Removed: cancer and to offer significant advantages over personalized vaccine approaches.
−Removed: We believe that the bundling of multiple approaches
−Removed: for the treatment of cancer into single therapies will simplify the development path of our product candidates, while also improving
−Removed: patient outcomes at a lower cost to the healthcare system than the use of multiple different drugs.
−Removed: The foundation of our
−Removed: Immulytic platform consists of a proprietary, engineered strain of herpes simplex virus 1, or HSV-1, that has been “armed”
−Removed: with a fusogenic glycoprotein intended to substantially increase anti-tumor activity.
−Removed: Our Immulytic platform enables us to incorporate
−Removed: various genes into HSV-1 that are intended to further augment the inherent properties of HSV-1 in order to both directly destroy
−Removed: tumor cells and induce an anti-tumor immune response.
−Removed: We currently have three product candidates in our development pipeline:
−Removed: our lead product candidate, RP2 and RP3.
−Removed: We are conducting a
−Removed: number of clinical trials of RP1, both as a monotherapy and in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy, with a focus on immune-responsive
−Removed: We are actively enrolling patients in a randomized, controlled Phase 2 clinical trial of RP1 in up to approximately
−Removed: 240 patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, or CSCC, RP1’s lead indication.
−Removed: This registration-directed clinical
−Removed: trial is evaluating RP1 in combination with cemiplimab, an anti-PD-1 therapy developed by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.,
−Removed: or Regeneron, versus cemiplimab alone.
−Removed: Regeneron has granted to us a non-exclusive royalty-free license to cemiplimab for use in
−Removed: this trial, is funding one-half of the clinical trial costs, and is supplying cemiplimab at no cost to us.
−Removed: If this clinical trial
−Removed: generates compelling clinical data demonstrating the benefits of the combined treatment, we believe the data could support a filing
−Removed: with regulatory authorities seeking marketing approval.
−Removed: We expect the primary data read-out from this Phase 2 clinical trial
−Removed: will be in 2022.
−Removed: We have also opened
−Removed: for enrollment a Phase 1b clinical trial of single agent RP1 in solid organ transplant recipients with CSCC, which we believe
−Removed: to be potentially registrational (in its own right or, subject to discussion with regulatory authorities, following enrollment
−Removed: of additional patients, including as a potential label expansion after an initial approval of RP1 in a different indication).
−Removed: are currently enrolling approximately 30 patients in this clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of RP1 in liver and
−Removed: kidney transplant recipients with recurrent CSCC.
−Removed: Progress in this clinical trial has been particularly impacted by COVID-19, as
−Removed: the patient population is severely immune-compromised and considered very high risk if they were to contract COVID-19.
−Removed: Nevertheless,
−Removed: we expect to dose the first patient in this clinical trial in early 2021 and present initial data from this clinical trial in the
−Removed: second half of the year.
−Removed: We have also entered
−Removed: into a collaboration with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, or BMS, under which it has granted us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license
−Removed: to, and is supplying at no cost, its anti-PD-1 therapy, nivolumab, for use in combination with RP1 in a multi-cohort Phase 1/2
−Removed: clinical trial.
−Removed: We are currently enrolling a 125-patient extension cohort of RP1 combined with nivolumab in anti-PD-1 failed cutaneous
−Removed: We initiated this cohort after completing enrollment in a prior Phase 2 cohort in the same clinical trial of approximately
−Removed: 30 patients with melanoma.
−Removed: The data generated in the prior melanoma cohort demonstrated that RP1 combined with nivolumab has
−Removed: the potential to treat anti-PD-1 failed melanoma.
−Removed: We also believe this cohort to be potentially registrational (in its own right
−Removed: or, subject to discussion with regulatory authorities, following enrollment of additional patients).
−Removed: We expect that the primary
−Removed: data read-out from this Phase 2 melanoma cohort will be in 2022.
−Removed: In October 2020 we announced updated clinical data from
−Removed: our multi-cohort Phase 1/2 clinical trial evaluating RP1 in combination with nivolumab in patients with melanoma and non-melanoma
−Removed: skin cancers.
−Removed: As reported, RP1 in combination with nivolumab has continued to be well tolerated, and we believe demonstrates continued
−Removed: promising efficacy signals of anti-tumor activity in patients with skin cancers, including in patients with anti-PD-1 failed and
−Removed: other difficult-to-treat melanomas, and in patients with CSCC.
−Removed: We continue to enroll
−Removed: patients in other Phase 2 cohorts under our collaboration with BMS in which we are testing RP1 in combination with nivolumab,
−Removed: including a non-melanoma skin cancers cohort, a microsatellite instability high, or MSI-H/dMMR tumor cohort, and we have recently
−Removed: opened for enrollment a cohort of 30 patients with anti-PD-1 failed non-small cell lung cancer, or NSCLC.
