Fahar?

Thanks, Dan, and good morning, everyone. Today's call will focus primarily on our September clinical update of new data from the Phase 1-2 Ability Study of MDNA 11 our beta-only long-acting IL-2 super agonist. These data came from the early and mid-stage cohorts in the trial's dose escalation phase. While this portion of the study is designed primarily to evaluate safety and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in order to determine a recommended phase 2 dose, we have nonetheless seen clear evidence of MDNA11's monotherapy efficacy in tumors that are typically highly resistant to immunotherapy, an important finding at this early juncture of the trial. This evidence includes a confirmed partial response in a metastatic pancreatic cancer patient in the trial's fourth cohort, which is the first to employ the step-up dosing strategy we will be utilizing going forward. You may recall that on our last earnings call, we spoke about this patient having an unconfirmed partial response, as well as our eagerness to gain confirmation with a subsequent scan. With this confirmation in hand, we can now proudly say that we have demonstrated MDNA 11's single agent potential in a notoriously difficult to treat cancer, thereby achieving one of the ability studies core objectives. To fully understand the significance of this result, it's important to have context on the patient in which it was achieved as well as their treatment history and pancreatic cancer more broadly. This patient entered ability with pancreatic cancer that had metastasized to the liver despite having previously received surgery and treatment with three lines of systemic therapy. These therapies included six different chemotherapies as well as treatment with a checkpoint inhibitor, all of which were ultimately unsuccessful or not tolerated by the patient. That these lines of therapy were unsuccessful is unfortunately not surprising as pancreatic cancer is well known to be one of the most aggressive types of cancer with a five-year survival rate of only 11.5%, according to the U.S. National Cancer Institute. Additionally, pancreatic cancer rarely responds to single-agent immunotherapy. In fact, we are not aware of any published data showing efficacy with systemic administration of an IL-2 monotherapy in pancreatic cancer. We therefore view MDNA11's ability to generate a confirmed partial response in such a heavily pre-treated end-stage patient as an important finding that differentiates it as a potentially best-in-class IL-2 agonist and bodes well for the program moving forward. In addition to the confirmed partial response, we have observed tumor control in four other patients. in the ability studies low and mid-stage dose escalation cohorts for an overall tumor control rate of 36%. Patients achieving tumor control included one with metastatic melanoma as well as one with non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma and two with sarcomas. Like pancreatic cancer, sarcomas and non-clear cell renal cell carcinoma are typically highly resistant to immunotherapies. When looking at how abilities data have matured over time, we have also notably seen evidence suggesting durable anti-cancer activity with MDNA11 monotherapy administered via IV infusion once every two weeks. This has come from the aforementioned pancreatic cancer patient as we see continued deepening of tumor reduction over each of the last three scans leading up to the confirmed partial response. Additional evidence of durability comes from the metastatic melanoma patient achieving tumor control as this individual has been on study for more than a year while maintaining stable disease having initially started treatment at the low dose. Collectively, these anti-tumor activity data from Ability's early and mid-stage cohorts, a full overview of which can be found in a swimmer spot online in our corporate deck, provide a robust demonstration of MDNA11's single-agent potential in advanced solid tumors unresponsive to established treatments, including 79% of the patients who had prior failed checkpoint inhibitor therapies. Adding to our enthusiasm, For these results are the trial's pharmacodynamic data, which further confirm a mechanistic rationale for MDNA11's differentiated and potent antitumor activity while underscoring its best-in-class potential. These results show MDNA11 driving multifold increases in anti-cancer immune cells that are greater than those achieved with competing agents administered at equivalent rates. IL-2 doses. Moreover, MDNA-11 has not been shown to stimulate pro-tumor immune cells or eosinophils, which are linked to one of the most serious side effects of the only approved IL-2 therapy, prolucan. These favorable pharmacodynamic results are a result of MDNA-11's unique design, This design provides MDNA11 with enhanced affinity for IL-2 receptor beta, which is important for anti-cancer immunity, and no affinity for IL-2 receptor alpha, the stimulation of which is associated with pro-tumor immune suppression and toxicity. Together with the inclusion of an albumin protein, that provides half-life extension and improves localization in the tumor, the tumor-draining lymph nodes, and the lymphatic system where cancer-fighting immune cells are resident and primed for recruitment to attack the tumor. This unique binding profile, together with its highly differentiated mechanism, fuels our belief that MDNA11 has the potential to become a best-in-class therapy that overcomes the major shortcomings of Prolucan and other competing programs. This hypothesis is already being borne out by the maturing ability data I just discussed. Looking forward for the ability study, we expect to present additional PKPD data as well as detailed safety data from the first four dose escalation cohorts at the upcoming TITC meeting next week. With regards to subsequent readouts on anti-tumor activity data, we remain optimistic that the results of future cohorts will provide additional evidence of monotherapy efficacy as we continue to dose escalate. This optimism is fueled by the encouraging disease control rate, despite the end-stage nature of these advanced tumor types. The safety profile to date is encouraging with no dose-limiting toxicities, dose interruptions, dose de-escalations, nor treatment discontinuations due to safety issues observed to date. Enrollment in the trial's fifth dose escalation cohort is currently underway. We expect to report initial anti-tumor activity data from this cohort alongside a broader update from all of the trial's dose escalation cohorts in the first quarter of 2023. Based on what we see from this fifth dose cohort, along with a broader update, we will be in a position to make the strategic decision whether or not to advance to the sixth dose cohort. Given the positive safety profile we have seen so far and our confidence in the differentiated aspects of MDNA 11, we are committed to find the optimal dose beyond cohort five if needed. Upon the determination of a recommended Phase II dose during dose escalation, we expect to advance to the trial's single-agent dose expansion phase, where early activity data are expected in mid-2023. In parallel, we plan to work to initiate the trial's combination app, which is designed to evaluate MDNA11 together with the PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor Keytruda. This portion of the study is enabled by our clinical collaboration with Merck, which we are pleased to begin last quarter. We and Merck will establish a joint development committee to optimally advance Abilities Combination Arm from which early antitumor data are expected in late 2023. Though the expected timing of these upcoming readouts on antitumor activity represent a brief delay, compared to prior guidance, we believe that taking the extra time necessary to recruit and optimize patient population in the current and future cohorts will allow us to potentially increase the impact of the data from those cohorts from a scientific and value creation perspective. Lastly, before handing the call over to Liz, I will remind all listening enrollment in abilities single agent expansion and combination arms will focus on a select number of tumor types to best inform our development strategy by generating additional evidence of MDNA 11 anti-tumor activity in key indications we believe we can accelerate its development and bring the company to a key value inflection point and with that I I will complete this section of today's call and hand it off to Liz. Liz?

