PDS Biotech is a clinical-stage immunotherapy company developing a growing pipeline of molecularly targeted cancer and infectious disease immunotherapies based on the Company’s proprietary Versamune® and Infectimune™ T-cell activating technology platforms. Our Versamune®-based products have demonstrated the potential to overcome the limitations of current immunotherapy by inducing in vivo, large quantities of high-quality, highly potent polyfunctional tumor specific CD4+ helper and CD8+ killer T-cells. PDS Biotech has developed multiple therapies, based on combinations of Versamune® and disease-specific antigens, designed to train the immune system to better recognize diseased cells and effectively attack and destroy them. The Company’s pipeline products address various cancers including HPV16-associated cancers (anal, cervical, head and neck, penile, vaginal, vulvar) and breast, colon, lung, prostate and ovarian cancers.

FY2023 Financial Results Included Updated Clinical Trial Strategy. PDS Reported a FY2023 loss of $44.3 million or $(1.43) per share, with cash on December 31, 2023, of $42.9 million. Importantly, the company changed its clinical development plan for PDS1010 and PDS01ADC. The Phase 3 VERSAMUNE-003 will not begin as we expected in 1H24. A Phase 3 trial testing the Triple-Therapy combination will be conducted instead.
Decision Was Driven By Data From Two Trials. PDS has completed two Phase 2 trials, its VERSATILE-002 trial and the Triple Combination Study conducted by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). VERSATILE-002 trial tested the combination of PDS0101 with Keytruda (pembrolizumab, a PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor), while the Triple Therapy Trial tested PDS0101, a checkpoint inhibitor, and PDS01ADC, a proprietary IL-12-derived molecule.