−Removed: We and BMS recently agreed
−Removed: to increase the number of patients in our non-melanoma skin cancer cohort from 30 to 45 patients to include anti-PD-1 failed patients.
−Removed: Due in part to COVID-19 related disruptions, we expect the original 30 patient non-melanoma skin cancer cohort to be fully accrued
−Removed: in early 2021.
−Removed: Before we determine the next stages of development in this indication, we intend to enroll a total of 15 patients
−Removed: into our MSI-H/dMMR cohort.
−Removed: We continue to accumulate data in the MSI-H/dMMR cohort and expect to decide whether to pursue MSI-H/dMMR
−Removed: tumors into registration-directed development later in 2021.
−Removed: We are also developing
−Removed: additional product candidates, RP2 and RP3, that have been further engineered to enhance anti-tumor immune responses and are intended
−Removed: to address additional tumor types.
−Removed: In addition to the expression of GALV-GP R(-) and human GM-CSF, RP2 has been engineered to express
−Removed: an antibody-like molecule intended to block the activity of CTLA-4, a protein that inhibits the full activation of an immune response,
−Removed: including to tumors.
−Removed: RP3, which does not include the expression of GM-CSF, has been engineered with the intent to further stimulate
−Removed: an anti-tumor immune response through activation of the immune co-stimulatory pathways through expression of the ligands for CD40L
−Removed: and 4-1BBL, in addition to anti-CTLA-4 and GALV-GP R(-).
−Removed: We initiated a Phase 1
−Removed: clinical trial of RP2 alone and in combination with nivolumab in October 2019.
−Removed: This clinical trial is also being conducted
−Removed: as part of our collaboration with BMS, under which BMS has granted us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to, and will supply
−Removed: at no cost, nivolumab, for use in combination with RP2.
−Removed: We and BMS recently agreed to increase the number of patients in the combination
−Removed: part of the clinical trial from 12 to 30 patients.
−Removed: In October 2020, we presented positive data from the single agent RP2 portion
−Removed: of the clinical trial that showed deep and durable responses, including demonstration of uninjected tumor response in patients
−Removed: with difficult to treat advanced cancers.
−Removed: This data supports the hypothesis that anti-CTLA-4 delivered intra-tumorally through
−Removed: oncolytic virus replication, with accompanying antigen release and presentation, can provide potent anti-tumor effects.
−Removed: the monotherapy phase of this clinical trial with RP2, enrollment of patients treated with RP2 used in combination with nivolumab
−Removed: is currently underway and we expect to present initial combination data in mid-2021.
−Removed: We have obtained clearance
−Removed: from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency in the United Kingdom to begin clinical development with RP3 and in
−Removed: December 2020 we initiated dosing in this clinical trial.
−Removed: This Phase 1 clinical trial is designed to evaluate RP3 alone and
−Removed: combined with anti-PD-1 therapy in advanced solid tumor patients.
−Removed: Initial data from this clinical trial is expected to be presented
−Removed: in the second half of 2021.
−Removed: RP1, RP2 and RP3 are
−Removed: administered by direct injection into solid tumors, guided either visually or by ultrasound, computerized tomography, or CT, or
−Removed: other imaging methods.
−Removed: We believe that direct injection maximizes virus-mediated tumor cell death, provides the most efficient
−Removed: delivery of virus-encoded immune activating proteins into the tumor with the goal of activating systemic immunity, and limits the
−Removed: systemic toxicities that could be associated with intravenous administration.
−Removed: Activation of systemic immunity through local administration
−Removed: is intended to lead to the induction of anti-tumor immune responses leading to clinical response of tumors that have not themselves
−Removed: been injected.
−Removed: Since our inception,
−Removed: we have devoted substantially all of our resources to developing our Immulytic platform, building our intellectual property portfolio,
−Removed: conducting research and development of our product candidates, business planning, raising capital and providing general and administrative
−Removed: support for our operations.
−Removed: To date, we have financed our operations primarily with proceeds from the sale of equity securities
−Removed: and to a lesser extent the proceeds from the issuance of debt securities.
−Removed: We do not have any products approved for sale and have
−Removed: not generated any revenue from product sales.
−Removed: Since our initial public
−Removed: offering, or IPO, on July 24 2018, we have raised an aggregate of approximately $569.2 million in net proceeds to fund our
−Removed: operations, of which $101.2 million was from our IPO, $463.6 million was from three separate follow-on offerings, or the Public
−Removed: Offerings, that we closed in November 2019, June 2020 and October 2020, respectively, and $4.4 million was from
−Removed: at-the-market offerings.
−Removed: We sold 7,407,936 shares of common stock in our IPO, an aggregate of 13,619,822 shares of our common stock
−Removed: and pre-funded warrants to purchase 5,284,238 shares of our common stock in the Public Offerings, and 287,559 shares of common
−Removed: stock through our at-the-market facility.
−Removed: Funds affiliated with
−Removed: two separate institutional investors hold all of our outstanding pre-funded warrants.
