BIOVAXYS COMPLETES THE ACQUISITION OF ALL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, IMMUNOTHERAPEUTICS PLATFORM TECHNOLOGY, AND CLINICAL STAGE ASSETS OF THE FORMER IMV INC.

With the transaction now complete, BioVaxys is working on integrating the acquired assets into the Company.  BioVaxys President and Chief Operating Officer Kenneth Kovan stated "We now have massive opportunities in oncology, infectious disease, allergy desensitization, and autoimmune diseases. Adding several clinical-stage programs was critical for us becoming a product-centric company, but there are always inherent risks with clinical programs, and they require significant investment. Maveropepimut-S has incredible potential and is a very important addition to our oncology pipeline."  Kovan further stated "Over the upcoming months our plan is to drive more organic growth by pursuing multiple licensing and partnership opportunities with the DPX™ and HapTenix© platforms. We will be identifying target partners where our solutions can address specific needs or gaps, making BioVaxys an attractive 'go-to' partner for targeted immunotherapies."

The Company has identified potential for DPX™ in improved mRNA vaccines, multivalent viral vaccines, vaccines for desensitizing immune response for peanut allergies, and immune system diseases.  Prior clinical studies by IMV have supported proof of concept and a superior immune response with a DPX™-RSV formulation, DPX™-rHA/DPX-FLU influenza vaccine, DPX™-packaged survivin/MAGE-Ag for advanced metastatic bladder cancer, and certain other infectious diseases.