Thanks, Fahar, and thanks to all listening. Before I begin, I'll note that all references are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. As of September 30, 2022, Medicina had cash equivalents and marketable securities of $40 million. This includes the net proceeds from our August financing, which added several new healthcare-focused institutional investors to our shareholder base. Based on our projections, our current cash resources are sufficient to fund our operations into Q2 calendar 2024. This takes us through multiple important clinical readouts and the completion of the ability study, including both its monotherapy and combination arms. Net loss for the quarter ended September 30th, 2022 was 0.9 million, or one cent per share, compared to a net loss of 8.2 million or 15 cents per share for the quarter ended September 30th, 2021. The significant decrease in net loss for the quarter ended September 30th, 2022 compared with the quarter ended September 30th, 2021 was primarily a result of a foreign exchange gain of $1.9 million on our US dollar cash balances due to the strength of the US dollar during the current quarter a non-cash gain of $1.8 million related to the change in valuation of a non-cash warrant liability associated with the August 2022 financing, as well as a reduction in R&D expenses in the current year period. Research and development expenses of $2.4 million were incurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared with $6.3 million incurred in the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in research and development expenses in the current fiscal year's quarter is primarily attributed to costs associated with the development of MD&A11 incurred in the prior year, including GMP manufacturing and IND enabling studies, for which no comparable expenses were incurred in the current year. The reduction in MD&A11 development expenses was partially offset by higher clinical costs in the current year period. General administrative expenses of $2.4 million were incurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared with $2 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2021. The increase in general administrative expenses is primarily attributed to one-time transaction costs of $0.7 million related to the warrant liability derivative associated with the August 2022 financing, for which there was no comparable expense in the prior year period. For further details on our financials, please refer to our financial statements and management discussion and analysis, which will be available on both CDAR and EDGAR, respectively. With that, I'll now turn the call over to Fahar for some closing remarks.