−Removed: Other than as set forth in Note 8 of our
−Removed: condensed consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, the shares of our common stock into which
−Removed: our outstanding pre-funded warrants are exercisable are not included in the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common
−Removed: stock set forth in this Quarterly Report.
−Removed: In addition, on August 8,
−Removed: 2019, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Hercules Capital, Inc., or Hercules, which we refer to as the Hercules
−Removed: Loan Agreement, pursuant to which we borrowed $10.0 million under a secured term loan facility in the amount of $30.0 million.
−Removed: The Hercules Loan Agreement was subsequently amended on June 1, 2020, in order to, among other things, increase the secured
−Removed: term loan facility from $30.0 million to $40.0 million.
−Removed: On December 15, 2020, we paid a total of $10.8 million, representing
−Removed: the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, fees, costs and expenses due and owing under the Hercules Loan Agreement
−Removed: and related loan documents, in repayment of all of our outstanding obligations thereunder, and thereby terminated the Hercules
−Removed: Loan Agreement and the related loan documents.
−Removed: Since our inception,
−Removed: we have incurred significant operating losses.
−Removed: Our ability to generate product revenue sufficient to achieve profitability will
−Removed: depend on the successful development and eventual commercialization of one or more of our product candidates.
−Removed: Our net losses were
−Removed: $21.8 million and $16.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively and net losses of $59.4
−Removed: million and $36.8 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2020,
−Removed: we had an accumulated deficit of $171.7 million.
−Removed: These losses have resulted primarily from costs incurred in connection with research
−Removed: and development activities and general and administrative costs associated with our operations.
−Removed: We expect to continue to incur
−Removed: significant expenses and increasing operating losses for at least the next several years.
−Removed: We anticipate that
−Removed: our expenses and capital requirements will increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we
−Removed: advance the preclinical activities and clinical trials of our product candidates, and if and as we:
−Removed: ● conduct our current and future clinical trials with RP1, RP2 and RP3;
−Removed: ● further preclinical development of our platform;
−Removed: ● operate our own in-house manufacturing facility;
−Removed: ● seek to identify and develop additional product candidates;
−Removed: ● seek marketing approvals for any of our product candidates that successfully complete clinical
−Removed: trials, if any;
−Removed: ● establish a sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for
−Removed: which we may obtain marketing approval;
−Removed: ● until our manufacturing facility is fully validated, continued limited manufacturing by third parties
−Removed: for clinical development;
−Removed: ● maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio;
−Removed: ● hire and retain additional clinical, quality control, scientific and general and administration
−Removed: ● acquire or in-license other drugs and technologies;
−Removed: ● add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel
−Removed: to support our research and development programs, any future commercialization efforts and operating as a public company.
−Removed: We will not generate
−Removed: revenue from product sales unless and until we successfully complete clinical development and obtain regulatory approval for RP1
−Removed: or our other product candidates.
−Removed: If we obtain regulatory approval for any of our product candidates and do not enter into a commercialization
−Removed: partnership in any jurisdiction, we expect to incur significant expenses related to developing our internal commercialization capability
−Removed: to support product sales, marketing, and distribution.
−Removed: As a result, we will
−Removed: need additional funding to support our continuing operations and pursue our growth strategy.
−Removed: Until such time as we can generate
−Removed: significant revenue from product sales, if ever, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of equity offerings,
−Removed: debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances, and marketing, distribution, or licensing arrangements.
−Removed: We may be unable
−Removed: to raise additional funds or enter into such other agreements or arrangements when needed on favorable terms, or at all.
−Removed: fail to raise capital or enter into such agreements as, and when, needed, we may have to significantly delay, scale back, or discontinue
−Removed: the development and commercialization of one or more of our product candidates.
−Removed: Because of the numerous
−Removed: risks and uncertainties associated with pharmaceutical product development, we are unable to accurately predict the timing or amount
−Removed: of increased expenses or when, or if, we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability.
−Removed: Even if we are able to generate product
−Removed: sales, we may not become profitable.
−Removed: If we fail to become profitable or are unable to sustain profitability on a continuing basis,
−Removed: then we may be unable to continue our operations at planned levels and be forced to reduce or terminate our operations.
−Removed: As of December 31,
−Removed: 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $493.3 million.
−Removed: We believe that our existing cash and cash
−Removed: equivalents and short-term investments will enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through
−Removed: at least 12 months from the issuance of the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
−Removed: See “—Liquidity
−Removed: and capital resources”
−Removed: and “Risk factors—Risks related to our financial position and need for additional capital.”
−Removed: In December 2019,
−Removed: a novel strain of coronavirus, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China.
−Removed: In March 2020,
−Removed: the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the U.S.
−Removed: and worldwide.
−Removed: We could be materially and adversely affected by the risks, or the public perception of the risks, related to an epidemic, pandemic,
−Removed: outbreak, or other public health crisis, such as the recent outbreak of COVID-19.
