1. Organization Heat Biologics, Inc. (?Heat? or ?the Company?) is a biopharmaceutical company developing immunotherapies with the goal of activating a patient?s immune system against cancer through T-cell activation. Our T-cell Activation Platform (TCAP), includes two variations for intradermal administration, Immune Pan-antigen Cytotoxic Therapy ( ImPACT  ) and Combination Pan-antigen Cytotoxic Therapy ( ComPACT ? ). To further augment antigen experienced T-cell activation and expansion we are also developing a novel T-cell co-stimulator PTX-35 for systemic administration. These programs are designed to harness the body's natural antigen specific immune activation and tolerance mechanisms to reprogram immunity and provide a long-term, durable clinical effect. Currently we are enrolling patients in our HS-110 combination immunotherapy trial, preparing IND submissions for our HS-130 and PTX-35 programs, and providing pre-clinical, CMC development, and administrative support for these operations; while constantly focusing on protecting and expanding our intellectual property in areas of strategic interest. We continue to enroll patients in our Phase 2 clinical trial for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), in combination with either Bristol-Myers Squibb?s nivolumab (Opdivo  ) or more recently, Merck &amp;Co., Inc?s (Merck?s) anti-PD1 checkpoint inhibitor, pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA  ). Our other programs are in pre-clinical and CMC development with two IND filings anticipated during 2019. Our T-cell Activation Platform (TCAP), includes two variations, ImPACT  and ComPACT ? which are designed to activate and expand tumor antigen specific ?killer? T-cells to destroy a patient?s cancer. By turning immunologically ?COLD tumors HOT,? we believe our platform will become an essential component of the immuno-oncology cocktail to enhance the effectiveness of checkpoint inhibitors and other cancer therapies, thereby improving outcomes for those patients least likely to respond to checkpoint inhibitors alone. We believe the advantage of our approach is that our biologic agents deliver a broad range of tumor antigens that are unrecognized by the patient?s immune system prior to the malignant rise of the patient?s tumor. TCAP combines these tumor associated antigens with a powerful, naturally occurring immune adjuvant, gp96, to actively chaperone these antigens out of our non-replicating allogenic cell-based therapy into the local microenvironment of the skin. The treatment primes immune recognition to activate T-cells to seek and destroy the cancer cells throughout the body. These TCAP agents can be administered with a variety of immuno-modulators to enhance a patient?s immune response through ligand specific T-cell activation. Unlike many other ?patient specific? or autologous immunotherapy approaches, our drugs are fully-allogenic, ?off-the-shelf,? products which means that we can administer immediately without the extraction of blood or tumor tissue from each patient or the creation of an individualized treatment based on these patient materials. Our TCAP product candidates from our ImPACT  and ComPACT ? platforms are produced from allogeneic cell lines expressing tumor-specific proteins common among cancers. Because each patient receives the same treatment, we believe that our immunotherapy approach offers superior speed to initiation, logistical, manufacturing and importantly, other cost benefits, compared to ?personalized? precision medicine approaches. In October 2018, Heat entered into an agreement with the University of Miami (?UM?) whereby UM exchanged its shares of stock in Heat?s subsidiaries, Heat I, Inc. and Pelican Therapeutics, Inc. (?Pelican?), a related party prior to acquisition. The stock exchange resulted in Heat owning 100% of Heat I, Inc. and increasing its controlling ownership in Pelican from 80% to 85%. On May 30, 2012, Heat formed two-wholly owned subsidiaries, Heat Biologics III, Inc. (?Heat III?) and Heat Biologics, IV, Inc. (?Heat IV?). Heat formed Heat Biologics GmbH (Heat GmbH), a wholly-owned limited liability company, organized in Germany on September 11, 2012. Heat also formed Heat Biologics Australia Pty LTD, a wholly-owned proprietary company, registered in Australia on March 14, 2014. On October 25, 2016, Heat formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Zolovax, Inc., to focus on the development of gp96-based vaccines targeting Zika, HIV, West Nile, and dengue and yellow fever. In November 2018 Heat formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Delphi Therapeutics, Inc. and Scorpion Biosciences, Inc. Operations of Pelican are included in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss from the acquisition date. Heat?s product candidates require clinical trials and approvals from regulatory agencies, as well as acceptance in the marketplace. Part of Heat?s strategy is to develop and commercialize some of its product candidates by continuing existing arrangements with academic and corporate collaborators and licensees and by entering into new collaborations.