Thanks, Liz. In closing, I'd like to stress the significance of our recent accomplishments and reiterate my enthusiasm for the future of our MDNA 11 program. With our recent financing as well as the clinical trial collaboration and supply agreement with Merck, we have added strength to our shareholder base and the resources needed to ensure the Ability Study is fully funded through multiple important milestones and to its completion. We also generated additional data from Ability's dose escalation cohorts which added to a robust body of evidence supporting MDNA 11's potential as a best-in-class therapy. These data show MDNA 11 displaying a pharmacokinetic and safety profile that overcomes Prolucan's major shortcomings and a pharmacodynamic profile that thus far appears superior to other IL-2 variants in development. Moreover, Despite Ability's dose escalation phase being designed primarily to evaluate safety and pharmacokinetics rather than efficacy, we have seen promising signs of durable monotherapy activity at the low and mid dose levels. These signs include a confirmed partial response in pancreatic cancer and additional instances of tumor control in patients with difficult to treat tumors that have been unresponsive to established therapies. We are therefore optimistic that we will see further evidence of MDNA11's efficacy as we evaluate higher doses and focus enrollment on patients that better reflect its target addressable population in future cohorts. The trial's progress is expected to provide a consistent cadence of potential catalysts over the coming quarters and we look forward to its continued advancement. And with that, I would like to extend my thanks to all those who helped us reach this point, including our employees, investigators, shareholders, and especially the clinical trial participants. We'll now open the lines for questions.

Operator?

And at this time, we will be conducting a question and answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your question from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys.

And one moment, please, while we poll for questions. And our first question comes from the line of David Martin with Bloomberg.

Please proceed with your question.

Good morning, Fahar and Liz. First question, I'm wondering how many patients in cohort five have escalated to the 90 dose, and if DLTs or SAEs occur, do you know about them generally immediately?

Hi, David. Thank you for your question. Yes, we are made aware of DLTs, SAEs, as soon as the site has determined it to be the case and they would notify us pretty much immediately and we would be made aware of it right there and then. So yes, that's the protocol. With respect to how many patients, we haven't disclosed that in terms of the data on cohort five and therefore we'll sort of provide updates as we collect more data and once we have completed enrollment of that particular cohort and completed the step, up-dosing all to the target dose of 90 micrograms in all the patients.

Okay. Second question, you mentioned the brief delay in milestones. I didn't really see a delay versus what I was expecting, but nonetheless, How will, you mentioned that's because you want to optimize the patients going forward. So I'm wondering how will the patients in cohort five and in the expansion and in the combo studies differ from the earlier patients you've enrolled in the study? What does optimizing mean? Just limiting the tumor types?

