NEWS -- Navidea Biopharmaceuticals Announces Acceptance of Abstract for Presentation at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Annual Meeting
DUBLIN, Ohio, May 24, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE) -- Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: NAVB) (“Navidea” or the “Company”), a company focused on the development of precision immunodiagnostic agents and immunotherapeutics, today announced acceptance of its abstract titled, “TAM Targeted Imaging Agents Binding CD206 and Selective Blocking of Off Target Liver Localization” for presentation at this year’s Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (“SNMMI”) Annual Meeting. This work was performed as part of an ongoing research collaboration with the University of Alabama at Birmingham (“UAB”), in the laboratory of Dr. Suzanne Lapi, Professor and Vice Chair of Research in the UAB Department of Radiology. The poster will be presented by Dr. Jennifer Bartels of UAB.
This year’s annual SNMMI meeting will be held June 11-14 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The presentation will take place Saturday, June 11, from 6 pm – 8 pm PDT (abstract ID 197; program ID 2862). The abstract will be accessible on the SNMMI’s Annual Meeting website prior to the meeting (https://am.snmmi.org/iMIS/SNMMI-AM).
The objectives of this preclinical study were to evaluate tumor localization of two new CD206 targeted mannosylated dextran (Navidea’s Manocept platform) imaging agents as well as an approach to reduce uptake of these imaging agents by the liver. The new imaging agents were labeled with gallium-68 (“68Ga”) to enable positron emission tomography (“PET”) imaging. The ultimate goals are to develop next generation Manocept imaging agents that offer improved on-target localization and reduced off-target localization. CD206 is a receptor expressed primarily on activated macrophages, including tumor associated macrophages (“TAMs”), as well as the Kupffer cells of the liver. TAM-targeted Manocept imaging enables imaging of tumors. The information gained from these experiments also suggests strategies to improve targeted delivery of therapeutic payloads to TAMs and other clinically significant targets, while simultaneously reducing off-target liver toxicity.
The experiments described in the poster evaluated the biodistribution in mice with and without tumors of the new 68Ga-labeled Manocept imaging agents that differed in their molecular weights. Also evaluated were the effects on their biodistributions of prior administration of unlabeled constructs or a construct designed to specifically block off-target liver localization. Results showed that the amount of the two imaging agents that localized to tumors differed significantly. Also, pretreatment with the construct designed to selectively block liver localization did significantly reduced liver localization of the 68Ga-labeled imaging agents without reducing their localizations to tumors.
Dr. Suzanne Lapi said, “My research group and I are pleased to present this collaborative work with Navidea at SNMMI and to continue to further advance this project with possible far reaching medical imaging and commercial potentials.”
Dr. Michael Rosol, Chief Medical Officer for Navidea, said, “We are delighted by the opportunity to present these results at this internationally recognized meeting.” Dr. Rosol continued, “This is another example in a line of research collaborations we have had with the highest level of researchers at top tier institutions that is resulting in work advancing our platform technology. These new technologies suggest exciting new applications in medical imaging and possibly also new therapeutic strategies.”

NEWS -- Navidea Biopharmaceuticals Announces Acceptance of Abstract for Presentation at the Tumor Myeloid-Directed Therapies Summit Annual Meeting
DUBLIN, Ohio, May 23, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: NAVB) ("Navidea" or the "Company"), a company focused on the development of precision immunodiagnostic agents and immunotherapeutics, today announced acceptance of its abstract titled, "CD206 Targeted Delivery of Bisphosphonate Payloads Alter Human Macrophage Phenotypes Towards M1-like" for presentation of a poster at this year’s Tumor Myeloid-Directed Therapies Summit.
The 2nd annual Tumor Myeloid-Directed Therapies Summit meeting will be held June 14-16, 2022 in Boston, MA. The presentation will take place Tuesday, June 14. Meeting information can be found on the conference website (https://tumor-myeloid-therapeutics.com).
