Financials

Ultimovacs is a biotechnology company focused on developing a next generation cancer vaccine with virtually universal potential. Lead asset UV1 activates the immune system to recognise cancer cells that express hTERT, which is present in c 85–90% of all cancer types. For this reason, UV1 has broad potential in a variety of cancers and in combination with other treatments. The company’s R&D strategy is to combine UV1 with checkpoint inhibitors due to an expected treatment synergy. The broad R&D programme includes five Phase II trials in different solid tumours, which will enrol more than 600 patients in total. Readouts are expected over 2023–25. The most near-term catalyst for the share price is top-line readouts from the Phase II INITIUM study in malignant melanoma, which are on-track to be shared in March or April 2024.