Good question. So if you recall, when we were enrolling patients in the earlier cohorts, we had not set what we call the baseline lymphocyte count of these patients. So yes, all the patients in the study are those that have failed standard of care. They have essentially tried other therapies and have not been eligible to enter into other, say, phase two, phase three clinical trials. So yeah, these are end-stage patients. However, what we've done is with respect to going forward with cohort five and so on is to make sure that the baseline lymphocyte count is above 1,000. So that certainly means that the inclusion criteria has been made a little bit more stricter and therefore the pool of patients available is fewer, and therefore that's adding more time to the process, although not significantly, but a small increase in time for us to get those patients to be in the study. Now with respect to how these patients would compare to the dose expansion phase of the study, again in the dose expansion phase of the study we would expect patients that have not gone through three, four lines of prior therapy. There would certainly be patients who would be eligible for studies where the recommended phase two dose has been established in sort of typically phase two settings, particularly in terms of our design of where the patients might benefit the most. So yes, the patient population in the dose expansion phase will certainly be less advanced they certainly will have the sort of the baseline lymphocyte counting above a thousand but in the this current dose escalation portion there still are end-stage patients but at least they have sort of a better baseline lymphocyte count than the patients enrolled in the earlier dose cohorts okay great

Yep. Last question. You mentioned you're getting responses in stable disease in patients with tumors that you wouldn't expect to respond to immunotherapy. What about patients where you would expect them to respond to immunotherapy? How's the drug doing in those patients? And are you gleaning what defines a patient who will respond or is more likely to respond to Are you seeing, for instance, that if they have over 1,000 lymphocytes at baseline, that those are the ones that are responding, or are there other characteristics?

Yeah, it's sort of difficult, especially in the phase one portion of the study, where clearly we are trying to accumulate as much data as we possibly can. Now, if you sort of go back to data from earlier studies of proleukin, and other competing clinical trials with competing IL-2 programs, we've generally found that the baseline lymphocyte counts in those patients have generally been between 1,000 and 2,000 lymphocytes per microliter. So basically by us using 1,000 microliter is sort of 1,000 counts per microliter. Instead of aligning ourselves to what we've seen with Prolucan, for instance, Now, with respect to patients, it's sort of difficult because each of them, as you know, this is a basket portion of the study where we are dose escalating. We've allowed patients with as many as eight different tumor types. And it's difficult to sort of generate any kind of trend lines. But I think the important thing here is that we certainly have seen a patient, as you know, with pancreatic cancer. We know that pancreatic cancer does not respond well to immunotherapies. We also know that there has been no report of single-agent activity of Prolucan on pancreatic cancer patients. So this is an encouraging sign. What might be the reason, we cannot say for certain, but we just know that MDNA11, because of its selectivity of its high potency its ability to stimulate both the innate and the adaptive immune systems has that potential additional ability to perhaps have a much better response in patients that have cold tumors now mind you when we have patients that have been in the study, as I mentioned, the pancreatic cancer patient, we also see a similar situation with a stable disease, as we mentioned, in a patient with renal cell carcinoma. Now, normally you would expect patients with renal cell carcinoma to respond to proleukin as it has been approved for that patient population. But generally, if you look at renal cell carcinoma, the patients that will respond are the patients with what we call clear cell renal cell carcinoma. In our case, this is a patient that has stable disease with non-clear cell RCC, and that is a much more challenging situation with Prolucan as well. So again, we're seeing that sort of activity in this kind of patient population, which is again encouraging. However, as you know, patients in the study have gone through multiple treatments and It's not only the tumor type that matters. I would say that also perhaps the fact that these patients had low lymphocyte counts might be an issue. The other thing is that some of these patients might have gone through more therapies and failed multiple lines and their baseline condition might not be as good, especially if they've gone through additional chemo and radiation therapy with fewer immune cells. So we are certainly getting to this, you know, the intent is we'll be able to see the effect more clearly as we enter into the sort of the RP2 dose range.

Okay. Okay, thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Matthew Beisler with Oppenheimer.

Please proceed with your question.

Hey, great. Good morning, guys. This is Matt Hagan on for Matt. I was wondering if you could just expand a little bit on the dose escalation strategy, kind of just sort of what criteria you're looking for to know you've reached that optimal dose versus dosing higher. And I guess, you know, do you think you'll need to dose all the way to DLTs to find that optimal dose? Thanks.