The poster will present information related to the synthesis of two novel bisphosphonate drugs that have been attached to Navidea’s CD206-targeted drug delivery platform molecule, Manocept. These constructs use a novel degradable linker to release the therapy only once they have been internalized into a CD206-expressing cell, such as a tumor associated macrophage. The new therapeutic constructs were evaluated in human macrophage cell culture assays to compare the ability of the new constructs with unbound free therapy to shift the phenotype of macrophages toward a proinflammatory gene expression pattern. The new drug delivery constructs successfully shifted the phenotypes of human macrophages towards a proinflammatory state and compared favorably to the unbound free therapy. The new drug constructs also induced a highly significant reduction in macrophage expression of signal regulatory protein alpha ("SIRPa"), the receptor for the "don’t eat me" signal that, when activated, suppresses the ability of macrophages to attack and phagocytize disease associated cells such as cancer cells. The ability to induce this type of phenotypic change in macrophages could have far-reaching applications in cancer immunotherapy.
Dr. Michael Rosol, Chief Medical Officer for Navidea, said, "These new therapeutic constructs demonstrate the power of our adaptable platform technology to deliver a wide array of small molecule payloads in a targeted fashion to macrophages involved in the propagation of a variety of severe illnesses including cancer."

About CytoSorbents Corporation (NASDAQ: CTSO)
CytoSorbents Corporation is a leader in the treatment of life-threatening conditions in intensive care and cardiac surgery using blood purification. Its flagship product, CytoSorb®, is approved in the European Union with distribution in more than 70 countries around the world as an extracorporeal cytokine adsorber designed to reduce the "cytokine storm" or "cytokine release syndrome" seen in common critical illnesses that may result in massive inflammation, organ failure and patient death. These are conditions where the risk of death can be extremely high, yet few to no effective treatments exist. CytoSorb is also being used during and after cardiothoracic surgery to remove inflammatory mediators that can lead to post-operative complications, including multiple organ failure. More than 170,000 cumulative CytoSorb devices have been utilized as of March 31, 2022. CytoSorb was originally introduced into the European Union under CE-Mark as a first-in-kind cytokine adsorber. Additional CE-Mark label expansions were received for the removal of bilirubin and myoglobin in clinical conditions such as liver disease and trauma, respectively, and both ticagrelor and rivaroxaban during cardiothoracic surgery. CytoSorb has also received FDA Emergency Use Authorization in the United States for use in adult critically ill COVID-19 patients with imminent or confirmed respiratory failure. The DrugSorb™-ATR Antithrombotic Removal System, which is based on the same polymer technology as CytoSorb, has also been granted FDA Breakthrough Designation for the removal of ticagrelor, as well as FDA Breakthrough Designation for the removal of the direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) drugs, apixaban and rivaroxaban, in a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit during urgent cardiothoracic surgery. The Company has initiated two FDA approved pivotal trials designed to support U.S. marketing approval of DrugSorb-ATR. The first is the 120-patient, 30 center STAR-T (Safe and Timely Antithrombotic Removal-Ticagrelor) randomized, controlled trial evaluating the ability of intraoperative DrugSorb-ATR use to reduce perioperative bleeding risk in patients on ticagrelor undergoing cardiothoracic surgery. The second is the 120-patient, 30 center STAR–D (Safe and Timely Antithrombotic Removal-Direct Oral Anticoagulants) randomized, controlled trial, evaluating the intraoperative use of DrugSorb–ATR to reduce perioperative bleeding risk in patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery on direct oral anticoagulants, including apixaban and rivaroxaban.
CytoSorbents' purification technologies are based on biocompatible, highly porous polymer beads that can actively remove toxic substances from blood and other bodily fluids by pore capture and surface adsorption. Its technologies have received non-dilutive grant, contract, and other funding of more than $39.5 million from DARPA, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), Air Force Material Command (USAF/AFMC), and others. The Company has numerous marketed products and products under development based upon this unique blood purification technology protected by many issued U.S. and international patents and registered trademarks, and multiple patent applications pending, including ECOS-300CY®, CytoSorb-XL™, HemoDefend-RBC™, HemoDefend-BGA™, VetResQ®, K+ontrol™, DrugSorb™, DrugSorb™-ATR, ContrastSorb, and others.

The addition of Elusys’ ANTHIM®, a treatment for inhalation anthrax, complements our infectious disease product portfolio, which includes our RapidVax® platform, which is designed to target emerging biological threats. Shortly after the completion of the Elusys acquisition, we finalized our first international contract with the Canadian government to deliver ANTHIM® to their national stockpile. We are now pursuing additional opportunities to expand ANTHIM® distribution abroad.”
