Rights Issue to Drive Development of The Company’s Leading Drug Candidate, And to Form SPV

Oncology Venture holds the capital to drive development of its two inlicensed drug candidates APO010 and Irofulven. The aim of capital raised through the rights issue is first and foremost driving the development of OV’s third drug candidate LiPlaCisTM forwards, through a proof of concept.

Oncology Venture also intends to create one or more so called ”Special Purpose Vehicles” (SPV) by starting one or more international subsidiaries.

The rational behind creating an international subsidiary is to further extend OV’s product pipeline to more than five drug candidates. With the above mentioned procedure, Oncology Venture intends to test its most interesting inlicensed drug candidates for more than one indication. The board of Oncology Venture firmly believes enabling an extended pipeline by creating one or more SPV’s, will increase the company’s market potential. It will also bring additional value to OV’s shareholders by facilitating further financing of drug projects in the form of direct injection of international private and venture capital into the projects.

”Oncology Venture is currently in an important development stage. The work with our drug candidates APO010 and Irofulven proceeds according to the plan, financed by existing fundings. The now leading drug candidate LiPlaCisTM was recently inlicensed: a drug for which over 1000 Breast Cancer patients have already undergone the screening process. LiPlaCisTM is in the final stage of a promising clinical Phase 1 testing (all indications) and is going towards an extended, focused and prolonged proof-of-concept studie”, says Adjunct Professor Peter Buhl Jensen, M.D., and CEO of Oncology Venture.

”We have a current pipeline of products we firmly believe in, while at the same time our ambition is further increasing Oncology Venture’s potential through the planned creation of one or more SPV’s. Among other effects, creating such SPV’s will facilitate taking in international private and venture capital. By doing so, we will get the possibility to considerably increase the number of drug candidates in our pipeline, and to investigate several indications for each drug candidate”, Peter Buhl Jensen further comments.

About Oncology Venture Sweden AB

Oncology Venture Sweden AB is engaged in the research and development of anti-cancer drugs via its wholly owned Danish subsidiary Oncology Venture ApS. Oncology Venture holds a license to use Drug Response Prediction, DRP™, in order to significantly increase the probability of success in clinical trials. DRP™ has proven its ability to provide a statistically significant prediction of clinical outcomes from drug treatment in cancer patients in 29 of the 37 clinical studies that were examined. The Company uses a model that betters the odds compared to traditional pharmaceutical development. Instead of treating all patients with a particular type of cancer, patients are first screened, and only those who are most likely to respond to the treatment will be treated. Via a well defined patient group, risks and costs are reduced and the development process becomes more efficient.

Our current product portfolio of Drug Candidates: LiPlaCis, an intelligent liposomal formulation of cisplatin for Breast Cancer, Irofulven, developed from a fungus for Prostate Cancer and APO010, an immuno-oncology product for Multiple Myeloma.