−Removed: We are continuing to monitor the global outbreak
−Removed: and spread of COVID-19 and have taken steps to identify and mitigate the adverse impacts on, and risks to, our business posed by
−Removed: its spread and actions taken by governmental and health authorities to address the COVID-19 pandemic.
−Removed: The spread of COVID-19 has
−Removed: caused us to modify our business practices, including implementing a global work from home policy for certain employees who are
−Removed: able to perform their duties remotely and reducing travel.
−Removed: For those employees working from our facilities, including certain essential
−Removed: employees in our laboratory and who perform manufacturing functions, and certain other employees as deemed essential from time
−Removed: to time, we have implemented stringent safety measures designed to comply with applicable federal, state and local guidelines instituted
−Removed: in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
−Removed: Fluctuation in infection rates in the regions in which we operate has resulted in periodic
−Removed: changes in restrictions that vary from region to region and require vigilant attention and rapid response to new or reinstated
−Removed: We expect to continue to take actions as may be required or recommended by government authorities or as we determine are
−Removed: in the best interests of our employees, the patients we serve and other business partners in light of COVID-19.
−Removed: The COVID-19 pandemic
−Removed: has delayed, and we expect it may continue to delay, the timing of patient enrollment and treatment in certain of our ongoing clinical
−Removed: For example, the enrollment of our clinical trial of RP1 in liver and kidney transplant patients with CSCC, representing
−Removed: highly immunocompromised patient populations, has been slower than expected for reasons we attribute to the COVID-19 pandemic.
−Removed: However, the extent of these delays is currently unknown and has and will likely continue to vary by clinical study site and may
−Removed: be amplified as a result of the impacts of a “second wave”
−Removed: of the virus outbreak.
−Removed: In addition, we may incur unforeseen
−Removed: costs as a result of disruptions in clinical supply or preclinical study or clinical trial delays.
−Removed: While vaccines for COVID-19
−Removed: are being, and have been developed, there is no guarantee that any such vaccine will be effective, work as expected or be made
−Removed: available or will be accepted on a significant scale and in a timely manner.
−Removed: The impact of COVID-19 on our business future results
−Removed: will largely depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate
−Removed: geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the pandemic, travel restrictions and social distancing in the United States
−Removed: and other countries, business closures or business disruptions, the ultimate impact on financial markets and the global economy,
−Removed: and the effectiveness of actions taken in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease.
−Removed: See “Risk
−Removed: Factors—Our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by the recent novel coronavirus disease-2019,
−Removed: or COVID-19, outbreak.”
−Removed: in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report.
−Removed: Components of our results of operations
−Removed: To date, we have not
−Removed: generated any revenue from product sales as we do not have any approved products and do not expect to generate any revenue from
−Removed: the sale of products in the near future.
−Removed: If our development efforts for RP1 or any other product candidates that we may develop
−Removed: in the future are successful and result in regulatory approval, or if we enter into collaboration or license agreements with third
−Removed: parties, we may generate revenue in the future from a combination of product sales or payments from those collaborations or license
−Removed: Operating expenses
−Removed: Our expenses since
−Removed: inception have consisted solely of research and development costs and general and administrative costs.
−Removed: Research and development expenses
−Removed: Research and development
−Removed: expenses consist primarily of costs incurred for our research activities, including our discovery efforts and the development of
−Removed: our product candidates, and include:
−Removed: ● expenses incurred under agreements with third parties, including clinical research organizations,
−Removed: or CROs, that conduct research, preclinical activities and clinical trials on our behalf as well as contract manufacturing organizations,
−Removed: or CMOs, that manufacture our product candidates for use in our preclinical and clinical trials;
−Removed: ● salaries, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation expense, for personnel
−Removed: engaged in research and development functions;
−Removed: ● costs of outside consultants, including their fees, stock-based compensation and related travel
−Removed: ● costs of laboratory supplies and acquiring, developing and manufacturing preclinical study and
−Removed: clinical trial materials;
−Removed: ● costs related to compliance with regulatory requirements in connection with the development of
−Removed: our product candidates;
−Removed: ● facility-related expenses, which include direct depreciation costs and allocated expenses for rent
−Removed: and maintenance of facilities and other operating costs.
−Removed: costs will be partially offset by our agreement with Regeneron related to our
−Removed: Phase 2 clinical trial of RP1 in approximately 240 patients with clinical trial CSCC .
−Removed: We expense research
−Removed: and development costs as incurred.
−Removed: We recognize external development costs based on an evaluation of the progress to completion
−Removed: of specific tasks using information provided to us by our service providers.
−Removed: Payments for these activities are based on the terms
−Removed: of the individual agreements, which may differ from the pattern of costs incurred, and are reflected in our consolidated financial
−Removed: statements as prepaid or accrued research and development expenses.