“At the same time, we continue to expand our biomanufacturing and bioanalytic capabilities. We recently unveiled plans for a new 500,000 square foot commercial/biodefense biomanufacturing facility in Manhattan, Kansas. In addition to servicing our own product pipeline, we plan to operate as a full-service Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) to support other biopharma companies. Moreover, we remain on track for the grand opening of our San Antonio facility in Q2/22.”
Mr. Wolf added, “The NightHawk ecosystem is truly unique among small biopharmaceutical companies. We look forward to providing further updates on our progress later this year.”

NEWS -- Vivos Inc. Provides Intellectual Property Protection Update
Richland WA, May 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vivos Inc. (OTCQB: RDGL), Vivos Inc is pleased to report that it expanded its intellectual property protection on several fronts.
Our patent team filed our particle patent in more than ten patent offices that collectively cover 63 countries throughout the world. This year we also filed a provisional patent number 63-299,930 giving us broader protection on recent and projected developments on both our hydrogel and our particle components. This week we filed a continuation-in-part applications number 1774054 in the USA to expand the claims on our particle patent.
We are near completion on additional development work and intend to file expanded particle claims internationally using the Patent Cooperation Treaty, PCT, process. Additionally, building on the substantial refinements to our hydrogel during the past two years, we also plan to file a new utility patent to protect these proprietary developments. We anticipate the filings will be completed during the third quarter.
In closing Dr. Korenko stated, “We are continually striving to enhance and grow our Intellectual property portfolio to build value to our stakeholders and to strengthen our position as an emerging leader in precision radionuclide therapy.”
About Vivos Inc. (OTCQB: RDGL)
Vivos Inc. has developed an Yttrium-90 based injectable brachytherapy device, for the treatment of tumors in animals (IsoPet®) and in humans (RadioGel™). Brachytherapy uses highly localized radiation to destroy cancerous tumors by placing a radioactive isotope directly inside the treatment area using the company’s proprietary hydrogel technology. The injection delivers therapeutic radiation from within the tumor without the entrance skin dose and associated side effects of treatment that characterize external-beam radiation therapy. This feature allows safe delivery of higher doses needed for treating both non-resectable and radiation-resistant cancers.
RadioGel™ is a hydrogel liquid containing tiny yttrium-90 phosphate particles that may be administered directly into a tumor. The hydrogel is an yttrium-90 carrier at room temperature that gels within the tumor interstitial spaces after injection to keep the radiation sources safely in place. The short-range beta radiation from yttrium-90 localizes the dose within the treatment area so that normal organs and tissues are not adversely affected.
RadioGel™ also has a short half-life – delivering more than 90% of its therapeutic radiation within 10 days. This compares favorably to other available treatment options requiring up to six weeks or more to deliver a full course of radiation therapy. Therapy can be safely administered as an out-patient procedure and the patient may return home without subsequent concern for radiation dose to family members.
The IsoPet® Solutions division used university veterinary hospitals to demonstrate the safety and therapeutic effectiveness for different animal cancers. Testing on feline sarcoma at the Washington State University was completed in 2018 and testing on canine soft tissue sarcomas at the University of Missouri was completed in 2019.
In 2018 the Company obtained confirmation from the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine that IsoPet® is classified as a medical device according to its intended use and means by which it achieves its intended purpose. The FDA also reviewed the product labeling which included canine and feline sarcomas as the initial indications for use. The FDA does not require pre-market approval for veterinary devices so no additional approval is required. Following the demonstration phase, Vivos is able to generate revenue through the sale of IsoPet® to University animal hospitals and private veterinary clinics.
IsoPet® for treating animals uses the same technology as RadioGel™ for treating humans. The Food and Drug Administration advised using different product names in order to avoid confusion and cross-use.

In particular, we may be impacted by business interruptions resulting from COVID-19 coronavirus, including operating, manufacturing supply chain, clinical trial and project development delays and disruptions, labour shortages, travel and shipping disruption, and shutdowns (including as a result of government regulation and prevention measures). It is unknown whether and how Oncolytics may be affected if the COVID-19 pandemic persists for an extended period of time. We may incur expenses or delays relating to such events outside of our control, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition. Investors should consult Oncolytics' quarterly and annual filings with the Canadian and U.S. securities commissions for additional information on risks and uncertainties relating to the forward-looking statements.

