Business development
PCI Biotech’s strategy is to create value by effectively progressing development of the three distinct
business areas towards commercialisation. The commercialisation of products is intended primarily
through agreements with external partners. PCI Biotech believes that the PCI technology has the
potential to play a role in the realisation of several new therapeutic modalities, including cancer
immunotherapy and mRNA therapeutics, and the signed fimaNAC research collaborations indicates
that external companies share this view. PCI Biotech will continue the business development activities,
to build on the proven ability to initiate new research collaborations and explore the business
opportunities present in the active collaborations.
The Company’s lead programme, fimaCHEM for bile duct cancer, has initiated the pivotal clinical
RELEASE trial with the potential of accelerated / conditional marketing approval as a first-line
treatment given the rare disease status and unmet medical need in this condition.
An important value-creating step for the fimaVACC programme was the successful clinical translation
of the promising preclinical data, through a Phase I study in healthy volunteers. The successful clinical
validation provides substantial risk reduction for the fimaVACC asset, as well as significant value
enhancement and opening up for new partnering opportunities enabling PCI Biotech to enter into the
immunotherapy field. PCI Biotech pursues two development strategies in parallel for fimaVACC,
utilising the Phase I results both in direct partnering efforts and planning for clinical Proof-of-Concept
in a disease setting.
The fimaNAC programme will continue to follow a collaborative approach, pursuing out-licensing
opportunities based on established preclinical data and entering into early collaborations with the aim
to transform the collaborations into commercial agreements.