−Removed: Our direct external
−Removed: research and development expenses are tracked on a program-by-program basis and consist of costs, such as fees paid to consultants,
−Removed: contractors, CMOs, and CROs in connection with our preclinical and clinical development activities.
−Removed: We do not allocate personnel
−Removed: costs, costs associated with our discovery efforts, laboratory supplies, and facilities, including depreciation or other indirect
−Removed: costs, to specific product development programs because these costs are deployed across multiple product development programs and,
−Removed: as such, are not separately classified.
−Removed: All non-employee costs associated with our manufacturing facility have been fully burdened
−Removed: to our RP1 program.
−Removed: The table below summarizes
−Removed: our research and development expenses by product candidate or development program for each of the periods presented:
−Removed: Three Months Ended
−Removed: Nine Months Ended
−Removed: (Amounts in thousands)
−Removed: Direct research and development expenses by program:
−Removed: Unallocated research and development expenses:
−Removed: Personnel related (including stock-based compensation)
−Removed: Total research and development expenses
−Removed: Research and development
−Removed: activities are central to our business model.
−Removed: Product candidates in later stages of clinical development generally have higher
−Removed: development costs than those in earlier stages of clinical development, primarily due to the increased size and duration of later-stage
−Removed: clinical trials.
−Removed: We expect that our research and development expenses will continue to increase for the foreseeable future as we
−Removed: continue enrollment and initiate additional clinical trials and continue to discover and develop additional product candidates.
−Removed: The successful development and commercialization of our product candidates is highly uncertain.
−Removed: This is due to the numerous risks
−Removed: and uncertainties associated with product development and commercialization, including the following:
−Removed: ● the scope, rate of progress, expense and results of our ongoing clinical trials, as well future
−Removed: clinical trials or other product candidates and other research and development activities that we may conduct;
−Removed: ● the number and scope of preclinical and clinical programs we decide to pursue;
−Removed: ● our ability to maintain our current research and development programs and to establish new ones;
−Removed: ● uncertainties in clinical trial design;
−Removed: ● the rate of enrollment in clinical trials;
−Removed: ● the successful completion of clinical trials with safety, tolerability, and efficacy profiles that
−Removed: are satisfactory to the FDA or any comparable foreign regulatory authority;
−Removed: ● the receipt of regulatory approvals from applicable regulatory authorities;
−Removed: ● our success in operating a manufacturing facility, or securing manufacturing supply through relationships
−Removed: with third parties;
−Removed: ● our ability to obtain and maintain patents, trade secret protection, and regulatory exclusivity,
−Removed: both in the United States and internationally;
−Removed: ● our ability to protect our rights in our intellectual property portfolio;
−Removed: ● the commercialization of our product candidates, if and when approved;
−Removed: ● the acceptance of our product candidates, if approved, by patients, the medical community, and
−Removed: third-party payors;
−Removed: ● our ability to successfully develop our product candidates for use in combination with third-party
−Removed: products or product candidates;
−Removed: ● negative developments in the field of immuno-oncology;
−Removed: ● competition with other products;
−Removed: ● significant and changing government regulation and regulatory guidance.
−Removed: A change in the outcome
−Removed: of any of these variables with respect to the development of a product candidate could mean a significant change in the costs and
−Removed: timing associated with the development of that product candidate.
−Removed: For example, if the FDA or another regulatory authority were
−Removed: to require us to conduct clinical trials beyond those that we anticipate will be required for the completion of clinical development
−Removed: of a product candidate, or if we experience significant trial delays due to patient enrollment or other reasons, we would be required
−Removed: to expend significant additional financial resources and time on the completion of clinical development.
−Removed: We may never succeed in
−Removed: obtaining regulatory approval for any of our product candidates.
−Removed: General and administrative expenses
−Removed: General and administrative
−Removed: expenses consist primarily of salaries and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel in our executive,
−Removed: finance, corporate and business development and administrative functions.
−Removed: General and administrative expenses also include professional
−Removed: fees for legal, patent, accounting, auditing, tax and consulting services;
−Removed: travel expenses;
−Removed: and facility-related expenses, which
−Removed: include direct depreciation costs and allocated expenses for rent and maintenance of facilities and other operating costs.
−Removed: We expect that our
−Removed: general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our general and administrative headcount to support
−Removed: our continued research and development and potential commercialization of our product candidates.
−Removed: We also expect to continue to
−Removed: incur increased expenses, including accounting, audit, legal, regulatory and tax-related services associated with maintaining compliance
−Removed: with exchange listing and SEC requirements;
−Removed: director and officer insurance costs;
−Removed: and investor and public relations costs.
−Removed: Other income (expense), net
−Removed: Research and development incentives
−Removed: Research and development
−Removed: incentives consists of reimbursements of research and development expenditures.