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® and SOLTI Present New Clinical Biomarker Data Demonstrating Pelareorep's Potential to Improve the Prognosis of Breast Cancer Patients at the ESMO Breast Cancer Meeting
Pelareorep treatment resulted in a favorable Risk of Recurrence Score (ROR-S) in 100% of evaluable patients compared to 55% at baseline in a window-of-opportunity study
Statistically significant increases in markers of tumor cell death and T cell activation observed following treatment with pelareorep-based combinations
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, May 4, 2022 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC) and SOLTI-Innovative Cancer Research today announced new clinical biomarker data demonstrating pelareorep's immunotherapeutic effects, synergy with checkpoint inhibition, and potential to improve the outlook for patients with HR+/HER2- breast cancer. The data, which are featured in a poster presentation at the 2022 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Breast Cancer Meeting, are from cohorts 1 and 2 of the AWARE-1 window-of-opportunity study in early-stage breast cancer patients.
Patients in AWARE-1's first two cohorts were treated with pelareorep and the aromatase inhibitor letrozole without (cohort 1), or with (cohort 2), the PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor atezolizumab approximately 21 days prior to the surgical resection of their tumors. Cohorts 1 and 2 of AWARE-1 exclusively enrolled patients with HR+/HER2- disease, the breast cancer subtype that Oncolytics intends to examine in a future registrational study. Previously reported results showed AWARE-1 met its primary translational endpoint, with cohort 2 achieving the pre-specified success criteria for treatment-induced increases in CelTIL score (link to the PR). CelTIL score is a metric for tumor inflammation and cellularity and is associated with improved clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients.
"The latest data from AWARE-1 further demonstrate pelareorep's potential to improve clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients through its ability to activate T cells and remodel the tumor microenvironment," said Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer of Oncolytics. "Notably, pelareorep treatment increased markers of tumor cell death and, perhaps even more impressive, 100% of evaluable pelareorep-treated patients had a favorable Risk of Recurrence Score (ROR-S) compared to 55% at baseline. Together, these latest AWARE-1 results further establish pelareorep's ability to attack tumors through multiple mechanisms."
Key data and conclusions from the ESMO Breast Cancer poster include:

NEWS -- Tokens.com Acquires Crypto Gaming Assets in Arcade Land and BitBrawl
TORONTO, May 03, 2022--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tokens.com Corp. (NEO Exchange Canada: COIN) (Frankfurt Stock Exchange: 76M) (OTCQB US: SMURF) ("Tokens.com" or "the Company"), a publicly-traded company that invests in Web3 crypto assets and businesses linked to the Metaverse and NFTs, is pleased to share that its subsidiary, Hulk Labs, has acquired play-to-earn crypto gaming assets in Arcade Land and BitBrawl.
The Hulk Labs team has identified Arcade Land and BitBrawl as being part of the next wave of play-to-earn games and platforms. The team has analyzed hundreds of play-to-earn projects and has identified indicators that determine these games to have the largest potential to attract wide audiences and provide outsized returns.
By identifying and investing in games at pre-launch, Hulk Labs secures an attractive entry point prior to the games’ popularization. Hulk Labs has acquired the marquee gaming assets via a variety of NFT marketplaces.
"The Hulk Labs division was created to find exciting, new, and emerging projects with potential for outsized growth in the play-to-earn space. We believe play-to-earn gaming is the future of online gaming and want to be positioned to capitalize by owning key assets in emerging games," commented Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Tokens.com. "By identifying these games as top tier projects we believe they will provide outsized appreciation and yield potential."
Hulk Labs has acquired a variety of Metaverse land parcels in multiple sizes in Arcade Land, a play-to-earn platform where players can build unique experiences on their parcel and allow other players to visit, hangout and play games. Landowners can build stores, place advertising and sell items on their parcel. In addition, the game’s land parcels hold yield earning potential, which will be determined by parcel size.
Hulk Labs has also acquired avatar NFTs in BitBrawl. BitBrawl has a limited number of NFT avatars, creating scarcity. Players earn BRWL tokens, the game's native token through player vs. player online combat, similar to Super Smash Brothers. Players can use the native coin for purchases in the game’s marketplace or cash out their tokens.
