IMMUNO-ONCOLOGY REVOLUTION

“This year marks a turning point in cancer, as long-sought efforts to unleash the immune system against tumors are paying off. That's what made Science's… Breakthrough of the Year. In celebrating cancer immunotherapy… harnessing the immune system to battle tumors… to transform biological insights into lifesaving drugs…” Jennifer Couzin-Frankel, Staff Writer Science Magazine, 20 Dec 2013

CANCURE PIPELINE

  • Series A to fund the first 18 months of development; planned Series B to fund the next 18 months of clinical

trials for each lead product candidate to achieve maximal value uplift.

  • CNC118 has completed a pilot Phase 1 human clinical trial. Series A will fund the manufacturing of CNC118 for

entry into a Phase 1/2 human clinical trial; Series B will fund that clinical trial.

  • CNC225 and CNC332 have demonstrated efficacy in animal models. Series A will fund their formal preclinical

development for entry into Phase 1 human clinical trials; Series B will fund both clinical trials.

Cancure Limited Series A Capital Raise – November 2015

  • Genvax cancer vaccines “train” natural immune T-cells to detect and eliminate

cancer cells.

  • Generates many T-cell populations against various cancer cell targets, with

potential for immunological memory to prevent cancer recurrence.

  • Being developed for the treatment of advanced-stage malignant melanoma.
  • Off-the-shelf therapy due to high genetic compatibility with cancer patients.
  • Designed for combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors such as Keytruda

and with other cancer drugs to increase patient response rates.

  • CNC118 was well tolerated in a pilot, Ph1 human clinical trial with nine patients.
  • As a single agent, CNC118 showed 44% clinical benefit.
  • Proprietary manufacturing methods and broad patent coverage.

  • Galectins are proteins that block cancer-fighting immune cells. Galectin-1 is

secreted by cancer cells, and is highly expressed in metastatic tumours.

  • CNC225 blocks the cancer-promoting activity of galectin-1, and also inhibits

the growth of blood vessels to the tumour.

  • High potency analog of a clinically validated drug with minimal side-effects.
  • Patent protected in major markets for use in cancer therapy.
  • Encouraging efficacy in mouse models of colon and breast cancer.
  • 100% survival of mice treated with triple combination of a Genvax-type

vaccine and CNC225 with an immune checkpoint inhibitor.

  • Galectins are relatively unexploited drug targets.

“ALL ABOUT” DRUG COMBINATIONS

“It will likely be all about combinations: immunotherapy combinations or targeted combinations. We will also be figuring out the sequencing of those combinations… Even now, we can begin qualifying and quantifying patients in terms of complete responses [cures]… … Because of the successes with immune checkpoint inhibitors [ICIs] in cancer immunotherapy, many new agents and strategies, including combination approaches, are being developed at a fast pace.”

TRIPLE COMBINATION THERAPY

  • In vivo demonstration of synergistic effects of combining a prototype Genvax vaccine (mouse) and

CNC225 with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) in a mouse model of colon cancer. In this well established model, survival to 60 days is considered an experimental cure.

  • The triple combination cured all (100%) of the mice with colon cancer. In contrast, treatment with

ICI alone only cured 30% of the mice. Mouse model of colon cancer Days of survival % Surviving mice

100% of the mice were cured with the triple combination. 30% of the mice were cured with ICI alone. Triple: ICI + Prototype Genvax vaccine + CNC225 Prototype Genvax vaccine + CNC225 ICI alone Control untreated

  • CNC332 is a targeted anti-cancer agent.
  • Vitamin E analog that selectively targets tumour cells’ mitochondria, the cellular

subcomponents that produce bioenergy.

  • Mitochondria are critical for cell survival, and are therefore recognised as

potentially valuable drug targets for cancer therapy.

  • CNC332 causes cancer cells to self-destruct by natural “apoptosis”, and has

demonstrated anti-cancer efficacy in mouse models.

  • One case of compassionate use of Mitocans prototype CNC331 for treatment
  • f inoperable mesothelioma – oncologist reported “dramatic clinical response”.
  • Request from US National Cancer Institute (NCI) to conduct studies at NCI.
  • 2 patent families with coverage in major markets.
  • Proprietary manufacturing methods will enhance market exclusivity.