−Removed: We participate, through our subsidiary in the United
−Removed: Kingdom, in the research and development program provided by the United Kingdom tax relief program, such that a percentage of up
−Removed: to 14.5% of our qualifying research and development expenditures are reimbursed by the United Kingdom government, and such incentives
−Removed: are reflected as other income.
−Removed: Investment income
−Removed: Investment income consists
−Removed: of income earned on our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.
−Removed: Interest expense on finance lease liability
−Removed: Interest expense on
−Removed: finance lease liability consists of amortization of finance charges under our financing lease.
−Removed: Interest expense on debt obligations

−Removed: 2020 and June 30, 2021, and July 1, 2021 and December 15, 2021, respectively.
−Removed: On December 15,
−Removed: 2020, we entered into a Payoff Letter with respect to the Hercules Loan Agreement.
−Removed: Pursuant to the Payoff Letter, we paid a total

−Removed: Under the Hercules Loan Agreement, we were required to
−Removed: make monthly interest-only payments through September 1, 2022.
−Removed: As of December 31, 2020, there was no amount of outstanding
−Removed: principal under the Hercules Loan Agreement due and owing.
−Removed: The term loan facility
−Removed: with Hercules was secured by substantially all of our assets, excluding our intellectual property, and subject to certain exceptions
−Removed: and exclusions.
−Removed: All liens on our assets held by Hercules were released in connection with the our execution of the Payoff Letter.
−Removed: Funding requirements
−Removed: Our plan of operation
−Removed: is to continue implementing our business strategy, continue research and development of RP1 and our other product candidates and
−Removed: continue to expand our research pipeline and our internal research and development capabilities.
−Removed: We expect our expenses to increase
−Removed: substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we advance the preclinical activities and clinical trials
−Removed: of our product candidates and if and as we:
−Removed: ● conduct our current and future clinical trials with RP1, RP2 and RP3;
−Removed: ● further preclinical development of our platform;
−Removed: ● operate our own in-house manufacturing facility;
−Removed: ● seek to identify and develop additional product candidates;
−Removed: ● seek marketing approvals for any of our product candidates that successfully complete clinical
−Removed: trials, if any;
−Removed: ● establish a sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize any products for
−Removed: which we may obtain marketing approval;
−Removed: ● until our planned manufacturing facility is fully validated, continued limited manufacturing by
−Removed: third parties for clinical development.
−Removed: ● maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio;
−Removed: ● acquire or in-license other drugs and technologies;
−Removed: ● add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel
−Removed: to support our research and development programs, any future commercialization efforts and operations as a public company.
−Removed: As of December 31,
−Removed: 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $493.3 million.
−Removed: We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents
−Removed: and short-term investments as of December 31, 2020, will enable us to fund our overall operations into the second half of
−Removed: We have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources
−Removed: sooner than we expect.
−Removed: Because of the numerous
−Removed: risks and uncertainties associated with the development of RP1 and other product candidates and programs, and because the extent
−Removed: to which we may enter into collaborations with third parties for development of our product candidates is unknown, we are unable
−Removed: to estimate the timing and amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenses associated with completing the research
−Removed: and development of our product candidates.
−Removed: Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including those described
−Removed: in this section and above under “—Operating expenses—Research and development expenses.”
−Removed: Developing novel biopharmaceutical
−Removed: products, including conducting preclinical studies and clinical trials, is a time-consuming, expensive and uncertain process that
−Removed: takes years to complete, and we may never generate the necessary data or results required to obtain marketing approval for any
−Removed: product candidates or generate revenue from the sale of any products for which we may obtain marketing approval.
−Removed: In addition, our
−Removed: product candidates, if approved, may not achieve commercial success.
−Removed: Our commercial revenues, if any, will be derived from sales
−Removed: of therapies that we do not expect to be commercially available for many years, if ever.
−Removed: Accordingly, we will need to obtain substantial
−Removed: additional funds to achieve our business objectives.
−Removed: Adequate additional
−Removed: funds may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.
−Removed: We do not currently have any committed external source of funds.
−Removed: To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of our equity or convertible debt securities, our shareholders’
−Removed: interest may be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences and anti-dilution protections
−Removed: that could adversely affect the rights of our common stockholder.
−Removed: Additional debt or preferred equity financing, if available,
−Removed: may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that may limit our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring
−Removed: debt adversely impact our ability to conduct our business, and may require the issuance of warrants, which could potentially dilute
−Removed: your ownership interest.
−Removed: If we raise additional
−Removed: funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable
−Removed: rights to our technology, future revenue streams, research programs, or product candidates or grant licenses on terms that may
−Removed: not be favorable to us.
−Removed: If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or collaborations, strategic
−Removed: alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce and/or terminate
−Removed: our product development programs or any future commercialization efforts or grant rights to develop and market product candidates
−Removed: that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
−Removed: Contractual obligations and commitments
−Removed: During the nine months
−Removed: ended December 31, 2020, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments from those described
−Removed: under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Contractual
−Removed: Obligations and Commitments”

−Removed: BMS granted us a non-exclusive, non-transferrable, royalty-free license (with a right to sublicense) under its intellectual
−Removed: property to use nivolumab in the clinical trial and has agreed to supply nivolumab, at no cost to us, for use in the clinical trial.