Hulk Labs plans to play BitBrawl via gaming guilds to earn token returns. Similar to staking, Tokens.com primarily invests in assets that will generate a yield.
"Significant NFT Project IP has been created over the last 18 months and we are positioning Hulk Labs to actively participate in this growing segment of the NFT market through projects providing experiences, potential revenue models and utility to the owners of Blue Chip NFT assets," said Joshua Doner, Chief NFT Officer of Tokens.com and Hulk Labs. "These game developers are building experiences for existing large communities of NFT owners, therefore, on the launch of the game, there is a larger total player base. This offers a big opportunity as each NFT community has thousands of NFT owners, each with their own audiences reaching millions through their respective social media followings."
Arcade Land is a Metaverse focused on gaming and the play-to-earn ecosystem. It is a land-based Metaverse with 10,000 unique plots where NFT holders can play games with friends. It is focused on interoperability and has signed dozens of partnerships and integrations with top NFT projects. Holders of Arcade Land NFTs get rewarded via tokens, NFTs, and drops of in-game assets. Investors in the ecosystem include Anti Fund, Infinity Ventures Crypto, and Mechanism Capital.
BitBrawl is an online competitive combat game built on the Solana blockchain. It is a player-vs-player game that enables users to compete against one another to earn BRWL tokens, the game's native currency. BitBrawl sold out of its 10,000 unique Brawler NFTs in 9 minutes and has raised investment capital from top funds including Alameda Research, Shima Capital and GSR.

NEWS -- CytoSorbents Awarded Preferred Supplier Agreement with Asklepios, One of the Largest Private Hospital Operators in Germany
MONMOUTH JUNCTION, N.J., May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- CytoSorbents Corporation (NASDAQ: CTSO), a leader in the treatment of life-threatening conditions in the intensive care unit and cardiac surgery using blood purification, announced that the Company has been awarded a new preferred supplier agreement for CytoSorb® with the Asklepios Group (Asklepios), one of the largest private hospital operators in Germany, following the majority acquisition of RHÖN-KLINIKUM AG in 2020.
CytoSorbents has entered into a 3-year preferred supplier agreement with Asklepios, making CytoSorb available without restrictions to all of the approximate 170 healthcare facilities across 14 states throughout Germany that Asklepios operates. This includes Asklepios Klinik St. Georg in Hamburg, Germany, which pioneered the use of CytoSorb to remove antithrombotic drugs during cardiothoracic surgery, and is well-known for their seminal publication on CytoSorb use for this application during emergency cardiac surgery in patients at high risk of bleeding.
Dr. Christian Steiner, Executive Vice President, Sales and Marketing of CytoSorbents stated, "We are excited to announce this agreement with Asklepios, as we are now their preferred supplier of hemoadsorption technology. With this new agreement, CytoSorbents now has preferred supplier agreements with the three largest hospital chains in Germany, providing an opportunity to further grow our business. These privately owned hospital chains are always seeking value-added therapies that provide both clinical and economic benefit to ensure the highest quality medical care for their patients while supporting profitable operations. I am convinced CytoSorb is helping these hospital chains achieve both objectives."
About Asklepios Group
Asklepios was established in 1985 and is now a leading private operator of hospitals in Germany. Asklepios' business activities have always been aimed at providing future-oriented medicine for patients based on the highest quality standards. Asklepios aspires to shape the future of medicine. One key to this lies also in digitalization. The Asklepios vision of a completely integrated digital healthcare group is summed up with the term "Digital HealthyNear". The Group currently has around 170 healthcare facilities throughout Germany represented in 14 German federal states functioning as a nationwide network for holistic healthcare provision. These include acute care hospitals of all different care levels, university hospitals, specialist hospitals, prevention and aftercare, rehabilitation clinics and medical centers. In the 2021 financial year over 3.5 million patients were treated at the Asklepios Group's facilities. The company has more than 67,000 employees. For more information consult https://www.asklepios.com.