Right. Thanks, Matt. Good question. So certainly we'll be monitoring DLTs. As you are aware, the SIRTA protocol is very specific that we would certainly not be able to dose beyond the DLT. So the first and foremost thing in terms of defining or reaching a certain dose is once we see signs of DLTs, then of course that's when we would stop further escalations and revisit a lower dose. So that might be, that's one aspect. Now, in the event we don't see DLTs as we have dose escalating, the other thing that we will be looking at is when we achieve a plateau of immune cell proliferation and activation. So that's sort of the other set of information that we're really monitoring in order for us to determine the RP2 dose. So those are the two parameters that we'll be sort of optimizing, and based on that, we'll be able to decide on proceeding with the RP2 dose. Hope that answers your question.

Yep, great. Thanks, guys. And our next question comes from the line of Catherine Novak with Jones Research. So you proceed with your question.

Hi, morning. I'm just curious, you know, since you have so far been seeing good safety results, with this priming dose, is there a possibility to change the step-up dosing strategy to possibly expedite getting patients up to a more efficacious dose?

Good question. And that is something that certainly as part of the dose escalation strategy would be perhaps two things. We could, you know, increase the target dose, there's opportunities to expedite also the duration or reduce the duration during the priming phases or the step-up dosing. So those options are open and therefore something that would be visited if we find that that has potential benefit to the patient.

So we are open. Yeah.

Yeah. And Is there an update on the pancreatic cancer patient? Are they still on study? Do you plan to dose escalate them if they're still on study at the time when you're reaching higher doses?

Yes. So the protocol does allow that as long as patients are in the study and we have cleared sort of the next higher dose, those patients will be eligible for the higher dose. So in that case, patients the pancreatic cancer patient received the 60 microgram dose as the target dose. Once the 90 microgram dose clears, that patient would be then eligible for receiving the higher 90 microgram dose.

And yes, the patient continues on study as is the melanoma patient and the renal cell carcinoma patient.

Got it. And just one more, if you can give any color on you know, patient characteristics that have been enrolled in cohort five in terms of, you know, tumor types that previously would have been thought to respond to IL-2?

Well, the thing is that we haven't, as we did proceed with the dose escalation portion of the study, that did not have any sort of constraints in types of tumor types. We had a list of about 12 to 15 different tumor types that are eligible. So the same patient population is eligible even in cohort five. The only thing that we have implemented going forward is to make sure that the baseline lymphocyte count was above a thousand. Having seen particularly in the cold tumor in pancreatic cancer patients, which was certainly unexpected, to see a response encourages us not to, at the moment, limit the tumor types. We'd rather continue with the tumor types just in case patients with other tumor types that we haven't tested might even show stable disease response, et cetera. So we are not constraining there, but just that we have increased the threshold. Or let's put it this way. We've set a threshold.

for 1,000 lymphocyte counts per microliter. So that's the only big change we've made.

Got it. That's very helpful. Thank you so much.

Thank you, Catherine. And our next question comes from the line of David Bolt with Zaxx.

Please proceed with your question.

Hey, good morning, Fahar, and good morning, Liz. So, Farhar, I'm curious what the status is on any type of paired biopsy samples that you have for the patients, and is that something that you can try to maybe emphasize more going forward here in the trial?

Well, we haven't received too many of them yet. I think we have, if I'm not mistaken. about just two or three paired biopsies so far. We hope to get some additional as we enroll patients and get patients in cohort five to do the same. More likely that we'll get more of the paired biopsy patients in the dose expansion phase, but we plan to analyze whatever data we get from the paired biopsies to date. Hopefully we'll have that done after the dose escalation is completed. and certainly continue the same process. Hopefully, we'll learn a bit more from the paired biopsies before we get started with the dose expansion.

Okay. And regarding the recent financing, so it sounds like the ability trial is fully funded. I'm just curious, one, if that takes into account a potential sixth or higher dosing cohort. And then also, how much will that fund the BISCIT program, your current cash on hand?