−Removed: Both parties will own the study data produced in the clinical trial, other than study data related solely to nivolumab, which will
−Removed: belong solely to BMS, or study data related solely to RP1, which will belong solely to us.
−Removed: In January 2020, this agreement
−Removed: was expanded to cover an additional cohort of 125 patients with anti-PD-1 failed melanoma.
−Removed: Unless earlier terminated,
−Removed: the agreement will remain in effect until (i) the completion of the clinical trial, (ii) all related clinical trial data
−Removed: have been delivered to both parties and (iii) the completion of any statistical analyses and bioanalyses contemplated by the
−Removed: clinical trial protocol or any analysis otherwise agreed upon by the parties.
−Removed: The agreement may be terminated by either party (i) in
−Removed: the event of an uncured material breach by the other party, (ii) in the event the other party is insolvent or in bankruptcy
−Removed: proceedings or (iii) for safety reasons.
−Removed: Upon termination, the licenses granted to us to use nivolumab in the clinical trial
−Removed: will terminate.
−Removed: The agreement contains representations, warranties, undertakings and indemnities customary for a transaction of
−Removed: On April 12, 2019,
−Removed: we entered into a separate agreement with BMS on terms similar to the terms set forth in the agreement described above, pursuant
−Removed: to which BMS will provide, at no cost to us, nivolumab for use in our Phase 1 clinical trial of RP2 in combination with nivolumab.
−Removed: On May 29, 2018,
−Removed: we entered into a Master Clinical Trial Collaboration and Supply Agreement with Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc., or Regeneron.
−Removed: Pursuant to the agreement we agreed to undertake one or more clinical trials with Regeneron for the administration of our product
−Removed: candidates in combination with cemiplimab, an anti-PD-1 therapy developed by Regeneron, across multiple solid tumor types, the
−Removed: first of which is our ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial testing RP1 in combination with cemiplimab versus cemiplimab alone in
−Removed: patients with CSCC.
−Removed: Each clinical trial will be conducted pursuant to an agreed study plan which, among other things, will identify
−Removed: the name of the sponsor and which party will manage the particular study, and include the protocol, the budget and a schedule of
−Removed: clinical obligations.
−Removed: The first study plan related to the Phase 2 clinical trial in CSCC has been agreed.
−Removed: Pursuant to the terms
−Removed: of the agreement, each party granted the other party a non-exclusive license of their respective intellectual property and agreed
−Removed: to contribute the necessary resources needed to fulfill their respective obligations, in each case, under the terms of agreed
−Removed: Development costs of a particular clinical trial will be split equally.
−Removed: The agreement contains representations, warranties,
−Removed: undertakings and indemnities customary for a transaction of this nature.
−Removed: The agreement also contains certain covenants that restrict
−Removed: us from entering into a third-party arrangement with respect to the use of our product candidates in combination with an anti-PD-1
−Removed: therapy and that restrict Regeneron from entering into a third-party arrangement with respect to the use of cemiplimab in combination
−Removed: with an HSV-1 virus, in each case, for the treatment of a tumor type that is the subject of a clinical trial to which the covenants
−Removed: Unless otherwise mutually agreed in a future study plan, these covenants are only applicable to our ongoing Phase 2

−Removed: The agreement may be
−Removed: terminated by either party if (i) there is no active study plan for which a final study report has not been completed, (ii) the
−Removed: parties have not entered into a study plan for an additional clinical trial within a period of time after the delivery of the most
−Removed: recent final study report or (iii) in the event of a material breach.
−Removed: Critical accounting policies and significant
−Removed: judgments and estimates
−Removed: Our management’s
−Removed: discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which
−Removed: have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
−Removed: The preparation of our consolidated
−Removed: financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
−Removed: assets and liabilities, costs and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our consolidated financial
−Removed: We base our estimates on historical experience, known trends and events and various other factors that we believe are
−Removed: reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets
−Removed: and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
−Removed: We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.
−Removed: Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
−Removed: While our significant
−Removed: accounting policies are described in greater detail in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere
−Removed: in this Quarterly Report, we believe that the following accounting policies are those most critical to the judgments and estimates
−Removed: used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: research and development expenses
−Removed: As part of the process
−Removed: of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our accrued research and development expenses.
−Removed: This process involves reviewing open contracts and purchase orders, communicating with our personnel to identify services that
−Removed: have been performed on our behalf and estimating the level of service performed and the associated cost incurred for the service
−Removed: when we have not yet been invoiced or otherwise notified of actual costs.
−Removed: The majority of our service providers invoice us in arrears
−Removed: for services performed, on a pre-determined schedule or when contractual milestones are met;
−Removed: however, some require advanced payments.
