Advaxis Provides 2017 Business Outlook
PRINCETON, N.J., Jan. 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Advaxis, Inc. (ADXS), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing cancer immunotherapies, today issued its 2017 business outlook to provide an overview of anticipated events and key milestones for the coming year, as well as a look back at clinical and business highlights from 2016.
Advaxis made significant strides in its clinical development programs and expanded its pipeline with additional preclinical assets in 2016. The company’s lead product candidate, axalimogene filolisbac, received Fast Track designation and a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) for the global Phase 3 AIM2CERV study, a randomized study of axalimogene filolisbac following chemoradiation in patients with high-risk, locally advanced cervical cancer (HRLACC). Also in 2016, axalimogene filolisbac was classified as an advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMP) for the treatment of cervical cancer by the European Medicines Agency's (EMA) Committee for Advanced Therapies (CAT). Late in 2016, the company initiated AIM2CERV and announced positive, final data from the GOG-0265 Phase 2 trial that supports pursuing a second global Phase 3 study in a metastatic recurrent cervical cancer. Also in 2016, Advaxis entered into a collaboration with Amgen Inc. (Amgen) for the global development and commercialization of Advaxis’ preclinical neoantigen technology, ADXS-NEO, to create a personalized approach to cancer treatment.
In 2016, Advaxis expanded its capabilities and added significant resources to support execution of two global registrational clinical trials and future commercialization of its immuno-oncology products. The company added close to $100 million in capital from proceeds from the Amgen collaboration, a direct placement and a state grant. Advaxis expanded its management team in 2016 with the appointment of Chris Duke as Chief Operating Officer, and added approximately 30 more employees in key areas, as the company grew its headcount to 80 over the course of the year. In September, the company completed the buildout of its clinical manufacturing facility to produce clinical trial supplies and expanded its research laboratory facility. Also, the company began construction of its commercial manufacturing facility, all at its Princeton headquarters.
2017 OPERATIONAL MILESTONES
Advaxis anticipates the following development milestones in 2017:
Clinical Operations
Axalimogene Filolisbac

About Advaxis, Inc.
Located in Princeton, N.J., Advaxis, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing multiple cancer immunotherapies based on its proprietary Lm Technology. The Lm Technology, using bioengineered live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) bacteria, is the only known cancer immunotherapy agent shown in preclinical studies to both generate cancer fighting T cells directed against cancer antigens and neutralize Tregs and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) that protect the tumor microenvironment from immunologic attack and contribute to tumor growth. Advaxis' lead Lm Technology immunotherapy, axalimogene filolisbac, targets HPV-associated cancers and is in clinical trials for three potential indications: Phase 3 in invasive cervical cancer, Phase 2 in head and neck cancer, and Phase 2 in anal cancer. The FDA has granted axalimogene filolisbac orphan drug designation for each of these three clinical settings, as well as Fast Track designation for adjuvant therapy for HRLACC patients and a Special Protocol Assessment for the Phase 3 AIM2CERV trial in HRLACC patients. Axalimogene filolisbac has also been classified as an advanced therapy medicinal product for the treatment of cervical cancer by the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Advanced Therapies. Advaxis has two additional immunotherapy products: ADXS-PSA in prostate cancer and ADXS-HER2 in HER2 expressing solid tumors, in human clinical development. In addition, Advaxis and Amgen are developing ADXS-NEO, a preclinical investigational cancer immunotherapy treatment designed to activate a patient's immune system to respond against the unique mutations, or neoepitopes, contained in and identified from each individual patient's tumor, with plans to enter the clinic in 2017."