Yes, so we do have room to add additional cohorts if necessary in the dose escalation portion. As you might have noticed, we have also increased the number of patients in the dose expansion to 40 each in the monotherapy and the combination part of the study. So that's sort of being covered as well. And with respect to the BISCIT program, this financing is adequate for us not to commence a clinical trial with the BISCIT program, but sufficient enough to advance it further to the stage where we are able to commence some IND enabling studies. Liz, perhaps you might be able to provide a bit more clarity there. Liz?

Yeah, sure. Thanks, Fahar. Yeah, so our current focus is obviously on the MDNA11 ability study. So our current runway projections cover 100% of the cost for both the monotherapy and combination arm, as well as work on the BISCIP platform to get a molecule to IND readiness. And that takes us into Q2 2024. And we have the ability to kind of allocate proceeds between the programs as needed to ensure that the runway stays intact or lengthens.

All right. Sounds good. Appreciate you taking the questions. And our next question comes from the line of David Martin with Bloomberg.

Please proceed with your question.

Thanks for taking my follow-up. I wanted to go back to the selecting patients with baseline lymphocytes of 1,000 per microliter or above. You mentioned with proleukin, you'd see that trend. If they were above, they were more likely to respond. If below, less likely. What about in your dose escalation so far? Are you seeing the patient that responded and the patients with stable disease as being the ones who have this 1,000 or higher? baseline?

Yeah, so patients, the thing is that with proleukin, what we see is published literature. They haven't actually shown us that the baseline lymphocyte, or they haven't provided data on patients with baseline lymphocyte counts less than 1,000. Generally, we'll see that those data show that the baseline lymphocyte counts is approximately anywhere between 1,000 to 2,000, more close to 2,000 than 1,000. It's around 1,500 or so in those proleukin studies that have been published. And there has been no sort of correlation per se. However, when we look at the sort of the peak lymphocyte count, we've seen data from certain studies where proleukin has shown that when the peak lymphocyte count increases above 3,000, there is a higher probability of patients responding or having stable disease versus those patients that do not get to the 3,000 threshold. Now, when we look back at our first three or four cohorts of the patients that we have treated, especially the first three cohorts, We find that the baseline lymphocyte counts were sub 1000 on average, and we rarely saw the lymphocyte counts go above 3000 in those situations because of the baseline being so low. In some cases it was as low as just 300 counts per microliter. So as we've gone into cohort four and enrolling patients in cohort five, at least in cohort four, our baseline lymphocyte counts, as you will see in what we've presented at the previous, you know, our corporate deck, you will see that the baseline lymphocyte count on average is above 1,000. And that's why we are seeing, again, on that corporate deck, the lymphocyte counts being above 3,000. And it's too early to say. It's been very few patients with that kind of baseline lymphocyte counts. So we are hoping that as we proceed into cohort five and six, especially in dose expansion where we have less sick patients, that will sort of translate into better responses and exceeding the 3,000 threshold that Proloquine was able to achieve.

So setting that as the bar for inclusion in the trial, does that de facto define the patients as less heavily pretreated?

Well, let's put it this way. It does define patients who are likely have a better immune system or they have received less, let's put it this way, less chemotherapy or radiation therapy that might have substantially impacted their lymphocyte counts. Or patients might have received chemo or radiation therapy, but not recently. Those patients that would have just recently gone through chemo radiation, et cetera, would more likely have lymphocyte counts that are quite low.

Okay. Got it. That's it for me. Thanks.

Okay. Thanks.

And we have reached the end of the question and answer session. I'll now turn the call back over to Dr. Fahar Merchant for closed remarks.

Thank you very much. I'd like to thank you all for joining the call today. And it's been a pleasure for us to update all of you listening, any participation. Our recent progress has certainly strengthened the outlook of our pipeline, particularly our MDNA 11 program. We look forward to providing periodic updates as our programs continue to progress.

Thank you all and have a great day.

And this concludes today's conference, and you may disconnect your lines at this time. Thank you for your participation.