−Removed: We make estimates of our accrued expenses as of each balance sheet date in the consolidated financial statements based on facts
−Removed: and circumstances known to us at that time.
−Removed: Examples of estimated accrued research and development expenses include fees paid to:
−Removed: ● CROs in connection with performing research activities and conducting preclinical studies and clinical
−Removed: trials on our behalf;
−Removed: ● CMOs in connection with the production of preclinical and clinical trial materials;
−Removed: ● investigative sites or other service providers in connection with clinical trials;
−Removed: ● vendors in connection with preclinical and clinical development activities;
−Removed: ● vendors related to product manufacturing and development and distribution of preclinical and clinical
−Removed: We base our expenses
−Removed: related to preclinical studies and clinical trials on our estimates of the services received and efforts expended pursuant to
−Removed: quotes and contracts with multiple CMOs and CROs that supply, conduct and manage preclinical studies and clinical trials on our
−Removed: The financial terms of these agreements are subject to negotiation, vary from contract to contract and may result in uneven
−Removed: payment flows.
−Removed: There may be instances in which payments made to our vendors will exceed the level of services provided and result
−Removed: in a prepayment of the expense.
−Removed: Payments under some of these contracts depend on factors such as the successful enrollment of
−Removed: patients and the completion of clinical trial milestones.
−Removed: In accruing service fees, we estimate the time period over which services
−Removed: will be performed and the level of effort to be expended in each period.
−Removed: If the actual timing of the performance of services or
−Removed: the level of effort varies from the estimate, we adjust the accrual or the amount of prepaid expenses accordingly.
−Removed: do not expect our estimates to be materially different from amounts actually incurred, our understanding of the status and timing
−Removed: of services performed relative to the actual status and timing of services performed may vary and may result in reporting amounts
−Removed: that are too high or too low in any particular period.
−Removed: To date, there have not been any material adjustments to our prior estimates
−Removed: of accrued research and development expenses.
−Removed: Stock-based compensation
−Removed: We measure stock-based
−Removed: awards granted to employees and directors based on their fair value on the date of the grant and recognize compensation expense
−Removed: for those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the respective award.
−Removed: We have to date
−Removed: only issued stock-based awards with service-based vesting conditions and record the expense for these awards using the straight-line
−Removed: The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model,
−Removed: which requires inputs based on certain subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility, the expected term
−Removed: of the option, the risk-free interest rate for a period that approximates the expected term of the option, and our expected dividend
−Removed: See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report
−Removed: for more information.
−Removed: Forfeitures are accounted for as they occur.
−Removed: The fair value of each stock-based award is estimated on the
−Removed: date of grant based on the fair value of our common stock on that same date.
−Removed: Prior to the adoption
−Removed: of ASC 2018-07 on April 1, 2019, for stock-based awards granted to consultants and non-employees, we recognize compensation
−Removed: expense over the period during which services are rendered by such non-employees and consultants until completed.
−Removed: At the end of
−Removed: each financial reporting period prior to completion of the service, the fair value of these awards is remeasured using the then-current
−Removed: fair value of our common stock and updated assumption inputs in the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
−Removed: After the adoption
−Removed: of ASC 2018-07, for stock-based awards granted to consultants and non-employees, we measure stock-based these awards based on their
−Removed: fair value on the date of the grant and recognizes compensation expense for those awards over the requisite service period, which
−Removed: is generally the vesting period of the respective award.
−Removed: We have to date only issued stock-based awards with service-based vesting
−Removed: conditions and record the expense for these awards using the straight-line method.
−Removed: The fair value of each stock option grant is
−Removed: estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires inputs based on certain subjective
−Removed: assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility, the expected term of the option, the risk-free interest rate for a
−Removed: period that approximates the expected term of the option, and our expected dividend yield.
−Removed: We classify stock-based
−Removed: compensation expense in our consolidated statements of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s payroll
−Removed: costs are classified or in which the award recipient’s service payments are classified.
−Removed: Off-balance sheet arrangements
−Removed: We did not have any
−Removed: off-balance sheet arrangements during the periods presented, and we do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements,
−Removed: as defined in the rules and regulations of the SEC.
−Removed: Recently issued accounting pronouncements
−Removed: A description of recently
−Removed: issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations is disclosed in Note 2
−Removed: to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
−Removed: Emerging growth company status
−Removed: As an “emerging
−Removed: growth company,”
−Removed: the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 permits us to take advantage of an extended transition period
−Removed: to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies until those standards would otherwise apply to
−Removed: private companies.
−Removed: We have irrevocably elected to “opt out”
−Removed: of this provision and, as a result, we will comply with
−Removed: new or revised accounting standards when they are required to be adopted by public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
−Removed: Quantitative and Qualitative
−Removed: Disclosures about Market Risks.
−Removed: Not applicable.
