The conference features industry leaders and is supported by the National Cancer Institute.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. has successfully completed a sterile test-run production of its BVX-0918 ovarian cancer vaccine, validating the production protocols developed over recent months. This involved extracting tumor cells from a cancer patient and significantly reducing production time by 50%. The company now aims to optimize the vaccine production process and prepare for regulatory submission in the EU. BioVaxys is advancing its clinical studies with Procare Health Iberia for a Phase I trial, marking a significant milestone in their cancer vaccine development.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. has signed a binding agreement with Procare Health for the exclusive marketing and distribution of their HPV treatment product, Papilocare, and the immune-support supplement Immunocaps in the US. This agreement grants BioVaxys a right of first refusal for Procare's other products, Ovosicare and Libicare. BioVaxys anticipates rapid revenue generation from Immunocaps, which does not require FDA approval. The partnership also involves milestone payments and royalties. Regulatory approval for Papilocare as a Class II medical device is expected.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. announced the expansion of its intellectual property portfolio by filing an international patent application via the Patent Cooperation Treaty for BVX-1021, a vaccine targeting SARS-CoV-1 and other sarbecoviruses. Additionally, the company has filed multiple National Phase patent applications for BVX-0320, a SARS-CoV-2 S1 subunit vaccine, across key pharmaceutical markets including the US and EU. This strategic move aims to enhance patent protection and bolster its position in the biotechnology sector.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. has successfully closed the first tranche of its non-brokered private placement, securing gross proceeds of $200,000 from the issuance of 2,000,000 units at $0.10 each. Each unit includes one common share and one warrant, exercisable at $0.20 for 48 months. This private placement aims to raise up to $1,000,000 with the second tranche expected to close soon. Funds will be utilized for working capital, and all securities issued will be subject to a statutory hold period.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. announced a significant milestone in the development of its ovarian cancer vaccine, BVX-0918. The first tumors were surgically excised from patients and sent to BioVaxys for manufacturing process validation. Collaborations with Hospices Civils de Lyon and Deaconess Research Institute facilitate tumor sourcing for production. The vaccine relies on a process of haptenization to enhance immune recognition of cancer cells. Previous clinical trials using a first-generation vaccine demonstrated promising overall survival rates. BioVaxys aims to complete Good Manufacturing Process (GMP) production soon.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. has announced that its partner, BioElpida, has successfully created multiple OVCAR-3 cell banks, essential for the GMP manufacturing of BVX-0918, a vaccine aimed at treating platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. This step is crucial for regulatory compliance in both the EU and the US, with a Phase I study planned for later this year. The company is also collaborating with medical institutions to validate tumor collection protocols for bioproduction. The innovative vaccine platform utilizes haptenization to enhance immune response against cancer cells.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. announced progress in developing a pan-sarbecovirus vaccine in collaboration with The Ohio State University. The study focuses on BVX-1021, a booster vaccine aimed at inducing immune responses to various sarbecoviruses, including SARS-CoV-2 variants. They are preparing new recombinant SARS-1 protein to enhance study reproducibility. Results from neutralizing antibody studies are expected by late August 2022. This initiative aligns with WHO's call for enhanced vaccines against evolving strains, reflecting a critical need for effective pan-sarbecovirus solutions.

BioVaxys Technology Corp. has filed an international patent application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) to extend its cancer vaccine platform’s protection for cervical cancer. The Vancouver-based company has partnered with Procare Health to co-develop an autologous bihaptenized cervical cancer vaccine for the EU market and to conduct an upcoming Phase I clinical study of BVX-0918 for ovarian cancer. Additionally, BioVaxys is exploring its vaccine platform for colorectal cancer.
