Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) has reported strong validation of its AI-Immunology™ platform in multiple clinical trials. The company, specializing in AI-powered vaccine development, has gathered evidence from three separate clinical trials demonstrating the platform's ability to select clinically relevant vaccine targets.

Key findings include:

• Statistically significant correlation between AI-Immunology™ prediction scores and immunological responses in patients
• Strongest outcomes generated by top-ranked AI-Immunology™ vaccine targets
• In one trial, a statistically significant correlation between AI-Immunology™ prediction scores and Progression Free Survival (PFS)

The data supports the platform's potential in selecting effective vaccine targets and allows for continuous refinement of AI-Immunology™, broadening its commercial potential. Evaxion's CEO, Christian Kanstrup, emphasized the importance of generating relevant clinical data for the ongoing development of the platform.

Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) has reported significant improvements in its AI-Immunology™ platform's predictive power for clinically relevant vaccine targets. In the ongoing phase 2 trial of their personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01, 79% of the AI-predicted vaccine targets triggered a tumor-specific immune response, up from 58% in the phase 1 trial.

This improvement is attributed to iterative learning and integration of advanced bioinformatics and machine learning techniques. The company believes this enhanced precision boosts the potential of its AI-derived vaccine candidates and is important for clinical efficacy and commercial potential.

CEO Christian Kanstrup emphasized the importance of this progress, stating that the 79% response rate compares favorably to other personalized cancer neoantigen trials. He also noted that the strong clinical outcome data provides Evaxion with a compelling AI-Immunology™ derived investigational vaccine candidate.

Evaxion Biotech A/S has expanded its collaboration with MSD through an option and license agreement for two preclinical vaccine candidates, EVX-B2 and EVX-B3. The deal includes:

• An upfront payment of $3.2 million
• Up to $10 million in 2025 if MSD exercises its option
• Potential milestone payments of up to $592 million per product
• Royalties on net sales

EVX-B2 targets Gonorrhea, while EVX-B3 targets an undisclosed infectious agent. This agreement validates Evaxion's AI-Immunology™ platform and aligns with their strategy of leveraging external collaborations. Evaxion will host a conference call on September 27, 2024, to discuss the agreement and recent company milestones.

Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) has launched an enhanced version of its AI-Immunology™ platform, featuring an updated EDEN™ AI prediction model. The new version 5.0 includes:

• A novel toxin antigen predictor
• An expanded training dataset
• Advanced protein feature prediction

These improvements are expected to accelerate vaccine development and strengthen Evaxion's position in AI-driven immunology. The platform can now deliver a new target within 24 hours, compared to years using traditional methods. The enhanced EDEN™ model's performance will be presented at the European Conference on Computational Biology in Turku, Finland.

Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) reports promising one-year data from its phase 2 trial of EVX-01, an AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine for advanced melanoma. Key findings include:

- 69% Overall Response Rate (11 out of 16 patients)
- Tumor reduction in 15 out of 16 patients
- 79% of vaccine targets triggered immune responses
- Positive correlation between AI-Immunology™ platform predictions and immune responses (p=0.00013)

The trial combines EVX-01 with MSD's KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab). These results validate Evaxion's AI-Immunology™ platform and position the company as a leader in AI immunology. With the global melanoma treatment market projected to reach $7.4 billion by 2029, EVX-01 shows significant commercial potential.

Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) has reported promising results from its phase 2 trial of EVX-01, its lead cancer vaccine candidate. The interim analysis shows a 69% Overall Response Rate, with 11 out of 16 patients experiencing objective clinical responses. Notably, 15 out of 16 patients showed tumor reduction. The trial combines EVX-01 with MSD's anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA®, in advanced melanoma patients.

The complete one-year dataset will be presented at the ESMO Congress 2024 in Barcelona. Evaxion's CEO, Christian Kanstrup, expressed excitement about the data, emphasizing its support for EVX-01's clinical profile and the AI-Immunology™ platform's predictive capabilities. The company will host a webinar on September 18, 2024, featuring Professor Georgina V. Long to discuss the trial results and challenges in advanced melanoma treatment.

Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) has announced promising pre-clinical proof-of-concept data for its EVX-B2 mRNA Gonorrhea vaccine candidate. The data shows that the vaccine triggers a targeted immune response leading to the elimination of gonorrhea bacteria. This validates Evaxion's AI-Immunology™ platform as delivery modality agnostic, applicable across different vaccine modalities.

The results, presented at the 18th Vaccine Congress in Lisbon, demonstrate the potential of AI-Immunology™ in developing treatments for bacterial diseases. EVX-B2 was initially designed as a protein-based vaccine, and this new data for the mRNA version further substantiates the platform's versatility. The research was conducted in collaboration with Afrigen Biologics.

CEO Christian Kanstrup highlighted this milestone as part of Evaxion's 2024 strategy execution, emphasizing the platform's value proposition for partners. With no existing Gonorrhea vaccine, EVX-B2 represents a potentially groundbreaking treatment opportunity.

Evaxion Biotech A/S (NASDAQ: EVAX) has released its Q2 2024 financial results and business update. Key highlights include:

- Ongoing partnership discussions as part of multi-partner approach
- Positive Phase 2 immune data for EVX-01 presented at ASCO
- On track for Phase 2 one-year clinical data readout at ESMO Congress 2024
- Improved performance of AI-Immunology™ platform
- Cash position of $8.0 million as of June 30, 2024
- Net loss of $6.2 million for Q2 2024

The company expects its cash to fund operations into February 2025 but requires additional income or funding to continue as a going concern. Evaxion is working to regain Nasdaq compliance by November 4, 2024.