About CytoSorbents Corporation (NASDAQ: CTSO)
CytoSorbents Corporation is a leader in the treatment of life-threatening conditions in intensive care and cardiac surgery using blood purification. Its flagship product, CytoSorb®, is approved in the European Union with distribution in more than 70 countries around the world as an extracorporeal cytokine adsorber designed to reduce the "cytokine storm" or "cytokine release syndrome" seen in common critical illnesses that may result in massive inflammation, organ failure and patient death. These are conditions where the risk of death can be extremely high, yet few to no effective treatments exist. CytoSorb is also being used during and after cardiothoracic surgery to remove inflammatory mediators that can lead to post-operative complications, including multiple organ failure. More than 162,000 cumulative CytoSorb devices have been utilized as of December 31, 2021. CytoSorb was originally introduced into the European Union under CE-Mark as a first-in-kind cytokine adsorber. Additional CE-Mark label expansions were received for the removal of bilirubin and myoglobin in clinical conditions such as liver disease and trauma, respectively, and both ticagrelor and rivaroxaban during cardiothoracic surgery. CytoSorb has also received FDA Emergency Use Authorization in the United States for use in adult critically ill COVID-19 patients with imminent or confirmed respiratory failure. The DrugSorb™-ATR Antithrombotic Removal System, which is based on the same polymer technology as CytoSorb, has also been granted FDA Breakthrough Designation for the removal of ticagrelor, as well as FDA Breakthrough Designation for the removal of the direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) drugs, apixaban and rivaroxaban, in a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit during urgent cardiothoracic surgery. The Company has initiated two FDA approved pivotal trials designed to support U.S. marketing approval of DrugSorb-ATR. The first is the 120-patient, 30 center STAR-T (Safe and Timely Antithrombotic Removal-Ticagrelor) randomized, controlled trial evaluating the ability of intraoperative DrugSorb-ATR use to reduce perioperative bleeding risk in patients on ticagrelor undergoing cardiothoracic surgery. The second is the 120-patient, 30 center STAR-D (Safe and Timely Antithrombotic Removal-Direct Oral Anticoagulants) randomized, controlled trial, evaluating the intraoperative use of DrugSorb–ATR to reduce perioperative bleeding risk in patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgery on direct oral anticoagulants, including apixaban and rivaroxaban.
CytoSorbents' purification technologies are based on biocompatible, highly porous polymer beads that can actively remove toxic substances from blood and other bodily fluids by pore capture and surface adsorption. Its technologies have received non-dilutive grant, contract, and other funding of more than $39.5 million from DARPA, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), Air Force Material Command (USAF/AFMC), and others. The Company has numerous marketed products and products under development based upon this unique blood purification technology protected by many issued U.S. and international patents and registered trademarks, and multiple patent applications pending, including ECOS-300CY®, CytoSorb-XL™, HemoDefend-RBC™, HemoDefend-BGA™, VetResQ®, K+ontrol™, DrugSorb™, DrugSorb™-ATR, ContrastSorb, and others.

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® and SOLTI Announce Upcoming Poster Presentation at the European Society for Medical Oncology Breast Cancer Meeting
SAN DIEGO, Calif. and CALGARY, AB, May 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC) and SOLTI-Innovative Cancer Research today announced the acceptance of an abstract for a poster presentation at the upcoming European Society for Medical Oncology Breast Cancer Meeting, which is taking place both online and in-person at hub27 – Messe Berlin in Berlin, Germany from May 3-5, 2022.
The accepted abstract (#364) is available on the ESMO Breast Cancer Meeting website. Included in the abstract are new results from cohort 1 and cohort 2 of the AWARE-1 study, a collaboration between Oncolytics Biotech and SOLTI, each of which enrolled ten HR+/HER2- early-stage breast cancer patients. These patients were treated with pelareorep and the aromatase inhibitor letrozole without (cohort 1) or with (cohort 2) the PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor atezolizumab. Evaluation of these cohorts was the primary focus of AWARE-1 as HR+/HER2- is the breast cancer subtype Oncolytics intends to investigate in a future registrational study.
Results of this exploratory study described in the abstract show pelareorep's potential to induce an inflamed tumor phenotype and its synergy with atezolizumab. They also support pelareorep's immune-based mechanism of action and suggest that the combination of pelareorep and atezolizumab may improve outcomes in breast cancer. Additional details on analyses and results described in the abstract will be provided following the publication of its corresponding poster, in accordance with the ESMO Breast Cancer Meeting's embargo policies.
