About PCI Biotech
PCI Biotech is a biopharmaceutical company focusing on development and
commercialisation of novel therapies for the treatment of cancer through its
innovative photochemical internalisation (PCI) technology platform. PCI is
applied to three distinct anticancer paradigms: fimaChem (enhancement of
chemotherapeutics for localised treatment of cancer), fimaVacc (T-cell induction
technology for therapeutic vaccination), and fimaNAc (nucleic acid therapeutics
delivery).
Photochemical internalisation induces triggered endosomal release that is used
to unlock the true potential of a wide array of therapeutic modalities. The
company's lead fimaChem programme consists of a clinical Phase I/II clinical
study in bile duct cancer, an orphan indication with a high unmet need and
without approved products. fimaVacc applies a unique mode of action to enhance
the essential cytotoxic effect of therapeutic cancer vaccines, which works in
synergy with several other state-of-the-art vaccination technologies. fimaNAc
utilises the endosomal release to provide intracellular delivery of nucleic
acids, such as mRNA and siRNA therapeutics, thereby addressing one of the major
bottlenecks facing this emerging and promising field.

5-12 of the Norwegian Securities Trading Act.
