Kan bl.a. være disse uttalelsene på Q2 i august i fjor du sikter til :
You know that we keep in regular contact with potential partners. This is what companies do. We – every time we have new data, we keep them updated. But after we have stated these contacts and of course, assuming it’s positive, these contracts accelerate. And the normal process is that then you share the data under and the CDI of confidential disclosure agreements disclose this data, enter into initial negotiations, normally a non-bind terming sheet, and then depending how many companies are in the process. And I can tell you from experience in multiple negotiations that was involved at – this process from the point in time where we share the data to signing of – potential signing up an agreement can go from 6 to 12 months. So this is not going to happen from one to the other, but the important part is that everything that we can do to facilitate these discussions and also discuss with them what will be the plans for the future will help and facilitate these interactions with potential partners.
And for us, we are talking with dozens of companies. Of course, there are the companies that have the checkpoint inhibitors. These are the usual suspects. But for Ultimovacs, as you – the UV1 concept is that we can be used across the border in multiple cancer types in combination with the different checkpoint inhibitors. So we are really agnostic to which checkpoint inhibitor UV1 is combined, being the ones that are now in the market or the new ones being in development. So for us, really, this expands the potential and the number of potential partners even if they don’t have checkpoint inhibitors because then the UV1 can be used across the border. We are also, of course, continue to look at ways of expanding the use of UV1. In our end, we see the progress of the field moving into treating patients at the earlier stage. And this is, of course, part of the discussions that will also be with these companies that are moving the development of checkpoint inhibitors to the adjuvant or the new adjuvant setting. So a lot of very exciting potential, again, assuming that the data is positive.