Details on the abstract and upcoming poster presentation are shown below.
Title: The oncolytic virus pelareorep primes the tumor microenvironment for checkpoint blockade therapy in early breast cancer patients - results from AWARE-1 study
Category: Biomarkers and translational research and precision medicine
Abstract Number: 364
Presentation Date: May 4, 2022
Presentation Time: 12:15 p.m. CET
About AWARE-1
AWARE-1 was an open-label window-of-opportunity study in early-stage breast cancer. The study combined pelareorep, without or with atezolizumab, and the standard of care therapy according to breast cancer subtype. Tumor tissue was collected from patients as part of their initial breast cancer diagnosis, again on day three following initial treatment, and finally at three weeks following treatment, on the day their tumor is surgically resected. Key objectives of the study were to confirm that pelareorep is acting as a novel immunotherapy, to evaluate potential synergy between pelareorep and checkpoint blockade, and to collect biomarker data. The primary endpoint of the translational study was overall CelTIL score (a measurement of cellularity and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes). Secondary endpoints for the study included safety and tumor and blood-based biomarkers.
About Oncolytics Biotech Inc.
Oncolytics is a biotechnology company developing pelareorep, an intravenously delivered immunotherapeutic agent. This compound induces anti-cancer immune responses and promotes an inflamed tumor phenotype -- turning "cold" tumors "hot" -- through innate and adaptive immune responses to treat a variety of cancers.
Pelareorep has demonstrated synergies with immune checkpoint inhibitors and may also be synergistic with other approved oncology treatments. Oncolytics is currently conducting and planning clinical trials evaluating pelareorep in combination with checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies in solid and hematological malignancies as it advances towards a registration study in metastatic breast cancer.

NEWS -- Heat Biologics (NightHawk Biosciences) Announces that its Elusys Therapeutics Subsidiary has Executed a Contract to Deliver ANTHIM® to the Canadian Government
New contract marks the first international sale of ANTHIM® and follows recent acquisition of Elusys by NightHawk
DURHAM, N.C., April 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heat Biologics, Inc. (NYSE American: HTBX) (to be renamed “NightHawk Biosciences”), a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on developing first-in-class therapies to modulate the immune system, today announced to shareholders that its Elusys Therapeutics subsidiary has finalized a contract with the Canadian government to deliver ANTHIM® (obiltoxaximab for injection), a treatment for inhalation anthrax, for use against a potential anthrax attack.
ANTHIM® will be delivered to Canada’s National Emergency Strategic Stockpile under a procurement contract totaling CAD $7.9 million i. The goal of this program is to establish a Canadian supply of Anthim for use as a medical countermeasure against natural and man-made anthrax biothreats.
Jeff Wolf, CEO of Nighthawk and its Elusys subsidiary, commented, “We are excited to announce this first international contract to supply ANTHIM® to Canada, which is particularly timely given the growing global geopolitical uncertainty and emerging threats. This agreement follows our recent acquisition of Elusys, which complements our broader biodefense initiatives. We are focused on expanding sales of ANTHIM®, abroad and this first international contract is an important validation of our strategy.”
According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), if a bioterrorist attack were to happen, bacillus anthracis, the bacteria that causes anthrax, would be one of the biological agents most likely to be used, since these spores are easily found in nature, can be produced in a lab, and may remain in the environment for a prolonged period. In recent Congressional testimony, Gerald Parker, Associate Dean of Texas A&M’s College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, indicated that the top three bioterrorist threats were “anthrax, anthrax, and anthrax.”
Elusys has previously established a successful track record collaborating with U.S. government agencies including the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) and the Department of Defense (DOD). To date, Elusys has been awarded over $400 million in research and development grants, contracts and procurement orders from BARDA and SNS through ongoing, multi-year partnerships with the U.S. government.
This latest award follows NightHawk’s recent announcement of its planned 500,000+ square foot biodefense-focused biologics biomanufacturing facility in Manhattan, Kansas, which is being designed to scale production of ANTHIM®, among other uses.
