Organization and Operations | Organization and Operations Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company” or “INOVIO”) is a biotechnology company focused on developing and commercializing DNA medicines to help treat and protect people from diseases associated with HPV, cancer, and infectious diseases. The Company’s goal is to advance its diverse pipeline of product candidates and deliver on the promise of DNA medicines technology in treating and preventing a wide array of diseases. In clinical trials, INOVIO's DNA medicine candidates have shown the ability to generate immune responses, especially CD4+, CD8+, and memory T-cell responses against targeted pathogens and cancers, via its precisely designed plasmids. These plasmids are delivered into cells using the Company's investigational proprietary smart device, CELLECTRA. INOVIO's lead candidates are focused on diseases associated with HPV. In October 2022 and February 2023, INOVIO announced data from the first and second cohorts, respectively, of its Phase 1/2 clinical trial with INO-3107 for the treatment of HPV-6 and HPV-11 associated Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis (RRP). In this trial, treatment with INO-3107 resulted in a statistically significant reduction of the median number of surgeries, a result that reinforces the Company's belief that DNA medicines may play a key role in the treatment of HPV-related diseases. The Company's partners and collaborators include Advaccine Biopharmaceuticals Suzhou Co, ApolloBio Corporation, AstraZeneca, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (Gates), Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), HIV Vaccines Trial Network, Indiana University, International Vaccine Institute (IVI), Kaneka Eurogentec, National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Plumbline Life Sciences, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Richter-Helm BioLogics, Thermo Fisher Scientific, the University of Pennsylvania, the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, and The Wistar Institute. The Company and its collaborators are currently evaluating the feasibility of, or conducting or planning clinical studies of, DNA medicines for the Ebola virus; HPV-related precancers, including cervical, vulvar and anal dysplasia; HPV-related cancers, including head & neck; other HPV-related disorders, such as RRP; and glioblastoma (GBM). INOVIO was incorporated in Delaware in June 2001 and has its principal executive offices in Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania.