About ANTHIM®
Anthrax is a life-threatening infectious disease caused by Bacillus anthracis. Cases of inhalational anthrax in humans can occur through intentional spread of B. anthracis spores as a biowarfare or bioterrorism agent. B. anthracis spores introduced through the lungs lead to inhalational anthrax, which is deadly in humans.
ANTHIM® (obiltoxaximab for injection) is indicated in adult and pediatric patients for the treatment of inhalational anthrax due to Bacillus anthracis in combination with appropriate antibacterial drugs. ANTHIM® is indicated for post-exposure prophylaxis of inhalational anthrax due to B. anthracis when alternative therapies are not available or not appropriate. The effectiveness of ANTHIM® is based solely on efficacy studies in animal models of inhalational anthrax.
About Elusys Therapeutics
Elusys Therapeutics is focused on the development of antibody therapeutics for the treatment of infectious disease. ANTHIM®(obiltoxaximab), the company’s monoclonal antibody (mAb) anthrax antitoxin, received market clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in March 2016. In July 2020, Health Canada approved ANTHIM’s Extraordinary Use New Drug Submission for the treatment of inhalation anthrax. ANTHIM has also received marketing approved in the E.U. and the U.K., under the trade name of Obiltoxaximab SFL. For more information, please visit https://www.elusys.com.

NEWS -- Scorpion Biological Services Announces New Kansas Commercial Biomanufacturing Facility
MANHATTAN, Kan., April 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Biopharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) Scorpion Biological Services (Scorpion) today announced a planned development partnership with a private developer, the State of Kansas, and local and university affiliates, which will support the construction of a new biodefense-focused large molecule and biologics biomanufacturing facility in Manhattan, Kansas.
The 500,000 sq. ft. commercial biomanufacturing facility will service up to 144,000L cGMP capacity across 48 bioreactors
The $650 million commercial-scale facility, which will service approximately 144,000 liters of biomanufacturing capacity across 48 bioreactors, is being designed for large molecule biologics manufacturing.
The design and engineering of the facility is being led by CRB Group, a nationally recognized firm focused on designing and building biomanufacturing facilities. Realty Trust Group (RTG), a leading healthcare / life sciences real estate advisory and development firm, is serving as the lead developer on the project.
After considering locations in 23 states, the Scorpion leadership team selected Manhattan, Kansas, largely as a result of the city's concentration of biodefense organizations, including Kansas State University's Biosecurity Research Institute (BRI) and the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF) — the U.S. government's agricultural biothreat research laboratory. One specific goal of the facility will be to help scale production of ANTHIM®, an antitoxin against anthrax, which could be employed in defense against a potential anthrax attack.
To meet Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and Department of Defense requirements for the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS), Scorpion intends to start manufacturing ANTHIM by mid-2024. As such, the company is planning a phased building approach to complete the production train for ANTHIM first –– by April 2024 — with plans to complete a new train every 15 months thereafter. Scorpion projects that the Manhattan facility will be complete, fully functional and staffed by April 2027.
The facility is being designed to be as flexible and versatile as possible. The majority of the facility will be dedicated to commercial CDMO services, but the company is exploring the design of trains focused on other products for the SNS, among others, given that 70% of the drug products in the SNS will expire over the next four years. Where possible, Scorpion plans to use a U.S.-based supply chain, beginning with the decision to install Pall bioreactors.
David Halverson, President of Scorpion, said, "We are very excited to break ground on this new facility. There is a strong demand for world-class biomanufacturing, which we expect to continue well into the future. The 500,000 square foot Manhattan facility is being designed to service up to 144,000 liters across 48 bioreactors –– powered by an excellent Kansas workforce. We're looking forward to rapidly growing and expanding Scorpion, and Manhattan is the perfect location for our newest facility."
Upon completion, Scorpion projects that the facility will have a billion-dollar impact on the State of Kansas, and employ over 500 individuals, largely from the local Kansas talent pool. The company has begun a project to transfer bioprocessing programs from Texas A&M to Kansas State University and the Manhattan Area Technical College at the associate's, bachelor's, and graduate level to help train Scorpion's future workforce.
"We are thrilled and excited that Scorpion has chosen Kansas for this game-changing facility that will have a massive positive impact in our state," said Governor Laura Kelly. "Being in the center of the country, with quick access to either coast, there is no better state for Scorpion to locate in order to address potential threats to public health."
